(no subject)
I was sick the last few days (was, past tense. If I have to call you at 8pm on game night, vulpes, and you start in with "But you said you were sick," I will hunt you down, I will find you, and then I will kill you make one of my sister's children puke all over you, and Nurgle only knows what horrible plagues they could have this week.)
So I ended up watching cartoons all day, just like I did last time I was sick... commercials are pretty weird. I'm skeptical of Cocoa/Fruity/Marshmallow Pebbles "rockin' out" my brain, and don't understand why not eating enough of them would turn you into an elephant.
Also, how many inventors are watching cartoons at 1 in the afternoon? It's every other goddamn commercial on there. wtf?
Specifically about some of the crap I watched though:
My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic: I don't understand what it is about this cartoon nerds love so much. I don't think it's bad, just that I can't see what about it would send you running to the internet to proclaim how much you love it. Particularly when you're not an eight year old girl.
Also also though, I couldn't find Derpy hooves, so I'm a little down on it for that.
Transformers Prime: 3 fucking kids? And a FBI guy? For fuck's sake, NOBODY WANTS HUMANS IN TRANSFORMER CARTOONS!!!! WHY DO THEY KEEP PUTTING THEM IN THERE?
Jem and the Holograms: .... who would ever put this back on TV? I mean, yeah, there's stuff equally old or older on the same cable channel, Fraggle Rock, but Fraggle Rock Rock is damn near timeless. Jem is so 80s it hurts. Kids today don't even know what a keytar is! I'm surprised they didn't add little blurbs to the commercials, like "Hey kids! This is what your parents were like! Laugh at them!"
The Looney Tunes Show: So, a sitcom about Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck living together in the suburbs. It boggles the mind that that's what anybody would want to do with these characters, but then on the other hand, every other Looney Tunes thing made in the last 30 years has been complete shit, so I guess it deserves some credit for being watchable, i.e., better than Space Jam. Still, I can't shake the feeling when watching it that if it were live action real people, with a laugh track and a few gay jokes thrown in that The Looney Tunes Show could easily hit 12 seasons on CBS.
