I... I can only look though the window...

The thing that gets me is that "Stephen King's Twitter Account Run By a Parrot" is actually a decent joke but they ruin it because they just can't contain their vitriol so they have make it a Mentally Ill, drugged out parrot. With Tourette's!

It's a good point though. Twitter has always been garbage and now its sole purpose is to provide Elon with narcissistic supply. Just stop looking at it and do something else, you won't regret it.

Oh for sure

I guess what I'm getting at is that the quantity of Cartman has a quality

Like if Southpark had gone for like 4 seasons and been a funny artifact of the late 90s it would be easy to look at it and appreciate the joke of Cartman

But given now that the show has been going for nearly 30 years now the joke has taken on new cultural cache where the Cartman identity has been formative for some discourse and the relationship between the fans and creators has been enabled to become reciprocal

I find myself happy to have never met a person who thinks of Cartman as anything other than the antagonist of the show. The whole point of him is he’s a piece of poo poo but when you think back to school days you probably had someone in your group who was just a tremendous rear end in a top hat yet still was tolerated for reasons unexplained. If you can’t identify them you probably were that person.

That's how it goes, some people are not going to get the joke. Like do you remember when a bunch of chuds got mad when someone told them that Homelander, a guy who fantasized about murdering people and had literally a nazi girlfriend, might be a bad guy?

If it was just a parrot the joke would not be nearly hardcore enough.

The original guys were apparently just interested in making fun of how the church does things, when it got mildly successful it got bought over by a couple alt right types and then it immediately pivoted to weird culture war poo poo
