Monty by Jim Meddick for January 18, 2023

He’s looking rocky all right.

I’m all for personification (obviously), but a robot perspiring ?

I don’t remember Burgess having a sweet fetish in Rocky, but it’s hard to resist those cinnabons.

In junior high school we had a 300 lb coach. He would stand on the sidelines eating candy bars and drinking Coke, telling us to run faster. Truly inspirational.

I hate to be pedantic but I’m thinking exercise would have the opposite effect on a robot – the parts would wear out sooner, not get stronger! (Surprised I could focus enough to post that after reading “Cinnabon!”)

I have to say Mr. Meddic, this is one good series you have going here! Thanks

If you have wheels, why do you need knees? Wouldn’t that just make you unstable?

“And now, your weapons!”

“Clampers? Hammer? Spinners?”

“No, you’ll use sarcasm. You’ll have all the tricks, dramatic irony, metaphor, bathos, puns, parody, litotes and… satire…”

At first glance I thought the megaphone was a coffee. :)

I could be that trainer!

Monty at his most annoying (and that’s saying something)!

E.B. should just stop, with his excuse being that over-action had jammed his gears….
