All valid and well-described points.  I was never sure what Brock saw under that South American sheet.  He was clearly upset but there could be many reasons for that. 
Is this a modified case of "you had to be there" only you can't have been there if you don't have a dick?

Really?  I dunno, Dik… I find him way more compelling than Hank recently.  Last season, Hank had his big "I wish *I* was Brock's son" thing while still healthily making friends with Dermott (not to mention boning Dermott's sister/mom).  I feel like this is Dean's season to do a little growing and i'm glad it's not the…

I understand that Brock might have been purposely untruthful for various reasons but I still think his version of events is worth considering

"Tucking" might be a more artisanal skillset than you might have expected.

I don't think there's any reason to think that Mr. Gathers had anything done with his "pud", as you so romantically term it

I agree that Ren and Stimpy is a spiritual predecessor of Venture Bros. and I would never argue that either was meant for children, but I'd like to take this opportunity to point out that Ren n Stimpy was never in any way targeted toward or appropriate for the time slot in which it was aired  it's what I'd call a…

I don't think so, @natural blues.  Why on earth would she sacrifice anything in order to stay close to Dean? 

No.

I know a small child who was born on President's Day and every February, when I watch that brilliant George Washington video, I lament the fact that he is not yet old enough to enjoy it with me.

I have a mother who hates cartoons.  I could only watch them if she wasn't going to be in the same room; she said the high-pitched voices bothered her too much.  I could watch Looney Tunes and nothing else if she was going to be near the TV.

I stand by this show more than any other show that has ever existed.  It's all delightful genius from the pilot till today.  If the pilot didn't pique your interest at all, it's probably not for you.

It's a very sad story.  Hank, god bless him, is a very specific  kind of idiot.  I think he will make a terrific superhero when and if he inherits, should there be anything left to inherit.  He has just the right combination of idiocy and experience to pull it off with aplomb.

I think Hank would be very excited to find out that he is a clone.

I quite liked Truckules

I still like Dean.  He's not dealing with his new knowledge as badly as he could.  The way he saw those precogs as standins for himself and Hank was pretty brutal but unfortunately accurate.

It does make sense for someone pretending to be him to also pretend that concern.

The unbelievably long commercials for their intolerably bad-acted and retina-searingly oversaturated live-action tween comedies?  Haven't noticed 'em.

Ah, yes; Ye Olde Laser Tag Shoppe.
