In related news, Heaven help you if you try to steal my TIKI PUNCH (TM).

Okay. Props to the headline, subby. That was a good one.

I thought I'd find you here. After all... I know where you live.

The mind boggles at the number of young farkers who won't get the reference in the headline.

And I demand each and every one of them to start getting the hell off my lawn.

What a tiki may actually looks like:

Whoever nicked it is in for some bad makutu; if you steal a taonga, you're be sorry.

It's sad. I saw this and started looking for the episodes online, only to find out that tvland.com can't show them anymore (new window).

The really sad part? I could have watched them 5 days ago... Their license expired on 11/20/2009.

But TV Land still had descriptions of the episodes:

Had a girl and she did me wrong
I didn't let that kinda shaite go on too long
Split the clouds and divided the sea
Showed that evil girl how nasty the tiki god could be
She didn't call no more nor bother me
My little tiki god made sure I'd live in peace
One day I read they found a body in the river
Tiki God, why you make me shake, you make me shiver

I got a Tiki God... saves me... I got a Tiki God

Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble
Had no idea it would cause so much trouble
When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean
There was a rumble, an awful commotion
Don't ask me how, but the tiki found Bobby
He thought the idol was some Hawaiian hobby
Turned out the god was mean and vicious
Didn't respond to Bobby's 3 wishes

He had a Tiki God... saves him... He had a Tiki God

So when you're caught up in an evil plot
Your life's in danger and you can hear the shot
Your head is spinning and your fading fast
How long do you think this kinda fun can last
Your luck will change with a simple motion
I found my idol in a bottle in the ocean
He splits the clouds and divides the sea
And shows those evil guys how nasty those tiki gods can be, all right

He had a Tiki God... saves him... He had a Tiki God

Just don't forget to always make sure your foot is not in your flip flop before closing the suitcase.

Not really... Easter Island counts, they're just huge

Tiki refers to large wood and stone carvings of humanoid forms in Central Eastern Polynesian cultures of the Pacific Ocean. The term is also used as it relates to Māori mythology where Tiki is the first man.

In Polynesian mythology (specifically: Maori), Tiki is the first man, created by either Tu Matauenga or Tane. He found the first woman, Marikoriko, in a pond. She seduced him and he became the father of Hine-Kau-Ataata. Also in Polynesian mythology, a tiki or hei tiki is a kind of sculpture which results in a carving in the shape of a god. Each tiki houses a spirit. The creation of tikis is known from all over Polynesia.

According to Easter Island (Rapa Nui) legend, Hotu Matu'a, the first chief brought along a moai symbolizing ancestors, which became the model for the large moai. Dr. Jo Anne Van Tilburg of the Easter Island Statue Project at UCLA, opines that the first tiki, or stone statues, originated on Rapa Nui, although some contend that the first statues originated in the Marquesas or Austral Islands in present day Tahiti (French Polynesia).


I hate quoting wiki, just too lazy to care

Yes you are wrong - it was George Glass.

Archmage of Mampang: taonga

sorry, that may be what a hei tiki made in pounamu looks like, but the article clearly states that it was whale bone. while there are many historical jade tikis known, jade is still fairly easy for maoris to come by. whale bone is much harder. the maori are one of the few indigenous tribes still allowed to harvest whale bone, although only from dead, beached whales. much, much harder to replace. this doesn't speak to the innate historical value of the piece itself. i truly hope she gets it back as it's more than likely priceless. seeing how it was whale bone it was probably a patu or mere rather than a hei tiki.

oh, and the brady tiki was a painted POS cocoa joe's. not to mention not a kapu tiki at all, but rather a Ku style.

anyway, that's your tiki lesson for the day.
