This is why I love Etsy. You find the most random, hilarious shit. I once found a maxi pad printed with the democrat donkey under the listing "For bleeding liberals."
When I see stuffed animals looking dead, hurt or lonely, I feel sad. I had a stuffed octopus as a kid that I keep in storage, and I reorganized my storage unit a few weeks ago. When I saw that I had placed him in a corner where he was all squashed and his eyes hidden, I had to rearrange him so I wouldn't feel bad. /Yes, I am a weirdo.
@margareita metermaid: Oh my God, I do that, too. My husband thinks I'm crazy. I cannot throw stuffed animals away; I have all the ones from my childhood situated in a room so they are comfortable with eyes showing. And I cannot pass stuffed animals in the store. They all look so sad and lonely and I can't resist the urge to buy them all so they won't be said anymore.
Giving human characteristics to inanimate objects...this must be a sign of some psychosis, yes? I'm a total freak.
@margareita metermaid: when I was a kid I rotated the stuffed animals on my bed/which ones I slept with so that none of them would get jealous or lonely.
@jemandtheholograms: I did that, too. Also, if I got angry and threw one of my stuffed animals, I always picked it up and cuddled it and told it how sorry I was. I can't bring myself to toss any of the ones at my mom's house. I will save them forever.
This is how I got my X eyes, folks. I donated my body to smience. When they cut me open they found Combos, the soundtrack to Xanadu, and a "Love is" sampler I made of me and Sarah.of.a.lesser.God. Now I'm a ghost. Woooo!
@happysquid: OMFG. I just hearted you so hard. Was that the episode where they go "Naaakkkeeed, totally naakked"/film Rocko sleepwalking or is that another?
@happysquid: Oh my god, I still go around saying "GEWD MOARNINGK, LEETLE PEENTO." Because the Chameleon Brothers were really avant-garde and they did this creepy voiceover over all the footage of Rocko's environs? And when Spunky appeared on the camera, they were like "GEOOOD MOARNINGK, LEEEETLE PINTO!!1"
I still go around saying that in that weird accent. That was like, over ten years ago.
@mervbaby: @happysquid: @mervbaby: Holy CRAP you guys! I'm hearting everybody. Do y'all remember the episode where Mr. Bighead's company came up with giraffe repellant? Or the one where the store had the 99.9999% off sale?
@Leslie: The other day, I was trying to convince my boyfriend to do something, and I just kept saying, "Do it...DO it...do IT...DO IT!" and about an hour later I realized it was from one of the first episodes of Rocco's modern Life when he buys the crazy vaccuum that sucks up his entire house.
@Leslie: OH! The "spring cleaning" episode? "R- E-C-Y-C-L-E, recycle, C -O-N-S-E-R-V-E CONSERRRRVE, don't you P-O-L-L-U-T-E, pollute the land or sky or sea, or else you're gonna get what you deserrrve!" And Mr. Bighead had to be lifted in a crane to put a filter on this smokestack that was belching stuff into the atmosphere?
@hydrogen_jukebox: Hahaha! That's awesome. When my boyfriend is about to do laundry, he walks around the house saying "Laundry day is a very dangerous day..." from an episode way back when. I miss all these old cartoons.
@happysquid: Rocco's Modern Life party? Count me in!
I watched this show when I was little. My dad thought it was hilarious. I don't think I got most of it but I'm gonna find it online ASAP and watch the whole damn series =)
@Bunny_of_doom: has a man cold. Someone dial 999: I hope you can feel me hearting you because I'm doing it harder than I ever have before.(okay, so that was an Aqua Teen reference. but whatevs!)
@mervbaby: @happysquid: I lived for Rocko's Modern Life as a kid. My favorite episode was the one about Pinky the Appendix, when Rocko took Pinky to the amusement park because he felt guilty that he was abandoning him.
Also: The Chameleon Brothers were nuts. Denying Rocko a gym membership because of Heifer wasn't cool.
@misspell: I don't ever buy Peeps because nobody else will eat them, and I can't eat them all, so they get all stale and gross. I have really been wanting to try all these new flavors they keep coming out with, though. Vanilla? Chocolate Mousse? I think I even saw Cheesecake flavor once. Are they any good?
