*sigh* I woke up hearing one of the stupidest things I've ever heard... the radio show that I listen to in the morning has call in questions and one of today's was "Shows you won't let your children watch." Now this woman called in and said everything on the Cartoon Networks except for Scooby Doo was bad. She used Ed, Edd, & Eddy and Dexter's Lab by name.
Dexter's Lab is bad because it teaches kids to be mean to their siblings.
Ed, Edd, & Eddy is bad because it shows people getting hit with boards.
Now... I'm not a parent or anything and this is just my opinion... but I have babysat kids who have never even watched TV who are mean to their siblings. That's not something you learn from TV. That's something you learn when your parents don't step in. Yes, some people on Ed, Edd, & Eddy get hit by boards... but wait... Bugs Bunny used to hit people with boards back in the day. Oh wait... he used to shoot people too! And I've seen people get hit by boards on Scooby Doo before too.
Now not only are they changing Cookie Monster to the blue guy who eats cookies sometimes... I've heard they're getting rid of Oscar because he lives in people's garbage.
Bleh. I hate going to Wal-Mart. Too many people no matter what time you go.
New Lost tonight! *dances* And Speed Grapher Episode Five is out! Yay! *is super excited*
*stops dancing* Tonight's Lost is Kate-centric. Ick. I can't stand Kate.
EDIT: *dances again* I love Speed Grapher. Saiga is the awesome. I thought I was gonna die from cuteness or die laughing. I ♥s this series.

And goddamn them for changing Cookie Monster. What next? A name change to Carrot Monster? Or perhap Wheat Germ Monster? We really need to stop sheltering these kids today.
And about that Speed Grapher. I couldn't get past the first episode while dude broke the little girls arm. I was like O_O All unessecary (sp?) LOL

Speed Grapher is freaking awesome. It's dark, it's dirty.
Saiga is a one hot photog.The dancer guy creeped the hell out of me. I was all O_O too. But... let's just say karma is a bitch and a half. Once I got past Saiga getting a stiffy when he took pictures of dead people I was all "this show is fucking awesome."no subject
