I’m not offended by your comment, but I have to wonder what is going on in your head if you think me pointing out a few similarities between a cartoon character and a real person is a “blurring of reality and fantasy.”
One of my high school buddies used to call my Dad “Fred Flintstone. That doesn’t mean he thought my father was married to Wilma and worked at the Slate Quarry on the back of a brontosaurus.
It was’nt directed at you, but your post. You asked for thoughts.
A long time ago, I read a approx 6th grade level, school text book
that combined fantasy stories, American Indian mythology, and portraits of American Founding Fathers (focusing on ridiculous and questionable foibles.)
No child would be able to discern between fantasy and reality. The “Fathers” were not fables. Very dangerous and destructive.
Since then, I have watched this trend. “It must be true because it reminds me of a movie I saw.”
Please accept my apology. I have offended you, and that was not my intent.
LOLOL!
“That doesn’t mean he thought my father was married to Wilma and worked at the Slate Quarry on the back of a brontosaurus.”
But you gotta admit, the brontosaurus part would have been really cool!
Tagline bump!
