Why Blythe Baxter is Awesome!
- She’s cute.
- She has a large head, and you know what they say about people with large heads…they have a hard time shopping for hats.
- She was originally a fashion doll from the 1970’s. Incredibly well-preserved, don’t you think?
- She’s voiced by Ashleigh Ball. Anyone who shares a voice with Rainbow Dash has got to be cool.
- She’s cute.
- She can talk to animals. I can talk to animals too, but they don’t talk back.
- She has a seemingly never-ending assortment of hairstyles and outfits. Most cartoon characters only get 1 outfit, or all of their clothes just look the same.
- She’s cute.
- She has a dumb waiter in her bedroom, whereas most of us just have dumb waiters at our local Chili’s.
- How many other people can pull off a polka dotted scooter?
- Did I mention she’s cute??

- She built 2 little robot sidekicks who (literally) sing her praises.
- She’s invented devices which make Apple look like a flea market.
- She invented a device which could destroy the universe. Not that she ever would, but just in case…

Why Robin is Awesome!
Hello and welcome to a new segment on Twinsanity entitled Why (blank) is Awesome!, in which we list the things we like about our favorite characters. Think of this as a sneak preview; a little sample of some of the new stuff you can expect from us in 2014. First up:
WHY ROBIN IS AWESOME!
- He’s the leader of the Teen Titans, despite not having any superpowers. Powers are cool, but if you can kick ass without them, well…
- He gets to live in a giant T.
- He’s a talented circus acrobat. Think a butt-kicking Flying Wallenda.
- He can wear a combination of Christmas tree colors (red, yellow and green) and pull it off.
- He was trained by the goddamn Batman.
- That stylin’ black-and-yellow-cape.
- The spiky hair, man. Chicks dig the hair.
- He’s mastered several martial arts, having sparred with a bear, a snake, a monkey and the True Master herself. Take that, Kung Fu Panda!
- He has a keen understanding of various sciences, like computing, physics and chemistry, and is a skilled mechanic and engineer, building all of his own gadgets and equipment. Who says nerds don’t make good superheroes?
- He rides a tricked out red cycle with jet-thrusters and his initial stamped on it.
- Birdarangs, baby. Birdarangs.
- He once went into battle wearing a Gatchaman style outfit, unironically.
- He owns a collapsible metal staff, which can be split into 2 Eskrima sticks. You can’t get that at Sports Authority.
- He owns energy disks which can explode, shock or emit foam. And play mp3s.
- He’s dated both Starfire and Batgirl.
Play on, playa.
