How have I now seen two seperate cartoons where a cow and chicken pilot the enola gay?

How is that a gag that ever comes up twice?

in both Teen Titans Go and Uncle Grandpa there's an episode where they're searching for a macguffin and go on a series of similar adventures and then the object turns out to be a McMuffin (tm)

I went on a road trip recently enough and when we passed billboards for The Thing I immediately thought of the Doug road trip episode. In fact, I think It in that episode was directly based on The Thing (which is apparently the corpse of a two-headed snake).

I'm not saying it was a good show or anything, quite the opposite. The moral of that episode seemed to be "if you whine enough you'll get what you want," which is an excellent lesson for children in the target age range.

Oh yeah I think I remember the episode that you're talking about, it loving ruled.

My favorite scene was the one where Skeeter blasts Doug with a flamethrower, and then Doug's head pops off and grows legs and starts to skitter away like a spider and Roger goes "You've got to be loving KIDDING me, Funnie!" That made me laugh my tits off as a little kid.

They're good roasted or pickled and can make your poo look like you have a bad case of gastrointestinal tract bleeding. Beets on the whole are good.

Parsnips can get hosed though.

I watched a couple of episodes recently for nostalgia's sake and it holds up pretty well- I think its surprisingly witty

The trick with Recess is that it's basically a prison/POW show set in an elementary school.

In Australia you slice them up and put them on a hamburger.

Japanese sweet potatoes (the ones with purple skin and yellowish-white flesh) baked whole with a little salt is pretty much the best potato experience available.

I do this every now and then, sometimes with carrots too. Good stuff.

Oh, Doug, yeah I watched it, but it really doesn't leave much of an impression. It had a fun soundtrack and musical style that left an impression.

Rugrats also had a unique soundtrack, which was done by Mark Mothersbaugh. I don't recommend going back and watching that show though. I watched it several years ago on the teenick(or whatever its called now) nicktoons revival and it is really pretty bad, for the most part.

I remember 2 distinct things about Rugrats:

1) Tommy being freaked out about cutting himself and having a dream(?) about toy stuffing coming out of the cut instead of blood.
2) Angelica convincing the babies that she was psychic, but getting the word wrong and cheerily proclaiming, "I'm a psycho!"

Wait, 3 things.
3) Grandpa had alien roleplay porno tapes.

Chuckie (I think?) bathing in the borscht to get rid if the skunk smell and Tommy's paternal grandfather taking a sip later.

I could never get into Rugrats because I found the art style so dreadfully off putting. Doug was just sort of bland filler until Ren & Stimpy or Rocko came on but I'd change the channel to avoid Rugrats. That's probably how I stumbled on Beavis & Butthead and got turned into a monster by "evil" cartoons like Congress was freaking out about at the time.

Borscht is kind of like chicken noodle soup in that there are so many variants and styles you could probably spend weeks diving down that culinary hole.

I really want to agree here but I just can't with artichokes. I've tried several ways and the only way I can even tolerate them is when they're smothered by cheese in a dip. Even then, the artichoke can poke through in an unpleasant way.

I love 'em on pizza and BLTs, but bitter/sour is my favorite type of flavor. Definitely get where people wouldn't like them.

Beets taste like dirt to me. Like, actual earthy soil.
