COUSIN LARRY vs BALKI

Balki gets no respect, and as a result a) is likely to be underestimated and b) has nothing to lose. Besides, his only disadvantage is that he is socially awkward in America. that doesn't mean he don't know which nuts to kick.

Cousin Larry, on the other hand, is caution and anxiety incarnate, which adds up to a lousy fighter.

I'll take Cousin Larry on this. Ya, he is the very skittish and neurotic but he actually tends to share many of the traits of a super villian - not much to look at, but a very paranoid and calculating person who is more likely to kill you on the way to the fight than actually taking you one on one.

I bet Cousin Larry knows the best offense is defense & trickery - and let's not confuse ourselves, Balki was shitting in a hole in the ground a week before coming to the US - he couldn't identify a trap if there were big blinking signs pointing it out.

If we take the time to examine the depth of each's character I think you will also find Balki provides no real challenge to Larry who spends his time duking it out in the treacherous business world.

...but Larry's bunny shoes and Balki's prickly pear skin make we wonder if I too am underestimating Balki...

Unfortunately, I've seen Balki on The Surreal Life in which he showed no sense of decency or pride as he chased this horrible "woman" creature around the house while panting like a cocker spaniel in heat.

Because he has no pride, I'm gonna say that Balki would simply cower and bawl in pain whilst pleading with Cousin Larry to stop kicking his ass. I'm sure by this point Cuz has staked out some prime real estate choices and is filthy rich and livin' it up. He doesn't care about his lack of stardom 'cos The Cuz is cool with being rich and having his choice of his female fans. All two of 'em.





Did everybody catch my "whilst"? I'm pretty proud of that.
