    The breakfast cereal thread

    Whenever I think of Golden Grahams commercials, this one always comes to my mind: The father looks familiar somehow, but I can't place my finger on who it is.

    Sesame Street YouTube Channel uploading less content after HBO debut

    Wouldn't Sesame Workshop have separate channels for those other entities anyway?

    TV Tropes

    As I've said before: remember the old days of the internet when you knew a site was an official site because it didn't have ads on it? That's because they didn't need ads, as everything (domain, space, bandwidth, etc.) was paid for by whoever ran the site; fansites that were hosted through...

    TV Tropes

    Ho ho ho! I found another thread in their forum where one of the mods (and the exact same one who seems to like to suspend me) virtually admitted something I've been trying to call them out on: their inconsistency with rules! Seriously, the guy posted "such-and-such isn't allowed, but we really...

    TV Tropes

    I kind of feel like that's why ads keep evolving and getting more sophisticated, because more and more people are using adblockers. But yes, as I've said many times before, trojans hidden in ads are one of the main reasons why I have multiple adblockers on my browser (that and I don't want to...

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    This shows how much I was into COW AND CHICKEN when it was on, because as a kid, it was the first time I ever noticed off-model animation, I even posted about this on TV Tropes, but there was certain episodes where the animation and character designs differ noticably from other episodes - in...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    Boy, this guy really rips NORM OF THE NORTH apart, so much so in fact he outright refuses to refer to the movie and its title character by name, and refers to them by expletives instead:

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    Even Caroll Spinney made the mistake of when he and Oscar were on Dinah Shore's talk show with Richard Dawson and having Oscar rib him about being on HOGAN'S HEROES.

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    That happens to a lot of actors, and it depends on the individual themselves as to how they feel about being defined by that one role. In some cases, I know Werner Klemperer didn't mind people remembering him as Colonel Klink because that role gave him more exposure and recognition on a wider...

    The Worst CGI Kid Films In Recent Memory

    To be fair (to the kids, not the movie), a lot of kids are like that in a theater irregardless of the movie. Seriously, I think when I was younger I was roped into seeing a Pooh movie in theaters . . . I don't even remember which movie it was (maybe THE TIGGER MOVIE), nor what happened in it...

    Why does Shrek suddenly have a new cereal out now?

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Yes, there are some lazy people out there who still haven't taken their decor down, but I mean to say, people who have taken their Christmas down are already putting it back up all of the sudden.

    Separating the art from the artist: Is it always possible?

    Exactly. That's one of the reasons why TV sitcoms were so wacky and outlandish during the 60s: that was a rocky decade in American history in terms of things like war, civil rights, bucking the establishment, assassinations and such - sitcoms during that time were a form of refuge from all of...

    Glove Puppet Patterns?

    I actually picked up on that as I was sizing, tracing, cutting, and sewing the pattern, lol. I did, however, have to lengthen the "sleeve" to extend almost to my elbow, but other than that, so far so good: I tried one of the gloves on after I sewed it (without the thumb) and was amazed at how...

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

    Well I couldn't get my "potential" (if I can even say that) Valentine to talk to me tonight when trying to offer up moral support for a lot of misfortunes she's been having lately, and V-Day's only a week away now, so things aren't looking too well in my favor at the moment.

    Contact Cement

    I had a similar experience with hot glue when using a gasket rubber mouthplate: the glue wouldn't adhere at all, it just peeled right off - but that was before anyone told me that it's best to roughen the surface (or someone even suggested soaking it in rubbing alcohol) before gluing.

    Glove Puppet Patterns?

    Ah, okay. I've noticed fitted gloves have a similar pattern, but I just wanted to be sure before I start attaching thumbs.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Both: the strings of lights around windows and porches are on people's houses, while the tree-shaped displays are on the roofs of businesses and such.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Yeah, people are putting out Christmas lights and buildings are putting up those tree-shaped light displays again already.
