VeryHappyPig remembers when the only thing that mattered about a sporting jersey was the crest that hovered over your heart whilst you sported it with pride.

The Real Punk Rockers…… Where Did They Ever Go!
Now when we say the real “Punk Rockers” we’re talking about the guys who used to hang around city centres in the 80’s and 90’s…… the guys and girls who had hair which was about as tall as the average 12 year old and had more colours in it than a crayon set….. The guys and girls who wore jeans which were ripped to shreds, manky dirty and looked like they wouldn’t fit one of their legs, never mind two.
Veryhappypig was a punk rocker deep down but never had that cash to live the dream! Plus, I was as bald as an egg since hitting puberty at the age of 8!

MacGyver The Man With The Master Plan! Pig+Rasher=Atom Bomb! Makes Sense!
VeryHappyPigs is not proud to admit but In the mid to late 80’s VHP began to become somewhat disappointed with Television especially its Saturday evening efforts. Its constant repeats of fantasy Island and Charlie’s Angels not only bored VHP but also threatened to harm the status of such classics.
VeryHappyPig will be up all night watching repeat after repeat of his hero! What a man..What a God Dam one hell of a man!!

The Lovable Yogi Bear... The Fact Behind The Fiction..
Yogi Bear is a fictional anthropomorphic bear who appears in animated cartoons created by Hanna-Barbera Productions. He made his debut in 1958 as a supporting character in The Huckleberry Hound Show. He was the first break-out character created by Hanna-Barbera Studios, and was eventually more popular than Huckleberry Hound. In 1961 he was given his own show, The Yogi Bear Show, which also included the segments Snagglepuss and Yakky Doodle. Hokey Wolf replaced his segment on The Huckleberry Hound Show. A musical animated feature film, Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!, was produced in 1964.
VeryHappyPig is shocked at the pile of crap I just wrote! Although.... it is true! Sort of.... Ah no, it's all a load of crap!

Winnie The Pooh And Friends! The Piggy Facts!!!
Here’s some facts about The Honey Bear! In 1961, Walt Disney Productions licensed film and other rights to the characters, stories and trademarks from Stephen Slesinger, Inc., and The Estate of A.A. Milne and made a series of cartoon films about him. The early cartoons were based on several of the original stories and the distinctive images made popular by Stephen Slesinger, Inc. during the 1930s through 1960s.
VeryHappyPig is shocked at this new revelations! Shocked! Oh just in case you were wondering is this true.. Its 100% true! If true meant false!

The Smurfs Weird Little Blue Things! Why Did They Stop!? We Know!
Here’s the Smurfie facts! The Smurfs (Les Schtroumpfs) are a fictional group of small, sky blue creatures who live in Smurf Village somewhere in the woods. The Belgian cartoonist Peyo introduced Smurfs to the world in a series of comic strips, making their first appearance in the Belgian comics magazine Le Journal de Spirou on October 23, 1958. The English-speaking world perhaps knows them best through the popular 1980s animated television series from Hanna-Barbera Productions, The Smurfs.
VeryHappyPig says I always knew those little blue things were up to no good! And in the words of the best priest ever, Father Ted, “Down with that sort of thing!”

Betty Boop..... Every Boys Dream! Until Now!
Betty Boop is an animated cartoon character designed by Grim Natwick, appearing in the Talkartoon and Betty Boop series of films produced by Max Fleischer and released by Paramount Pictures. With her overt sexual appeal, Betty was a hit with filmgoers, and despite having been toned down in the mid-1930s, she remains popular today. She has been featured in two different comic strips, one in the 1930s and another in the 1980s. Now they're all the facts about the sexy legend..... Or so you thought! Again, VeryHappyPig has the real inside story!
VeryHappyPig says wow! This is the most amazing piece of crap I have ever written! Yeah me!!

The Black Eye, Also Know As A Shiner! The Bigger, The Better!
There was not a prouder moment in a young man's life than walking into school supporting a proper, big shiner! It was a statement, saying.... look at me, I’m not the most popular in the class but look at me,this is my moment, I was in a serious scrap and this is the trophy! You would walk the corridors and the yard of the school with your head held high, so everyone who passed you would have a look on their face as if to say “Wow that lad is hard, wonder how he got that Shiner”!
VeryHappyPig says I used to get proper 'Shiners', I was hard as nails!....... I usually gave them to myself but still I was hard!

Shoulder Pads, What The Hell Were They All About!
Look at any dodgy old photos in your house and you are sure to find one with a family member sporting a set of serious shoulder pads which made them look like they spend hours every day in the gym, just working on their upper body! Women especially, took advantage of the tower block look! I think I can talk for everyone when I say, they were just down right awful! They seemed to be a particular favourite of busy business women who liked to wear the biggest pads under a stylish shirt, it was fashion statement for them.... saying “The more successful I get, the bigger my shoulders get!
VeryHappyPig says piggy facts will never stand up in a court of law, so it's probably best to bypass them during legal proceedings! In other words, they're completely and utterly inaccurate, 100% of the time!
