There are super fans, and then there are super crazy fans.
This Venezuelan man is one of the latter.
Henry Damon had his nose chipped off along with several other surgeries to make him look more like the villain Red Skull from Captain America.
“He has loved comic books since he was a kid and always dreamed of being Red Skull, but never got round to doing it,” said one of his friends.
Damon now goes by the name “Red Skull” and in addition to the nose removal, he also had his eyeballs tattooed black, his face tattooed red and black and subdermal lumps added to his forehead.
His next step is to get silicone implants on the cheekbones, chin and cheeks and dye his entire face red.
Maybe he should have opted for the Chris Evans look instead.
Of course, passengers at the airport weren’t informed of this drill ahead of time, leading to some very anxious civilians (including Travel Channel’s Andrew Zimmern).

That’s gonna leave a mark.
I’m telling you, women can be b*tches. They’re cats. Junior tigers.

I’ve been thinking about joining a gym since I can go for free w/medicare. Might be real good for me.
Don’t overdue it, BL.
Glad to know she’s keeping them in shape.
I keep waiting for them to set themselves free, but it never happens.
No, honey, I never even noticed her long, luscious, lickable legs.
The woman above was having a passionate affair with an Irish inspector from a pest-control company. One afternoon they were carrying on in the bedroom together when her husband arrived home unexpectedly.
‘Quick,’ said the woman to the lover, ‘into the closet!’ and she pushed him in the closet, stark naked.
The husband, however, became suspicious and after a search of the bedroom discovered the man in the closet. ‘Who are you?’ he asked him.
‘I’m an inspector from Bugs-B-Gone,’ said the exterminator.
‘What are you doing in there?’ the husband asked.
‘I’m investigating a complaint about an infestation of moths,’ the man replied.
‘And where are your clothes?’ asked the husband.
The man looked down at himself and said, ‘Those little bastards! ‘
You gonna be here all week?
Really, mom, the dog did it
That’s how we used to remove windshields before the glue-in ones.
You mean you got a crazy woman to kick it out?

Well done and thank you.
Bill Cosby accused of Rapping? It’s almost too horrible to contemplate.
“Uh, congratulations, you passed the driver’s test!” said John to the Asian lesbian disabled applicant.
“Oh come off it!” bleated Pedro.
Don’t drive stoned.
Wow, what are the chances? I think Bob is right and it was a hit.
“Uh, congratulations, you’re hired!” said John to the black lesbian disabled applicant.
“Uh, congratulations”– never mind.
I remember this one from years ago. I was thinking about hunting it up. Good find!
I’ll miss Friday Fail next week. I can just hear everyone shrieking, “Please, Bob, don’t miss next week; miss the rest of time,” or “While you’re away, stay away.” I’ll ignore your insults and mention if you’re looking for my typical inanity you can always bore yourselves silly with any of my books. Not looking to make any money; if I had to rely on income from my books I’d be long dead. A few are always free–a very popular price for my books–at https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/rdpower
Quite the impressive selection, BP. Yes, we will definitely miss your humor next week; a main and necessary ingredient of a successful FF.
Drug pushers and women always give you a small taste for free, then they cut you off, saying if you want some more, you’ll have to pay for it.
If your going to re-post one of my selections, don’t forget this one:
I’ll definitely miss you next week, Bob. Always enjoy your contributions.
The feeling’s mutual.
It’s possible..BTW, it’s Nurse Ratched.. Getting hard to count on them on Fridays..
For Old time’s sake, the grand finale
The bike has what I call the bubbly sound of a Harley. And the biker plays violin. Wonderful music. Thanks so much for that. Love how they arrive.
ignorance was bliss till you told him that about the nurse–
Not even a drive by from T..Hope all is well..
pretty good version but i like tom russell’s studio version best–another good version is ian tyson,who wrote it,doing it live on the old tx connection–
Tyson is good, Russell not so much.
Let’s be clear that Ecoli is not EC, but he does a good job of it. I might retire. How’s your Panglossian memory? Stay away from Paula, she’s mine.
Hey CHICO!
WHO IS THE VIXEN?
Vic from SC. We have quite a few ladies here.
Yes, that’s me. I’ve actually been here several years now. Wow, time flies. And the people here gave me my name, Vixen Vic, because they didn’t like my initial name. It was too confusing.
do you edit for the Augusta paper?
No, but when I was in college (as an adult), the professor of my journalism class recommended me to the “Augusta Chronicle” and I worked for them as a paid correspondent and did my own photography. Some of my stories may still be online. They were generally community interest types of things, nothing too serious. That was for staff. But “The Chronicle” no longer pays correspondents. You have to be a staff writer or photographer to get paid now.
I’m currently a contractor with a company that transcribes White House briefings, congressional hearings, corporate conference calls to shareholders, and does the transcripts for major new corporations, such as FOX and CNN.
I started out in the political section transcribing the White House briefings and congressional hearings. The majority of the work was congressional hearings. But when Congress went on recess, there was no work, so when I begged for some other work, I was offered work in the network news editing department.
I switched permanently to network news editing because I can’t stand listening to politicians and thought listening to them would eventually give me a heart attack because they pissed me off so much. I’ve been contracted with this company about 15 years now.
I went from book publishing at OU press to Tech editing for government contracts. Boring and lucrative gubment work. Retired early. Half blind.
M.G., are you Paula? Are people changing names again? Isn’t M.G. really My Girl?
Edit: Or could this possibly be Maggie?
VV…
I am Maggie moniker changed.
Paula is a real person but I have to text her a link. She really is an Okie. She requires constant editing.
If I want to “avoid the annoying one” I use Speedy or just Anon.
Do I hear Hollywood Rob’s ears pricking up?
I hope not. I am really working on my self-control.
And, I really had an ordeal with hernia mesh.
In the cyberflesh!
I would share a.recent photo but I am limiting picture uploads.
Hope your health is improving, Maggie. I know you’ve been going through a lot lately.
My husband just left to go to Cleveland for Aunt Pat’s funeral. She is the matriarch of the family line for the Greatest Generation.
I am babysitting a big white dog with bad hips.
VV? Have kids? I figure we are “close” in age. Am 58.
I have a theory about Millennials…they grew up watching buildings blown up. My son was in private Christian school, 2nd grade. I was homeroom Mom. I rushed to the school and discovered his teacher had the classroom television turned so the class could watch.
We turned it off after second plane hit but damage was done. Kids knew.
Waco, then Murrah, the WTC 95, ..
When did the Khobar towers get bombed? The first time?
I stayed in Khobar during trips to Saudi. My husband got a 5,000 dollar bonus to train in Saudi after 9-11. The compound Boeing used got car bombed. My son was 9 then.
It was “standard operating procedure.” Life became more dangerous, it seemed. We started prepping I wonder how many are paying attention?
So…this Hero generation grew up on Destruction and Superheroes and Mutants
Not the ninja turtle kind.
Just a theory
Maggie, we are very close in age. I’ll be 57 this year on October 26th. I was born in the middle of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
I wasn’t in the military but did consider joining when I was in high school. But I was also a major Beatles and John Lennon fan, and “Make Love, Not War” won out.
I think if we lived closed to each other, we would probably be best friends because we seem to have a lot of common thoughts.
My son doesn’t remember the World Trade Center bombing, because he was still very young, but he’s aware of other things that have been going on. I’m a Christian Libertarian, as you know, and I teach him my own beliefs of Christianity and the economy, to name a few things. I also teach him that things aren’t always as they seem.
If my son was still in school, from elementary to high school, in this day and age, he wouldn’t attend public schools. I would either home school him or put him in private school. What they teach in public schools today is not education but indoctrination.
I am a low-key prepper. And I’ve told my son why I prepare things so he’ll be aware. I also own gold and silver, and have given my son his own gold and silver coins. And I’ve told him why they are worth having and why he should never sell them if he can help it.
Hopefully, in the future, when I’m not around, he’ll remember what I’ve taught him. Because his family, after I’m gone, may be the ones that face the turmoil
I am rarely low-key. Unless I am being stalked.
Then I call old friends who stalk right back.
My son poo-poos the prepping. He lives in a high rise building and drinks tap water.
His silver rounds are in the ground here. He left his guns here too.
Sigh.
But I have it on good Authority that if he was trained up right he could come around.
I am a Common Sense Believer
Non-denom.
Non-demon, too, I pray.
I’m not sure what non-demon means, sorry.
I think when things start happening that we have preached about, the youngin’s will realize that what we taught them had merit and hopefully they will remember what we said and why we prepared.
My son has been away at college for several years and now has a girlfriend that he thinks “is the one” (though she’s spoiled as hell), and his thoughts are absolutely not the same as when he lived at home and I was instructing him.
Supposedly, the older you get, the more you depend on your upbringing. I hope that is the case. If not, the future of my kid and future generations are in doubt.
Was a poor joke aimed at a typo.
Paula, now that you know who I am, tell us about yourself. How long have you been following TBP? I don’t recognize your name. (But then again, I’ve been really busy with work and can’t participate in the comments section as much as I used to.) What brought you here to begin with and why do you stay?
Paula is a bud of mine. VV, she is a sys.admin who worked with me at Boeing and now does cyber security stuff.
I send her a link once in a while to mess with E C.
And the stalker
OK, this has to be Maggie. Cyber security is becoming a big thing in Augusta, Georgia, due to Fort Gordon. (I live in South Carolina but I live very close to Augusta.) If your friend ever needs work, just tell her to come to Augusta.
She gets hired to try and hack sites. Is a weird gig.
She explained a bit about how I need to Protect my computer better. So..I..try.
I do not jump into links like I once did. She says TBP is pretty “tight” and MWNN knows his stuff.
Whatever that means.
She.taught me how to travel through a big network and also how to find lost files with a word searching tool.
I worked with writers from a couple locations and had to be able to go into their computer hard drives to delete OLD versions. Some of them would save the WRONG version.
So…I got chummy with Sys Admin. Got the passwords.
I was QC and boss editor for a while. Lol
Now I edit only if I want
Good to know TBP is tight. You never know. I just got caught up in the Equifax breach. Opted for the monitoring instead of the cash.
As far as editing, same here, only when I feel like it. (Unless I’m working, of course.)
Gotcha…
Maggie, all fun and games aside, with all your alleged physical problems shouldn’t you be sleeping. Really, you need to get your rest if you are going to recover from whatever great disease you claim to have at this particular time. It can’t be good for you to be up into the wee hours of the morning making up names and trying to keep them straight. As your doctor, and I am maggies doctor, I strongly suggest that you take those pills I prescribed for you and get some sleep. You will feel better in the morning. Of course, I can’t say for sure that the delusions will abate, but the SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) antidepressants should help you out quite a bit.
Just let me add that while taking those drugs it is best to limit your contact with large groups of people. Stick to slaughtering bunnies and possums as long as you can.
I told you that would prick Hollywood Rob’s ears. I think he’s psychic.
Psycho is more like it. I have enjoyed chatting with you VV.
It was great until self-annointed Big Brother showed. TTFN
Enjoyed the chat with you as well, Maggie.
At least he taught himself about hosted image links.
Lol…she read.a.couple of comments from Yo and asked me if I was nuts.
She has a.security clearance to worry about.
As.does my son.
That’s funny. I don’t consider Yo nuts. Just full of his own opinions. But security clearances can be a tricky thing.
She caught him on a heavy heil Hitler day.
Pangloss said that you are such a great contributor here that I should go back to my original name and quit playing with you so as to keep you from running off to Zerohedge or National Review.
He then sent me back to Dobie and said that EC has potential when he is serious,unlike Ecoli.

I tried but she wanted me to tell her If you were the marrying kind.
I said you were the COYOTE UGLY kind
“Barney Fife” singing,rapping,and story telling
Admin, non-swimmer on the beach. Now you know why they have that name.
Cut off the teat, cook the bacon. How hard is that? You would think people didn’t know meat comes from animals.
I’d like to thank everyone for their participation in Friday Fail. It’s a nice lighthearted end to a tough week to read and watch what’s presented. I always enjoy it.
And we have Mark now contributing, giving us fun jokes. But where is Lgr (did I spell that right?) and his funny jokes? Didn’t see him this time. T4C’s contribution is missed as well. Hope both are OK.
A vixen AND a nurse?Cheater
Beware, there are all sorts out there. Some good, some bad.
If E C shows today and hangs his sombrero on a peg, I will summon mypal for some banter not fit for primetime.
And,for reference, I am NOT V V either.
