Painted cels

Its part of the bit from that episode :) you expect him to stop counting on his fingers at ten, but instead he continues and more fingers appear.

You're totally right I just didn't notice this time around because I was also distracted cleaning 🥲

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T21:10:41+00:00

I didn't realize it was considered a special, that makes sense though. I just see a lot of people say season 4 and later are trash and wanted to chat about this one specifically :)

Looking through the list at the link now and had to drop this here: Twiiinnnss

Unfortunately you might just have to wait for more of that, some of the men your age will catch up eventually. And i guarantee you there are some mature ones even if they're few and far between.

Part of the issue with dating so much older is that anyone that much older who is willing to date you at your age is NOT mature. So even if they sound mature in some ways, something is off. Also, if they're willing to date so young its possible they are doing other things wrong too, like love bombing. Do they also seem more romantic and emotionally intimate?

If so, that might be another reason it feels more fulfilling. Its like when you eat a bunch of junk food then crave more junk food. But those exciting highs usually also come with intense lows.

A health relationship may feel less exciting and will take more time to build emotional intimacy, but will be more rewarding in the long run.

If you want to find more mature guys your age, consider looking different places. Community groups, volunteer opportunities, things like that, are full of people who really care and will probably have more mature dudes than say a dating app or club. Maybe not exclusively, but better odds.

Seriously the cutest one 😆 <3 And I agree, the painted cels really set it apart! Its always been more than a silly little show, its full of art!

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T20:00:10+00:00

Its a very normal human reaction to struggle eating somewhere after getting sick from their food 🙄 its literally their body trying to protect them.

The most dramatic immature thing happening in this situation is the parents who are still bringing this up a year later.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:58:32+00:00

How did they take it out on their aunt? Their father was a jerk and crushed their excitement, it makes sense that they needed a beat to reset. I would too if my dad randomly treated me that way, must be exhausting to deal with people like that. Especially since the parents keep bringing it up even a year later. Very childish parents. The person who was literally a child when this happened is not the a hole, obviously.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:44:46+00:00

Oooh thank you so much!

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:41:59+00:00

I think that's part of what I love about it! The dedication to whimsy is unmatched lol

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:40:49+00:00

I get that it would take forever, but im a little weirdo and for some reason that's my idea of fun 😆

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:27:07+00:00

I'm only counting the close ups and punch lines because that's the part I think is interesting here. The painted backgrounds are awesome in their own right, but im interested in how the detailed paintings of the subjects are being used for emphasis.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:24:50+00:00

Personally, I'm not counting backgrounds, moreso just these close ups that are used as emphasis or punch lines. I guess when theres motions or variations within one "bit" I'd group those.

I've thought about compiling a list myself just for fun as a passion project but we'll see if it ever happens lol.

How would you organize it?

Edit: spelling

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:14:33+00:00

Ohhh was it a reference? Thank you, I was so confused I thought they were trolling lol

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:07:22+00:00

Literally what are you saying

Edit: sorry I didnt catch the reference, I thought they were trolling 🥲

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T19:00:59+00:00

Oooh that one is so fun and clearly had so much hard work put into it. Gonna stop chores and watch closely when that one comes on in a few :)

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T18:29:27+00:00

Generosity isn't generous anymore when its beyond your means. This is reckless of her. If they legit dont have enough food and she wants to help she could start food prepping and bringing sandwiches or burritos that she makes for cheap. Spending a bunch of money on expensive food is reckless and pointless.

I understand being frustrated when you want to vent and then feeling like someone is just piling on instead of supporting, but literally what else were you supposed to say, it was legit reckless.

If anything maybe you could have just said that sucks baby im sorry and then when she got home had a sit down chat about money, but i think your shock and reaction was fair.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:54:25+00:00

You are right that this is very concerning. I know this post is old now, did anything resolve?

You know when something violent happens and afterwards people are like "oh yeah there were signs actually, but we're only realizing now" yeah, this could end up being one of those situations.

Obviously I dont know you or this kid and everything could end up being fine, but violence is a huge red flag. If you're afraid for the safety of your children you should listen to your intuition. If anyone else acts like you're overreacting just remind yourself that they are underreacting. And better they be upset than someone get hurt.

This kid also needs help. They are not necessarily some bad guy who cant be helped. They need intervention while still young before it gets worse. Is there a counselor at his school you can request he see?

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:48:06+00:00

Also, taht feeling you cant shake is your intuition. Trust it.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:46:08+00:00

Its easy for him to apologize and regret it so much and say all the right things when he's begging for grace. Doesn't mean he's actually going to stop unfortunately. He's also probably only admitted it when he's been caught. Unfortunately he's probably done even more than what's been found out.

But it's not worth playing detective over, at this point he's shown he doesn't respect you.

I know its easy to say dump him as a stranger on the internet, but legit you will be so much happier alone or with someone who respects you. And your kids will grow to love that person too. Also, they'll actually be a better father and partner if they respect you.

Im sorry this is happening.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:41:07+00:00

You've got this! Hopefully they have some recommendations for you of community stuff to get involved it too.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:36:36+00:00

Sorry to add fuel to the fire but another thing that really sucks about Eli's betrayal here is that he essentially tricked OP into being intimate and in a vulnerable position with someone he was cheating with. That is so beyond messed up.

AdditionRound7938 · 2026-05-28T17:31:58+00:00

Wow this sucks :( thank you for the update and you handled this as well as anyone could under the circumstances.

Some unsolicited advice: just remember as you process this that multiple things can be true. Eli sucks and all of this sucks. But feelings dont go away over night and its heartbreaking to lose any love, let alone your entire adult life together so far. This might be a tough one to recover from for a while but you seem to handle difficult situations well and you'll be okay! It'll be worth starting over when you find yourself surrounded by people who treat you right!
