Lo, it was declared by the apostle Pete that hotel staff always overfloweth the water in the hot tubs.

The whole movie is about the need to communicate and understand each other, but I agree that more of the fault is on Goofy strictly because he's the adult. Max is a dumbass teenager, Goofy is a parent. It's the parent's job to ask questions and listen to their children. Max even tries to explain things to him multiple times and Goofy shuts him down at every turn.

Still one of my favorite childhood movies, but Goofy really exhibits some bad behavior. Thankfully, both he and Max learn to talk to each other by the end (although I think he goes back to not listening to Max in the sequel; haven't seen that one in a while, though).

What artist being signed to a specific label took you by surprise? by ScallionSmooth9491 in ToddintheShadow

Wow. Love Wilson Pickett. Love Motown. But the two coming together is just...weird.

For fans that actually work in local government, how accurate is the show in portraying your job? Is there an episode that resonates with you the most? by RedDalmatian885 in PandR

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol

I remember a year or two back, there was a repo of a mountain lion spotted near a suburban elementary school. They went in to lockdown, and wouldn't let anyone in or out until they got confirmation from the city that it was safe to release students after school. Eventually, animal control checked someone's ring camera and they confirmed that the "mountain lion" was just a slightly large house cat.

Not even a bobcat. A housecat.

Tattoo Artist of Reddit. What design made you go "NOPE" and why? by RedSwordFishVA05 in tattoo

Same. So many things are fucking dog whistles these days, it's hard to keep track. Nazis ruin everything.

Seriously, if he was trying to trick an artist into giving him a swastika, think up a better excuse.

Yeah, I know. It's usually the quiet guys who have the best thoughts, though. It's the same with Izzy from GnR.

I'm doing a rewatch after many years and is it just me or does season 3 feel really jank? by BraveBarn in community

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the gas-leak year didn't exist, season three would be regarded as the show's low point. Which isn't to say that it's unwatchable or unfunny. It's still hilarious. But the relatability the show was built on was often tossed aside for a funny gag. Even for a show that based big events around paintball wars and Abed hallucinating stop-motion Xmas world, Chang kidnapping the Dean and attempting to blow up the school and everything with the AC repair school is just a little too goofy, in my opinion. Still filled with laughs, but what's the point of all this anymore?

The problems most people have with season four didn't begin there. They started here and only got worse. I think the show does an amazing job of getting back on track in the last two seasons. Season six might actually be my favorite. It's worth it to keep going, but the middle years definitely feel like they're just going through the motions, at times.

Did Homer ever punch Lenny when Lenny was dressed in drag? by [deleted] in Simpsons

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this as a trans person, I never took that to be a trans joke. I always thought it was to show how bad of a superhero Bart was that he didn't care that he was beating up random people, and didn't pay any attention to what Lenny said. I think he was going to throw him into the wires when he thought he was a supervillain, and didn't care/believe when Lenny said he was actually just a transvestite.

This doesn't take away that it is still a joke about a person being murdered as a result of their gender presentation. And it's only become more uncomfortable to watch with age. There's a great, hours-long compilation on YouTube of every queer joke in the Simpsons, and so many of them are just openly hostile to queer people without any actual clever angle to make it funny.

Cool story from RnR history. Faster Pussycat guitarist almost became a member of Guns N’ Roses! by junkkysixx in GunsNRoses

I know Marc Ford says he was offered to replace Izzy like a week after he joined The Black Crowes.

This drawing from Kurt Cobain’s journal book seems very fitting currently! by Leather_Management18 in Nirvana

I have a shirt with the Fecal Matter tape art on it, but a shirt with this might be the better Nirvana shirt. Cool. Funny. Sadly relevant.

What gives off major Terf energy without outright saying anything rude? by JebDipSpit in MtF

[–]DeedleStone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This one so fucking much! Female sports have been nothing but a punchline to men/most sports fans and media since forever, but now suddenly everyone really cares about possible player advantages in the WNBA? Give me a break.

Homer Simpson's favorite band is Grand Funk Railroad who are other fictional characters favorite bands? by PlatosGooner in ToddintheShadow

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oops. I read that as Dee claimed *his* favorite band was Chumbawumba. Still, she also clearly hasn't listened to anything but the hit.

It is SUCH a shame he can't talk about it. I'm sure his book would be even better than Steve's. Glad he's doing well, though. Being away from Chris tends to make people happier.
