ROFL!!!

Make it shine, doll boy!

I'm ready for this road season to wrap up. Bring on Cross!

This gives me an idea

Can I interview Barbie Barbie sometime?

Sure.

That is, I don’t mind if he doesn’t.

King of Style doesn’t take anything too far. (Least of all, speaking in the third person.)

by iamtedking on Dec 22, 2009 4:28 PM EST reply actions  

Shouldn't that be first person plural

as in, “We are not amused”? Although, now that we have your attention, we certainly hope you are…

Welcome! Loved your interview the other day.

Welcome King

One day you’re in crayon, the next in Barbie. Where can this lead?

I don’t know. But somehow it will all come back to cycling.

lol

The only pro cyclist on the planet to get crayon’d and barbie’d in the same week.

Welcome to the romper room ;-)

The actual Ted?

I am in awe. Welcome to the party.

by Albertina on Dec 23, 2009 4:41 AM EST up reply actions  

seriously

That is very good line.

Allthough as a front page subtitle

It could give newcomers a wrong impression…

Ha! Srsly.

Hadn’t checked to see that it really is the new tag line until after Majope’s comment below.

If I may say so,

fucking brilliant.

Aren't we forgeting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa

Ha ha

I was afraid the punishment was going to be for wearing something else. Not cycling related.

Chapeau

How the hell did you find a Barbie Viking Helmet? On second thought, maybe I don’t want to know. Given that my team kit, and just about all my gear, is black, I should probably just keep my head down.

I love the crown

I hope to see that in use more often. We need a Ted KOS barbie Stat.

by Douglas Ansel on Dec 22, 2009 6:25 PM EST reply actions  

Once again, fantastic work!

I personally like the idea of Thor walking around w/ a viking hat on. And in the world of whimsy, there’s no reason to explain!

by WaterGirl on Dec 22, 2009 6:56 PM EST reply actions  

ROFL

So good. Thor is a very beautiful Barbie.

by Jen See on Dec 22, 2009 8:29 PM EST reply actions  

Ohh this is a Gold Medal Performance

Awesome Majope…. I cannot wait to see who else appears in future eps…

Still want a HH Barbie though, Are Orders being taken yet…

More brilliance!

Thor with the helmet is priceless. And “Make it shine, doll boy!” Oh man…. Too good!

by Veloki on Dec 22, 2009 8:59 PM EST reply actions  

Classic,

another great job! Thanks.

"Make it shine, doll boy!"

I think that needs to be chalked on the streets for ToC.

by lyne on Dec 22, 2009 9:53 PM EST reply actions  

amazing.

you are quite the talent, majope.

by yeehoo on Dec 23, 2009 4:43 AM EST reply actions  

+1

Stuck in an airport thousands of kilometres from home for the third day running. This actually made me smile, which is no mean feat right about now.

“Make it shine, doll boy!” is truly one for the ages.

by Krtek on Dec 23, 2009 11:13 AM EST up reply actions  

Aww, look...

PdC tag line! I know I’ve made it now.

Thanks, everybody—glad you’re having fun, too.

by majope on Dec 23, 2009 7:04 AM EST reply actions  

Ha! :-)

I tried to restrain myself. And failed.

by Jen See on Dec 23, 2009 12:10 PM EST up reply actions  

Yah

What’s your lifetime restraint batting average, Gav? My guess is something in the low teens.

He's back!

The man with the best signature in PdC-land. Just in time for the TDU build-up.

Football is a game, cycling a sport.

Just showed this to my brother

He’s decided to start checking in the cafe just because of you Majope
