Surprise Topic Sunday!

After spending an entire day trying to figure out what on earth I was going to write about for today's post... I flopped on my bed after an NCIS-a-thon with my parents and saw the Cthulhu plushie my boyfriend gave me a few weeks ago.  That's right.  Today's post is going to be dedicated to the glory of Cthulhu.

 You should definitely listen to this song as you read this post.
It will explain everything in a very amusing way.  ;)

For those of you who do not know about Cthulhu (shame on you, go read some HP Lovecraft!), he is this awesome destructive god who likes to om nom nom on worlds and destroy them.  Because that's what all the coolest fictional gods do.

There are a number of different thoughts about what exactly Cthulhu looks like... but he's always this giant abomination with tentacles on his face and usually has wings and lives in a sunken city.

 My plushie looks very similar to this.  And I have the coolest boyfriend in the multiverse.

And yes, I do think that Cthulhu would make a better president than anyone who's running this year.  Not that I have a huge problem with President Obama... I just think it'd be fun to watch the world be eaten by a giant tentacle monster.  And to be completely honest, while Romney (along with Paul) was one of my top choices for a Republican candidate this fall, I still don't actually like him.  He was just a little less terrifying than some of the other choices.

But let's not get into a huge political debate... the election isn't for a few more months, and as much as I'd love to see the United States government be controlled by evil gods... it's not going to happen.  At least not this year.

I was first introduced to Cthulhu by my father, who told me about a joke he saw online somewhere (which I won't even try to tell you because I don't remember it well enough).  It takes some religious figures like Jesus and Buddha, and then at the end it says Cthulhu thinks you'd make a tasty sandwich.  I then looked into it a little more and quickly became obsessed interested.

But not to the point where I've joined a cult or anything.  Nope.

And this explains one of the reasons I'm not in a cult:

    Always relevant.

    "Squishable Cthulhu may be slowly nomming away on your sanity while you sleep, but he's so big and huggable that you're perfectly okay with that. His beard of tentacles and teensy wings make Squish-thulhu the most adorable Elder God ever."

  2. You forgot to mention that his head exploded after someone ran a boat into him, and he STILL kept coming.
