Hippocrass posted:Ah, yes. Classic pets such as: Shetland pony, several RARE turtles, 'baby' alligator, and even a parrot(where state law allows) It was common back then for unscrupulous animal dealers in Florida to sell baby alligators as pets to tourists who had no idea that gators live as long as humans or how large they get. That's the genesis of the urban legend about albino alligators living in New York City's sewers -- supposedly the descendants of "pet" gators who got flushed when they became too troublesome to keep.

Howard Beale posted:There were several programs in the 40s which produced radio versions of the big budget adaptations that MGM et al released (often with many of the same stars repeating their roles). After a little bit of looking I've so far found that "Screen Guild Theater" presented The Yearling in 1947 (from the 1946 film), and the "Academy Award" program in 1946 put on The Prisoner of Zenda, but presumably based on the film from a decade previously. The 900 pound gorilla of the movies-for-radio genre was Lux Radio Theater, which was basically the trailblazer that made studios recognize people would listen to boiled-down movie plots with big stars in them and still pay for a ticket to see the same plot on the screen. But really, there was a lot of the Canon being bounced around during the Golden Age of American commercial radio, back when high culture was enough of a culturewide default that Toscanini was on the payroll at 30 Rock. My favorite example was the summer of 1937, when NBC and CBS got into a ratings war with Shakespeare adaptations. And all that before Orson Welles got warmed up. Anyway, time for cartoons. Mutts  Sally Forth  Peanuts (August 13, 1976)  Crankshaft  Mutt and Jeff  Rip Haywire: Ka-RERUN!  Thimble Theater, in which Popeye's even more ready for the main event than we are.

I know Josh is an rear end in a top hat in retail but since most of the others are too, I find him less annoying than most of the others. I used to work with a guy like him who was by the book, no rule bending, nothing. But once you got to learn that, it was loving easy to work with him because there was no ulterior motive for him. Wait. How is there global warming and climate change in Safe Havens of all loving places? Can't the main characters just DNA magic some bullshit up like they always do?

Josh ridiculed the idea that employees who are underpaid will work harder if given cash incentives, entirely on his own without prompting or teaching from Stuart. He may be a tolerable evil day to day but he's the enemy.

This is a pretty good gag. No wonder this kid's losing the nerd contest if he thinks Han Solo's cooler than Chewie.  Also a good lesson here. If someone's being a jerk, it's their problem; it's not up to you to fix them. Cowslips Warren posted:Wait. How is there global warming and climate change in Safe Havens of all loving places? Can't the main characters just DNA magic some bullshit up like they always do? No, see, DNA Wizard can't make her findings public because what if someone misuses her potions?* She can't let it be known that she can just make broad, sweeping changes to the world at her leisure.** * Please ignore that she uses her lab and lackeys in the university to conduct unethical experiments all the goddamn time. ** Please ignore the time she created an entirely new hosed-up ecosystem for Mars that's public knowledge and caused the scientific community to hate her guts. Or that other time where the mermaids revealed their existence to the world and DNA Wizard solved racial tensions by introducing a mermaid hookup app for humans with a mermaid fetish.

Oh, there we go! Wikipedia says Lux did Great Expectations on October 13, 1947. (Howard Beale says dammit, my collection is incomplete; I didn't see the ep when I looked thru my stuff earlier.)

Doomykins posted:Jucika "194 - 'Happy New Year. Pusztai Pál'' OMG none! She's not RL, she's like Kell who only kills and eats Bad People Who Deserve It. as a kid I remember watching Gargoyles and Batman: The Animated Series, and both had stories where mad scientists made people into humanoid animals. And all I could think was, gently caress, I'd sign up for that! I want to be a cat person who has electric powers! I don't want to really be a gorilla person though, but can I pick what I can be? Like a dragon or something cool? I had no idea what furries were (and am not one, but as a kid the idea of being able to have that kinda body was cool) and always thought those scientists were morons. Nowadays the idiots could charge for that kinda poo poo and they'd never have a day off.

Unless she's stopped, she'll be around forever.

I had a similar thought watching Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster, which has a Mars Needs Women/Devil Girl from Mars type plot. I've seen the internet, if these aliens had just landed and said "we need volunteers to help repopulate our planet," they'd be spoiled for choice. If anything, the volunteers would be disappointed that the aliens are just people in space suits.
