    When you need to rant...

    Okay, here's another one of my technology rants, and I KNOW I've gone through this specific rant before, but it bears needing to be repeated. So, it's only been, what, within the last year or so since Internet Explorer 10 was released? So yeah, I have IE10 and all, but you know what...

    TV Alert: "It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" on CW Monday December 2

    I doubt really it's copyright laws or anything, it could very well be a case of network rivalry.

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

    I'm also reminded of something else, that I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before, but it seems to me that Dr. Seuss has been victimized by Christmas as well, and it's probably the Grinch's fault. I think because HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS is so successful, and possibly the most popular and...

    The corny joke thread

    If a dog gives birth to her puppies in a public place, can she get arrested for littering?

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I was going through an old tape yesterday of stuff I had taped around Christmas 1998 or so, and it's dawned on me that there were a LOT of parallel similarities between Cartoon Network's treatment of THE POWERPUFF GIRLS and ED, EDD N EDDY. For example: - For both shows, CN, for some reason...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    You know you're old when you can actually remember that Kerry Washington used to be an obscure, unknown actress, as opposed to a big A-list celebrity... like, I remember back in the early 2000s, she was one of the leads in a godawful Spike Lee movie about an out-of-work executive who goes around...

    Yes, I actually had looked up the name of that composition not too long ago, but I forget again already. ><

    MIA: Hubert

    Confirmation that Hubert IS still alive and everything... apparently, he may slip out of his hermitage, if only to ban a troll that's crashed in over at the Elwood City Central forum that we can't get rid of (he's already been banned from the Arthur Wiki, frm what I understand).

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

    Hoo boy, I just found this: It's like a combination of funny, stupid, and just plain uncomfortable (like I feel sorry for those guys at McDonald's having to put up with Fake Marv).

    Episodes that Have Stuck with You

    I just remembered one, definitely Season 30, where the very existence of the letter 'V' was like football down here in TN. I even remember Big Bird and Elmo dancing around in 'V' jerseys, and singing the letter 'V' over and over again to the tune, "On Wisconsin".

    TV Alert: "It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" on CW Monday December 2

    It's a movie, not a special. And I still stand by my opinion that it's the worst Muppet movie ever made. It's like an emo teen crawled out of his depressive funk, decided to try his hand at writing Muppet fanfiction, then passed it off as a screenplay and it got made into a movie. Yeah, the...

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

    HOME ALONE 3 is seriously not as bad as people make it out to be; I think they just automatically hate it because it's not Mac Culkin, Joe Pesci, and Danny Stern... but the thing about #3, is that it actually brought an entire new cast of characters and situations rather than try to recast the...

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

    Makes me glad I got the Complete Collection set on DVD... though, after THAT was released, they went and made a FIFTH HOME ALONE movie, and I had to change the channel after three minutes (the shortest I've ever given a movie a chance), it was off to that bad a start, the acting was HORRIBLE!

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    Since we somehow seem to get onto the subject of Teletubbies on occasion around here, I found this and was rather interested by it - the people who were inside those Teletubby suits: Though, I heard the first guy who played Tinky Winky was fired BECAUSE of the whole ambiguously gay...

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

    Nobody seems to like those kinds of holiday specials anymore... and when I say, "Nobody", I mean that's apparently what the general public is saying. 'Cause, you know, networks always want to reel in the young crowd, because that's apparently the only audience that matters? And, like, Brad Pitt...

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    Well, before anybody does that, they would have to figure how long the entire special was without commercials to avoid any discrepencies.

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    Yeah, but they needed a female Muppet that emitted the same kind of star power as Elmo: Prairie is considered, "Too prissy" and, "Too Polly Perfect" to be a regular female character for little girls.
