As children's shows characters go, Caillou was always an easy one to make fun of. The bald Canadian named Caillou was pretty much asking for it. This weekend, the internet was presented with a reason to think twice before mocking the cartoon lad. Twitter user @NatalieZiesmer was going down a google hole when she discovered that the veritable toddler is allegedy 5'11". That's taller than most of the dudes on Tinder. News of Caillou's hulking height quickly went viral, despite it becoming very clear that this info is definitely from a user-edited wiki. Unfortunately, that knowledge won't be able to expel the towering toddler from our nightmares.
It's already been a couple weeks since the PBS show 'Arthur' caused major ~controversy~ with an episode featuring a gay wedding. The wedding, which takes place in the show's premiere, features Arthur's teacher, Mr. Ratburn, marrying a male aardvark. Many conservatives were displeased, and Alabama Public Television straight up refused to air the episode. An article regarding the Alabama decision referred to the rodent nuptials as a "gay rat wedding," inspiring tons of Twitter memes. Weeks later, the joke's strength has grown. Here are some of our favorite iterations of the meme - but we're willing to bet we'll see more.
We might be going to hell for making innocent kids' shows into dank memes, but at least we get some humor out of it all? In all seriousness though, these are fine to share with your family and friends because we really don't want to actually ruin your childhood!
Anyway, please enjoy these memes, know as "You Dare Oppose Me Mortal!"
Arthur was truly a great kids' TV show, and some of us are kind of embarrassed to admit that we watched it until we were way older than is socially acceptable. But really, what was there not to love about the show? It taught us lots of good wholesome morals that we've all carried into adulthood!
We came back from that long USA weekend to discover something very unexpected. Against all odss, those Slaps Roof Of Car memes are still relevant. They've become pretty self-aware and very, very silly. Here are a few of the latest iterations that we think will muster a chuckle.
