Welcome back to the BRB'U Fight Club, designed to determine just who can claim the title of Ultimate Badass. Yesterday's was a close fight, with the winner only scrapping by with a single point lead. Props go to both the victor himself: Mike Tyson, but to his worthy rival as well; Godot.
And now for Round 2! The matchup:
Maddox vs. Keyboard Cat
Maddox
(From The Internet)
Why he's a badass
First off he seems to regularly dresses like some sort of flamboyant pirate, which is awesome in it of itself. George Ouzounian (real name, no gimmick) is the purveyor of the self described Best Page in the Universe in which he humorously bashes everything from Lord of the Rings to pedophiles to children artworks and crocs (which I whole hardheartedly agree with. So tacky He's a chauvinist on the level of Iron Mike, who wrote the very book on manliness (seriously, it's called The Alphabet of Manliness) and generally just does whatever he wants, often to hilarious and badass results. Plus the guys at Encyclopedia Dramatica hate him, and that has to be a good sign.
Why he's not a badass
As hilarious as a lot may be, some just help but come across as whiny flaming, and he does seem to have fallen off the radar as well, with his site last update being from December of last year. Also he likes Ctrl + Alt + Delete, so take from that what you will.
Keyboard Cat
(From The Internet)
Why he's a badass
Charlie Schmidt's musical genius of a pet, Fatso the Cat (real name, no gimmick) is a renown pianist whose first video launched him into internet stardom, where he continues to play off some of the funniest failures the internet has to offer (even playing off the Hindenburg itself once.) The meme hasn't gotten old yet, and still remains just as awesome as on day one, an impressive feat for a live animal, and even more so for one that's dead. That's right, Keyboard Cat is still exerting his will from beyond the grave, just like Liquid Snake, making him an indisputable badass.
Why he's not a badass
Call me biased, but it's hard to think of these. The only conceivable one is the sad thought that eventually he'll go the way of Rick Rolling and Shoop Da Whoop. But when that day comes, I think Keyboard cat himself will know that "that'll do Keyboard Cat, that'll do.
Who's your choice? Cast your votes and check back tomorrow for round 3, in the mean time, if you'd like to help in any way in the form of pictures or writing up these summaries for some of the charecters, I could really use a hand. The full list is:
Barack Obama
Oprah
Peter Francisco
Hard Gay
Fyre
Makunouchi Ippo
Takamura
Don Fransisco
Kool Aid Man
Donald Duck
Mr Grey
Chooly
Simon
Liquid Snake
Edward Norton
Leonard Nimoy
Audie Murphy
The Pyro
Oscar Wilde
Franklin Delano Roosevelt
Sho Minamimoto
Frog/Glenn
Jack Churchill
Chuck Yeager
Jim West
Thich Quang Duc
With me really needing help with Makunouchi Ippo, Takamura, Hard Gay, Sho Minamimoto, and Simon, since I don't really know them Any contributions would be greatly appreciated though!
Enjoy!
