^^^ Ariong posted:Hey remember the SNL character Pat? They were androgynous. I don't know what the movie was about. I thought the funny part of Pat sketches wasn't laughing at the character, but rather laughing at the increasingly frustrated people trying to fit him/her into a definite category and failing.

Not a TV episode, but I was thinking about Weird Al recently and one of his songs, The Night Santa Went Crazy has aged badly in that no one in the US of twenty years ago knew that "gyped" was a racial slur. There's probably some other stuff with the same problem.

Sir Lemming posted:Well if you want to go down that rabbit hole, surely "baby" would have to be even creepier. Baby has gotten somewhat normalised, so I think little girl sounds much creepier. It's got Big Bad Wolf vibes. I like to use random nouns. Every so often there's one that goes over badly*, but it's all part of the fun. *teacup pig

Mash holds up because it is still watchable and funny. It is not a show about mentally healthy people.

If you want to make yourself sick, walk down the Valentine's day aisle at CVS and look at the piles and piles of crap being made from the finite resources of the planet. Captain Planet hasn't aged well, because it's clear he lost on basically every front. Hatred and capitalism win, forever.

food court bailiff posted:i bet the love life of this guy who came into the old tv thread to bitch about valentines day is really good & healthy lmfao It's just the holiday that's on display atm. Candy, cards, flowers:all fine. 12 inch statues of Mickey Mouse with hearts and giant heart pillows and eight different kinds of licensed character valentines stuffed animals (that aren't even soft): bleh. Where do people go with this stuff? I think most of it gets thrown away. It will be the same for St. Patrick's day or whatever's next. I watched Planet of the Apes today and Charleston Heston was smoking on a space ship. Also, the girl on the spaceship was there to be constantly pregnant the rest of her life.

Tiggum posted:Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a really good movie buried within an incredibly long and tedious one. I'm pretty sure you could improve the whole thing just by cutting it down to essentially just the good bits. I used to think it would be a good idea if they offered unpadded reality TV. Then I realized anyone who really cared wouldn't be watching it in the first place. Inescapable Duck posted:Goddamn, you should see anime. There's a reason all the remotely worthwhile ones are like, 20 episodes max. And how much they were able to cut out of Dragon Ball Z to get rid of the filler and padding. 26

LIVE AMMO ROLEPLAY posted:Every minority has another minority they like to poo poo on. It's hosed up. People who write erotic versions of Star Trek, where all the characters are furries, like Kirk is an ocelot or something, and they put a furry version of themselves as the star of the story. I sometimes wonder if there is a bottom rung to the ladder of society, and I think it might be coprophiliacs.

^^^ there's no way I can pack as fast as they scan, so when I'm finally done packing, the cashier has been standing there, waiting for me to pay. I enjoy getting my stuff bagged because it's almost always done competently and leaves me free to focus on paying, letting all of us get out of there faster. Also, I will never use self checkout because the store is already severely understaffed and I want to support people being employed. Beachcomber has a new favorite as of 03:48 on Jan 10, 2019 |

sassassin posted:But you can't pay until everything's been scanned. There's a big window of time to be bagging your fruits and vegetables. Well first I need to put in my phone number so I get the club card "savings", and then I can start the payment process by putting my card in the slot, and by that time all my stuff is bagged anyway.

Torquemada posted:I can pack faster and more accurately than any convenience store motherfucker on earth and have my debit card ready to pay at the same time. Plus if you pack your own stuff, you can make sure toothpaste doesn’t end up in the fridge bag. Convenience stores are different. In the grocery store the checkouts aren't even designed for you to pack your own stuff. You either need to awkwardly reach over and around the coin dispenser or move to the end where the bagger stands, and if you do that, you have to move back to the card scanner, squeezing past your cart both times.  Also, lol if all your bags aren't freezer bags.

Jedit posted:Indeed. Highlander: the Series was an early adopter of "kill a lead character meaninglessly", but it was for reasons beyond their control rather than attempts to shock. First Duncan's Parisian mentor Darius had to be written out at the end of S1 after Werner Stocker died suddenly of a brain tumour aged just 38. Then as production began on S2 Alexandra Vandernoot fell pregnant and had to be written out because for obvious reasons they couldn't write the pregnancy into the show. She was held captive by a villain and they couldn't write a pregnancy into the show?
