Speculations

You know what I was thinking about today? We don't spend any time speculating on the private lives of the characters in the Toon. Other forums do this (At least, I'm led to believe they do by the likes of self aware comics like that Elf Only Inn one...I'm not on any other forums but this one), and I'm concerned that we might be falling behind on our duties as googly fangirl/boys.

I'll start the ball rolling. Who's the hottest character? I think it's Dead Lenin. Sexy goatee and all. And I dig the bald head. :)

wow...i'd forgotten all about dubya and al....
so if i speculate on whether kerry or edwards is more toonbotian, will i be accused of meddling in politics?

Only if you forward such theorizing to their respective campaign headquarters, and we wind up seeing campaign ads such as "Bush Steals From Dead Communists" or "Vote for Kerry: Not Just Another Floating Head."

Re: Speculations
We should try to get Lenin elected!
I can see the slogans now! Why Steal From Dead Communists When We Can Elect One?
and
Vote For Lenin: Not Such a Floating Head!
Who's with me?

Dynastic Warlords Got You Down? End Them Now! Vote Lenin!
I'll admit it: I've caught a real political hunger this year.

emsworth! these are brilliant!
i'm going to send them off at once.
"vote for kerry; not just another floating head" - i can see the campaign buttons already.....
now if only we could get bush on stealing actual dead communists, rather than just from them....don't suppose he's planning to visit the kremlin anytime soon.
