    When you need to rant...

    I've said this before, but notice how anytime today's kids see ANY cartoon that was in existence before the 2000s that features a male humanoid character and a talking dog (or any two random buddy characters), they're like, "Oh, so THAT'S where ADVENTURE TIME came from!" Wallace and Gromit...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Apparently ZippCast has been completely replaced and now redirects to some kind of really spacey-looking social media site.

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Well, even Weird Al has said before that at the times where his songs and videos are at their edgiest, he makes sure they're not to the point that they're inappropriate, because he's aware that kids make up a number of a fanbase as well; but I digress.

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Yeah, why is it always the "Libbruls" who gets blamed for everything?

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Well, even before his own scandal in the early 90s, Pee-wee was kind of regarded as actually being geared more towards adults than kids anyway.

    What's in a Name?

    That reminds me... in addition to the TONS of Chris's I've known over the years, I've also known at least two different Kris's as well.

    What Kind of Job Security Do Performers Have?

    I've really been curious about this, mainly because I've heard the stories about certain actors and performers (certainly not big-name, A-listers who can live off their wealth inbetween projects) who have to work menial jobs throughout the year because of the no work/no pay downtime/hiatus...

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Maybe something a teensy more approrpiate... y'know, for a kid's show?

    When you need to rant...

    My only problem with kids entertainment today is that there's really nothing out there that doesn't insult their intelligence. Admittedly, yes, cartoons back in the 90s were pretty great and unique, but they didn't talk down to kids... in fact, a LOT of those cartoons were FULL of parental...

    What's in a Name?

    I've known a Kathy, a Cathy, and a Katherine.

    What's in a Name?

    That reminds me, MC alone has like I think three different Kates/Katies.

    What's in a Name?

    I thought he said names with a K looked so much cooler as opposed to a C (Erik/Eric, Kathy/Cathy, Kasey/Casey, et al.)

    Wild Thornberries DVD (interesting development)

    http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Hey-Arnold-Season-5/18643 I've always wanted to see what the cover art looks like on paper... I'd still like to see it for boxed set art designs too.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    Upload Society apparently removed all ads from their site because of Malware concerns. That's not the weird part, what's weird is seeing that a website is actually honest enough to address such a concern... believe me, most of the viruses and stuff that have plagued me over the years came from...

    What's in a Name?

    *cough*Khloe*cough* *cough*Kourtney*cough* *cough*Kris especially*cough* *cough*Kendall*cough* As stupid and wedgie-inducing a name North West is going to be, I'm honestly surprised that Kim and Kanye didn't think of a K-name for their baby.

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    I think what Drtooth meant was that Roosevelt Franklin and Don Music displayed some behavior and characteristics that impressionable little kids shouldn't pick up on; cases in point - Roosevelt being the head of a classroom full of rowdy kids, and Don always banging his head on his piano...

    New All-Muppet Museum?

    Now I'm bummed out... I was all uber-excited about the possibility of a Muppet Museum... oh well. But on that subject, why can't we have an all-Muppet Museum? Or a Henson Museum in general? Walt Disney has a museum, Charles Schulz has a museum, why can't Jim have one?

    What's in a Name?

    Doesn't it seem like people named Frank tend to be arrogant jerks, or people Ed or Clyde tend to be idiots? :p But I think if I ever had a daughter (not that I want one) I'd name her Mary... either that or Gracie, I can't decide. And galagr, I've only known one Eric, and no, he ain't a jerk at...

    What's in a Name?

    Too late the edit, but I remember now a couple of Aaron's, a couple of Zach's, a couple of Thomas's, and a couple of Fred's.
