Justin Bieber Retiring and Another Miserable Christmas Comes and Goes

HELLO  YES   THIS IS DOG gif (via the internets)

Hello.  Yes, this is Jimmy Fungus...  and I have returned with yet another exciting blog post to titilate your senses and tantalize your brains.    Today as you are reading this, I have barely made it through another pitiful Christmas holiday season (which is not entirely over yet, I do admit this).

newly invented "SON I AM NOT DISAPPOINT...I AM DEVASTATE" meme

Ya know, actually, I am quite thankful for everything I have, so I am being a bit facetious as I speak to you in this rather melancholic mood today.  But that being as Lord Throckmorton Fungusleaves would say "neither here, nor there", let's put an end to my mindless chuntering and get on with this post...



Okay, so as you have probably have heard, Justin Bieber announced his retirement Christmas Eve on twitter,  an announcement which seems to be coinciding with the release of his "Believe" movie.

Reaction to this craziness is mixed, as Justin's many haters rejoice, and his many fans (needless to say) are in a more sullen mood about the whole thing.


In fact "sullen" is a massive understatement.  Many of Justin's beliebers are in fact...  DEVASTATED.

newly invented DON'T LET THEM SEE YOU CRY, OLD BOY Justin Bieber is retiring meme (ft. shibe doge)

unhappy doge

However, there is one thing I can state with unequivocal positivity, is that no one out there in the peanut gallery is wondering what I,  investigative reporter Jimmy Fungus, think about this burning social issue.  Whatevers!  Alright...so....here are.... my thoughts...

Giorgio Tsoukalos

Wow.  I have kind of been disturbed by the extraordinary level of hatred which has been heaped upon this Justin Bieber by the horrible anti-Rebecca Black media as of late.


It seems like this mass media machine bulids some of these stars up, simply for the fun of tearing them down...


And very few of your favorite pop stars are immune to this phenomenon...

newly invented Taylor Swift/ Bob's Burgers/ "You Belong With Me" gif

I even read an anti-Taylor Swift essay on tumblr the other day that was so replete with hatred and vitriol it could have been penned by Lucifer himself.  So, yeah....  maybe Justin thinks if he leaves show biz, and perhaps moves to a moose farm in Montana, it will dump some liquid ice on these fiery, hot flames of hate that have been pointed at him so friggin' heartlessly.  Quite frankly, there are plenty of evil people in the world much more deserving of this kind of disdain than Taylor Swift and the Biebs...  for example, there's Hitler, Charles Manson, Kim Jong Un, Chuck Woolery (just kidding, Chuck)... the list goes on and on...

confession bear actually kind of likes Justin Bieber (via the internets)

Uhhh...what else  did I want to say?  Oh yeah.  Of course there are other explanations for this unlikely turn of events.  This could be a big fat publicity stunt to help promote Bieber's new move "Believe."  Usually, when superstars say they are "retiring" what they really mean is they want some time off.  Such as when Michael Jordan retired, and then came back to win more championships.  Elton John announced his retirement in the late 70s...a retirement which only lasted about 6 months.  Similarly, Cat Stevens announced he was leaving the music business at the height of super stardom, and didn't return for decades (then under the name "Yusuf Islam").

Muhammad Ali announced his retirement in an interview with Howard Cosell, but that was far from being the last we heard from him...

float like a butterfly...  sting like the Biebs... the amazing reflexes of Muhammad Ali

So friends, what I am saying is... it's difficult for the average human in the streets to know what is going on here behind the scenes.  No one probably really knows other than Justin himself (and perhaps his manager Scooter Braun).  It could be a massive hoax to garner publicity.  Bieber may truly need a break from all the madness to "get his head together."

Or perhaps Justin Bieber is a space alien who has been summoned by his galactic overlords to return to his home planet...

newly invented ancient aliens expert Giorgio Tsoukalos meme

Just kidding, with that last snarky remark.  I wasn't taking a shot at Justin.  It was just an excuse to work Giorgio Tsoukalos  into this post again...


So, in conclusion...it doesn't really matter what I think about any of this, does it? It is matter for Justin, his family, friends... his manager Scooter Braun... whoever Justin sold his soul to, to become famous...  the evil corporations that make 900 gorillion dollars a minute off the Biebs...etc...and so forth... It is a matter that all of these different factions and entities will have to sit down and discuss amongst themselves, in order to do what is both proper and fair...  what is best for Justin...  and for his future.



Hopefully, when decisions are made, these different parties will take into account the thoughts and feeling of the beliebers.  Yeah, but...  I dono...

"#Hashtag" w/ Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake AND Shane Dawson's Lady Gaga "Applause" spoof (REVIEWS & REACTIONS by our beloved Wilford Fungus and the highly esteemed Lord Throckmorton Fungusleaves)

the "deal with it" girl gif from the internets

So, it came to pass that the first ever episode of Friday Open Forum Video Discussion (Or Whatever It's Called) was produced, thanks to the combined efforts of the beloved Wilford Fungus, and the very distinguished Lord Throckmorton Fungusleaves III.  The title of this tremendous contribution to the youtube community is "Hashtag" w/ Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake and Shane Dawson's Lady Gaga "Applause" spoof REVIEWS.




As you may have gathered by now, the topics of this very first episode of the Friday Forum Open Video Discussion and Round-Table (Or Whatever It's Called) are 2 very important videos of the internets  "#Hashtag" with Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga - Applause (Official) PARODY.

the I HAZ QUESTION cat

At this point, you may have a question, or you may be wondering, about some of the material I have been posting in this entry...

I HAS THE DUMB dumb cat meme

Usually, the memes and pictures I post are related, or have something to do with the topic of my blog.  My brain has kind of stopped working so I am just sort of posting randomly at this point...

THEY SEE US ROLLIN' THEY BE HATIN' haters gonna hate meme

So, in conclusion, let me just say...try to watch the video...  and try to leave a comment on your thoughts and feelings regarding that video.

ancient aliens expert Giorgio Tsoukalos (just because)

Once again, thank you all, and please remember to support your local zoo.

theatrical movie poster for Tommy Wiseau's "The Room"

Stay classy, Chicago!

I don't know where to begin...topics discussed include: JESUS, TAYLOR SWIFT, CHARLES Z, HITLER, LAINA WALKER (Overly Attached Girlfriend), JIMMY TATRO, "IN THE WAY" GUY (internet meme), GIORGIO TSOUKALOS, NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON, HANK HILL, HOMER SIMPSON, South Korean rapper PSY, and TONY DANZA (not nescessarily in that order)

"GOOD AFTERNOON.. DO YOU HAVE A MINUTE OR TWO TO TALK ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST" meme (via the internets)

Oh my goodness!  There is so much I have to cover in this post, I almost want to collapse from exhaustion just thinking about it...but I can't let that happen...  I won't let that happen..., and I CAN'T let that happen.  I opened with the "do you have a moment to talk about Jesus" meme, because I made a video about it.  But, I don't really feel like talking about that anymore...  I am just praying to Jesus that I somehow make it through today's lengthy blog post.  You can pray too if you like.  Or just look at the pictures.  Whatever.

Hitler is down in the dumps after getting dumped by Taylor Swift

Welp, have you heard about this situation with this Charles Z fellow, who won the "Taylor Swift's Biggest Fan" contest...  only to have the contest cancelled, and his prize taken from him (or something like that)?  Anywho, it is one of the topics of the latest episode of "Current Events Rodeo Round-Up" (this time hosted by the resident comedian of JimmyFungus.com Chucky C. Chuckles).    (Also covered is that exciting viral vid "How German Sounds Compared to Other Languages"...  yeah, all the detail is in the video description over at http://youtube.com/jimmyfungus, which is MY official youtube channel.) 

I am just going to post the video and hope that maybe you watch it...




 And that wasn't the only video of great importance I made this week.  It seems that youtube superstars Jimmy Tatro and "Overly Attached Girlfriend" Laina Walker reunited to make a video entitled "Normally Attached Girlfriend." 

Laina Walker and painting via her youtube channel Laina

I hope you didn't tire yourself out watching the "Normally Attached Girlfriend" video, because I really wanted you to watch Lord Throckmorton Fungusleaves' review.  Besides, he pretty much explains everything anyway...








Now for the bad news.  It seems that the Fungus Army has let me down once again.  And that is fine.  You can live with yourselves crushing my hopes and dreams all the time, Fungus Army.  But you didn't just let me down...

You let Tony Danza down...

"What Would Danza Do?" inspirational meme

Remember in my last post when I asked you all to use the #WWDD and #WhatWouldDanzaDo hashtags, and disseminate the motivational message of Tony Danza far and wide to all corners of the interwebs.  Well, did anyone even bother to do it, but me??


I think you kids need a pep talk, so I tube chopped Tony Danza's inspirational speech from his wonderful movie "The Garbage Picking Field Goal Kicking Philadelphia Phenomenon" for you. So, just watch it, unless you're too lazy to even do that much.  Good grief...






Okay.  Don't feel too bad if you didn't watch the whole Tony Danza speech.  Actually, I just kinda had it on in the background while I was cooking up some Dorito and Cheeto casserole myself.  Maybe I will even watch the whole movie later.  But what I HAVE done is make some new exciting memes, so you can just look at them.  Yay!


Yes.  This new meme called In the Way Guy is sweeping the internets as we speak.  "In the Way" Guy  is sort of becoming the Mckayla Maroney of our generation.  

I am hoping just a tiny portion of "In the Way" Guy's internet fame will ooze down to me, so go and take a look at the memes I created.

"In the Way" Guy gets in the way of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker having a light saber duel

"In the Way" Guy gets in the way of Jesus and the Apostles (see, it's funny because Jesus said He is "the way")

"In the Way" Guy and man being chased by hippo

"In the Way" guy is in Kim Kardashian's way

Justin Bieber spits on fans and "In the Way"guy

And, I wouldn't even bother to bring up this other new meme, except for the fact I have been planning on unveiling it for weeks, and well...  I'll just do it now.  So, let's get this over with.  It is sort of a mega meeting of memes colliding.  It stars Giorgio Tsoukalos, Neil deGrasse Tyson,  Homer Simpson, and aliens...

new "i'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens" meme

Thank God.  We are finally almost done.  In conclusion, I will just tell you support your local zoo, and to stay classy, Chicago.

Charles Z and a reluctant Taylor Swift   #Justice4Charles

Zayn Malik of One Direction Picks a Fight with Bullying, Tommy Wiseau Saves the World, Hitler Gives Another Evil Speech (also toilets and sloths)

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY:  HERE IS A PICTURE OF CAPTAIN AMERICA PUNCHING HITLER IN THE FACE (via quest-one.com)

Hi, kids.  Welpers, it is not July 4th.  But I didn't post anything on JimmyFungus.com on July 4th, so I have to wish you a Happy 4th of July today.  Unless, you are reading this from Soviet Russia, or another such country, and then July 4th means nothing to you.  Of course, I am just being silly.  I know full well the Soviets are no longer in power, but as Lord Throckmorton Fungusleaves would say...  that is neither here nor there.

new Zayn Malik of One Direction "I KNOW THAT FEEL, BRO" anti-bullying meme

What is both here and there, is this new effort that One Direction is taking to try to stamp out bullying.  They are making public service announcements about it, and doing all sorts of crazy stuff that has all the bullies out there quite nervous.

Perhaps more importantly, One Direction is standing up for the victims of bullying as well...

Charlie Brown's "FAILURES"  (the Better Book Titles meme - from the internets)

So who better to give you an in depth report on all of us than our very own resident comedian of JimmyFungus.com, Chucky C. Chuckles?  Anywho, just watch the video, and you will understand what I mean...

Johnny Cash "Sh*t was so cash" meme (from the internets)

And while your spirits are hopefully still uplifted from hearing about the anti-bullying activism of One Direction, it is a good time to talk about one of the most inspiring figures of our time... the wonderful Tommy Wiseau.

"If a lot of people loved each other... the world would be a better place to live." ~ words of wisdom from Tommy Wiseau (one of the most inspiring figures of our current age.)

And besides, it is still the 10th anniversary of the release of Tommy Wiseau's classic film "The Room" (sort of)...   So to honor that, I made another Tommy Wiseau video at my youtube channel.  The title of this video is "Loaf is Blonde" and it pays homage to the classic scene in "The Room" where Tommy coins the immortal phrase... "Loaf is blonde."  Just watch below, and see what I am talking about here:

"I don't make the rules!  I just think them up, and write them down." ~ Eric Cartman.

And I began this post with Hitler, so that is a perfect segue into my next subject, which is Hitler, and the video I made concerning this very evil guy at my youtube channel.  The title of this video is "Hitler's Most Evil Speech" or something like that.  Just watch below...

Giorgio Tsoukalos

Above you are seeing a picture of Ancient Aliens Expert Giorgio Tsoukalos...  which is a perfect segue into the next exciting thing I am going to tell you about it, which is my other latest video at the youtube.  A couple of weeks ago, I posted a vid called "DON'T FLUSH THOSE TOILETS!"  Welp, this new vid is a sequel to that video and it is called "DON'T FLUSH THOSE TOILETS!!  (extended version!!)."  So why don't you do yourself a favor and watch it below...






You are probably wondering what else I have been up to besides, all this stuff I already told you about.  Well, just humor me and pretend that you are, because I want to tell you this.

People seem to like sloths a lot, and they also like Darth Vader quite a bit as well....

So, I made this new meme with Darth Vader and the sloth astronaut...or he is also called "space sloth" or "slothtronaut."  It is below, so just take a look at it.  It will only take you a second or two of your time to do that.

Darth Vader vs.  Astronaut Sloth/ Slothstronaut meme

Alright... well, I wanted to talk about more...  but this is truthfully all I have for you today.  So let us end this exciting journey right here, and carry on with our lives.

FUNGUSPIECE THEATER celebrates the 10th Anniversary of Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" (also...Chloe Moretz, Spiderman, a pony, Giorgio Tsoukalos, gorillas getting their jimmies rustled, drama llamas, polar bear fails, Deepak Chopra, Richard Dawkins, and the follow-your-dreams pooch)

newly invented Spiderman, my little pony, Chloe Moretz as "Hit-Girl" gif/meme/whatchamacallit/thingy

Hello again, true believers.  It's time for another thrilling episode of Funguspiece Theater.  And luckily, I'm just in the nick of time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Tommy Wiseau's independent film "The Room"  (which if you haven't heard, has become kind of a cult classic).

NOT Tommy Wiseau (Giorgio Tsoukalos Ancient Aliens hairspray gif... created by an unknown genius)

"The Room" Tommy Wiseau "You're tearing me apart, Lisa!" meme (10th anniversary edition)

gorilla scare/jimmies rustled gif

Yeah, well...  that is sure as hell not the only thing that has been going on this week on the intertubes...  and I surely want to hear what Gorilla Bananas of http://thejapingape.blogspot.com thinks about THIS.

It seems that some skewl childrens on some sort of a field trip, were taunting some poor gorilla at the Dallas zoo.

The beast got his jimmies a bit rustled and  threw a scare into these miserable rug rats.  So, I made this gif about the incident (kind of), and made a spoof video regarding it as well, which is entitled "Gorilla gets his jimmies rustled by a$$hole kids at zoo." 



But I suppose, most of you would probably like to see some footage of the actual happening, so feast your eyes on it below, if you like.  (But don't use up all your energies watching that, because we are just getting started here....)

another "that really rustled my jimmies" gorilla meme (from the internets)

drama llama meme (from the internets)

Anywho, gorillas aren't the only animals with feelings.  Llamas also come with their fair share of drama attached.  Which leads to the next exciting video at my very own youtube channel, and the title of this video is "When Llamas Attack!", and can be watched beneath this paragraph...

(UPDTAE: I deleted this video when I was in a bad mood.)

polar bear fail "looks like someone didn't read the sign"

My next video  (I'm sure many of you will think of it...  as kind of a fail) was inspired by another video entitled "Kim Beom screams at yellow paint", which was not a failure, but instead very exciting.  (Anyway, the Kim Beom vid has since been yoinked off the internets, so sadly you may never see it now.)

Oh yeah.  Now I remember more about  how I came up with the idea for MY new screaming vid.....

Ya see, I was having a brief conversation on twitter with of all people... Deepak Chopra.  (Not on my main twitter account, but on twitter.com/fungusinstitute  which is usually run by my goat mascott, but not on this day.)

No I am not making this up...

As Yanni once said, "The greatest symphony every written began with a single note."  Or maybe Morgan Freeman was the one who said that.  But that is neither here, nor there...

Homer Simpson demotivational poster (via the internets)

And with that, our journey for today finally comes to a brilliant close.

new meme:  the follow-your-dreams dog

Stay classy, Chicago!

Steven Spielberg does "Obama", Chucky C. Chuckles does "Omelette", Captain Picard does "Australia in 2 Minutes" (PLUS Jimmy Tatro, Giorgio Tsoukalos, Uter Zorker, & SONG OF THE DAY!)

"GET IN THE CAR!  No time to explain." meme  (starring cat)

Welp, you crazy kids...hold on to your potatoes, because you are about to be taken for quite a ride!  I have quite a few exciting things to tell you about, soooo... where can we start?  Oh, how about with...THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!

Anywho, you probably have heard about the short film made by Steven Spielberg for the 2013 White House Correspondents Dinner entitled "Obama."  (SEE Steven Spielberg's "Obama")

But many of you probably have not heard about the short parody of Steven Spielberg's "Obama" which was made by ME on my very own youtube channel...

"DEAL WITH IT." meme/gif starring the legendary karate kicking Black Belt Jones (and made by me)

So, guess what?  You're going to hear about that right now, so...  DEAL WITH IT.  (Sorry to sound bossy.  I had to work in "Deal with it." somehow, or that gif up there wouldn't make much sense.)


Without further ado, I present to you Steven Spielberg's "Obama" PART 2 (ft. Black Belt Jones)...






But that's not all I've been up to either.  In collaboration with JimmyFungus.com's very own Chucky C. Chuckles (the self-proclaimed "worst comedian in the world"), we are bringing to you, yet another exciting episode of FOREVER ALONE THEATER...

in the latest episode of FOREVER ALONE THEATER Chucky C. chuckles discusses the short film "Omelette"

In this exciting episode, Chucky reviews the wonderful animated short "Omelette" by Madeline Sharafian ...





Okily dokily, now that you are done watching the entire 2nd episode of FOREVER ALONE THEATER (If you didn't bother to watch it, quite frankly you are dead to me.  Kindly show yourself the door.)...  you know that Chucky, in his unbounded bitterness, rudely spoiled the ending to Jimmy Tatro's latest video "THAT High Guy." 

The Ending of "THAT High Guy"...





To speak frankly, this "unbounded bitterness" is a result of the endless avalanche of senselessly mean, and pointlessly brutal feedback we have been getting from the various peanut galleries at the youtube.

"HATERS GONNA HATE.  YES.  YES WE WILL"  meme starring Joaquin Phoenix of "Gladiator" (found on the internets)

However, I briefly had a pleasant surprise yesterday, as I discovered all of my down votes had somehow magically turned into up votes.  It was not some kind of miracle though.  The same thing had happened to every video at youtube.
For some reason, it made me feel a little bit better for awhile... but now the problem seems to be fixed, so... yeah... whatever.

Captain Picard double facepalm gif

In other exciting news at youtube.com/jimmyfungus,  I made a reaction video to the ever growing in popularity "Australia in 2 Minutes."  SEE:  Australia in 2 Minutes:  Reaction by Captain Picard

Giorgio Tsoukalos artwork is featured in this "FEELS" meme (created by an unknown genius)

And my fascination with ancient aliens expert Giorgio A. Tsoukalos continues, as I strove to create a better version of him saying "Is such a thing even possible?  Yes it is."  SEE:  "Is such a thing even possible?" asks Giorgio Tsoukalos (BEST VERSION)

Uter Zorker:  "Don't make me run!  I'm full of chocolate!" animated gif

And as always, I keep trying to help people.  I thought that many of you folks out there on the internets were probably saying to yourselves, "Why is it so hard to find a short clip of Uter Zorker, the plump German exchange student on The Simpsons, furiously running from Homer while simultaneously bellowing Don't make me run!  I'm full of chocolate! ???"  Well, thanks to my efforts you can stop asking yourself that question.  SEE:  "Don't make me run!  I'm full of chocolate!" Uter Zorker (The Simpsons)




And finally, I know we haven't had a SONG OF THE DAY for awhile but these two (Lennon and Maisy Stella) are just so good, I had to resurrect this dying segment to tell you about them.

So last, but certainly not least, here are Lennon and Maisy Stella with their cover version of "Ho Hey" (by the Lumineers)...




Once again, God bless you all, and please remember to support your local zoo.
