  1. As a Welsh-Canadian kid who grew up fairly terrified of #MrBlobby, I cannot express how horrified I was when I realized that #Gritty is essentially Mr Blobby’s fuzzier, more unstable American cousin. Especially since I fucking ADORE Gritty. I guess I now understand the Blobby fans in some way. #NHL #PhiladelphiaFlyers #NHLPlayoffs

  2. I could literally watch this forever on a loop and never NOT be laughing out loud with tears in my eyes!

  3. Putting flags up on random lamp-posts is still really fashionable in the #UK at the moment

    People doing it say that it's a celebration of being #british and _definitely_ not a poorly concealed attempt to make anyone feel unwelcome.

    So, I think I'm going to get into the spirit and order some #flags.

    After all, what could be a better celebration of #britishness than putting a #MrBlobby flag up next to every St George's cross that I see?

    Wonder if they do bulk discount:

  8. Which brings us to the Christmas number one.

    In another universe, it's "Pray", the most dull and tedious and heteronormative song ever recorded.

    This universe? The first properly upbeat Christmas number one since 1987, and only the second original song since 1985.

  9. Continuing the short series of Novelty songs that were UK chart hits. I think this annoying song was a Christmas Number one.

  14. #DreamLog, weird vibe turned horror

    I was walking up a roadside in an old stone-built town; one of my feet was numb so I was having to drag it.

    Up ahead, a car decorated as a giant #MrBlobby float turned onto the road and drove away from me. I laughed, assuming it was a student prank.

    When I reached the junction, suddenly all the cars were Blobbys, at various artistic levels. I tried to take off my gloves to use my phone camera but they wouldn't come off.

    I struggled, but… blobby blobby blo—

  15. Dangit, I've just discovered my Blobby Horror fic is no longer the most read #MrBlobby fic on AO3 XD

    I'll take consolation that at least mine was the first non-shitpost Blobby fic up there 😅

  16. So I tried to get Stable Diffusion to create an image of beloved 1990s UK TV character Mr Blobby...the results are more nightmare fuel than the real thing...

    BLOBBY 2025: "THE ART OF CHAOS"

    Noel Edmond's portrayal of Dr Nemesis is an absolute triumph!

    “Some commentators have called him a metaphor for a nation gone soft in the head. Others have seen him as proof of Britain's deep-seated attraction to trash. Mr. Blobby "is not some aberration of taste but an intrinsic part of British culture," one columnist wrote in The Sunday Times of London, adding, "But it's not the part we like to boast about, especially around the Americans." “

  19. Love the anecdote from the wonderful Self Esteem at the end of this Mr Blobby costume auction article:

    “It doesn’t get better than that, does it? That day when I met Mr Blobby… I don’t need anything else now. You know they used to put the voice on it? The vocoder? Obviously they didn’t have that, so the guy in the suit was trying not to make any noise. When I hugged him he’d just be like, ‘blobby blobby’ in a normal man’s voice. Poor guy.”

  20. Seeing as it was #MrBlobby 's 30th birthday and the fediverse hasn't yet seen it, here is the "fan" fic blobby horror story that I wrote a few years ago after having a fever dream set in the #DoctorWho universe. I called it "Tears of Gunge."

    Reactions ranged from "Oh you legend" to "oh fuck, that is truly horrific." You shouldn't read it.
