I suppose the writers actually giving her a personality instead of making her the character everyone hates for no reason is out of the question. :rolleyes: Seriously, the Satellite Chick/Generic Girl cliche (in which a girl is only present to be fawned over if she's "pretty" and mocked and...
I know I should feel bad, but all I can think of is how many seasons ago the whole show should have died. Also, it aggravates me how weird people are getting about it; there's even a change.org petition to bring him back. Talk about first world problems...:rolleyes:
I actually agree with all of that. One of the good things about kids' shows like Sesame Street and Arthur is that they don't make it seem like it's wrong or unnatural to have negative feelings (anger, sadness, envy, etc.). They teach that it's fine to have them, as long as you deal with them in...
I'm grateful for the Internet, which helps me meet compassionate, geeky, weird, and wonderful people just like me! Love my cyber friends (including you guys)!
I added him to that thread just a few moments ago. I've come to the conclusion that fawning over an evil character isn't bad in itself. I think the fanbases that fall all over themselves to try to excuse the less-than-savory behaviors of such characters are a bit much, though.
Be flattered, my friends. You're the only people I feel comfortable relating this to. I give you my animated hottie:
For those who don't know, this is the villain from Atlantis, the Lost Empire.
I am well aware that his character is a horrible, horrible person, and that he would be old...
Is it sick and wrong to find a cartoon character really attractive when you're a 26-year-old woman? And for that matter, what if that character is a horrible, horrible person?

When I was walking home today (I visited the American Indian museum downtown; it was rad, BTW), I saw that someone in my neighborhood had a buttload of Christmas decorations already decked out in the front of their house. I was like "really?":confused:
When I realize that my baby brother, the one I held in the hospital the day we brought him home....is going to be 12 years old tomorrow.
Also, when I realize that my age (26) means I'm closer to 30 than I am to 20.
...Where does the time go?
We've had Christmas stuff in the store I work in since before Halloween (like, first-day-of-October-before Halloween). I understand Christmas fabric, since people make pot holders, oven mitts, table runners, tree skirts, and the like, but things like ornaments and wrapping paper seems like a bit...
I actually find laugh tracks annoying; there have been a ton of comedy shows that are fine without them. Since a lot of shows don't have live studio audiences anymore, and tend to use laugh tracks instead, it just comes off as a forced attempt to hook in the viewers. If a show really is funny...
....nope. Changes nothing. Maybe the sequel will be an improvement, which isn't an unheard-of phenomenon (for instance, I agree with Doug "Nostalgia Critic" Walker that Shrek 2 is better than the first).
