A member of Ohio's 5694th National Guard Unit in Mansfield legally changed his name to a Transformers toy.
That's all anyone needs to see.

Where's Rhinox when we need him? He would've talked some sense into these children.

What the hell is wrong with people these days? If your job is to write, shouldn't you be proficient at it?

Hehe. That is pretty fucking funny. Now Saddam needs to change his name to Megatron. Now what should Bush change his name to?

I literally had to applaude this guy when I read that, that is so fucking cool.

EDIT! HOLY SHIT! When I minimized that article to my desktop, my comp lagged a little bit and where ever a file name on my desktop was what was on the website was sort of showing over that and it said Web Terror. kinda freaked me out.

I ws hoping for a parody too....

If I were writing a pardoy I would have used the constructicons or Dinobots.

In other news today the Dinobots were deployed to the middle east today. When asked to comment, the commanding officer Grimlock had this to say.

"Me smash Baghdad, Me Grimlock most badd ass in middle east! Republican guard not as tough as me Grimlock!"

Further plans by Cybertronian militaries in the Middle East include the deployment of the Constructicons by theDecipticon faction. Megatron has deployed the Constructicons because Devastator is "the most effective weapon in our arsenal, plus, the inherent capabilities of the separate constructicons will makethe rebuilding of Iraq into a Decepticon stronghold much easier."

however megatron's plan was not without critics. One critic, identified only as "Scarstream" claimed tat Megatron's plan would "Fail utterly" and that soon "I will become leader of the decipticons."

This isn't character worship. It's slander of character. If you're going to change your name to Optimus Prime, at least have some sort of achievement to deserve it.

Ok, it's official. I don't know whether to be embarrassed or root for the guy. Admittedly, changing your name to a toy or a cartoon character is pretty messed up. However, Prime was a pretty cool character. A great leader and definitely a father figure.

And don't diss the Dinobots. Grimlock may have had the speech patterns of a Neanderthal and the intelligence of a brick, but he was as tough as that same brick and never backed down. :mrgreen:

I met that guy once. He's pretty reasonable. IIRC, he was a fire fighter, is married, and has three kids.
