where are they now – optimus prime

August 3, 2010

in Mom blogs,mom says

This was the scene last time the Nirvana covered the Optimus Prime story (November 2008):

Optimus Prime, recognized leader of the Autobots was found hung from the Nirvana boys’ bunkbed at 6:02 p.m., Sunday, November 9, 2008.

There was no indication of foul play.

The homeowner, Texasholly reports that the scene has remained untouched awaiting the Major Case Squad’s further evaluation.

Texasholly went on to say that neither she, nor anyone else living in the house has any affiliation with the Decepticons.

Where is he now?

It appears that Optimus Prime may have had help in faking his death in an attempt to relieve himself of the pressures of  Autobot leadership.

Despite the grizzly details from his November 2008 “accident”, he made a full recovery and has been living under the Autobot/Decepticon  radar.

He now resides happily in the suburbs of Texas with a colony of faux-snakes.

Fine! It was me!

I did it!

You all can celebrate me as I do my dead woman walking – I’m so %$#@! sick of those damn things, I took one for the team.

You’re welcome.

P.S. Holly, I love what you’ve done with the place, but you totally lie about what’s in your fruit bowl – it’s brimming with healthy stuff!

If you have nothing to do with the Decepticons, then you might want to watch your back. :)

Did that even make sense what I wrote? I have no idea what a Decepticon is, but it can’t be good.

I saw this on CNN – Optimus Prime held captive then killed in Texas.

Personally, I think YOU did this Miss Holly. WHY? So you could meet those foxy Texas Rangers of course.

my favorite blog post of the day. not because i AM associated with the decepticons but because i know my 34 year old husband has an unhealthy obsession with the Autobots and, once I email this to him, He will gasp loud enough that the world will pause to say “what was that horrible sound???”

Looks like a suicide to me. I’d say another victim of this economy. So many bots out of work.

I’m so sorry, I won’t be able to make it to the wake; my oldest son is too deep in mourning. I have to be here for him. Maybe another time, under more pleasant circumstances? I’m only a few hours away, after all …

You know, I thought I saw this on the local news. This picture is far more graphic though, robots everywhere are hiding in fear and shuddering today.

I love you. You’re the only one I know that can make the devistation of losing an Autobot into the perfect blog post.

btw-what happened to your blingy background?

misty August 3, 2010 at 4:21 pm

Can you blame him? What a horribly taxing job it must be, to lead the autobots…

Nathan August 4, 2010 at 8:58 am

Very funny! My only question,

Is there a name still written on the bottom of Optimus Primes foot or does it appear to have been washed off?

Hmmm… suspicious behavior at the Nirvana house…

One of my coworkers in the army had a japanese barbie type doll names Meeko. His room mates did such mean things to her. She was hung by her neck with a fake suicide note on her, placed in the convection oven, etc. Your boys sure have a good imagination…

I am here to report that the real Optimus Prime is alive and well in Chicago where they are filming Transformers 3. All the studio trailers are parked in a lot the movie company has leased for the summer on Halsted, across from my daughters apartment.
