Surprising things from the retro cartoon channel, subsection "you really couldn't make that today": think it was a Harvey Studios, one of their 'tortoise and the hare' shorts from the '50s. Wherein after losing to the turtle again, the hare cartoonishly but unambiguously commits suicide. Pulls a gun out of hammerspace, shoots himself, angel floats off, iris out.

Boy howdy. Yeah, you couldn't get away with that today.

A ponderance: we've probably all said "not my circus, not my monkeys" at some point. And unfortunately sometimes it is both your circus and your monkeys.

If that situation were only half true, which would be worse?
- It is your circus, still not your monkeys
- Not your circus, but it is your monkeys

(The definition of 'worse' is left as an exercise for the reader.)

I've actually never heard that phrase. I mean, I can figure what it means and all. I've just never heard it before. When it comes to that situation, I actually go with the title of a Metallica song. "It ain't my bitch!"

I pulled an all nighter babysitting an AC that's leaking buckets, and I'm still waiting to find out when an AC guy will be here to look at it. I got a text telling me to call a number that told me to wait for a call from another number that'll tell me when my appointment is. Still waiting.

I have at various times given my 7-year-old son a lot of guff for watching videos of people playing Minecraft on YouTube.

I recently remembered that when I was around his age, I watched shows like "Video Power", "Nick Arcade", "Captain N the Gamemaster", and "The Super Mario Bros Super Show".

From now on, I'm going to have to think twice about giving him guff about Minecraft, before I do it anyway. At least we never had anything like "Lava Chicken" back in my day...

I've been hearing my whole life about how people's attention spans are getting worse and no one has free time anymore but then I click on a seven-hour Twitch VOD on YouTube from less than a day ago and the comment section is already full of people talking about something that happens six hours in and I'm just like HOWWWWWWWWWWW
