god damn kids are difficult sometimes. Cousins 5 yr old twins Matthew and Kylie are visiting for a whole month. trying to explain Tiny Toons to them and they’re not grasping the concept that Elmyra is a reimagining of Elmer Fudd. oh, so you can get that Babs is a version of Bugs, but this is too much of a stretch for you? ya, STFU bitches. god, idk how you people with kids do it.

by “it”, i mean explaining early 90’s cartoons to skeptical minds. not the other bullcrap in child rearing. i already know that shits a breeze.

UPDATE: I posted this on Facebook and had someone who thinks they’re smart try to call me a “chump” over the claim that Babs Bunny is modeled after Lola and only Buster is the mini Bugs…

Ahem…. Lola wasn’t invented till 6 years after Tiny Toons.
Buster and Babs (B&B) are split personalities of the big B – Buster having the calm and smarmy self assuredness and schemery, Babs having his penchant for costumes, over-reactions and bipolar emotions. gawd. kids these days…

now I’m pissed cuz I don’t remember what that’s called. i keep wanting to say archaic… UG. wtf is a mistake in a movie or something called that contains something that didnt exist in that time period? like a Timex in a Western or a plane flying by in a Dinosaur flick? it has a name. and its driving me crazy.

UPDATE: web mistress of MissAshleyPants.com came to my rescue. the word for an example of false chronology is anachronism.

Matthew was so confident that I’ve never seen Tale Spin before that he was stupid enough to bet me his Popsicle (vs 2 if he was right) that i hadnt. watching the joy in his face fade into horror and sadness as I sang along every word of the opening theme – including the “spin it if you win it” bullshit (seen in the video below when Chris Wheeler was stupid enough to challenge me & Dwayne on this) was one of the best moments of the year.
