Interesting article that takes a deep dive into the personality of Marcie from Peanuts, with some cool strips. Bonus: no "Patty and Marcie are really lesbians, right, hurr hurr?"

Bell is also thoroughly despised in the deaf community for advocating oralism and speaking out against deaf intermarriage.

Okay, so you leave out Ebony because he's a horrible racial stereotype that's probably beyond rehabilitation ... but then you bring in the Dragon Lady.

Also, I've always wondered about some of those paralympic events. Why is there a running race for blind people? Why didn't those four just go in the real olympics? They're obviously fast enough to qualify.

Ripley's doesn't show it, but the blind runners run in tandem with a sighted guy who keeps them in lane and lets them know if anything's in the way.

Not exactly a radical statement from today's Curtis, but still pleasantly surprising because I would have figured it'd have the "pull up your pants black kids" kinda viewpoint on modern racism.

Ray Billingsley is a cranky old man about some stuff (mostly rap music), but he hasn't gone full Cosby yet.

Believable, although I don't think 60s Batman ever actually had a VHS release.

The movie did.

Also, I'm old enough to be nostalgic about some of this stuff, and even I find this nauseating.

Mad Dog Coll, at least, got gunned down in a phone booth.

It does seem a natural spot for an assassination -- nowhere to run or hide, and the guy is probably distracted and has the receiver in his hand.

Anybody had one of those donut burgers? Just wondering.

I've had them at the fair. They're the ideal fair food: horrible unhealthy poo poo that you would never eat anywhere else.

Not that bad actually, but the glaze melts and makes your fingers all sticky.

I've decided that Baldo is the result of someone deciding that there needs to be more positive depictions of Hispanic people in the media, without the realization that there should also be good story telling, character development, jokes, etc.

Curtis is the same thing, except for black people.

It's 50% that and 50% spinning backstage conspiracy theories about why your favorite wrestler is not getting to do cool things but meanwhile there's yet another segment for a wrestler you don't like.

Pretty fun, all in all, but there's an exhausting amount of stuff to keep up with these days. It's easy to burn out.

What are you talking about? HHH is obviously holding down Pink Socks Guy and giving Blue Socks Guy a totally undeserved push.
