August Megaparty #14: Who is Feito?

August Megaparty Survey: Who is Feito?

LUKE: Oh great, here comes Frank.

JASON: What's wrong with Frank?

LUKE: Dude, you kiddin? Watch and learn -- guy can't go five seconds without making up some ridiculous lie.

FRANK: What's up guys?! I invented the wheel!

LUKE: Frank, you DID NOT invent the wheel. Why you always making shit up?

FRANK: What are you talking about? I absolutely did too invent the wheel.

LUKE: Ever notice that nobody likes talking to you? Saying stuff like about how you invented the wheel, or what was it last time -- you control the weather? -- that's why nobody likes talking to you.

LUKE: Because you, sir, are one ugly four-armed lying fuck.

FRANK: You don't believe me?! Why wouldn't you believe me? I would never lie to my friends!

FRANK: So I ask myself, "Self? Do you have to take this abuse?" And I answer, "No! No, self! I don't have to take this abuse!" I'm leaving!

LATER:

FRANK: Hey! Hey you!

ZAPOW: Problem, pardnah?

FRANK: YEAH there's a problem! Ever since you pulled me out of that car wreck and saw signs of amnesia, I've trusted you to tell me who I was and what I am. But I'm starting to find it a little suspicious that NOBODY believes I invented the wheel, and NOBODY believes I can control the weather, and NOBODY believes that I once ran for the United States presidency but had to bail out early to save Mars from rogue Earth bats who learned how to survive out there. And I also find it a little weird that you know all of THAT about me, and yet, you don't know what my actual NAME is. And why'd you have to nickname me "Frank?" Everyone hates that name!

ZAPOW: You've said plenty. I need several hours to digest this.

SEVERAL HOURS LATER:

ZAPOW: Okay Frank, I don't know your real name, I admit it. But everything I've told you is true! Look, I don't know who you're talking to out there, but I know this much about 'em: They're jealous. And why not? Wouldn't you be jealous of some random guy who invents wheels, saves planets and makes it rain? I mean, hell, even I'm jealous, and like I've told you before, I'm secretly God. Wheels, planet-saving, weather...all that, and your eyes are made of pure gold to boot!

FRANK: My eyes are made out of pure gold?

LATER:

ELEPHANTONY: Get adda here, ye bum! Ye eyes, they not be made of gold! Foul liar is this!

ROBOT: When matters do not compute, we robots say FUCK YOU FOR LYING, LIAR!

FRANK: My life coach said you'd be jealous. But it doesn't make this hurt any less.

LATER:

FRANK: The only way I'm going to feel better about today is by reading a good book.

FRANK: Today is my lucky day. "Shiny As A Droid!" A storybook that will give me things to see, touch and smell from a galaxy far, far away!

FRANK: Alien paw fuzzy. Fuzzy not so much like a real alien paw, but like a pool table. Alien paw like a pool table.

FRANK: Oooh! Exotic alien fungus smells like carrots eaten up and shit out by a masochistic creature who lines his own intestinal track with foul smelling poison!

FRANK: When I pen my great rock anthem, the first line will be, "I'm surfin' the stars like a beach bum on Mars." The second and third lines probably won't top it.

ZAPOW: You wrote that book, you know.

FRANK: I wrote "Shiny As A Droid?" Holy crap I'm awesome.

ZAPOW: Yeah, and since you wrote it, your real name should be somewhere on the front cover. Unless you used a pseudonym, which would suck, because you probably would've made your pseudonym sound like a real name, and then, we might never know for sure if the name we see on the front cover was legit or a handle you made up to discourage stalkers.

FRANK: Anything's better than "Frank."

FRANK: Virginia Holt. My name is Virginia Holt? I'm a girl?

FRANK: I guess the only question left is, "Who the fuck is Feito?"

FRANK: Feito! Here boy! Whee whoo whip whip! C'mere Feito! WHO ARE YOU FEITO? FEITO, TELL ME MY STORY I NEEEEED TO KNOW!

Your Mission: Continue this Story.
Give Feito an identity and tell us his story. How does he fit into the scheme of things? Who is Feito?

Feito was of the species Ovion, an insect-like race of carnivores that were native to the planet Carillon. During a galactic war between humans and cybernetic automatons, they were almost completely destroyed. A small group of survivors slowly made their way across the galaxy in an intergalactic transport that looked remarkably like a 1957 Chevy Bel-Air convertible. During the course of their travels, one Ovion was ejected due to bogarting the last of a precious herbal compound that, upon ingestion, assisted them in dealing with the trauma of getting their collective asses kicked. (Footnote: an Ovion’s funky vest was made from the fibrous matter of this oranic compound). Another was unfortunately killed when he decided to car surf while traveling through the C-Beams of the Tannhauser gate, a few lightyears south of the shoulder of Orion. Yet another Ovion became deceased after they picked up what seemed to be an attractive hitchhiker which shared many similar insect-like traits to the Ovion species and was soon consumed by this insectoid whore. The Ovions had been away from their kind so long that this unfortunate Ovion did not remember that oral sex amongst his species always led to being eaten, quite literally. On approach to a solar system consisting of nine planets, he turned on his quantum communicator to detect life-forms. There were many messages floating through space. Unfortunately, many were scrambled and appeared to be naked humanoid forms with a breast, ass or penis occassionally visible through the scrambled image. As he continued to scour different channels, he came across a visual historical record chronicling the intense battle between a group of humanoids and automatons against a tall, black and metallic humanoid with subservient white-armored slaves that could not shoot straight. After watching this visual record, this Ovion went to sleep and had troubled dreams involving the human-shaped and bucket-like automatons. When he awakened, he drew these nightmarish images on napkins that were stuffed in his intergalactic glove compartment. He soon realized that he had been driving without paying attention to the galaxy and promptly ran into a planet. Due to the fact that his galactic cruising vessel looked like a cruising vessel driven by the indigenous life of that planet, suspicions were not raised that it was of extra-terrestrial origin. A human female by the name of Virginia Holt happened upon the crash and found the Ovion drawings. She promptly took them with the plan of incorporating them into a children’s book that she had written. Her publisher had publicly humiliated her by stating that she "couldn’t even draw flies if she was made of cowshit". She saw this has her ticket to success. She did not realize, however, that Feito had signed his drawings while practicing his humanoid-style writing. When this was addressed by her publisher, she lied. Ms. Holt told him that he was a Spanish artist friend of hers that had unjustly died at the hands of a 3-legged goat and that she wanted to pay tribute to him by publishing this book.

Later, Feito awakened and found himself being scrutinized by a large, helmet-wearing humanoid. "Hello, I’m God", announced this human.

"Where am I?", asked Feito the Ovion. "More imporantly, who am I?"

"Hmm, sit back, my smelly insectoid friend. Let me catch you up on your life so far…….."

I am Feito.

Mystery solved.

Chestnuts roasted by jazzy @ 08/15/2006 1:38 PM


So on a slightly more serious note, it turns out that "feito" is a Portuguese word. According to an online dictionary, it may be translated variously as "shaped, made, stereotyped, vicarious, done, deed, feat, accomplishment, activity." I’m not entirely sure how this ties in with the mystery, but at least we’ve learned that the poor old Portuguese have to get a lot of mileage out of their vocabulary words. Perhaps they’ve only got a couple dozen available to them. The rest were probably stolen by the French or the Spanish, or any of the other nations who make a living abusing the Portuguese from the Imperial Romans on up.

So here’s what we know:

1. Feito may be a word rather than a name. The possible meaning of "vicarious" is especially interesting in this context. Perhaps it denotes an illustrator who wanted a fat paycheck from Lucas but didn’t want his good name connected with "Shiny-assed Droid."

2. Whoever Feito may be, he or she has never seen C-3PO, judging by the illustration on the cover. At best, C-3PO has been described to them second-hand, perhaps by a mentally challenged child or Larry King.

3. Feito will not stop until we are all dead.

It is truly wow, how much some have been able to write about the mystery behind Feito. To be honest I only read the shorter ones.
Now, I believe Feito is the short guy from Fantasy Island. He is using a pen name for his illustration work because he likes to keep it on the down low.

During a galactic war between humans and cybernetic automatons, the Ovion of the planet Carillon were almost completely destroyed. A small group of survivors slowly made their way across the galaxy in an intergalactic transport that looked remarkably like a 1957 Chevy Bel-Air convertible.

On the course of their travels, 3 of the 4 Ovions met inauspicious deaths. One Ovion was ejected due to bogarting the last of a precious herbal compound that, upon ingestion, assisted them in dealing with the trauma of getting their collective asses kicked. (Footnote: an Ovion’s funky vest was made from the fibrous matter of this organic compound).
Another was unfortunately killed when he decided to car surf while traveling through the C-Beams of the Tannhauser gate, a few light years south of the shoulder of Orion.
Yet another Ovion became deceased after they picked up what seemed to be an attractive hitchhiker which shared many similar insect-like traits to the Ovion species. He was soon consumed by this insectoid whore after she reportedly told him, "ekha seh wertad", which translates to "I like to swallow". The Ovions had been away from their kind so long that this unfortunate Ovion did not remember that oral sex amongst his species always led to being eaten, quite literally.

After watching this visual record, this Ovion went to sleep and had troubled dreams involving the human-shaped and bucket-like automatons observed in the message. When he awakened, he drew these nightmarish images on napkins that were stuffed in his intergalactic glove compartment.

He soon realized that he had not been paying attention to the galaxy and promptly ran into a planet. Due to the fact that his galactic cruising vessel looked like a cruising vessel driven by the indigenous life of that planet, suspicions were not raised that it was of extra-terrestrial origin.

She did not realize, however, that the Ovion had written "Feito", which translates to "Fuck you in your insect-mandibled ass", on the drawings out of boredom and latent neglected libido. When this was addressed by her publisher, she lied. Ms. Holt told him that "Feito" was a Spanish artist friend of hers that had unjustly died at the hands of a 3-legged goat and that she wanted to pay tribute to him by publishing this book.

"Hmm, sit back, my smelly insectoid friend. Let me catch you up on your life so far…….."

The fact that book was ever given shelf time in a store gives me hope that one day, I too will be a published writer. Of course, I’ll have to sell out and write a book about Care Bears or um, Smurfs. What year is this? Where am I?

Feito is the illustrator’s nickname for his big toe.

Chestnuts roasted by Julie @ 08/15/2006 5:47 PM


Feito is an accomplished artist. He studied under the accomplished wing of Bob Ross (of PBS fame). Feito began his career learning how to make happy little things appear on a blank canvas. This still, somehow, left an emptyness inside him. He somehow felt he was not living up to his true ptential.

Feito: I just can’t feel this painting, Bob. I have the happy trees, the cozy little brook, and I have faked messing up my painting five or six time just to make the blob of nothingness into a fucking waterfall complete with a house and six baby chicks.

Bob Ross: You need to calm down Feito, here hit this.

Feito (Holding Breath): Pffft I am serious man. Shooo I wan;t to be able to FEEL what I am creating. I need to SEE, TOUCH, and SMELL my creation.

Bob Ross: I don’t think you need to hit this anymore Feito, you are fucking freaking me out. Just paint the damn picture, you are reading too much into this.

Feito: You just don’t understand me Bob. George Lucas saw where I was coming from and he thinks it would make a great idea for a new book.

Bob Ross: O.K., now I know you are higher than Hulk Hogan’s hairline.

Freito: Screw you Bob, you will see. YOU WILL SEE!

So Feito set out to create his masterpiece, SHINY AS A DROID. Which contained some of the most original interactive artwork ever created. this trademark set by Feito would reach all the way into the galaxy and into other Solar Systems. Eventually, the book itself would make its way to Eternia. There Zapow would use it to comfort himself during his nighttime bedwetting episodes. Eventually, Zapow would find a new outlet to vanquish his nocturnal liquid frustrations. Giving an amnesiac alien an identity crisis. Freito, amidst all this, still resides here on Earth. He will unknowingly particioate in the Anihilation of Earth at the hands of one seriously motherfuckin’ cunfused alien named Frank

Hey, Matt—

Regrettably, I’m going to have to miss out on the rest of the August Megaparty due to computer problems beyond my control. See the link in my name for more.

This is the last you bloggers will probably hear from me until September, I’m sad to say….

"Feito" is the name of the machine that illustrates all the board and little, little kids’ books based on TV and movie characters.

Chestnuts roasted by starwenn @ 08/15/2006 7:48 PM


I don’t know who Feito is, but I’m Frito. Heh.

Oh, and who is the character "Frank" in the story? Like, what is the actual toy? I remember having it as a kid and it was one of my favorites that always went swimming with me at the YMCA. I’d just like to know more about it since I had when I was very young and have no idea why my parents got it for me in the first place.

Ahh, the memories. Thanks Matt!

Chestnuts roasted by Frito @ 08/15/2006 8:31 PM


Feito is … Frank’s father!

On a slightly more serious note, Luis Feito is a Spanish artist in the Abstract Expressionist school. Born in 1929, he’s still alive. He founded ‘El Paso’, the Barcelona based collective of expressionists and informalists at the vanguard of Spanish art in the late 1950s.

Luis Feito´s brief period as a figurative artist ended in the early 1950s, when, after discovering Cubism, he entered into the sphere of abstract art. In 1956, Feito was awarded a grant by the French government and moved to Paris, where he found inspiration in automatic art and L’Art Brut and Assemblage pioneered by artists such as Jean DuBuffet. He began mixing sand with his thick oil paints and employing a reduced palette of black, white and ochre. In the early 1960s, Feito started to introduce a fourth , red, and his work slowly began more geometric. In 1981 he left Paris for Montreal, where he stayed until 1983, when he moved to New York.

Think I’m kidding? I just plagarized this from http://www.picassomio.com/luisfeito/en

Who knew he would have time to (poorly) illustrate children’s books?

On an unrelated note, I hope no one’s crotch has caught on fire from their Dell. Check them batteries, kiddies.

Feito is wondering what the hell Poop is talking about. Like ever. Was that an attempt to stay on topic, by throwing Feito into that space-time anomoly you call a post?

Chestnuts roasted by Knegative @ 08/15/2006 9:59 PM


Knegative: In all fairness, you are criticizing the random element of a comment written in response to an article consisting of a four-armed toy alien named Frank trying to learn his identity from a roided-out action figure with a rip-off Juggernaut helmet and a God complex. A little perspective, is all.

Feito is a creature with portholes where gold and salt come out.

I concur, in part, with bren. Whatever the answer is, I’m sure it involves Krang; anything this convoluted would have to.

Chestnuts roasted by Hoverbored @ 08/16/2006 5:58 AM


Feito is actually the brother of Kuato (of Total Recall fame). As far as outer appearance goes , Feito looks exactly the actor Marshall Bell (they are in fact exact twins) with the small exception that while Kuato received the ‘mutated, psychic, left sided brain’ / upperbody / torso, Feito instead has 2 tiny legs, a pelvis and two micro-penises (a commone affliction to mutant nether-regions as he was one often witnessed getting double jug-tugs from the 3 breasted hookers.). Feito was very skilled with his toes, much like any other simians, and his illustrations often resembled scenes taken from his young life on Mars. He was well recognized for his talents and Cohaagen himself once remarked of a tribute mural Feito had made for the former OCP exec ‘God damn mutie. You’re exactly right. I finally DO have what I want, and I WILL give these people air.’ Ultimately Cohaagen reneged on the offer further upsetting Feito and forcing the young mutant to leave Mars for greener pastures/planets. Feito currently resides on Venus and in his spare time draws comic strips for heavy metal. And droids.
