    The first season of power rangers was the best because they just strung together random japanese super sentai action scenes using a paper thin plot that made almost no sense. The kids would be in their shitty LA suburb, at their combination martial arts gym / restaurant / whatever the fuck that place was. And then suddenly a monster unrelated to the plot would come down, they'd all put on their suits, get totally different body types (including the girls no longer looking like girls), and get warped to a featureless desert where the fight would occur.

    YES! And I remember thinking "where the fuck are they? that doesn't look like the town where the kids live. why are they wrecking a city and it's not a huge deal?" But because I was 7 years old I just assumed I must be wrong and accepted it.

    Michael Airington, a writer for the series, also sang the theme song (in an impersonated Paul Lynde voice)

    Paul Lynde was Uncle Arthur, on Bewitched.

    The very first thing I ever heard about X-Men, the first time I ever heard that title used, was one afternoon when I'd been doing some ADR for [Superman director] Richard Donner, on a movie of his that I had been in. I got a note to call in at Lauren Shuler Donner's office – that's his wife, the producer. I walked in the door, Lauren picked something up from her desk and held it up. And I looked at it, and I said, "What am I doing on the front of a comic book?" And she said, "Exactly."

    there's always that one person who wishes you happy birthday on fb who you met once like 6-7 years ago and never talked to once since

    and just

    why?

    I can't even be bothered to wish the people I'm best friends with happy birthday on facebook.

    Wishing it to old schoolmates I haven't seen in a decade sounds like madness and/or Sparta.

    I have a tiered system:

    - Girl I find creepy or am not attracted to: "Happy Birthday" with no punctuation
    - Girl I haven't talked to in a long time but is super hot: "Happy Birthday!!!!"
    - Girl I talked to last less than two years ago: "Happy Birthday!!!! How have you been?"
    - Girl I talked to last within the last 10 months: "Happy Birthday!!!! We should catch up!"
    - Girl that's a really good friend and I have no romantic chance with or interest in or family: "Happy Birthday!! I wish you a wonderful year of health and happiness!!"
    - Guy: "hb"

    *checks the last time you wished me a happy birthday*

    :shock

    I don't remeber watching a lot of cartoons growing up, other than Looney Tunes. But as I got older that was phased out by the networks for some reason and I never got into the shows they replaced it with.

    It's also why Ive always hated golf, because every once in a while my Saturday morning Looney Tunes would get preempted by a fucking golf tournament.

    Who puts Golf on TV on a Saturday morning? It's supposed to be Saturday afternoon so you can use it as a nap aid.

    @Apothe0sis‌

    Imagining the conversations in the writer's room makes it so much better.
    W1: So, we, uh. We got this new cartoon...but no script.

    W2: Ok, let's watch it to figure it out.

    ...

    W1: Hmm.

    W2: ..yeah...

    W1: Well, they seem to be...cats...who make pizza...and are...samurai?

    W2: Seems so, yes.

    W1: And they do not seem to keen on that bird.

    W2: No. No, they do not.

    W1: I guess he's the villain?

    W2: Sure. Why not?

    I feel bad. I may have misled an older gentleman at the bar about his chances.

    His chances were 100% when I walked in, but dropped to 0% after I propositioned him and he didn't immediately leave with me. But then I guess he was still into it, but the boat had sailed.
