I’m a bit old to have gotten into the whole Pok?mon craze, although I have watched plenty of the cartoon series, so I’m well aware that Gary Oak is Ash’s main/most dickish rival. I don’t know if this a celebrate of the 4chan meme or just people who love Gary fucking Oak, although I kind of hope it’s the latter. Either way, anytime anyone can combine Pok?mon and massive amounts of profanity, I will post it on Topless Robot. Bonus points if you can do it in the form of a song. Thanks to Mikedefault for the tip.
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
