Talking Meat
This may seem off the track but trust me, it relates.
I am not ashamed to say it - I love Adult Swim on the Cartoon Network. I have always loved cartoons and as I became an adult I discovered cartoons for big people. I mostly love Adult Swim because I really dig anime. I always have.
After That Baby was born, I would get up throughout the night for feedings and he and I would curl up on the couch in the dark and I would watch Adult Swim. I met great anime like Cowboy Bebop and Big O. I even started to follow Inuyasha. I looked forward to the nights. I looked forward to seeing those gawky looking dudes with crazy ass hair and those long lanky ladies with HUGE boobs! LOVE IT!
However! Somewhere along the line Cartoon Network decided that this stuff was just not cutting it. As if Space Ghost Coast to Coast wasn’t weird enough. So, they changed the line up - MY night-time feeding line up. They changed it with… with… with… CRAP! Crap like Aqua Teen Hunger Force! Some of you know what I am talking about. For those of you who don’t, let me explain. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a “show” about a crime fighting milkshake, bag of french fries and meatball. Yes. A meatball. Named Meatwad.
The reason I bring this up is that during the weeks leading up to Christmas, Season 1 of Aqua Teen Hunger Force became available on DVD.
Who watches this stuff enough to warrant a DVD collection????
A talking MEATBALL… named Meatwad! Who fights crime in New Jersey??
Good lord.
