About The Goonfather

An entire page has been dedicated to the Goonfather here because he’s a regular feature on my blog and because people keep thinking that he’s my father.

Duh.

Please note that the Goonfather is:

  • My significant other
  • My chauffeur, handyman, IT support, entertainment, slave, ATM machine (I wish)
  • A goon

Here’s an old anecdote I wrote in April 2005 which will shed light on the choice of name:

In other news, the boyfriend recently acquired Patrizio Buanne’s The Italian. It’s made up of mostly classic Italian hits (including the theme song from The Godfather) and a few English oldies.

So, he was playing it in the car today when he suddenly said chirpily, “I feel like I’m the mafia, driving a black BM and listening to Italian songs!”

“Uh-huh,” I said, giving my usual enthusiastic response to his nonsense.

“Damn, this is cool,” he said, as he rocked to the beat.

“Uh-huh,” I told him.

“I am the GOONFATHER!” he said.

“That’s right, you’re a goon,” I assured him.

“Yah, my BM is not big enough so I can’t be the Godfather.”

With a boyfriend like this, who needs children?

And here are some popular blog posts highlighting his goon factor (in order of title length because it’s fun to do that):

  1. I have a question to the GoonFather: Do you play GTA?

  2. The GoonFather says:

  3. MikeM says:

  4. Girl says:

  5. modchip says:

  7. The GoonFather says:

    Yea. I do play GTA. The first version on PC, then on Liberty City Stories on PSP, now waiting for GTA4 for PS3 which should be available very very soon.

  8. modchip says:

  17. The Goonfather says:

  20. KenMcGormick says:

    Let him make you an offer you can’t refuse

  21. Aicee says:

    Are you Zhurourong… from SWG? Pardon my memories…. it is really going down the drain…

  22. Dave says:

    I certainly hope he’s not sleeping with her either. Not because of looks, I’m not judgemental like that, but because she looks like she’s about 14 years old, and he looks like he’s about 30. And on a side note, how the hell does a 14 year old girl get to sit in on an exclusive Fable2 demonstration with Peter Molyneux himself? I swear all you need is to be a girl+a gamer+cute=get in to events like this.

  23. ohgod says:

    Yup, the guy in the pic does looked like he’s over 30 and fat and bald and ..uh… I think he’s not the goon sheylara is mentioning.. unless that guy is rich.. then that’s another story.l

  24. RN1209 says:

    Man, what is up with you people and GFather’s looks? I’m surprised there’s such recent posts here. In fact, I shouldn’t have posted coz now someone somewhere is gonna get a notification of my follow-up comment and come back and…
    @Dave: Sure, Sheylara looks really young and all, but 14? Come on, even Microsoft ain’t that crazy…:)

  25. Bruno says:

    Hi Sheylara ! There are not many girls who likes videogames in Italy, I LOVE JAPAN !!! Ciao!

  26. RN1209 says:

    @Bruno: Err, bro… you do realise that Sheylara is Singaporean, and that Singapore isn’t in Japan?:)

  27. whup says:

    @ohgod: That IS the goon she’s mentioning la.. See this post for more confirmation: http://sheylara.com/2007/02/22/goonfathers-goonmobile/

    Can also see from that pic that he’s rich (RX8 man), so I guess there’s the “another story”. ;)

  28. Ralph says:

    sup with ur comment?Bet he’s cooler then you.

  29. aaron says:

    goonfather:hey hey i want to sleep wif u…..lols just joking. i am underage and a guy(NOT GAY)….LOLS

  30. lol says:

    lol goonfather u really look like a goon lol

  31. lol says:

    sheylera u deserve someone better man

  32. sEreNe says:

    looks doesnt matter. from how sheylara blogs abt him, he seems like a guy that will rlly make a girl feel happy just by being with him. :)

  33. Sheylara says:

    Thank you. :)

  34. Bill says:

    Kindly get your better half to slim down and what’s his profession?

  35. Melissa says:

    Its sad to see people are getting rudder (if there is such a word) by the day…no…by the seconds…Why can’t people have nice things to say about others?

  36. Piers says:

    Guys guys guys, get over it. He’s obviously got what it takes to win the heart of Sheylara, which in my opinion makes him a total legend. Plus, I think he looks like someone one out of an old Kung Fu movie. And that can only be a good thing.

  37. Jie says:

    Whats your problem @ Bill.

    Not happy that he is better than you ah, jealous sia aw :(

  38. Heather says:

    maybe cos appearance-wise, sheylara also cmi -.- all photoshop!!! wouldnt rule out that possibility…
    hais…

    but, love is blind :)

  39. Lynn says:

    Apparently Sheylara and The Goonfather are already married with children so of course they are sleeping together like DOH!

    Anyway… Love is not about who is worthy of who. In a relationship, the most important thing is that both parties genuinely love each other and that, I truly believe that is enough :)

    When you love someone, you don’t need a reason why. You just love him/her. You will disregard all the minor details that in fact mean nothing at all.

    Those people with negative comments, bet you all have never fallen in love before right?

    And why do you care so much about their blissful family life anyway?? They are happy and that’s all that matters.
