Looks interesting but the link doesn'd work.

Posted by: keith in Montana at March 2, 2002 08:58 AM

That lowtax. First he beats will in the entertainment weekly poll and now BLATENTLY STEALS his site layout. Will the mockery never cease?

Yoho

Posted by: HE-LARIOUS! at March 2, 2002 08:59 AM

Prolly because it isn't a link. :-)

Posted by: gord at March 2, 2002 08:59 AM

Posted by: J at March 2, 2002 09:08 AM

SLICK.

But I didn't see any mention of _you_ sir!!!

And I want Adobe Deep Fryer!!!

Posted by: Joy at March 2, 2002 09:11 AM

Try this {www.somethingawful.com} that will get to where Wil is referring too.....hehe very nice dig with that layout thiefing. Gee, you would think they don't like you over there. How can that be everyone likes Wil, well, don't they. har har

Posted by: Bleu at March 2, 2002 09:11 AM

Nice parody.

Posted by: patrick bateman at March 2, 2002 09:13 AM

I think this is hilarious.

Sorry about the messed up no-linky. That's what I get for trying to make an entry while I'm still groggy, and just waking up, and laughing my ass off.

SA rules.

Posted by: wil at March 2, 2002 09:15 AM

Now he fixed it, it works! {as he says "aaaaaaaaaaw Crap"} hahahahaha

FOR WILL:

I know you said you listen to NPR a lot. You might find this interesting:

Ohhhmahhgawd... just what they warned us against in blog-writing school!

;)

Posted by: SpaceWriter at March 2, 2002 09:26 AM

Now THAT'S comedy!

Posted by: Max Dobberstein at March 2, 2002 09:26 AM

Wil,

My sides hurt from laughing! Too much humor this early in the morning! I guess it's a case of copying being the sincerest form of flattery.

Posted by: Rob at March 2, 2002 09:30 AM

ROFLMAO

This site and the people here never cease to make me laugh :)

Posted by: elfchick at March 2, 2002 09:31 AM

My favorite line: "...we decided to stop at McDonalds on the way home because I wanted to give Gladys a special treat."

Posted by: Greg at March 2, 2002 09:32 AM

The thing is, if you go to the real index page at SA, you will find links to the other fake pages they've done.

I'm really honored to be on that list.

Of course, it also means that my 15 minutes of internet-fame are totally up.

But I'll take the trade :)

Posted by: wil at March 2, 2002 09:34 AM

Wow! That was...insanely funny...I love a good parody.

Now I've got to e-mail that link to about 70 people!

:) Ya know you've made it when someone can put so much time into a hilarious mockery like that one!

Hey Wil..How's it going. I dunno if you saw this but it is a lil something I doodled for your amusement. Tootles.:)

Posted by: Artisticspirit at March 2, 2002 09:44 AM

*laughs* This is too funny!

I keep hearing Bugs Bunny saying "Of course, you know, this means war..."

So what are you going to do...? ;)

Posted by: Neurowiz at March 2, 2002 09:46 AM

Heh... wonder what Brice Beckham thinks of it... Whatever happened to him, anyway???

Posted by: Thumper at March 2, 2002 09:47 AM

Yeah, I think it's hilarious.....I'M GOING TO KILL YOU ALL!!! AAAAAAARRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Brice at March 2, 2002 09:52 AM

LMAO! This is great parody, love it. SA is awesome, and this affirms it yet again.

Check out Brice Beckham's IMDB entry:
http://us.imdb.com/Name?Beckham,+Brice

Heh hee.
"Two Teens and a Baby", 1991.

Posted by: Courtney at March 2, 2002 10:13 AM

gotta love the flattery.... not to mention it's funny as hell.

Posted by: ame at March 2, 2002 10:14 AM

Ummm....time for that ass-kicking css makeover? Otherwise... mildly amusing from SA

***THE BEEJ***

Posted by: Beej at March 2, 2002 10:23 AM

Very amusing. Thanks for the giggle!

Posted by: colin at March 2, 2002 10:29 AM

LoL!

Posted by: synchronicity at March 2, 2002 10:30 AM

Thats pretty good. Random as heck, but pretty good. Now if they'd only do one for Gary Coleman.

Posted by: Frank at March 2, 2002 10:33 AM

Hey Wil,

Why don't you do a parody of SAs main page?

Posted by: Ryan at March 2, 2002 10:42 AM

Oh no. Oh my. That is truly awful.

ROFLMAO!!!

Ryan: Oh yeah: NothingAwful.com appears to be available...and only
10 - 12 bucks to register at Joker.com. heh

Posted by: Mrs. Veteran at March 2, 2002 11:01 AM

Great to see the link now works, I THINK.

Very touching. HA!

But now we know what is wrong with Wil's site. He needs to get rid of that picture of him in the upper left corner and replace it with one from "Stand By Me". And since we are celebrating the birthday of Dr Suess, the recommended read should be his classic "Are You My Mother" and to Watch, "Horton Hears a Who."

Dear reader, just send my 2 cent consulting fee via paypal. HA.

Posted by: Keith in Montana at March 2, 2002 11:10 AM

Man, I wouldn't mess with Brice. Otherwise, he'll get his friends, Brian Bonsall and Danny Pintauro, to break you.

Posted by: Kimberly3 at March 2, 2002 11:32 AM

BOB UEKER???!!!

ROFLMAO

man, that pic was 100 times more scary than those pics where the sudden scream comes at you.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

heh

Posted by: Cherish at March 2, 2002 11:33 AM

you mean it's fake??? darnit... i was actually hoping Das Bert was a real movie.

(: pretty funny. and i'm curious what Brice Beckham might be up to now. i love the internet.

Posted by: christine at March 2, 2002 11:45 AM

okay...

now i get it...

:smacks herself on the forehead:

at first i actually believed it was a real thing.

man, do i feel stupid.

peace, love, and bubble-gum,

Streaks on the china
Never mattered before,
Who cares?

When you drop-kicked your jacket
When you came through the door...
No one glared

But sometimes things get turned around
And Wil Wheaten gets spoofed and it's pretty funny and after all only a measure of his immense online popularity and presence that we all knew exited before this anyway.

Wait. Those *aren't* the real "Mr. Belvedere" lyrics?

Oh, sorry. I still like these ones better.

Congrats, Wil!

Posted by: manon-it-all at March 2, 2002 12:03 PM

Cute spoof, there, Wil. :O)

Posted by: James at March 2, 2002 12:05 PM

Ok.. so that is pretty funny :)

The CD's and Books that adorn the right hand side are pretty hilarious - the Fonz's album 'Kid Aaaa' is smart :)

Posted by: Jim at March 2, 2002 12:52 PM

These people are obviously on some kind of
mind altering substance! Damn..I want some too!

Posted by: bluecat-redblanket at March 2, 2002 12:57 PM

i dont get it....anyone care to fill me in?

(just so ya know...i get the whole parody thing...but who is this person?)
HELP!

Posted by: colleen at March 2, 2002 01:25 PM

WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!

I cannot glimpse what I'm sure is a brilliant parody due to the fact that SA never seems to want to work on my computer! HELP!

Posted by: Radiofreewill at March 2, 2002 01:28 PM

I get this sinking feeling that those 2 12 year old girlies are becoming famous. I think the internet is now officially going to the dogs.

Posted by: Jun at March 2, 2002 01:29 PM

Now that's Funny---

How about that Connect Forty!!

Posted by: Andie G. at March 2, 2002 01:32 PM

Just so everyone knows.... Canadian Radio Shacks don't carry TornadoFire Robots.... I'd know... I work in one.... Heh....

Posted by: KarinAoi at March 2, 2002 03:06 PM

How come I'me hearing the that eerie music from Jaws in my head whist wondering what Das Bert is all about?

Posted by: Don at March 2, 2002 03:48 PM

Hmmm... I'me hearing the that...

It must be Bob Uekler staring at me.

Posted by: Don at March 2, 2002 03:50 PM

For the funniest part of all, mouseover the Adobe Deep Fryer ad.

Posted by: James at March 2, 2002 04:06 PM

Gladys sounds like a hot little firecracker of love.

Posted by: Fred Fowler at March 2, 2002 04:13 PM

Trivia: Did you know that Brice ALSO played Wesley? ... but on Mr. Belvedere

Coolness we have a Wesley equinox.

Posted by: Dani at March 2, 2002 04:35 PM

Bahahahah Love the spoof.

I had forgotten the "Other Wesley" I remembered the show but forgot the character names...

They may have both been "wesleys" but Wil vs Brice isnt even a contest, it's a slaughter.

Posted by: AMStrange at March 2, 2002 06:39 PM

i see mtv taking advantage of this. deathmatch anyone?

Posted by: wargoddess at March 2, 2002 07:17 PM

hm. so THAT'S what that kid's name was.

wonder if I'll remember it for more than 15 minutes.

Posted by: jbay at March 2, 2002 09:04 PM

I was actually startled when I saw the little banner until I realized it was a SA gag. I didn't know they were so smooth as to pick up and spoof the whole "Wesley" link between Wil and Brice; bravo to them for being all subtle and whatnot, that was pretty slick.

Man, though, I feel old at 25 for even remembering who Brice Beckham was. I watched Mr. Belvedere every week. I thought Rob Stone was cute.

*sigh*

I remembered that? I feel even older now.

Posted by: belle at March 2, 2002 09:51 PM

Haaaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha...

[::gibbers::]

Love it. Dig it.

Just remember, Wil, parody is the sincerest form of saying "you rock."

Posted by: hemlock martini at March 3, 2002 12:09 PM

Praise Jebus... that is hilarious.

Posted by: NNJ at March 3, 2002 12:35 PM

Now that was humor (Ar! Ar!)

Posted by: olafandy jon at March 4, 2002 05:39 AM

hmmmm.....who's next? Jeremy Licht, Chris Demetral or Corey Haim? If imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery, Wil, you should be "honored" that Brice found such a great site to mimic.

Posted by: Norbie at March 4, 2002 04:57 PM

Hey!

I for one LOVE Brice Beckham. So lay off him. :)

He's currently an artist in LA, in response to the early question. And I've always been dying to meet him or get his autograph!

And Rob Stone? :(

Brice Beckham got cute near the end, as he got older. Actually, when I was much younger, he was my first crush...I was probably 8 or so when that was in repeats.

Hehe. :)

Posted by: Jon Cruz at March 4, 2002 09:36 PM

I want a Connect Forty!!!!

Posted by: Wil has a posse at March 5, 2002 06:37 AM

Oh my god, that's f@#$ing hilarious! I thought for a second that it was real and then I realized every link led to somethingawful.com. I'm a tard ass. :o) I see the Wesley theme going here. Nice. :o) I wonder what Brice thinks of it. I bet he'd laugh his ass off, too. Well, if he has a good sense of humour about it. ;o) Nobody beats you and *your* posse, Wil! There is only one "wesley, the boy wonder!" :) hahaha...

peace, love, and "wesley" rules!
~ angie k

P.S. I wonder if it's all in the name. I remember thinking that Brice is hot, too. Maybe I'm attracted to people who play characters named wesley. Hmmm...

Posted by: angie k at March 5, 2002 07:16 AM

Hey Y'all...who is that guy that has the website like Wil's? I didn't read it because it seemed pretty lame that another "used to be famous" guy was trying to be like "complete hottie" Wil. Nobody could be like Wil...he's purely one of a kind....but anyway...WHO IS THAT GUY!?

Posted by: Jamie at March 5, 2002 10:08 PM

ROTFLMMFAO...holy crud...alright then...yes, that was funny...I honestly though that was a real website...ok so now that I feel thoroughly stupid...but anyway....cool...still...I want to know who Brice Beckman is.....

Posted by: Jamie at March 5, 2002 10:15 PM

this is ABSOLUTELY FUCKIN HILARIOUS! wil, you should collablorate with this guy on a joint project, as his sense of humor is very much like yours...after a few bottles of Robitussin DM. and how flattering to have such a brilliant parody of the site. this is very, very cool.

I'm laughing so hard right now. But I think I'm in love with Brice Beckham. Mmmm...Brice Beckham..
