5 reasons why fruit flies rock or why i love the black bellied dew lover

  1. too small to be hit with a flyswatter.
  2. official name: drosophila melanogaster which is greek for black bellied dew lover
  3. fully grown in a week
  4. "females become receptive to courting males at about 8-12 hours after emergence" - omg - and that's without alcohol!
  5. their wings beat 220 times - per second.

it's true. wikipedia told me so.

given the stick figure porn....

bob goes under cover:









courtesy of ivillage's make over matic (which is only for the ladies - how sexist!). bob gets a new look. now the paparazzi will have a hard time finding him when the next scandal erupts.

shhh. don't tell.

bob on, um i mean, barbara on?

10.16.2007

bob *exposed*

it has come to our attention that naked pictures of bob have been circulating through the internet. we are shocked that people would want to post pictures like this:

have they no shame? please, if anyone spots a picture of bob out there - we beg you to let us know so that we can eliminate this stick figure porn. shameful.

get the skinny, rat on your neighbor, then move.

zip skinny that is.

everyone's a nosey neighbor. come on, you know you peek in the windows at night...no, i'm not gonna call it in - instead i am here to feed your addiction.

check out http://www.zipskinny.com/ put your zip code in, then put in your holier than thou brother in law's zip and compare. which neighborhood really is better? proof is in the pudding my friends.

let's say statistics aren't your thing. you are too busy being pissed off at the guy down the street who parks in front of your house - right after you shovel a foot of snow out of the space. then bob's got the answer for you as well http://www.rottenneighbor.com/ oh this concept is so sweet. based on google maps - it gives you the opportunity to bitch, moan and complain about your neighbors. everyone should know about the crazy house on the corner - dontcha think?

ok - so after cruising through the zip codes and checking on the hood - you decide it is time to move. wanting more than the basic mls realtor search - you head to craigslist - but it is all too much for you. calm down there johnny, there is a better way: http://www.housingmaps.com/ a crazy awesome site that combines our beloved google maps with craigslist. how freakin cool is that?

that's it boys and girls.

bob on!

supercalifragilisticexpealidocious

couldn't think of a subject. blog block. too much work and not enough play makes bob a dull boy.

so what about long words. spelling. seriously. if it weren't for spell check.

i know you know what i mean.

how about definite. how many times have you seen it definate? at this point, shouldn't it be changed? ooooh, another word pet peeve. who celebrates valentime's day? or goes to the liberry? wait - nevermind. it is a mute point.

ha ha ha ha

i gotta get out more.

bob vs. 100

bob's been chillaxing watching the telly. the other night it was 1 vs. 100.

the premise of this show is a 'mob' of 100 people fight to prove who is the bigger imbecile - the combined group or the contestant. bob could take em all. seriously though - a mob? make it more interesting...bring in the real mob.

the godfather, tony soprano, et al.

think of the possibilities. some questions could include:


what did al capone die from?

gunshots * syphillis * cancer * execution

who wrote the godfather?

puzo * brasi * gambino * santa

the execution of a member of the american mafia is called omerta.

true * false

you could study up by taking mafia quizzes online. once again, a google search revealed that bob isn't the only person looking for useless mob trivia. some of the best quizzes can be found at 123facts.com and allthetests.com.

better study up though - get it wrong and you might get whacked.

bob gets serious.

someone close to bob has ms. multiple sclerosis. a real bastard of a disease. with no known cause and no cure, it's here for the long haul. you might know someone who has it too.

the cliff notes version of ms: something is causing the coating around the nerves to be compromised. this leads to a disruption of the signal from brain to (fill in the blank, could be anywhere). sometimes this comes and goes, other times an attack starts and never stops. the results are ms symptoms. the list can be long or short, common ones include numbness, vision problems, muscle weakness, and fatigue. it could really be anything that your nerves control - think bladder control, phantom pain, swallowing - anything.

sometimes ms is invisible to the outside. with relapsing/remitting you can get lucky and go years without symptoms. but is that really lucky? is wondering all of the time if something is 'the next attack' really a good thing? is crying because your eye is twitching, knowing it signals the drop of the other shoe lucky? are medicines to slow the progression of ms really all that good - when the side effects reduce your quality of life?

bob doesn't think so. ms sucks.

for this reason, bob is giving a great big shout out to a bunch of lovely ladies who are organizing a new year's eve fundraiser for the national multiple sclerosis society. these ladies have ms. they hate ms. they want to find a cure for ms. let's help them.

www.apartyandapurpose.com (a party and a purpose dot com)

if you are in the dc area, attend. if not, donate. if unable to donate, spread the word.

in the contact area for the event site it says: "together we can move mountains".

bob on, my mountain moving friends, bob on.

bacon, oh the sweet meat of the pig.


smelling bacon. (not running from the cops) yum.

crunchy. salty. breakfast's saving grace. a reason to wake up in the morning. a cardiologists best marketing piece. fat, sodium, fiberless. mmmmm.

bob loves bacon. really. i should be kept away from farms. swine amour. long story. don't ask. imagine my surprise when i found out that other people love bacon too.

iheartbacon.com best. site. ever. i've already arranged to snag that url as soon as possible (which should be soon, as bobalicious as the site is - no new posts in quite a while, damn you bacon girl).


or what about robots delivering bacon in the am? is the future here now? baconrobots. their moto: because the only thing better than bacon is a hot animatronic lady to cook it for you. doood. rosie, let me lube you up.

the finale. why it's the bacon of the month club. seriously. start your christmas shopping early. this is it. the grand poobah of gifts. show someone you care today. send em dead pig.

sing with me....

bob's a weeeeeener!


we won, we won! it's award time here at abobaday. woo-hoo. we were sooooo flattered to have received our FIRST awards, ever, within minutes of each other. how freakin cool is that? seriously. i'm off to buy the lottery ticket - now.



without further ado. our first award is manly. chest thumpin, remote holding, sport watching, manly. it's blue. with a guitar. it is only for us guys. and it came from a real babe. cyberpenguin over at seecoreyrun was kind enough to bestow this bobalicious honor on us. and now we will pay it forward. the 3 winners are:
  • your relevent. bob digs the concept. the icon is cool. the english is wrong and i think that is what we love most. ok, the icon is really cool.
  • pointlessbanter. blog as stated. congrats are due, you should be proud.
  • D.C. over at boredom relief. cause seriously, we all could use a little relief, no?
there are 2 'awesome guy blogger' award rules: 1) bragging is encouraged. please link back to your name in lights to prove your manliness. 2) share the wealth. there's a ton of good blogs out there (and a bunch o crap too - but that's a different award), find a few and hit em up with the good stuff. first time is always free.

next up is our bodacious blog award. stay tuned.
bob on, my faithful followers, bob on. jam daddy out.

9.12.2007

just call me jam daddy.

jam daddy in the house.

yo yo yo.

that is my official rap star name according to: rapstarname.com

quite proud to be called jam daddy, i went on a search for lyrics. i found underground hip hop for dummies. perfect, just what jam daddy needs. i bob on over there and the secrets of the rap underworld are on display. A small sample:

"Lyrics: And my jam knock in the Mitsubishi Girls pee pee when they see me, Nava-hoes creep me in they tee pee As I lay down laws like I lay carpet Stop it - if you think your gonna make a profit

TRANSLATION:I enjoy playing my music loudly on my car stereo. Apparently, women enjoy this also because they become sexually aroused when they see me driving. Oddly enough, when I visit the Native American reservations, some of the more sexually promiscuous Indian women attempt to seduce me in their homes. Their intent is to divest me of my earnings. Such actions are unacceptable."

i'm off to get me some honies.

bob on, my friends. jam daddy out.

just a quickie...

had to post - we hit 50 votes.

bob on!!

seriously good quotes.

as we get ready to take pre-orders for the calendar (if you are super eager, send an email and let us know you want one!), the quotes are getting better and better. bobalicious even.

some of our recent favorites:
'i must procrastinate, immediately, without delay!' this was written by a true bob - bob t. from new yawk. it's good to be bob.

lisa, in san diego says 'but i don't want to be a pirate'. it seems her inner bob gets seasick. it's ok lisa, you don't have to wear the eye patch.

bill, also from san diego (hey maybe he is the one that wants lisa to be a pirate!) told us to 'build a bridge and get over it.'

let your bob free today

ask and ye shall receive.


apparently bob's got looks. style. charm.


we've had a shop over at cafe press for a bit, 'organic bob' was one of our favorites, but now we introduce our new smiley button!


wear it loud and wear it proud. everyone should have one. get em while they're hot.


bob on, proudly.


9.08.2007

fechr. thumbs up or down?

fechr. a new site to create buzz. the idea is they will redirect to one site each day. we've seen some good sites on there already, including one of our favorites (and yours i'm sure) bloggrrl. right now, you can get on the site by blogging about them. after that, there will be a fee to be featured.

bob thinks it is groovy.

what are you waiting for? get featured!

sucker for a free t.

you can win a funny t shirt over at everybody go to. all you need to do is write a post and your name is in the draw. how cool is that!

ok. that was a lame cut and paste. seriously though - contests are cool. tshirts are cool. nekkid is better though.

free bottle of country bob's all purpose sauce

bob likes free things. seriously, who doesn't? that is why this is a no brainer post.

a bob product that is free. hot damn. nirvana. i can hear the angels singing.

country bob's is offering up a coupon for a free bottle of their all purpose sauce. i don't know what they mean by all purpose...but perhaps you can let us know. does it make a good rib seasoning? car wash? laundry detergent?

hook yourself up with some now.

bob on.

we are seeing more and more quotes come in - with quite a few from our friends at ijoke.tv

ijokegorilla has sent in several - our favorite: walk softly and carry a big schtick!

labor day

is it better than smores day? what can be had by laboring? or not laboring? and is one day really worth it?

stick it to the man and take an extra day. your labor is worth more than 8 paid hours (well pretend it is). enjoy the day. grill outdoors. use the pool before it closes. sleep in. catch up on tivo. bob the day away.

bob is riding his bike (try to ignore the no leg thing) and surfing the web. we also updated some great new quotes on the main site.

what are you doing today? inquiring minds want to know. bob wants to know.

8.29.2007

boobs take over.

without beating the 'vote for bob' drum - it seems that the boobs have it. bob has slipped pages behind...

please, be a good bob, vote today

8.22.2007

newsflash

bob beats boob!

i knew we were better. come on bob is all natural. defies gravity. wholesome family fun.

sniff...sniff... thank you all. without your votes it would never have happened.

i am so proud.

bob on, my patriotic voters, bob on.

8.21.2007

bob is evolving...

we have been around for about 2 weeks now. we have lofty goals. cue the angels singing "aaaahhhhh" a 2008 calendar "aaaahhhhh". to do that we need, um 350+ quotes (we haven't ironed out the weekend issue - slash the saturday and sunday or give each day their own page).

we have just over 100.

100 bobalicious quotes. 100 ideas thrown into the proverbial pot. 100 people who think that bob is cool - or just wanna see their name in print. bob doesn't care. either way works. it's all good.

one of our first is still our favorite - sheep are dumb. it is rich. nonsensical. clean. simple. bob like.

we are looking at where to go from here. how does a smiley face grow? do we add a body? a nose? friends? do we advertise? and if so, how? the usual links, print media, etc. just keep plugging away with an odd sense of humor, an unusual quote collecting hobby and posts that don't really go with each other - but because of that - go together perfectly?

bob is learning the way of the world. will he do it in time for the 08 publishing deadline? will it matter?

bob on, my friends, bob on.

8.20.2007

help us beat the boobs.

bob is currently listed thirteenth on humor 100's list. say it with boobs is listed 10th.

is bob really better with an exta 'o'?

vote for us. please.

bob rants

it had to happen. enough with the bob is always happy and funny. and a little bit odd.

bob gets a bit of, ahem, fan mail. most of it is pleasant. bob photos. quotes. other bob sites. we also get a few of the 'i just learned what f*&k is and i am proud' emails. whatever. congrats to you. but the one that gets bob's goat is the 'i don't get it' email.

it seems. that in this world there are some people that just need to make sense of things. bob is not something to overthink. there is nothing to understand. bob is bob. forwards and backwards.

gretchen in falls church gets it - sheep are dumb
anonymous in santa rosa gets it - don't lose your flip flops on a plane
bob in the computer room gets it - every bob will have zen one day
paul in ny gets it - please understand that on the inside of this two dimensional face i'm really unstable..

ridiculous. nonsense. makes you laugh. that is what bob is.

bob is cool. bob is bobilicious. bob is a fad. a figment. a novelty. bob is a legal stress release. bob is whatever you want him to be.

don't try to understand bob. just be bob.

bob on, my friends. bob on.

8.15.2007

new quotes up

bob fans should be proud - we had to sort through many bobalicious quotes to update the page.

check to see if yours is there.

while we love honoring new bobs, it seems a shame to knock off the previous quotes. would you be interested in an archive of past quotes? after all, sheep are still dumb.

bob on, my friends

8.13.2007

calendar countdown begins...

we are getting close.

lots of good quotes out there - we have begun picking the best of the best for publishing. but we need a few more winners.

help spread the word. submit your quote and then pass the link along to your friends/family.

thanks friends and as always, bob on.

bob says: daddy day camp is 2.5 out of 4 bobs

went to the movies today. brought the baby bobs.

say daddy day camp. it was appropriate for school aged bobs and older. no foul language, some potty humor, mild violence (think paintball and arrows).

it was as underwhelming as the first one (daddy day care). wasn't bad. definitely nothing to write home about (now write in a blog is a different story).

a quote came in during the movie: tim in escondido, ca said:
the friendliest animal in the world is a wet dog.

how true.

bob on my friends.

8.11.2007

bob is....

a noun.

a verb.

a palindrome.

a nickname.

a boob with one less 'o'.

a celebrity.

a wanna be.

you?

bob on, my friend.

8.10.2007

bobs speak out

got some new quotes up. much praise to the bobs.

sheep are still dumb.

bob on my friends.

happy national smores day!

i am so excited.

thought the day would never get here.

national smores day. the dessert trifecta. taste bud paradise.

wow, picking who gets august 10th on the calendar will be tough.

any bob quotes out there that could hold a candle to the sweet goodness of graham, chocolate and marshmallow?

mmmmmm.......

bob on!
