There's two types of people on Tapology: those who know what Castle Grayskull is, and those who don't. Thankfully it has no bearing on how you are likely to perform in this competition.

Good luck, folks.  We are no longer going to wait for the prior contest to wrap up before getting things rolling on the next weekend's competition.

The winner will be eligible to pick the theme for the competition 2 weeks from now.

I don't know what Castle Greyskull is. I think that might be a bad thing.

As always, Wikipedia delivers a nice summary.

Castle Grayskull is a legendary/mythical location situated in a barren wilderness. It serves as home to The Sorceress and to the mysterious and rarely-seen Spirit of Grayskull, as well as a place of refuge for He-Man and all those considered his friends. Its origins are unknown except for the fact that it was constructed to protect an unspecified source of power from those who would misuse it. It is a frequent target for the forces of evil.

@Gregory He-Man? I've heard of him, he's that blonde cartoon character that did gay things on his show right?

I don't know guys, I grew up in the era of Pokemon, Digimon and Dragonball Z. Gimme a break.

EDIT: Just researched a bit, Goku was a kid in the original Dragonball? MIND = BLOWN.

Sorry, I loved He-Man as a kid... but I'm going to make fun of it by posting up this "***" vid my friend showed me years ago.

@Live2wrestle I used to watch the Nostalgia Critic, and he devoted a whole episode on He-Man that I vaguely remember. I do remember the Critic pointing out a lot of "****sexual tendencies" that He-Man had.

And no I did not, I watched Dragon Ball Z in my kid years. Goku was big and super ripped and ******* awesome and his kid was Gohan, who was eh, kind of a *****. Goku and Vegeta man, those two were the ******* ****.

Well it's not like I watch Dragon Ball Z nowadays. I watched that when I was younger, at 4:30. I wouldn't be able to pick up on the episodes now, let alone Dragon Ball.

I'll catch an occasional Pokemon episode though, but only the Kanto and Johto Leagues. After that, the Pokemon look ******* ********. Like they got spikes and **** and they look so ******* complicated and weird.

What gay things did He-man do? Muscled physiques equals gay these days, all MMA fighters must be gay.

@kalibo voltron was awesome! I had a couple of those too, I think they were the ones that were part of that recall because they had lead paint in them
