Here are some more old photoshops I just had sitting on my 25TB of hard drive space, thought I’d share them. The ‘Real Housewives’ and ‘Ren and Stimpy’ ones were prompted with imagining a TV show or movie in another area, the same as the ‘Blackish’ one only a few people got last time. This is ART! I shouldn’t have to explain it!
That ET Atari one is classic.
The Mickey Mouse one is prescient.
Da fuck is everyone? Zooming? Baitin’?
Por que no dos?
Deberíamos hacer zoom. Esta semana apesta.
Google translator uh?
I was washing my hair.
My old friend R. J. The Spaniard is in the house.
Welcome!
Fuck off Tulpa!
I understand (I think) three of these, that might be a record.
Is this understandable?

Yeah, I’m above 50% but barely. I tend to ignore popular media and as a result I have no idea who the hell any of these people are.

I found a drink in a Korean shopping mart purporting to have snake venom in it. I drank it. I would not drink that.
Wait til you see the actual commercials! If only Trump had drank it first, he could have gotten away with the groping.

That is awesome.
I could only make 50%. It may be worse being able to understand it.
It’s not only awful visually.
RE: Fred Flintstone
He shilled for Winstons, not Luckies.
There was even a logo showing during the closing credits.
True. I watch that show with my daughter now on Sundays. It beats the Jetsons hands down.
Do they still show the cigarette logo during the closing credits?
Jetsons wasn’t too bad, typical H-B stuff.
My dad forbade us from watching anything from H-B, DePatie-Freleng, or Rankin/Bass. “That will rot your brain. Here, watch this instead,” and we’d get Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Bob Clampett, Jay Ward…
My dad was the best.
I like both sides. We are very lucky that MeTV has Bill the cartoon curator who shows a good range of excellent cartoons. After that is the Flintstones/Jetsons. /as far as Rankin Bass, my daughter still loves the horrible Hobbit cartoon. Your dad was sparing himself as well as you.
It’s kind of sad that even kids cartoons have peaked and gone down hill since the 90’s.
The pathetic nitwits in Hollywood can’t even make adequate content for children. They’re too shallow to appeal to fucking children.
The shit is horrible. I have tried a couple of times to watch “new” cartoons. They are vile, kids don’t even like it. I can only assume it is subsidized, like the news. Otherwise that kind of visual diarrhea would never make it to production.
Despite his best efforts to keep him on a steady diet of vintage Loony Tunes, my cousin’s kid was obsessed with Johnny Test somewhere around 2011 or so. I caught some of it during visits. It was shit, but more or less the same shit that was being churned out when I was outgrowing cartoons (Johnny Bravo, Dexter’s Laboratory, Power Puff Girls, that whole art style). But then my childhood favorites were David the Gnome, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Rocco’s Modern Life. There’s no accounting for taste.
I get the HB and Rankin/Bass hate, But DePatie and Freleng had their moments.
Pink Panther cartoons at times were surrealist works of art.
Where I lived when growing up was very sparse for even the limited TV of the time. We could get the local NBC affiliate watchable and the PBS station a bit less so. The higher frequencies (channel 7, ABC, and channel 13, CBS) were unwatchable. So, I took what I could get. I loved ol’ Huckelberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw, and the like simply because it was all we could get.
I realize now that it was crap animation but it was all that we had at the time.
TCM was running WB stuff all last month and would often show Looney Tunes. It was great.
Hush, you. Rankin/Bass gave me Heat Miser and Burgermeister Meisterburger.
🎶 I’m Mr. Heat Miser, I’m Mr. Sun… 🎶
I am going to make an effort to look for it. I will let you know. MeTV is not know for censoring old cartoons so I bet it is there.
And I like the Jetsons too, Just the Flintstones really hits a nerve with me now. It didn’t when I was younger.
Why?
I grew up doing car repair and construction. The Flintstones resonates now. When I was younger I didn’t recognize that experience.
BANG! BANG!
Just kidding, Abe.
That butler in the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” pictures looks real happy.
I liked the Aunt Jemima in the back. I’m trying to remember what liquor ad had the black butler, maybe Calvert? Anyway, Esquire mag had the ladies in the ’50s formal attire. The rest of the stuff I had no idea about any of the satire. No TV in the ’50s or ’60s at the Fourscores but then I was gone anyway.
Still fun, though, CPRM
We aren’t Soros funded here. You refugees end up in the first semi-not-totalitarian state that you cross into.
Fairly drunk here. Which comment does this attach to? You pulled a Brooks.
It’s from the previous thread on the subject of starting a support group for Glibs in blue states. The quote was Gustave’s response.
Thanks. I stated I am also in on that. Business plans to show escape strategies.
How much of that 25 TB’s is porn?
An afternoon’s worth for an 18 year old.
How many gallons (or liters)?
I used to hit duck opener in La Crescent, MN, right across the river from LaCrosse, WI. To say that the Sconnies love their bars is a huge understatement. We would finish hunting, head across the bridge and try to keep up.
I may be still hung over.
OT: Thursday’s movie post is not scheduled. Slightly worried since I am using a different computer. I did submit it. Not sure if it shows that.
I’m not sure how long ago you submitted it or how long it takes to update but I’m not seeing it as ‘pending’ you may want to resubmit it.
I did. damn. I will have to get to another computer. It may be this one is fucked up.
I resubmitted it via the big Linux box. The title is “Witching and Bitching.”
It’s there. I see it. It is on page two of pending. Animal has a lot of pending.
Ahh, The ‘ol page two trick, I should have caught that.

I was just in San Diego. Where are you in CA? Maybe I can see you next time. Unless it is San Fran. I don’t want to go back there, ever.
You know, there are some of us that are San Diego adjacent.
Sigh.
Such smooth, smooth brains, but if you dropped a wire into the part that lights up when they hear, ‘vibe,’ they’d be happy as well-fed Koalas…
I doubt if it’s just SF. Big cities have become an attractant to those who have fallen by the wayside.
Boo-fuckin’-hoo for them. You get what you vote for now live with it.
Sup Yusef?!
Build a wall around it with a minefield beyond. Only Snake Plissken could manage that place.
Mrs OBE was sad…no one on the zooms.
I zoomed myself for about 20 minutes but I just couldn’t keep it up.
I just stuck my head in and was all alone
If all the people checking in complaining that no one is in there stayed in there instead of acting like children, you would have an active Zoom going.
Or, you could just shit post with me and RJ here.
Me too. Nobody there. So one the count o three, we all jump in? One… Two… Three!

Wait, that’s what we’re doing, right?

My vote was for the Batman one! Anyone see Kamala’s latest presser? She is obviously shit-faced drunk! Hold on to your collective ankles America, TBTB give no shits.
Meh, Semi-Bright Border Collie isn’t going to win, I’ll take Drunk Kamala, is she promises to stay drunk and not actually do anyhting.
This was thrown into my face recently as evidence that Trump was just as corrupt as everyone else. But I find it more interesting how quickly progs see conflicts of interest when the person doesn’t have a D after their name. Hillary’s foundation? Fine. Biden? No evidence he was helping family members secure those deals besides all that evidence they choose to ignore.
But with the Trumps, it’s an obvious ethics violation for Kushner to get a deal with the Saudis after leaving office. And they’re right, it is. Though, at least he has real plausible deniability because he wasn’t some career politician who could only offer influence in return for the deal. The Trumps did far less influence trading than the career politicians who vilify them.
The truth is whatever advances their cause, no matter how paradoxical, contradictory or capricious.
The truth is a silly notion to be discarded as needed.
Kushner can actually say he did something positive for the US with his relationship with the Saudis. What good came of Hillary taking money from the Saudis, or Russians, or Chinese? And let’s not even get started on Biden’s connections to Ukraine. They sell America’s interests out to gain personal wealth.
But the left is blind, deaf, and dumb when it comes to how money influences their guys.
And then there is this howler:
Yea, there was real outrage building in congress over that one.
Right, it’s just the Saudis causing problems. Ignore that the Iranian backed Houthis did a Taliban on the parts of the country they gained control of.
They’re well aware their own pols are corrupt as the day is long and that the money influences their decision making, they just don’t care as long as it allows their causes to be furthered and they care even less about hypocrisy.
The Trumps did far less influence trading than the career politicians who vilify them.
This x 1000.
FWIW, I understand that the correct pronunciation of “grok” is like “croak” with the last half dragged down to almost a growl.
/useless information
Disney+ has lost another 4 million subscribers in the first quarter of the year on top of the 2+ million lost in the last quarter of 2022.
What I think they need is more LGBTQ+ representation. Maybe another race swapped remake of a beloved animated movie. A couple more bait-and-switches where movies/series with male leads give way to female characters. Just a little bit more, and middle America will be fighting their way back to the platform.
Disney has killed Marvel and Star Wars. Both were a license to print money. Even when they manage to make something that isn’t awful, people have just tuned out. And it wasn’t comic book fatigue. Sony’s No Way Home was a huge hit. People after that went out to go see Doctor Strange only to be horribly disappointed. People still gave Thor 4 a shot only to be even more disappointed. And now people have just quit.
Disney stock is down 44% – the worst since 1974. It’s been stated already, but heads would and should have been rolling at the top. These schmucks? They brought back the CEO who started them down the miserable path they were on and the guy has done nothing but continued course and picked an even larger fight with the state of Florida.
Good. Let it die.
Maybe they’ll eventually piss off fedgov enough that we could return to sane limits for intellectual property protection.
My Disney+ subscription is bundled with a bunch of other things, but I’ll be damned if I can remember what now. That said, I’ve watched precious little on Disney+. I’ll have to ask XX if she watches anything on it. I was going to go back and watch movies of my childhood (Witch Mountain movies), but I think I should just leave those in my childhood. My nostalgia trips always end badly.
👍
But yeah, I’m tiring of nostalgia trips. Each one is less fulfilling than the last one.
Are those on Disney+?
Watch Andor before you cancel.
Hunter Biden’s really worth $230,000,000?

No wonder he doesn’t mind paying for tail.
He (well, his lawyer) was crying poverty at the child support hearing, laughably enough.

About to go to bed.
Put i have had a thought percolating in mind.
Anybody kinda surprised at how low the awarded money is on the trump defamation trial?
Alex Jones, 1 billion dollars for comments on Sandy Hook.
Trump 5 million for “rape” and or defamation.
Seems unequal no matter if you like or hate trump.
Alex Jones was to scare all the other commentators who go against the narrative. That’s a potentially much bigger problem than something Trump may or may not have done 40 years ago.
Mo’s right, but also I think some of it is that people have no notion how big a number a billion is. Same with the budget. They think of a billion as a little bit bigger than a million – so if you want to express How Much you want something you have to spend a billion dollars.
*puts finger to corner of mouth*
How it is done.
https://www.8newsnow.com/news/local-news/1-person-shot-near-harry-reid-international-airport/
Now let’s see if rage machine spins up on this one…
Kudos to the driver.
It’ll get buried because the cops saw the guy had a gun and let him get away narrative isn’t convenient. Or just whitewashed away.
In a textbook case of girl removing consent after the fact:
#believeallwomen
That reminds me of a case I had about 20 years ago. My client was accused of raping his neighbor who lived in the same apartment complex. His version of events: We knew each other and got to talking outside, she invited me in to have a beer, we drank a beer and talked, then I left. Her version: We talking outside when he suggested we go into my apartment to talk, we started talking, then he forced himself on me.
Cops arrest my client and collect the “victim’s” clothes. She was taken for medical attention. Doctors report notes some redness on her arms. No bruises, no cuts, no abrasions. Initial report indicates there are two semen spots on her shirt but no semen found anywhere else. Over two months later the final report comes back, semen on shirt was from two different men. Neither of them was my client.
He apparently did a get a blowjob from her…after she followed him back around the garage where he was taking a piss.
She also allegedly was screaming at guys that she wanted to be fucked and that if they didn’t fuck her they were some sort of expletive.
I don’t know how this got as far as it did given that there is video of whatever happened, and the guy wasn’t present in it. This shit should never have taken a full year.
He is blameless, but stupid.
There has to be a special sort of crazy with these girls who accuse a guy of rape after they fucked multiple other dudes. Maybe someone could map out the psychological profile of that one, but that would involve not believing all women.
Damn. Check out this Guatemalan libertarian running for the top job in Guatemala.
https://youtu.be/CUfRwYcaL-k
(note: a Stossel interview of a hot libertarian firebrand)
I may have to look abroad *hi-yo!* for my next wife. She is the complete package.
Would. And unlike the typical would I announce around here, wouldn’t be ashamed of it after.
Guatemala isn’t a real country.
Morning, Glibs.
I got to bed at a reasonable hour, woke up with my alarm, and now I’m all confused. Normally, I’m still asleep by the time I start commenting.

You trying to get people hyped for the new Flava of Love season?
It looks like the CNN Trump town hall went fairly well, no major stumbles, no unhinged tirades against rich and, in my opinion, borderline insane social butterflies who are quick on accusations but short on evidence…they’re going to have to ditch Biden or they’re going to be in trouble even with electoral shenanigans. The man’s a shuffling, shambling wreck.
https://www.wcbm.com/2023/05/09/watch-biden-just-totally-malfunctions-trying-to-pronounce-asian-womans-name-video/
CNN must be desperate to get SOMEONE to watch them.
The brand is too tarnished, they should just shut down.
Are they still #1 in the critical “I missed my flight and now I need to wait around the airport for a few hours” demographic?
A lot of airports have actually dropped them.
Probably best to avoid the news altogether in airports regardless of network, it primes people to be pissed off at the slightest thing.
The fitness center I just joined has a bank of TV screens facing the exercise equipment (mounted over a large picture window. I’d much rather look out the window at the expansive lawn outside, even if I’m not interested in whatever soccer game is going on out there.) Now I’m curious which, if any, of the cable news networks they make available to the folks on the treadmills and ellipticals.

We’ll, you know, yikes!
Mornin’ all
Good morning, Shirley, Stinky, Sean, and U!
Joined a new fitness center yesterday, so after work I get to go break up with the Y. And if that goes quickly enough, I may have time to go to the new place and work out a little bit! 😃
Yay! Good luck with the break up. Expect whinging, pleading, and ‘special deals.’ I’m sure you’ll point out how none of that changes the fact they let men, or pre-op transsexuals, in the ladies changing areas.
They don’t stop being men when they become post-op transsexuals.
