#once-ler
Happy birthday, Ed Helms!

24th January is Ed Helms' birthday, so I drew this picture of The Once-ler, one of Helms' most *infamous* roles.

He also did Principal Krupp/Captain Underpants, Graham Pudowski and the Unnamed News Reporter.

What do we all think about my version of the OG 1972 Once-Ler? 🥃🚬

Back on twitter I constantly saw posts about people being in love with "Sylus" and thought they meant the bad guy from Metroid (Sylux), after googling it I learned about Love and Deepspace and I'm disappointed that there isn't some Once-ler-esque fandom for Sylux. That would have been hilarious.

You won't see the Once-ler.
Don't knock at his door.
He stays in his Lerkim on top of his store.
He lurks in his Lerkim, cold under the roof,
where he makes his own clothes
out of miff-muffered moof.

I'm going through my old doodles and putting these next to each other is funnier than it has any right to be

#bolu #bolukartalkaya #kartalkayayangın önce 66 ıydı, sonunda 78 kişi, #insan diri diri yandı, ihmaller, hırs ve para uğruna öldü(rüldü)ler. Şimdi gözyaşlı sadece anıyoruz, çoluk, çocuk giden canları hiçbiri geri gelmez insanları. Sonuç gidenler gitti, birkaç kurban seçilip mahpus edildi.

Yıllar yıllar önce (1984’ler) Nurcu’ların dersanesinde Müslüman olup Fatih ismini alan bir Alman gelmişti. Fatih bir taraftan Türkçe diğer taraftan da Arapça öğreniyordu.
Nurcuların Ali hoca diye bir abileri vardı.
Habire aklınca Fatih’le şakalaşıyordu.
(Kendisi de pantolon giyen ) Ali Hoca bir ara:

Is Sam Altman the Once-ler?

Other Dr. Seuss characters I see in Spamton: the Once-ler, not the one from 2012’s The Lorax, but the one from the 1972 short film.
It is no coincidence that I see the Grinch in Spamton.

Bundan yıllar önce. Yine böyle, ara karne tatil. Cuma günü. Karne verdiler. Karne karne değil, spor toto kuponu. 0'lar, 1'ler baştan aşağı yazılmış. Bir dersim 4 ama hangi ders hatırlamıyorum. Neyse. Sonra eve geldim. Karneyi evdekilere verdim. Karnem de 4 var diye, ev de herkes beni alkışlamıştı.

"failed to notice what a sore spot his mention of the murder had touched in Henry; nor, once he sensed its existence, could he have restrained himself from continuing to jab at it."

Nossa, como ele me irrita, juro! Não vejo a hora de ler a morte dele pqp insuportável

The Once-ler The Lorax 2012 absolutely undeniably positively pales in comparison to the aura of The Once-ler The Lorax 1972 how in the hell of it did the 2012 version of that character get to become a thing he’s so lame in comparison bruh 😭

"steve yegge or, as he was later known, the once-ler"

I did not bring up the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. I'm not sure it would have applied to the Once-ler, since as originally written it wouldn't seem to apply to habitat destruction. The Once-ler didn't hunt the Swomee Swans, he polluted their pond. Modern enviro law would cover that, but not pre-71.

My biggest laugh-getter of the night: "The Once-ler claims the Lorax 'lifted himself by the seat of his pants' and 'took leave of this place by a hole in the smog without leaving a trace.' [beat] Law enforcement considers this statement implausible and highly suspicious."

I, the old Once-ler, felt sad
as I watched them all go.
BUT…
business is business!
And business must grow
regardless of crummies in tummies, you know.

It’s enraging. I’ve been screaming about this for years and it’s been fingers in the ears. Thankfully, more and more folks are becoming aware. Think I’m gonna re-read “The Lorax.” #once-ler mindset

I just watched the Lorax because I've been OBSESSED with "How Bad Can I Be" lately, why do i wanna draw the once-ler now🥀

100 yıl önce olsa anlarım, 1980'ler bile olabilir; ama 2026 yılında yeniden, öğretmenler tayine zorlanıyor, dahası zorla tayin ettiriliyor. Zorla güzellik olmayacağını anlayanlar bundan vazgeçmişti. Şimdi bir de bunlar şansını deniyor. Onlar da anlayacaklar.
