Julet Esqu posted:While it's true that the Beverly clock hasn't been wound since it was made in 1864, Wiki tells me that that's pretty much because it's not really made to be wound. Besides that, saying it hasn't been wound in so-many years isn't the same as saying it hasn't stopped in that time. It has, often for maintenance purposes. So, kind of a cop-out, Ripley's.

Simian_Prime posted:I... I don't think Matt Groening had a very good childhood, guys. Ugh, hate it when people propagate the inevitable cycle of abuse myth. Having an abused parent in a high-risk family means the odds jump from 10% to 23%, yeah. The odds are worse, yeah. That's not a guarantee, and what the pat 'cycle of abuse' story does is both shift blame away from the abuser, and tell the victim that they're a monster now. Neither of those are good things.

My great-grandmother was an abusive, terrible parent- that (and WWII) turned my grandpa bipolar, not abusive. I had more issues with "School is Hell", probably because of all the crap my teacher parents have had to go through. I know it sounds kind of authoritarian and oversensitive, but teaching kids to disrespect their teacher's authority is irresponsible and it has serious repercussions. If the parents reinforce this, you end up with kids who don't listen and don't give a poo poo, and our culture is inclined to blame the teacher for not "reaching them".

Simian_Prime posted:I... I don't think Matt Groening had a very good childhood, guys. I'm pretty sure he was trying to write an overly dramatic kid, but awareness of a societal problem caught up with him in the long run. MG told Rolling Stone back in the day that as a kid he kept a journal of childhood grievances and small injustices, then he went back to read it as an adult and decided that Kid Matt was totally on the money. And that's where Bongo came from. That and a night of Binky's drunken carousing.

While I agree with pretty much everything you're saying here, I doubt that his target audience was actual children. Even if you didn't know reader demographics of the alt-weeklies Life in Hell usually got published in back in the 80s, "jive-rear end baloney" is a dead giveaway.

Selachian posted:Well, he did name Homer and Marge after his parents... Speaking of which, Homer Groening was a filmmaker, and also apparently a cartoonist himself. While I can't find Homer's cartoons online, some of his short films are on YouTube. Here's one, which features young Matt Groening narrating: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYIH6tfeNtw By all accounts, Homer Groening was nothing like the cartoon character named after him, although the real Homer really loved donuts.
