[Slurpee]

one of these ducks was like the Gambit of the team and the main thing I remember about this show is thinking he was like 50 times cooler than the other ducks

also they killed off their Leonardo in like the first episode. or not killed but he was lost in hyperspace I think when he stepped out to wrestle an electric space worm off the hull of the ship?
but it wasn't as bold of a decision as it sounds because they just had a second Leonardo on the team to take his place and it was just so his character arc could be like "can I really take his place? am I boring and generic enough to be the leader?"

[PhantomCatClock]

leonardo was the leader, sure, but raphael was the red one, and therefore the leader

I had two toys from the Mighty Ducks show and remember nothing else about it at all



disney should keep making cartoons about their investments. i want an action figure of a rag-tag team of lawyers that change the law so only disney can buy media companies

[Slurpee]

shit, did anyone remember to wake up billie joe armstrong?

the seventies on seven dj banter is on some "WE DRANK FROM THE HOSE AND TURNED OUT FINE, REMEMBER POLYESTER LMAO, GETTING TO 3RD BASE IN A FORD PINTO WOOOOOO!" shit

I always think of Slurp when i think of Carol King. That Pierre song, GOOD SHIT.

no that's me you're supposed to think of, I'm the one telling you the whole Really Rosie album is better than Tapestry

hey so i looked at the mighty ducks picture and barely remembering the cartoon I was like 'was the one guy's head actually a giant fist' before figuring out whose body part was whose

[Slurpee]

I opened the disney+ app to see if they had the mighty ducks cartoon and they do
and I didn't watch it, but I did look at the thumbnail for a good 8 seconds or so

I showed it to my last roommate and he didn't make it past the intro theme


For context, he made it about two minutes into Gargoyles

I remember wondering as a kid "are there normal ducks in this universe? what would they do if they met a normal duck?" iirc there was never an on-screen normal duck at any point.

you can just say he's a coward

[PhantomCatClock]

Gargoyles was a rad as hell premise but i don't remember any of it


not the turning into statues thing, i just mean that they opened it up with THERE'S A CURSE THAT LASTS A THOUSAND YEARS

there's one—only one—that actually makes me want to change the channel for five seconds until I think he's done. It just feels like someone standing up at a party, when nobody was talking to him, and shouting, "HUH MAN BACK SEAT WITH NO SEATBELT, HUH? A RITE OF PASSAGE. GOOD THING WE ALL SURVIVED, HEH"

like, they took the cool observation that someone said in response to something else 70s-ish but said it without the response





also one of the talking bits has Thunderstruck playing in the background so i think they're going to start playing that which is a RUGPULL but it doesn't happen often and today it happened between hotel california and crocodile rock so it was a special occasion i guess

[Slurpee]

my parents love that "and we survived" chestnut, but every time we have a family gathering everybody in their age group has a conversation about their childhood and it inevitably turns to all their friends and relatives who absolutely did not survive

There's a specialization subclass or whatever in D&D for rogues where you join some kind of assassin guild and the prereq is you have to kill someone purely to enter the guild. It's not a bank guard, or to further a political agenda, or stop/start a battle, it's just some rando target chosen purely because there is nothing to gain but entry into the murder club for the murder class—which was awesome until I remember that's how the cousin I played Super Nintendo with died

ay yo what has four legs in the morning two at noon and three at night

[VCRClock]

I'ma give you until the next page to guess

[VCRClock]

while you're waiting, why not enjoy an ice cold Mike's Harder Lemonade (drink responsibly)?

[VCRClock]

ok the answer is:

not man

where did you get that dumb ass idea
when did I say 'morning' 'noon' and 'night' were metaphors for stages of life? oh yeah, never

the correct answer is: many chairs do, or any animal (NOT MAN) that has four legs

they have four legs in the morning. it's true that they also have four legs at noon and night, but if you ask a warthog at noon "hey buddy do you have two legs I could borrow" it'd say yeah, because four is more than two. ditto for evening, if you have four legs, you have three legs plus one to spare

I wonder if the riddle of the sphinx made sense in ancient greek

def feels like something was lost in translation

I'm replaying Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon (while able to read a lot of the signs AWWWWWWWWWWW YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE) and there are definitely jokes that were Japanese puns that they didn't even bother to try to rework for English. They just translated them word for word, which I guess I also appreciate
