That’s on the parents buying their wee ones Call of Duty, though, not the industry itself.

I really wanted to try beer when I was underage. Guess what my parents didn’t buy for me?

Beer.

I really wanted to see R-rated movies when I was young. My friends who had “cool” parents got to see them; I didn’t unless I snuck…

Eh. Somehow, I lived through the great social panics over rap (and Tipper Gore’s eventual push to implement those lovely “Parental Warning: Explicit Content” stickers on albums), Mortal Kombat (seriously, Congressional hearings over that shit), and DOOM without ever developing the desire to harm anyone.

...and I was a…

Fox & Friends?

GAY SHOWS

Didn’t realize I was making a Dennis Miller reference, now I have to go shower for 3-4 hours to get the stink off me.

My vajayjay is painin’!

* kaff kaff kaff *

Kiss my ass!

IT’S MILEY!

Talk Soup and The Soup are different programs. Obviously the spiritual successor to Talk Soup, The Soup clearly deviated in some areas. And Talk Soup definitely wasn’t doing Kardashian gags.

Donkadooballs!

TS was amazing. I had no idea that many ridiculous reality shows existed until I watched a new episode of the Soup. I knew about crazy ass soap opera storylines. “The Soup” made me want to watch a telenovela. We laughed our asses off while watching that show.

Chicken Tetrazzini!

Tales...... From............ Home........

The Soup started in ‘04 though. That was a breath of fresh air back then.

Sooo meaty!

Joel was well ahead of the curve on this one. He made fun of them when all Kim had was a big ass and a sex tape

Chicks, man

I sometimes don’t know for whom I feel the worst: the genuine celebrities with talent that are forced to put up with the trash Kardashians being treated as if they weren’t low-class garbage, or the fans who waste millions of dollars on Kardashian-adjacent bullshit that make this narcissism nightmare possible.

That show, when it was still on Fri. night, was a great way to wrap the week.
