Ren & Stimpy is stranger and more terrifying than I remember. I didn't think that was possible.
Kids can often rationalize messed up shit much better then adults.

(Assuming you first saw it as a kid)
I think the problem was that I didn't rationalize it as a kid. Come to think of it, I kind of had the same reaction with Courage the Cowardly Dog.


Sorry if I'm turning this into the 90's nostalgia thread.

Well, I guess what I meant by "rationalize" was "go with the flow".

Remember when I said that EA would start intentionally crippling it's games to get at the pirates? (maybe it was the rage or sad thread, but whatever)

It's happening.

I've been trying to find out for a while now why I only had about ten gigs left on my computer despite the fact that the only thing I had on the computer proper rather than my external hard drive was a couple of older games, various text documents, and a couple of audio files I never got around to moving. So a friend of mine who's been playing around with various computer stuffs booted Ubuntu off of a flash drive and scanned the hard drive.

Apparently I have a recursive file loop in my Application Data folder (which is eating up a good 100gb) and a fifth partition that shouldn't be able to exist (we have no clue what it does or is supposed to do.)

We showed my computer to a comp-sci after discovering this and he just went over into a corner and started crying.

Apparently I can now be described as "sassy."  I am officially a sassy gay man.  I'm not sure how I feel about this.

It almost makes one think EA is secretly pro-piracy, with how much they help the actual pirates.

There's actually some stuff I went back and watched that absolutely terrified me, at least in Courage the Cowardly Dog.

It's a weird situation. Ren and Stimpy has gotten more freaky and disturbing as I've aged, whereas Courage was scary as a child but doesn't have enough shock factor to scare me now.

I was playing Shadow president, doing normal things America does. Invading countries, condemning Iraq, coup d'etats, baking cookies. I managed to overthrow communism in the USSR and instate capitalism, and this happened.

Anyone else confused?

"I have to defeat the communists!"

And then America was Soviet.

I've seen that happen before, though mostly from nuclear war. The WTAs are surprisingly not locked. China is grey because it is its own, unlisted, WTA.
