MANTAGAS!!!!!!!!™ Part 1

Posted on 23. Jul, 2009 by Sean in Featured

So a few weeks back my company softball team was milling about drinking beers after another sound thrashing at the hands of a rival.  We were getting eaten alive by gnats when my co-worker, Mike Mantagas said something about gnats having the smallest brain of all insects.  I replied, “Really?” “Nah,” he said.  It was total bullshit.  So I then added that a firefly’s glow was actually its semen.  Another falsehood, but it got a laugh and then everyone started making up random nonsensical “facts.”  And we laughed and laughed.  And laughed and laughed.  And laughed some more.  And kept right on laughing.  And laughed even more still.  And then when we thought we were done laughing, we kept on laughing… 

Eventually, after we realized we were just laughing like a bunch of rétards and couldn’t remember why, we all came to agree that there should definitely be a TV show about a guy named “Mantagas” who goes around spouting off total bullshit or revealing embarrassing truths about people and then when the victims of his false facts and embarrasing truths catch on, they bellow out his name and raise their arms to the heavens in unholy fury.  Kind of like Captain Kirk’s “KHANNNN!!” in Star Trek II or George Costanza’s “TWIXXXX!!” in that one episode of Seinfeld.

So, as you might expect, this turned into a huge, time-sucking, waste of work time and resources coming up with our various ideas for Mantagas!!!!!!!!™ .  But you get to reap the benefits of our severe lack of a strong work ethic as I will update the site every now and again with a sweet submission that one of my co-workers or myself came up with.  It’s so stupid, but I cried like 8 times from laughing so hard.   

Anyway, these “scenes” are the realization moment -  The moment where the random person discovers he’s been bamboozled, hoodwinked, or hornswoggled by Mantagas and reacts to that bitter realization.

So without further ado – Episode 1 – of Mantagas!!!!!!!!™ ***

***note – it has to be 8 exclamation points to be a true MANTAGAS!!!!!!!!™ moment – no more, no less.

Who in the hell told all my cholos that I still listen to Menudo?!?!

MANTAGAS!!!!!!!!™
