There was that POWERPUFF GIRLS episode where Professor Utonium built that machine that was meant to turn apples into oranges and vice versa, but he calibrated the machine too high that it caused every citizen in Townsville to randomly switch bodies.

Now, when the Powerpuff Girls woke up in their own room, they discovered they were in the bodies of Professor, Mayor, and Miss Bellum, so while their bodies were switched, their locations were not . . . but then, apparently it was the reverse for everyone else in Townsville: when they close in on Fuzzy Lumpkins, they find his body, but he had apparently been switched with an Englishman who was about to have tea; likewise, when they bust in on the Gangreen Gang, again, its their bodies, but they apparently switched with teen girls gushing over the boys in their magazines. Finally, it takes them discovering that Mojo Jojo in his mountaintop lair switched bodies for them to figure out that the little old lady who just happened to be at every crime scene was actually Mojo Jojo.

I guess it's all for plot convenience, but it does seem strange that after what happens with everyone else in Townsville that it wouldn't be Professor, Mayor, and Miss Bellum waking up in the Powerpuffs' room inside their bodies, while Bubbles and Blossom find themselves in the Mayor's office in Mayor and Miss Bellum's bodies, and Buttercup waking up in Professor's lab in his body.

On another note, there's a couple of fun blink-and-you'll-miss-it moments where the Mayor is suddenly in Craig McCracken's body, and Miss Bellum's in Dexter's body.

That's one of my all-time favorite episodes! "Criss-Cross Crisis." Topped only by "Meet the Beat-Alls."

On most of Judd Hirsch's sitcoms, he played a character who had been estranged from his daughter for years before the shows began (including cases where that's not a real big plot point).

The first episode of Taxi has Alex call up his daughter in Florida and meet her for the first time since her childhood (and she did show up one more time on the series).

The first episode of George and Leo establishes that Leo was out of his daughter's life since she was a child, and he shows up announced at her wedding. I think this is the only one where their relationship improves on a regular basis.

And today I was looking at the TV Tropes page for Superior Donuts and it says that his character, again, reunited with his long lost daughter at some point on the show (I do not remember that episode).

It also seems like Judd Hirsch always played divorced characters on his shows, though I am not sure if he was divorced or widowed on Superior Donuts (I'm also not sure if he was divorced or widowed on The Goldberg's), and besides those examples, the premise of Dear John is that he's recently divorced. He's also divorced in his few appearances on The Big Bang Theory.

Bill Cosby - I MEAN Dr. Lincoln literally had no face in the only shot they show his mouth, with the lack of details and the laziness and the blankness and - oh, you know what I’m a talkin’ about!

Okay, is it just me, or does this particular character in today's Google Doodle look like they could be the secret love child of Genie from ALADDIN and Cave Guy from FREAKAZOID?

Honestly this woman alone represents EVERYTHING wrong with the vegan community.


Like….. wow. Her videos really show the kind of person she really is. And of course the vegan community continually praises her for her forcing down your throats vegan videos.

I mean, I'm not gonna lie, I even responded to one of Tara Strong's tweets about veganism saying that, yes, indeed, a lot of vegans actually are like this. It's like I've always said: you've got vegetarians, and then you've got vegans, who are like the Southern Baptists of vegetarians.

But again, I always find it personally amusing that so many vegans act like they're special people because they're not harming animals or any living creatures for that matter . . . but, have they ever even stopped to consider that plants are living creatures? And just think of all the plants and other flora that are being uprooted from nature and massaquered to they can eat their special non-diary and non-meat food stuffs and act like they're better than the rest of us.

To be honest I ignore a lot of her vegan tweets, unless it shows a serious issue like really bad animal abuse because I have seen some heartbreaking videos she has shared. Even as someone who loves her a lot as a person and actress and is fortunate to have had the chance to meet and chat with her twice in my life, she’s made it clear she’s very uneducated with the vegan life and just blindly worships every vegan source, including PETA. I can tell her heart is in the right place with the lifestyle, but the fact that she supports PETA alone says a lot right there. Same deal with Greg Cipes as well. But in the end, no individual person is perfect.

It’s all just a bunch of uneducated clout-chasing bull****. Even if I were vegan myself (which I would like to try the diet one day) you know **** well I’d be making fun of the vegan community at any given opportunity.
