LOL
Sometime within the last year or so I responded to a telephone survey about television advertising using almost the exact phrase, "I'd out of may way NOT to buy such a product."
I'm 49 years old.
I'm not 49, but I am a '49er. My wife likes LOST and other stuff, like Law & Order and so on. I'm mostly a History Channel and ESPN buff, but I do watch the Cartoon Network, which is very youth oriented - surprise, surprise.
As the years go by, it's hard to keep up. Back in the 80's I loved to be hip, but now that's all nostalgia. I liked Cowboy Bebop when it came on CN's "Adult Swim", and I even learned to appreciate Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but now they are putting out some really repellent stuff. Last year or so I saw some wacky SciFi cartoon that heavily pushed a gay agenda. Heterosexuality was portrayed as a quirky aberration - I forget the details, but it was totally political.
Then just last week I saw some show that featured a giant robotic Jesus controlled by Pat Robertson, who looked a lot like Dubya. The heroes were a bunch of bizarre misfits, including a pair of "Siamese twins" and an "adult" baby. The robotic Jesus had some kind of showdown with the Jewish Messiah ( sort of a dimwit wrinkly giant,) with a rabbi making commentary. I forget the exact outcome, but the robot Jesus more or less prevailed, I guess, as the heroes were captured and were then regaled, while under restraint, with all the horrible things that were going to happen to them, in the form of Bible quotes read by Robertson's minions. This was a very long litany. The heroes had a plan for escape which involved fishing a piece of clam meat from one of their ears, but it fell on the floor. Then in crawls some kind of worm thing, to the rescue I suppose, and the baby says, "Oh look, my foreskin." ... Well, that was it for me! O Brave New World!
*shakes head* Garbage.
