Dunno, you're pretty much the only one coming off like the whiny bitch ex mod here... and you ARE one of the ONLY TWO that got FIRED.
But enough, keep it out of this thread (AND the chat). We can continue this in the DUMP after hours - unless you want to keep whining here...

Hey, friends and neighbors, I know this is retro and all that, but still...

Ok. Grate!
NOW can we talk about Jim Cummings & Disney cartoons?
Like I said, Talespin! What a fuckin' kickass toon! And Jim as Don Carnage was something to hear.
Cheers!
As you can tell, I'm running out of subjects to derail this thread from its derailment YET AGAIN.
And has anybody thanked me for my efforts? NO!
Thank heavens for the Fryster & his cold ones, else I'd be dead from exhaustion by now.
Cheers!
It's a little difficult to enjoy the party... the previous residents didn't pump the septic tank before vacating. So every time someone flushes the shit backs up and over flows.
Probably time to dump it, close it and let the OCD fight squad take it elsewhere... This thing isn't going to self-correct. Either put an end to it or remove the players from the field.
We've all seen what complacency in this fight has resulted in... do we really need more?

Warner Brothers cartoons, dude. Chuck Jones was a genius, and Carl Stalling was the original Frank Zappa. Fer fuck's sake, Alex Lifeson stole the following riff for use in a Rush instrumental...Ok. Grate!

The best ones were the Roadrunner/Coyote ones. ACME Batsuit for the win!
ANY Chuck Jones Looney Tunes rules. Best era of them all, IMO.
Chef between cartoons, movie quotes and kick ass movies you know your shit
fuck your fucking framing
Fred Quimby era Tom & jerry ain't to shabby .
Chuck Jones did some awesome Tom & Jerry episodes, too!
Well, if you prefer to discuss the cartoons that EVERYONE knows about & about which EVERYTHING has been written & dissected, FINE!
I'll go sulk in the corner.
Cheers!
We'll get to "Felix the Cat" later, Ima.... patience...
are you saying here at the army we can go over and over and over the same old shit ... what, in this thread with my reputation (fast show)Well, if you prefer to discuss the cartoons that EVERYONE knows about & about which EVERYTHING has been written & dissected, FINE!
I'll go sulk in the corner.
Cheers!
No, no, you kids have fun with your fancy, wacky Tex Avery cartoons.
Don't mind me. After all, why discuss Sartre when you have Stephen King?
Peasants.
Cheers!
My favourite toon is in this video

Now, THIS is one of the best new toons out there. I understand they're working on a deal for US networks. I fucking love this show.
Jimmy Falcone and his family are in the Witness Protection Program, and have been relocated to Regina, Saskatchewan. It's fookin hilarious!

Since when is maintaining a modicum of unbiased decency a bad thing? A moderator is just what the title implies: Not looking down one's nose at people one happens to disagree with. And fuck, I'm not even a moderator when it comes down to it. I pretty much park the cars around here, getting rid of the spambots not picked up by the board's internal software while trying not to spill my drink all over the keyboard.Feel free to straddle a fence post, Craig.......
I could care less about content, let alone intent in some goofball's postings. As long as it doesn't get the site into any legal hot water, who cares?
Yet all of this "he said/she said" sniping is really, really starting to wear thin. It is no longer about simple, entertaining gamesmanship, rather it has turned into a bunch of morose, sorrow-filled pity-party hogwash. At times, I feel like I'm stuck on a city bus, caught between two warring factions of homeless people debating whether the sky is blue or somewhat grey.
So yeah, I tend to straddle the fence. Occasionally, I actually open up my yap with some commentary on the whole weary scene, yet I'm far more content with attempting to derail the festivities with some pop-culture nonsense or video clips. You see, believe it or not, I really think this is all a big joke and beneath any merit of effort, let alone thought.
That's how I deal with the situation as it stands. You and some other folks around here are more than welcome to have at it with your own approaches. Ultimately, for me, it's a diversion from patrons, work-related responsibility and kills the time between smoke breaks.
Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

Well thanks, Craig. I'll roll one in your honour as soon as I get the laundry in the dryer.
The classics never die!!Hey, friends and neighbors, I know this is retro and all that, but still...
We're all about "retro" up in this joint nowadays!! Look at all the people who have come back. (and who may shortly leave if all the bullshit fighting doesn't stop)
Fuck...we're even calling for the return of SAVICKI....so let's go FULL RETRO!!!
(Not to be confused with "full retard." You should never go full retard. Just ask Sean Penn...2001..."I Am Sam"...went full retard, and went home empty-handed.)

Here ya go Imapus...
Stay Frosty!
Grate, now chefcraig is steering this thread back into the fight.
You know, this whole ordeal could've cost me my sanity, if I had any left.
As it is, I go from early days completely psycho Woody Woodpecker to Bugs Bunny like a fuckin' broken pendulum.
I don't think I may be able to cope anymore.
Now, who needs a shave?
Cheers!
All of which is why you got landed with the job.
I love me some Foghorn Leghorn!
As a fan of both I really should have known this but didn't.
"La Villa Strangiato"
Alex Lifeson unconsciously stole from Raymond Scott's song, "Powerhouse", likely because it burned into his memory from watching cartoons as a child.
From the FAQ on the raymondscott.com website:
Q: Did the rock band RUSH get sued and have to pay royalties for their unauthorized use of Raymond Scott's ''Powerhouse'' in their 1978 recording ''La Villa.Strangiato''?
A: By the time Raymond Scott's publisher notified the band's management of the infringement, the statute of limitations had expired on the challenge.
But Rush's management, out of deference to Mr. and Mrs. Scott (Raymond was still alive at that point), offered a one-time "penance" payment, feeling it was the ethical thing to do. All involved were happy with the resolution, and Rush has no further financial obligations. Under the settlement, they were not required to accord RS partial songwriting credit on the.piece.
Ya know what? You are correct. I was name-checked and should have simply ignored it. My mistake, and it won't happen again.
Well, if it's any help, Flappo and I are burying the hatchet... (chat) apology accepted.
thx.
i'm as bored with all this infighting as anyone
Here. This should help. Pass it around.
J, flaps, you guys rock!
I've got one more thing to say on this matter and then I'm done.
If there's anybody here who is a member at the Island Of Misfit Toys - today is the day to knock it off. This has gone on long enough and has dragged all over how many sites now? We gots to move on, people.
I know there are people on both sides of this who were wronged or felt wronged. And I know a lot of people have had axes to grind. Some understandably so. But come on, let's all just sit back for a minute, sneak a beer while the old lady ain't lookin', and chill the fuck out.
I have a lot of friends here. Some of my best friends are here and at the Island. I lost some friends here over this shit. But it's time to move on and just get back to having fun. Everybody needs to keep one thing in mind - these are just message boards. It's the fucking internet. It's supposed to be fun and entertaining. A place to just hang out and shoot the shit and sometimes, yeah, slap each other around. But this shit has gone waaaayyy the fuck over the line. We have been way off the reservation with this stuff. Time to let it go.
Sesh, I just want to say again that I wish you the best of luck and that goes to the Staff here too. I know what it's like trying to run a ship full of pirates - and it ain't easy
American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
Flappo & JHale, sittin' in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!
Faaaaaaaaaaags!
Cheers!
no, we're letting it go
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!
the kangaroo/mouse in the lighthouse cartoon is my fave
I have multiple locations in other solar systems. I'm the richest being in the Universe.

Hey, leave your fantasy life out of it - it's not that kinda party!
Cheers!
