Yes. They're called Gila Monsters.
It's not rattlesnake-level venom, but I can't let you Aussies be talking too much smack.

I don't know how things are Down Under, but here in the States we have a severe bee shortage. Seriously. Honeybees are considered a good thing; we need more of them.

You can have ours. Seriously. You're welcome to them. In fact, take all of them, to the last.
Interesting note: the English bee actually died out in WWI. Apparently it was a disease, and not the 31st Battalion consisting entirely of bees, making a trench run. So they had to import all of their bees from elsewhere.
Beekeeper 1: how many bees do you have, then?
Beekeeper 2: a hundred thousand, not bad, eh?
Beekeeper 1: in how many hives?
Beekeeper 2: twenty seems to do about right. How many bees do you have then?
Beekeeper 1: a million
Beekeeper 2: a million??? Bloody Hell, how many hives?
Beekeeper 1: one
Beekeeper 2: a million bees, in just one hive?
Beekeeper 1: yeah, fuck 'em they're just bees.

C'mon, his singing's not that bad. It's the backup singers, the dancers, the costuming, and everything else that went into the making of that video that is so wonderfully terrible.

Found another Badass worth sharing.
http://www.badassoftheweek.com/voytek.html
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.
--The horror of Mario
Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

I found the source of this image, and I had to share.
It was an 80s cartoon and toy line with space aliens fighting on earth using dinosaurs as tanks and planes.

I had a pterodactyl which had a hang-glider-like sling that fit under it.
Oy. I feel old now, and I'm only 22...

I loved Dino-Riders. I had the T-Rex and the triceatops, and the denonychus, and a couple of the pterodactyls. I was a huge dinosaur nut, so D-R was like crack to me.
I'm older'n you, Maxus. Not by much, though.
Hey, who's up for a Dino-Riders RPG?

I'm up for it, but missed the eighties by about ten months and didn't have a color TV until about 2000. Basically, I'd help with balance, but not much more.

I had the triceratops (with a gun harness on it. Lots of las-cannons) as a kid. Dinoriders was totally awesome. Also had the pterodactyl and the pteranodon IIRC. Might have even had a deinonychus/velociraptor.

Thinking back on it now...
Isn't it weird how many R-rated movies spawned successful toy lines? I kept the Terminator 2 and Aliens toys in business when I was a kid.

This is scary.
What is the movie with the second highest on screen body count in the 90s more than Saving Private Ryan and Starship Troopers?
The internet gave a voice to the world thus gave definitive proof that the world is mostly full of idiots.

Nothing to add to Maxus and Talisman's lists. They've stated my entire childhood. There might be more but I pretty much watched anything that didn't have ponies, rainbows, or pastries as main themes.
Transformers, Thundercats, and Silverhawks (briefly) were my favorites.
Something about the Mon-Star and Mum Ra voice actor performance just blew my mind back then, but even more impressioning were the assorted Transformer vocoder effects and anime sounds (Robotech as well?).
Damn, I was like a starling back then, mimicking cartoon noises without reason or context.

I still have my She-Ra castle and "action figures" (they really are dolls, damn it). And I just found the well-loved He-Man jammies that have been passed down through my siblings. I put them in the pile of still too big clothes for my son.

For some reason, I found this statement really incredulous. Seriously... A dude who has an entire convoy following him around with multiple plans on how to get safely from one destination to another is going to stop at a toll booth?
I don't see it.
My son makes me laugh. Maybe he'll make you laugh, too.

Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers? I mean, due, the shoestring tech they had was awesome!
Freakazoid? Animaniacs? Anyone?
And seriously, Exo-squad. Power suits, interstellar racial war, actual character death. Badass show.

JEM - Knew of it; never watched it.
Droids -
Kidd Video - Now I remember. Man, that was a strange show.
Rescue Rangers - Yeah! Gadget could make some awesome stuff. I loved that show at the time, although Dale was an idiot and Chip was a bossy dick.
Freakazoid - Nope.
Animaniacs - Loves parts of it; hated other parts. Pinky & the Brain was cool.
Oh, and who could forget Alvin and the Chipmunks? That show was so messed up (Why are the chipmunks 4' tall? Why is it "Alvin and the Chipmunks" if Alvin is a Chipmunk? Where the hell did the Chipettes come from? Are there normal chipmunks in this universe? If not, where are all the other giant chipmunks? If so, WTF is up with Alvin and the gang? Why was Alvin such a jerk?).
And let's not forget Flagrant Transformer Ripoff Go-Bots! One robot can become...wait for it...a scooter!
Wow, I just remembered the Hot Wheels cartoon. I totally loved it at the time for some bizarre reason known only to suger-hyped 8-year-olds.
