Annoyingly stupid… or stupidly annoying?

At the end of the Scooby Doo cartoons, the guy pretending to be the ghost always got arrested.  What was the charge?  We raised an entire generation of people who thought dressing as a ghost was illegal.  No wonder kids started dressing as hippies and tramps, instead.

In the show, Arthur, even if you accept the fact that all of the different animals can understand each other through some sort of ad hoc Esperanto, and that the school cafeteria could possibly anticipate the dietary needs of an ever-changing variety of creatures, you still cannot explain why Arthur Read, an aardvark, has no nose.

No matter who you are or how much patience you have dealing with Spongebob Squarepants, eventually, you’d give in to the urge to backhand the annoying little bastard…

If there is ever a live-action Space Ghost movie, it should be at least three and a half hours long so that the Space Ghost character can be completely fleshed out. Also, if they can’t get Anthony Hopkins for the title role then we’re all just wasting our time.

The current theory is that Cro-magnon man cannibalized some Neanderthals… something that the Flintstones, despite its lengthy run, failed to seriously address…

The Pink Panther cartoon was based on the opening credits of a live action movie. And, Einstein said that God does not play dice with the universe…

The Jetsons seemed a remarkably happy family despite living in a dystopian society high above a ruined Earth with only food pills and soylent green to sustain them. The biggest horror was the dog-walk treadmill that had no kill switch.

The Grape Ape was important to me growing up because, when it was over, I allowed myself to watch television again.

The amazing thing about the Underdog cartoon was not the energy pill… advances in medicine make such a pill not only possible but inevitable; no, the amazing thing was that, out of the entire population in the city, only two of them had dog-heads and no one ever pointed that out.

Was anyone else surprised when it turned out Secret Squirrel was selling nuclear bomb plans to the Estonians during the cold war? Rodents have no loyalty and can be bribed with acorns.

    1. Cat-Dog is basically the inspiration for The Human Centipede. Also…I’m pretty sure they have a test of wills about who is the butthole whenever it’s time to poop.

      1. Well, something had to inspire The Human Centipede. It will give future time travelers something to stop when they have to go back and prevent that movie…

  1. I loved Arthur – way more than my kids did. I kept trying to get them to watch it. Instead they turned to SpongeBob – which is even on the TV now as I write this. He’s not annoying yet – he gets slap worthy by Season 3 or 4

      1. Well you know what they say about big feet. Maybe Elmer Fudd didn’t have a speech impediment…he just had a strained jaw muscle from overwork.
