    Peppermint... STINKIN...Park. Terrible Kid's show

    You know what I did? I wanted to send my sister a REALLY scary Halloween card last year, so I drew "Ernie" (from the M song) with the real Ernie cowering from him in terror! (Just like the rest of us do when watching Peppermint Park!) :crazy:

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    Thanks. Things had been going downhill for a while anyway. Better to just end it before things got worse. I've known married couples who've screamed and fought for years (or just became bored with each other, but just lived under the same roof). What's the point in having a marriage like...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    Guess I'm back to square one again with Valentine's Day... Without going into a lot on here, I filed for divorce during the summer. All that's left now is boxes of my soon-to-be-ex's stuff lumped in the second bedroom, waiting for some movers to come pick it up. I'll have a couple of meetings...

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    Ha! If you want to, I suppose. :excited: Anything that rings will work. Members have used things that jingle: keys, doorbells and even spare change.

    TV Alert: Oscar the Grouch on The Ellen Show Tuesday January 10, 2017

    To make it as simple as I can, Caroll's perfectly OK with Eric playing Oscar sometimes...and eventually passing the torch to Eric just as he was fine with Matt Vogel being Big Bird. I saw Caroll and Debi at a convention last year and Caroll remarked how great a job Eric was doing with Oscar on...

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    I did! I had keys and a bell from the dollar store to ring this year.

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    You can post a video of yourself ringing your bell if you want to. Didn't that exist in the olden days of MC? It's great that the video is still up! For newbies here, the bell ringing will take place at 9:00PM Central time, which is exactly one hour and 48 minutes from....now! :excited:

    Ecto Cooler (and other stuff) for sale for Halloween

    I have just a little bit of Ecto Cooler left, most of which expires sometime next month. The rest is nearly all gone. If anyone's still interested, this will probably be the last chance anyone has to buy some from me. Right before Christmas, I'll have to either discard it or drink it myself...

    What made you roll your eyes today thread?

    I used to work in this "library": I am so grateful that I am working in a place deserving of that descriptor now. Good thing they have a cat now. It can eat all the mice and bugs that place has attracted over the past decade. No student has ever followed the "No Food Rule". They eat there...

    It's been Fun, but I REALLY must be going....

    Well DrTooth, I certainly wish you all the best of luck. I really enjoyed reading your posts on MC over the years. Your unique humor and sharp commentary will be missed 'round these parts. To me, it was often like reading material by George Carlin (please take that as a compliment, as he's...

    Ecto Cooler (and other stuff) for sale for Halloween

    Yeah, I'm selling it, but we can discuss it, too, if you like. We never saw the Twinkies here, (I'm in Illinois) just the Ecto Cooler and marshmallows and even then it was only in some stores at random. We have a grocery store chain here called Schnucks...pronounced like that dwarf's name in...

    Ecto Cooler (and other stuff) for sale for Halloween

    Hi everyone, Is anybody still looking for Ecto Cooler and Ghostbusters marshmallows? My wife and I got some a while back and bought too much of it by mistake, thinking "this will be the best stuff ever!". It was...for a while. After drinking so many juice boxes though, simply put, we're...

    Your Schooltime Experiences

    I know this thread is about ninjas, so I don't want to get off topic too much. Maybe another thread can be started about school and our experiences. I agree with Dr Tooth about how kids feel towards school and I had pretty much the same attitude, experience and even some teachers like Bart's...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    WGN's "The Bozo Show" from 1984-2001 (with Joey D'Auria as Bozo) has to top the list for me as the most annoying show ever. This version of The Bozo Show had both live action and animation. I tried to find a full episode online from the late 1980's-early 1990's...but apparently, those shows...

    When you need to rant...

    Hey! I like that song! "For youuu... I'd wash my hair with stinky glue, I'd fry my legs and eat them too, I'd put a spider in my shoe -- for yoouuuu!"

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4617 - Camping Show

    The Two-Headed Monster's mom is actually (dun dun dunnnnnnn) Telly in drag! And we have yet another version of Grover's mother. Will we ever see Grover's mysterious father, though?

    Believe it or not, Snoopy was a "world famous grocery clerk" for a few strips. No ice cream truck, though (as far as I remember):
