…the beat(ers) go on…

In the real world, that would be bloody dangerous.

This reminds me of the old classic: Hardware Wars

Listen, I avoid even walking by there…

Never accept an invitation to a “party mixer” at Rudy and Dwight’s house.

With paws instead of hands, Rudy knows Dwight usually has him beat.

“Not fair” he thinks (reasonably enough) “If I only had opposable thumbs, too, I could give that guy a whippin’!”

Looks like an old-fashioned beat-down.

Safety first. I’m glad to see that they are both sporting protective eye-gear.

They are mixing it up.

Rudy and Dwight’s own home version of Battlebots – Batterbots.

Mother must not be home and the children are at play.

Dueling mixers

I really want to know where Jerry gets his drugs, they’re way better than mine.

Rock ’em sock ’em mixers! Get yours today kids.

Gladys needs to turn off the electricity when she goes out shopping.

When they both have grinders on their “wheels”, it makes for a more interesting Chariot Race… (Ben Furr?)

Setting up a combat arena to try this today !

Dwight is at a disadvantage being left handed and using a right handed mixer.

How to add that element of danger missing from most board games.

What’s this? whisks at ten paces!!!

WHIP IT! Whip it good…

I’m glad they’re both wearing eye protection. Those egg beater blades can give a nasty cut.

Rudy and Dwight seem to have a different twist on getting together for a mixer

Mr. Van Amerongen you CRACK ME UP AHAHAHAHAHA

That looks pretty dangerous, but if they remember this is just a cartoon, they should be fine.
