Dr. Nobody should have been scared by the vanity plates on that car with the cooler inside it —
LIV4EVA.

Crown for a King!

What?!? Genius!
"People go into the stratosphere,
Soldiers fighting with the Cong,
But with you by my side I can do anything…"

Until some animal gets violently killed and eaten.

Great minds, minya, great minds…

Marx Bros. were a hangover recovery mainstay early in my drinking career.

For a serious hangover, the only thing that helps me is alka-seltzer, V-8, cinnamon toast, and pro golf with the volume turned waaaay down. The slightly breathless commentary, the hushed pauses with the sounds of nature in the background, the satisfying *thwack* of a well-struck ball, and the polite clapping

If any of you are interested in the ways apocalyptic collapse changes character, buy and read Station Eleven. It is amazing on so many levels.

Your mother was way cooler than mine. If she knew I was watching it, my mother would have been wondering why her 20-something year old son was laughing (and crying and gagging and and squirming) to a kiddy show.

That "Hollywood Head" bit (I thought of it as a Generic TV Announcer) was right before Stimpy meets Muddy Mudskipper!

…and visit distant worlds with the Log of Tomorrow!

Green noxious cloud, foghorn sound effect, and flies (feasting on cat sh!t) who are nauseated by the smell of Ren's stinky gum holes. "Hey! We're trying to eat here! And YOU stand here airing out your stinky old gum holes! What are you trying to do - make us puke?!?"

That particular episode was Family Dynamics 101. For me.

Ren: Listen to me, I'm your friend. Don't you know cartoons will ruin your mind?

And the cheesy / brilliant sound effects! Every walk, stretch, reaction, mouth opening, etc. had a great sound effect to go with it.

Your avatar looks a lot like space cabbage. Is it stinky?

The Nerve Beaver! shudder

Ren: Hey, what is this thing? Get it off of me!
Stimpy: That's the Happy Helmet, Ren! Now you'll always be happy! And this is the remote control! And I use this dial to control how happy you are!
Ren: You sick little monkey! Why I ought to… BZZZZ
Stimpy: Hey, it works!
Ren: Heyyyeeeeee. What's happening. To. Me? NO! Got.

R&S turned grossness into comic gold on Ren's Toothache. It went to a place that was extremely uncomfortable for me (I remember physically squirming and muttering 'oh my god' the first time I saw it), but that was still hilariously funny. The foghorn sound fx when they cut to Ren's stinky gum hole still makes me

It's better than bad, it's good!
