It's League of Extraordinary Bloggers time once again!!! This week's assignment had me really scratching my head.
All the places I thought of first were dangerous as hell. The Thundercat's lair? That place gets infiltrated like every other episode.
If you're a villain... I want you inside of me. |
Hey! I can see my house from-- oh. |
I also ruled out the Bat Cave, Castle Grey Skull, 1428 Elm Street in Springwood, Ohio, the TARDIS, the Millenium Falcon, Camp Crystal Lake, a Pineapple Under the Sea, and several other pop-culture locales for various different life-threatening reasons.
Then I thought: Where better to spend the night than in the back of the good old Mystery Machine with my favorite team of teenage crime solving sleuths?
Cozy. |
Then I got thinking about the logisitics:
Too cozy. |
Then I got thinking about the pure fantasy:
Look at that giant set of... monsters above the van. |
Then I got thinking about dog poots.
What's in those Scooby snacks??? Wait... was that Shaggy? |
So I pretty much ruled out the Mystery machine as a viable sleepover spot. How do all those kids sleep in that van anyway? Is it like a clown car? Why are they homeless? What are they on the run from?
Then I finally thought of the bestest, coziest, happiest place I would want to spend the night. The safest, most innocent, least killed-in-my-sleep kind of place in all of pop culture:
C'mon. You had to know where this was going. |
123 Sesame Street! And not just ANY apartment in that building... but the Basement apartment, inhabited by Bert and Ernie! The only real danger I could think of would be getting carried away by Boogie-Woogie Sheep:
SHEEP! |
I'd roll out my sleeping bag on the floor (we are operating under the illusion that there is in fact a floor and not a sub-space inhabited by muppeteers) and doze the night away. In the morning I'd go visit my buddy Big Bird and fight crime with Super Grover.
AAH! Zombie! |
Where are the other members of the League sleeping over this week?
- Vikki Verka takes us on a tour of Darla Dimple's extravagant manse (from the animated film, Cat's Don't Dance)
