I got in pretty late as a fan of “The Simpsons.” Like a lot of people, I grew up watching reruns, somewhat enjoying them, but mainly just watching them because they led into the “Family Guy” reruns on Fox. That was my young brain. I was way too young for the golden age of Simpsons and not quite at the point of the not-so-great modern Simpsons. It was just a somewhat entertaining show for my elementary school brain. It wasn't until my late teens that I discovered peak, golden age Simpsons. A fri…

Supernanny is a TV show about children who will not eat their dinner. Well, at least that's one of the main behavior issues the titular Supernanny Jo deals with when going into the homes of American families. I loved watching Supernanny as a kid. Much like Wife Swap and Maury I was obsessed with watching families on TV that were far more dysfunctional than mine could ever be. I looked at that 8-year-old on Supernanny with contempt, thinking, “I'm eight too, and I would never act like this. That…

There are so many elements that make Rick and Morty the absolute smash hit show that it has always been. It’s humor is balls to the walls insane and it’s incredibly unique when you compare it to other shows in the adult animation genre.

The 90s and 2000s ushered in a golden age for adult cartoons on TV. With legendary shows like The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy coming onto the scene, television audiences learned that cartoons weren't just for kids or 1970s adult movie theater audiences. These shows found fans with people of so many different demographics and pushed the boundaries of what cartoons could be. As the 2010s rolled in, Rick and Morty showed that the future of adult cartoons wasn't about repeating the success…

Is that one even technically a meme??

Well, here we are. We've finally entered that ambiguous period of time in between summer and fall: after Labor Day and before September 21st , the official First Day of Fall TM . If your brain is still school-pilled, you're likely thinking that summer is definitely over by this point. However, if you're a Gregorian calendar stan and a lifelong intellectual, you're still basking in the glory of the hottest and most gorgeous season. You aren't bound to the laws and standards of the educational sy…

As a born and bred South Park fan, I was always skeptical about the humor of Seth MacFarlane's hit show Family Guy . From my purview, it seemed like a more inane version of my favorite adult animated sitcom. My first positive experience with the show was in college when my friends and I would watch the Family Guy-themed parody song “ FAMILY GUY PARTY ROCK ALBUM! ” The song went a little something like, "party rockers in the hou se tonight!!! peter griffin just had a GOOd tIME! nobody care about…

I don't know if this is said enough, so I'm just going to flat out say it; Being a programmer is a huge accomplishment. Sure, the general population praises those pursuing STEM fields during their high school and college years, but what about after they manifest their dreams of becoming programmers? Programmers and IT specialists work long, hard hours that it's difficult for the normies of the world to understand. You have to learn complex coding languages, stop and start over, all while never…

Have you ever lied on your resume, saying you were “proficient in Excel?” I have a theory that at least 55% of people who put “proficient in Excel” on their resumes are bold-face liars. Because what is proficiency, really? Proficiency is a journey, not a destination! Do we all just wake up one day and realize that we've crossed the threshold of proficiency

Shitposters, rejoice. We've got another highly exploitable and highly deep fry-able meme format to play around with - and it weirdly, brilliantly, and ironically features Peter Griffin of Family Guy and Cloud Strife of FFVII fame. While it may seem like an odd pairing of animated characters, the format just works. In the image, Cloud is standing over a clearly ailing Peter Griffin, who seems to be unconscious and relying on oxygen. Its creator, Bodko, posted the amusing depiction to Twitter in…

Giggity giggity

I'm sorry.
