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.
Em
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!
Check the anvil for autobot guts
Ok,Lisa’s comment was hilarious, I can’t compete with that.
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.
Bwhahahhahahahahahahah!!!! That is too funny!
I sorta feel sorry for him though, sorta like I cried when Darth Vader died in Star Wars. Nahhh he had it comin.
If Shia comes over, by golly you better call me TH!
May Optimus Prime rest in pieces…
Get it? Har Har!
oh man. that does suck. i feel like hanging our autobots, they sure are rough on the feet… that is b/c my son has all of them and about two or three of each one at that… and they are all over his entire room!!
that looks like a big transformer.
have a good one.
xoxoxox
had to come back and tell you the new WSOP champ is 2 years younger then Helmuth was… can’t wait to hear him cry about that.
Its a shame…he was so young. And so transformable…..
Should mankind be worried?
Sounds like there is a Decepticon sleeper cell alive and well in the Nirvana kingdom.
Constant Vigilance!!!
what is this world coming to? (super funny!)
Have you put up the yellow police tape since this photo was taken?
HEY!!! If Grissom shows up, tell him I am devastated he is quitting CSI and I have the major hots for him.
Whoever did can’t be too terrible. There is a pillow below for a soft landing.
Are you warning me that when I give all those Transformer thingys for Christmas that I will be wanting to plot their demise?
See, to me, it looks like a suicide.

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???”
Whoa. Be sure to dust for prints.
L-O-V-E this post. Too funny!
Ha Ha HA
Lisa’s comment made it even better.
So, will we see pics of this major case squad? Step by Step updates?
Every time I hear "Optimus Prime" I think of Dane Cook… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G366RqJftlE&feature=related
Boys are just livin’ in their own little weird cosmic worlds – aren’t they – HA! Too funny!
Take care – Kellan
Oh poor Prime. My daughter will be so sad that her hero has bit the dust.
this is a sad, sad state of affairs.
“I just couldn’t take all the change anymore”, he wrote.
I couldn’t believe this when I caught it on CNN this morning! What is this world coming to?????
I found some Barbies bound and gagged over here. Gosh, I hope these crimes are not connected.
Looks like a suicide to me. I’d say another victim of this economy. So many bots out of work.
You don’t wanna see what I caught the G.I. Joes doing a few years ago. Disturbing stuff, yo!
Oh, hells belles. Poor transformers. Jojo (the clown) met a similar fate round here.
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 …

A real loss.
NOOOOOOO! Not Optimus Prime! The horror! Will Bumble Bee take over?
How happy am I that I have no idea what any of you are talking about? Know if it was 10 years ago and the topic was Pokemon . . .!
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.
Your house is scaaarrry! I just might keep my distance from Texas after that shot.
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?
Can you blame him? What a horribly taxing job it must be, to lead the autobots…
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…
Haha! That was great.
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.
