I found it interesting that the Finn-FP relationship has so many far out, fantasy-world problems (the fact that she is made of fire and "evil" by nature) and yet it ended (at least for now) for the same ordinary reason that so many real world relationships fall apart: because one party wasn't honest with the other.

I thought at first this was going to be some horseshit where you made your Bud Light taste like raspberries or whatever, but this is even worse.  This is like putting some kind of fiberglass body kit on your old GEO and trying to convince yourself its a Porsche.

Yeah, Brainy Smurf usually gets tossed out of the village for disagreeing with everyone.

Yeah I had the CD compilation that came out around 2001 and loved it, but I hadn't listened to them in years.

Is that real?  That sounds like something out of Glenn Beck's paranoid fantasies.

Mexico has had a couple of civil wars.  A few dictatorships too, although it would be a stretch to call any of them "fascist"

You're being unfair to Grayhm.  He's also directed this movie http://www.imdb.com/title/t…, which, based on the title alone, I'm about 40% sure isn't a Mitchell and Webb parody of an art film.

Most likely he would have been a gentleman rapist.

Most of this is from just before my time.  I remember Punky Brewster and vaguely remember Dungeons and Dragons.  But really when I think of Saturday morning cartoons I think of the Smurfs, Gummi Bears, Spidey and Friends, Muppet Babies, and the Alftales.

You know what makes 8 year old me jealous?  The fact that there are now cheap radio controlled helicopters.  I mean, I have one, and it's fun.  But if this were 1985 I would literally not be able to think about anything but this little fucking helicopter.

My theory:  there was an offscreen court order that he could not be mentioned under penalty of torture.

The Tick was on Saturday mornings in the 90s.  I was already a teenager at the time but I watched it.  Especially because it was right around the time I started smoking weed.

A comedy writer/actor/musician is a really low bar to set for "Renaissance man".  In the Vaudeville era an entertainer would have been expected to do all of that and dance, too.

I went to a high school in Plano, TX, which was the ultimate US suburb, 90s version, and there were black people there.  The only all-white places I have seen were small towns that were hundreds of miles from major cities.

Western animation in the 80s was really so terrible. The Don Bluth films are decent, and in the late 80s you start to get a revival starting around the time of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but almost all of the cartoons that were on tv are basically unwatchable today.  Even being a kid at the time I recognized how huge a…

Didn't they already do that this last season with "Greendale Babies"?

Yeah I mean, are we talking $300 million retail or wholesale?  I wonder if those 200 count all of the locals who scout locations, informants who work for the stores, etc.  If so, then they are probably getting a few thousand a piece and the guys actually doing the robberies are making moderate bank.

@pafko:disqus aren't we all, friend.  Aren't we all.

That's really weird and actually true, apparently.  I didn't even know Della Reese was a singer.  I just thought she was on that Angel show.

When I was a kid I was sure they were the "pimps".  I didn't know what a pimp was at the time.
