Get ready to have your mind blown.

I’ve just held a high-level cabinet meeting with myself and created a new position in my future world government expressly for my friend Mary: Grand Chancellor of Awesome. First this then this and now she points me to something I’d seen before but was too blown away to remember. This:

“Developed by Chuck Norris for stunt fighting in action movies. These great looking western style jeans have a unique hidden gusset which allows greater movement without binding or ripping.”

The italics aren’t even mine, people. That’s how important the unique hidden gusset is.

I’m going to make a cut-out of Chuck from that image and do things with it, including possibly the ban-hammer graphic I’ve been meaning to make. Ban-roundhouse-kick-of-death is more to my taste anyway.

You just couldn’t buy this kind of entertainment before the internet.

Can’t…stop…

    You need to photo-shop your head (with the helmet, of course) to Chuck’s body. Now that would be hawt!!

  2. Rob Farrington Says:

    Can’t we have Rachel’s head and her body?

    Right, now I’m going to run away before Rupert reads this.

  3. lance de boyle Says:

    I, too, have a unique hidden gusset—which allows greater movement without binding or ripping.

    Sadly, my wife—Lucretia De Borgia De Boyle—is not impressed.

    “Hey, how about some action, Lucretia? I’ve got a few new night moves—guaranteed to please–and perhaps bemuse as well.

    “Oh?”

    “You betcha. It’s all in the unique hidden gussetry.”

    “You have a unique hidden gusset?”

    “Yup. A gusset. Also unique. None of the usual binding or ripping that presages disaster and significant chaffing.”

    “Well, just keep your gusset in your pants, Lance.”

    “So, your position with respect to night moves is a firm and consistent No?”

    “Correct. Also day moves.”

    “Then what’s the point of nonbinding and nonripping hidden gussetings?”

    “It gives you and Chuck Norris something to schmooze about.”

    These gussets are a waste of good hard cash.

    Shisizzle, I gotta git me some them! Why, wear them things to my Krav Maga training, and I’ll be a-high kickin’ an’ a-whampin’ and a-whompin’ every livin’ thing that moves within a inch of its life. Except the women folks, of course.

  5. Para Says:

    I’m wondering why they included the inset photo of Chuck’s ASS?

    Oh, yeah, I forgot, SEX SELLS

    Rachel, I think it’s time for some pix of you and the dogs doing karate moves.

  6. Para Says:

    To all the ass-hatted hippies of the world, Chuck gives you…A BOOT TO THE HEAD!

    The Chuck Norris roundhouse kick ban hammer! Sweet! You should link it up to where it spouts a random Chuck Norris Fact at the luser when they try and visit the site after being banned.

    Well crud. Then it would be too cool to get banned, and the comments would lose their current level of awesomeness.

    That’s why a Rachl Lukis led world is better than my hair brained schemes. I see my shortcomings now. Carry on.

  10. Para Says:



    [para - i had to thumbnail that one, it was breaking the comment template. AWESOME PIC by the way :) - Rachel]

  11. Rickvid in Seattle Says:

    When Chuck Norris kicks hippies, Code Pinkos and WBC vermin in the head, his foot does not actually have to touch them. The bow shock wave in front of his foot is so strong it obliterates the target microseconds ahead of his boot.

    Wow, a plethora of crotch shots before driving home. You just never know what you’re going to get when you click on Rachel. Crotch shots! My fav is the one Para posted with the closeup of JUST THE CROTCH. Like I needed a mental image of Chuck’s Crotch? Tanks a lot Wachel!

    You think the internet is great for that, weight…er…wait until you see THIS. You may never count calories again–or need to!

  18. Rob Farrington Says:

    I once read a magazine in the late 70s (God knows which one but it wasn’t a porno mag…honest! Although I did once find my dad’s stash in his wardrobe *ahem*) that advertised a plastic ‘crotch complement’ that you stuffed down your trousers. I remember the ad saying “Get the ‘arrogant’ look!”.

    Two questions occur to me now - was there really someone who made millions from exploiting really insecure men by selling them expensive shuttlecocks? And what did these men do if they actually managed to get an impressed female to go to bed with them and then had to take their trousers off?

    The mind boggles.

  19. Robert Says:

    What exactly IS a gusset and why does it have to be hidden?

  20. 14 Karat Says:

    gus·set (gst)
    n.
    1. A triangular insert, as in the seam of a garment, for added strength or expansion.
    2. A triangular metal bracket used to strengthen a joist.
    3. A piece of mail or plate armor protecting the joints in a suit of armor.

    If it’s not hidden it means you’re gay. (JK)

    A “unique hidden gusset”?

    Sounds….kinky.

  24. Kate P Says:

    I think one time I saw the same selling points under a girdle in the Penney’s catalog–maybe it was the female equivalent for fending off creeps!

  25. Rob Farrington Says:

    Can I be Imperial Torturer? Misha has one so I don’t see why Rachel shouldn’t have one, too.

    OK, I’m a bit squeamish about attaching electrodes to someone’s nipples but I can work wonders with a Barney The Dinosaur video:

    “Now, you know you’re going to have to talk eventually, Osama!”

    “Damn you infidel kuffar pig-dogs and your Jewish masters. And your whoreish women who you allow to go outside without wearing tents! We mujahadeen will never surrender!”

    (nods to eager, clean-shaven aide who inserts a DVD into the player)

    “And heeeeres Baaarney!! ‘I love you, you love me, we’re one happy family! I love you, you love me, we’re one happy family…” (continues ad nauseum)

    “AAAARRRGH!!! Please, for the love of allah (and peace be unto him), make it stop. I’ll tell you where the plutonium is, and even where my goat porn magazines are. Just please make it STOP!”

  26. J.C. Corbett Says:

    You know Chuck’s gonna show up here, now, and we’re going to get the fully gusseted story. Maybe not.

  27. Joan of Argghh! Says:

    Sheesh, 14K, in that crotch-stretch pic I could swear that Chuck Norris’ hidden gusset is smiling at me.

    “Is that your gusset, or are you just happy to see me?”

  28. 14 Karat Says:

    Yeah, careful what you say about Chucky’s smilin’ puss, Rachel …

    Before Photoshopping, ask sir Clint the immortal question … Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

  29. felicity Says:

    Okay, you guys are totally awesome, and I am sooooo ‘last week,’ but I had to do this for Sunny.

    Chuck’s butt shot is, ummmm, very tight, but I think it’s supposed to show how ‘hidden’ his gusset is when he’s not waving it in your general direction… or else it’s just cheap, sexist commercialism!

  31. N. O'Brain Says:

    I like the version of the Barney song I made up for my kids:

    I hate you
    You hate me
    We’re a dysfunctional family
    With a great big kick
    And a slap from me to you
    Won’t you say you hate me, too

  32. Para Says:

    Sorry Rachel. I kinda got obsessed for abotu five minutes. Then my wife said, “Hey Para, ( actually she calls me Sweetie, ugh) let’s go get Mexican food”, to which I actually squealed like a little girl because I haven’t had a meal over 500 calories for about three months. Then we got to the restaurant and it sucked hard.

    Back to eating at home. Broccoli and Chicken breast. yay………yay.

  33. Jim Carson Says:

    Where’s Waldo?

    Perhaps the gusset hides in plain sight.

  34. 14 Karat Says:

    Joan of Argghh, in response to your question …

  38. evvybuns Says:

    Is that a “unique hidden gusset” in your jeans, or are you just glad to see me?

    Oops. Just saw that this wasn’t exactly original.

  39. hM Says:

    14 Karat, you don’t have photoshop?

  40. 14 Karat Says:

    No.

    But I damn sure have used it enough to be totally gettin’ my jones on looking at your creations …

    You know you’re a geek when you’re rather have photoshop than bling.

    Sigh.

  41. tedders Says:

    OHHHH, I think I just pulled a groin muscle looking for my gusset!!

  42. hM Says:

    Hmmm. Send me an email and I’ll see if I can help you out with your jones for the photoshop.

  43. 14 Karat Says:

    hM,
    Got the address if you want to take it down.
    You are my new crush. Sorry, Rchl.

    This pair has Kevlar too!

    Omygawd BWAHAHAAHHAHA

    I just spewed a mouthload of heiney …. a Kevlar gusset for the love of god I must must MUST know why !!!!!! What are you preventing from sullying the sanctity of this area???

    And from Colorado, the hilarity overwhelms …

    I’m sending this thread to Matt and Trey.
    I’m super serial …!!!!

    [my. life. for. photoshop. kevlar. crotch]

    Can’t stop laughing at the infinite possibilities …

  47. WayneB Says:

    Speaking of that menace to civilization, Barney, am I the only one who required a couple of years of hearing that damn song to realize the tune was a slowed-down rendition of the Knick Knack Paddy-Whack song?

  48. 14 Karat Says:

    WayneB Says am I the only one …:

    Yes. Yes you are. You are a retard, and you should never post about anything again as long as you or your heirs continue to suck oxygen until the end of time.

    Having said that, thanks a lot for calling us all out on something that still, despite the fact that my youngest is 11, makes me beyond bugshit crazy : ) In 1997, in a family letter, I officially declared my house a “Barney-free zone”. ANNNNDDD so, my mother-in-law used to specifically pick up my kids for a “fun shopping day” so they could go to her house and watch the banned purple menace: to add insult to injury she would then take them to the nearest available rampant consumerist craphole cesspool of society begging for a chlorination beat-down (aka your friendly neighborhood local Wal-Mart) to purchase a continuing reminder (that I constantly had to pick up and put away) of how much I hated that purple cholo chileho mofo.

    I really miss Sara. She was a worthy opponent.

    So imagine my joy and awe when B girl (no not the “No Rain” bee girl) came home spewing this little ditty:

    I hate you
    You hate me
    Let’s hang Barney from a tree
    But then a shot rang out
    And Barney hit the floor
    No more purple dinosaur

    That’s when this “woodenhead” realized the tunage factor, Wayne. “This old gal is rolling home, {cuz there’s} no more purple dinosaur.”

    Toldj’all I raised them right!

  49. hM Says:

    Thanks Rachel:D You know you’ll always be first in my heart (in a non-gay, you’re super cool I wish I was like you way, of course).

  50. 14 Karat Says:

    hM,
    Glad for that.
    Sorry I didn’t see the light sooner.
    Short bussin’ it to enlightenment is a loonnng journey, and all the rest …

  51. hM Says:

    Since we’re all posting about the awesomeness of Chuck Norris’ hidden gusset here, I think I should bring everybody’s attention to an important website you should all know about: Chuck Norris Facts.

    Also, I believe “The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny” should be required watching.

  57. dogette Says:

    Let me just be the first to exclaim, in my simple way:

    What the FUCK, Chuck?

  58. Bill St. Clair Says:

    Many years ago, I wore gusseted pants from some airy-fairy new-age company, the name of which I have forgotten. Incredibly comfortable! But the company went out of business. So I, for one, wish these pants were for real. But I want chinos, not jeans.

    I just spewed a mouthload of heiney …. a Kevlar gusset for the love of god I must must MUST know why !!!!!! What are you preventing from sullying the sanctity of this area???

    The kevlar gusset (unique, hidden) isn’t for keeping stuff out. It’s for keeping dangerous things in. This is Chuck Norris’ we’re talking about.

  61. 14 Karat Says:

    Uh, isn’t that pronounced thuper therial?

    hM and 14k,
    Okay, you photoshopping madwomen, here’s some new action wear for Chuck — have at it! (pretty please?)

  68. Tal Says:

    okay, now… this is officially the funniest thread i’ve ever read in my life.

    in many ways.

  69. KevinF Says:

    500 years from now there’ll be an entire genre of conspiracy thriller novels about search for the fabled unique-hidden-gusset of Chuck Norris.

  70. Steve Skubinna Says:

    I dunno, but does anyone else find it more than a little… unseemly… to see Wachel and Mary playing Find the Gusset with Chuck Norris? Er… I’m stepping out for s bit, be back later. If anyone’s interested, I have Kevlar socks, so suck on that, gusset fags.

  71. Todd Says:

    TC leather penguin: was that a white onion or a yellow one?

  72. Shaky Says:

    Your poster is very perceptive. I frankly have never seen a homosexual deliver an excellent roundhouse kick. Not without breaking into giggles anyway.

  73. tbrosz Says:

    Bill St. Clair remembers the same company I do. The outfit was called “Chi Pants,” based out of Santa Cruz, CA. They bragged about the same gusset, although it was more about being able to squat down and cultivate your marijuana patch than about high kicks. The pants came with a real crystal sewn into them.

    For years, “hidden gusset” pants were, as far as we Californians were concerned, first-class hippie pants. Sorry, Chuck.

  74. Stephen Says:

    Norris with a hidden gusset?
    Nah. I don’t believe it.
    Rock Hudson? OK, sure.
    Jim Nabors? Hidden in plain sight.
    Norris? Nope.
    C’mon!!! My inner teenager still has the scars from the years-long Pete Townshend scare.

    Incidentally, Century Martial Art Supply still exists, and they sell lots of stuff with gussets.

  77. hM Says:

    felicity, just because you asked so nicely:

    Non-Existent Gusset

  78. Larry-in-IL Says:

    Speaking of gussets — in my former work-life I used steel gussets frequently in my designs, although not in bridges. FROM Popular Mechanics last January:

    Sixteen fractured gusset plates in the center span on Interstate 35W were a main cause of the deadly [40-year-old ] bridge collapse in Minneapolis last August, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said on Tuesday. The plates, which connected steel beams in the truss bridge, were roughly half the thickness they should have been because of a design error. How that flaw made it into the bridge is unclear; according to NTSB chairman Mark Rosenker, investigators couldn’t find the original design calculations.

  79. felicity Says:

    hM,
    Hahaaaaa — you did it! The castle in the background is the pièce de résistance. (And in keeping with ‘Tradition,’ I’m sure he’d win first prize!)

    Ed sounds like a man who could really use a gusset!

  80. Steve Skubinna Says:

    Oh great, now Larry has to bring up fractured gussets. I’m in a fetal position, with my knees clamped together, thinking about baseball scores.

    Yeah, I remember that bridge. It fell down due to Smirkychimp W. Pretzelchoker McHitlerburton’s illegal and immoral war for oil. Because all of the National Guard’s crack Gusset Inspection Battalions were busy teaching Arabic to Iraqis instead of Afghans. And besides, who built all of Saddam’s bridges in the first place, huh?

  81. felicity Says:

    all of the National Guard’s crack Gusset Inspection Battalions

    (and the kilt revolution: all gussets, all the time — FREEDOM!)

    hM,
    I keep kept trying to answer, but the spaminator keeps kept eating my replies! I’m hoping three’s a charm![and it was! ed.]

    1) Your naughty post is verrrry naughty — might need tagses!

    2) Your enlightened Chuck in a kilt is destroying my last shred of sobriety — and I don’t even drink!

    3) You are too kind — I’m glad you feel for poor Sunny![I am honestly humbled! ed.]

  89. felicity Says:

    Yay! I got through — must have been the other bit I kept trying to throw in for Carbo. Hmmm. How to do this…

    Jim Carson,

    Maybe that’s why hobos are so weary!
    (and have those issues with the police!)

    I just stumbled upon a funny one:

    Google

    “Chuck Norris Rules” and hit “I’m feeling lucky”

    and then

    “Chuck Norris Sucks” and hit “I’m feeling lucky”

    Both pages have great lists of “Chuck -isms” like,

    If you have five dollars and Chuck Norris has five dollars, Chuck Norris has more money than you.

    On the second page, as the name suggests, the chuck-isms are not so pro-chuck :

    Chuck Norris is currently suing ABC, claiming Hope & Faith are trademarked names for his left and right breasts.

  106. Wendy Says:

    Some of these comments are as funny as the post. Good stuff. How do y’all feel about Captain Kirk?

  107. Para Says:

    Speaking of lyrics, I just found the lyrics to “Walker, Texas Ranger” performed by Chuck Norris.

    In the eyes of a ranger,
    The unsuspecting stranger,
    Had better know the truth of wrong from right,

    ‘Cause the eyes of a ranger are upon you,
    Any wrong you do, he’s gonna see,

    When you’re in Texas, look behind you,

    ‘Cause that’s where the rangers gonna be.

  108. Steve Skubinna Says:

    You know, it has just occurred to me that Wachel is on potentially dangerous ground here - I mean, an offhand quote about ath- I mean, uh, “you knows” in foxho- er, that is, “you know whats” and the God haters had to swarm on over to wish her ill.

    How much more risky is it to run up a red flag for Chuck Norris?
