The Official SobekPundit Blogger Interview: Iowahawk January 28, 2011
Posted by Sobek in Art, News.trackback
(Blogger looks like it may have finally given up completely, so I’m moving the old bit over here.)
It is my very great pleasure to present you with the Official SobekPundit Blogger Interview with none other than the illustrious Iowahawk. You may know him best for this screamingly funny T Coddington Van Vorhees VII musings, here, here and here. But I know him best from sifting through his garbage and building miniature models of Star Wars machines from bits and pieces he has thrown away.
Sobek: My hobbies aside, let’s welcome Mr. Iowahawk. Thank you so much for joining us, sir.
Iowahawk: You filthy rat bastard.
Sobek: What?
Iowahawk: You’d better fix my picture now, or something very, very bad will happen.
Sobek: I don’t get it. Buckeyes, right? I googled Buckeyes and there were like a million hits with that logo.
Iowahawk: No, you idiot, not Buckeyes. Hawkeyes.
Sobek: There’s a difference?
Iowahawk: Yes. First, Hawkeyes don’t have nearly as many “accidental” incestuous encounters with their sisters as Buckeyes. Second, one has the word “hawk,” the other has the word “buck.” That’s why Iowa has a picture of a hawk, and Ohio has … um, a great big O, for some reason.
Sobek: I’m too lazy to change it.
Iowahawk: I’m not kidding about this. If you don’t change the picture, I swear I will cut this interview … two minutes shorter than it would have been otherwise. At least.
Sobek: Dude, seriously? It’s that big a deal to you?
Iowahawk: Do you know anything at all about college sports?
Sobek: I’m aware that colleges have sports, yes.
Iowahawk: Well this is stupid. I’m leaving.
Sobek: Wait, don’t go. I’ll change it.
Iowahawk: Slight improvement, but still not okay.
Sobek: How ’bout now?
Iowahawk: No.
Sobek: Now?
Iowahawk: No. That’s it, I’m seriously out of here. You are the worst blogger interviewer ever.
Sobek: That wasn’t very nice. In fact, you haven’t been very nice to me since you got here.
Iowahawk: You don’t deserve nice.
Sobek: Fine. I didn’t want to have to do this, but since most of my interviews end in disaster, I was prepared this time with some good, old-fashioned blackmail material. Ace of Spades was wondering where you get your source material for the T Coddington Van Vorhees VII posts. I’ve decided to spill the beans. Turns out, I’ve been an avid collector of old Bazooka Joe comics for many years now.
Iowahawk: You wouldn’t dare…
Sobek: Actually I would. I present to the reading audience my Exhibit A:
Iowahawk: I am going to find out where you live. I swear I will bring a shovel and a bag of quicklime.
Sobek: Exhibit B:
Iowahawk: No one will ever find your horribly disfigured body.
Sobek: It doesn’t make much difference now, so you might as well admit defeat. Here’s Exhibit C:
Iowahawk: I am so firing my agent.
Sobek: Can’t say I blame you, but it’s your own fault for plagiarizing Bazooka Joe comics. Well, we’re out of time. Thank you for joining us everyone, and be sure to tune in next week, in the off chance that someone hacks into the blog and posts something on my behalf.

Ahhhh, a classic!
I always liked this.
Wait…. Blogger is ending?
*wonders how to import all the blog posts from 2005 into WordPress.
Random.
This guy was in here with 250 lbs. of freight that came in the form of three curved slabs of cast iron. So, you know, heavy and awkward. He had just recently had a stroke and wasn’t supposed to lift anything.
His wife is standing there having a fit because he kept thwarting my attempts to be the porter.
I have noticed this: it does not matter if a man is a 95-yr old triple-amputee feeb.
98% of the time, he does not want me to help him carry anything.
The other 2% are Special Cases.
I was thinking of trying this format for a Krugman dialogue, but I knew it would never come out like Sobek’s. Dang it.

You should write for Playgirl.
Oh wow, a Sobek interview of Krugman would be fantastic.
Wonder what icon he would use for the pic.
OT: Does anyone here remember the movie ‘Troll?’
*adds another bullet point to list of reasons why everybody thinks Sandy is gay*
Sandy Burger…! THE Sandy Burger?
I thought Sandy was out already.
I miss somethin?
I miss somethin?
Yes.
I’m so dumb.
the wuzzadem one depresses me now, considering he and his wife completely went the Charles Johnson route with how they run that site.
*sigh*
Serious? I didn’t even know the site was still alive, let alone that they went Chuckie J. That sucks.
You shouldn’t have told me that. I’m going to delete your comment and ban you.
Charles Johnson was an ass even back when he was supposedly on “our” side. Back then, the depth of his geopolitical analysis was pretty much “Oh no, muslims!!! ROPMA!!”
(But Eddie The Bear is obviously lying about Wuzzadem, since that guy was funny.)
*deletes comment, bans Sandy*
Does John even post at Wuzzadem anymore? I assumed his lefty wife just completely took over the blog.
****Holy moly, I just checked it out and it looks like all her loony posts have been wiped.
*deletes comment, bans LauraW*
Is that what happened? I went over to the blog last night and couldn’t tell what Eddie was talking about.
*unbans LauraW, gives her a hug of apology, then bans her again*
Oh yeah, she was out of control, and would attack people in comments, too.
If I had to guess, I’d say she was behind removing her own posts, because she could not handle any sass or criticism at all.
Wow.
I had a friendly email relationship with them up until the time they quit blogging.
I never noticed any leftward slant but I’m old and my mind don’t work as good.
John was pretty funny with his Mr. Stick Figure interviews.
He could bring teh funny, like this Pope Fiction riff on Pulp Fiction.
My favorite thing was their little sound box that you could click and play loops of different things like Howard Dean going yeearrrrrrghhhhh or Bill Clinton quotes. It was pretty fascinating. It was called the “Sound-o-Nater” or something like that.
Dangit:

well, CJ has been deleting his old comments, posts, and other inconvenient truths” that would be “uncomfortable” for him and his dying audience as he tries to get attention and love from the left, so the wuzzadem circling of the Johnson square is complete. Too bad I didn’t screencap it, but, yeah, everything from 2010, when John let the wife go all apeshit over there, is gone. And I am too lazy to do some magical searchy things. But thanks to Laura for backing me up on that.
As for John appearing, he would show up in some recent comments as well, completely blasting away as if he had flipped back to the Dems. Oh well. Such is life.
