ok ok POSTING already

Yeah... popular demand. Out of fear for life and limb. From sheer boredom, maybe.
This month's post is actually a rant in disguise. Not a very good disguise mind you... bit like one of those blokes you see wearing groucho glasses and a pink nose lurking in corners at halloween parties. You know you got to stop staring but can't and then you're trapped in lame conversation about potatoes and their impact on our existance...
Ok. Wrong rant. Here's the right one:
Why Do Uneducated People Bitch About Kiddie Stuff???
Visit this link and you'll get some of my irritation. I mean there are people out there who watch kids tv with the sole intention of tearing into it. Does this not seem pointless to them? I mean who cares if there is a purple dino singing songs? Or a grown guy in a green rugby shirt acting like an ass to make a bunch of kids laugh? Welcome to the joys of The Remote Control! Change the stupid channel you brain dead progeny of a one eyed ptarmigan! Who's forcing you to watch television aimed at and designed for 3 year olds?
And it ticks me off more when these same bright sparks claim Calvin as their icon. Come on you dolts! Calvin will watch ANYTHING! The oatmeal offering to the idiot box ring any bells? Yeesh. Get some fresh air. Read a book once in a while. Oh, and watch some BBC or MTV or something. Four important letters to blokes who spend their afternoons in front of NickJr... ESPN!
Don't get me wrong... You want baby stuff and sing along cos you have a cold and are miserable? Sure, watch some kiddie cartoon. There are really well made ones. Good production. Good animation.
But then don't crib.
It's like eating Farex and complaining its not crunchy and spicy. Or wearing diapers instead of boxers.
Or maybe that's exactly what they do...
