It feels like somebody with a fever is yelling at my pants! This rules!

You know I don't think I can pick just one quote that I loved from this week's VB ep, so I've thrown down a few of my faves. Of course the Monarch doing a shoutout to LiveJournal was the best moment of the season so far. Lucky, lucky JollyRancher_42, she was right, the Monarch is TEH SEX.

Phantom Limb: Brock Samson. The Venture mule. Do you always hang out naked in the men’s bathroom?

Guild Soldier: (coughing) I think you may have got the kidney. I don't wanna die alone! (cough) Don't...don't go!
Brock: I don't think I hit your kidney.
Guild Soldier: No, no...you totally did! (cough) Please...please! Hold me!
Brock: Look, I'm pretty sure I missed the kidney. I mean, you could bleed to death in like...four hours, but ah..
Guild Soldier: I..I see a tunnel...I'm scared...could you...could you stroke my hair?
Brock: Alright, look...you are not gonna...
Guild Soldier: Well can you sing to me? Could you sing a Technotronic song? Maybe (cough) Pump Up The Jam?
Brock: I dunno..I..
Guild Soldier: What about Move This? Do you know that one?
Brock: (long sigh) ...Baby let me..

Dr. Venture: Why are you naked?
Brock: (panting, covered in blood) To prey on their fear. Move like an animal, to feel the kill.
Dr. Venture: Alright, now you're scaring me. What's going on?
Brock: I dunno. (holds up severed head) But judging from these goggles, it's The Guild. Seems like you made it to the big league, what'd you do?
Dr. Venture: Nothing! I was just sitting here, watching the worst porno ever. Is that a head?

The Monarch: Nice ass.

IMO your subject line was the best line of the ep, but when Brock started to "sing" Move This, I nearly died.

I am so in love with this show, it's almost frightening. I started thinking about it on my way to "work" this morning: how the ridiculousness of Doc watching Best Little Whorehouse in Texas played off of the naked, blood-smeared Brock holding a severed head, for instance. I honestly think their perfect combination of violence and humor is hard to achieve, and yet they have done it flawlessly on several occasions. And that's when I realized I was analyzing The Venture Bros. as if it were literature and I had to shake my head and laugh at myself. I'm officially obsessed.

I adored Brock's response to Doc watching Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, "Uh, Doc, it's not what you think..." Heh. And his pep talk to the boys on their way to their double date. Oh and Dr. Girlfriend possibly branching out to become a supervillain was just wonderful.

Oh and Dr. Girlfriend possibly branching out to become a supervillain was just wonderful.

Yep. Just to further prove my point about my obsession, I was thinking this morning that I'm really ready for her to be done with Phantom Limb, but at the same time I don't want to see her running back to The Monarch. Heh. :)

Also, let's discuss the possibility of a Venture Bros. mix. I've got Move This and Everybody's Free... how about Hungry Like the Wolf?

Absolutely, and I'm thinking the "Time Warp" as well...maybe "She Blinded me with Science" in honor of Dr. Girlfriend.

I just found an electronic version of Time Warp that's rather astounding. This mix is so not going to be to everyone's taste, but it will make me giggle. Now if I can find some VB soundbites....
