Fun Stuff > CHATTER
Get off my lawn!
CardinalFang:
I would like to point out at this time that I have over 200 posts.
That's right OVER 200 posts. That is .333 posts per day!
Therefore, since I have so many posts that there is no reason for me to pad my post count, it would be pointless of me to post unless I had something really relevant and totally not-disregardable to say.
I would now like to call upon Joe Hocking to start a thread called. "Kids today with their hair and their music!"

okay, this is completely off topic but i have to strongly disagree with you on this. i concur that most cartoons today suck, but there are some gems buried in the dirt. i am like a giant five year old so i watch the cartoons shown on skye on a fairly regular basis. this is how i was introduced to foster's house for imaginary friends and the grim adventures of billy and mandy. they both are really cute and imaginative (especially foster's house) and make me laugh really hard. i've also always liked the powerpuff girls, and i am sure that there are plenty of other examples out there that i just don't know about because i don't live in america/don't watch enough TV. basically, i think it's silly to get so nostalgic about old things that then all the cool new things are ignored!
(tl;dr : I FEEL REALLY STRONGLY ABOUT CARTOONS, OK)
on topic:
the main difference between my parents and i is probably that they are completely insane and i like to think that i am not.
Switchblade:
I'm partial to Ben 10 myself. Proper cheeseball "kid superhero saves the day" stuff.
Barmymoo:
mooface I have never seen either of those programmes, clearly there is a gap in my education.
I will go home tonight and watch them.
Perhaps I need to distinguish between terrifying (the Fimbles spring to mind, as does the previously-linked In the Night Garden) and terrible (certain Looney Tunes, almost every Disney series ever made, with particular reference to As the Bell Rings, and anything that involves hugely patronising women explaining how to spell blue).
Also truly amazing programmes like the entire channel devoted to pictures of fish and relaxing music to send your child to sleep. All the time. I love that channel.

(Mai, honey. I'm pretty sure that started in the 90s and is no longer being made)
