I changed the Hivemind title to make Kemrain happy.

Ok.. You may call yourself a fan. Either that or your google fu is strong!

- Kemrain the Impressed.

Paraphrasing:

"Yeah. I like your cup. 'Life's a beach and then you die' Quite clever. But there may be others that work here that might take offense to it."

"Who? Who else works here?"

" YOU! THAT'S WHO WORKS HERE!"

There are parts of the show I like. I don't care for the artwork or voice work.

It isn't about 'Dads are morons' as much as 'this dad's a moron,' Cal. No reason to be offended. Stan, Peter, and Homer are all freaks of nature, but they aren't the only fathers around.

Then again, not watching them because you don't enjoy them is 100% reasonable.

- Kermain the Fan.

Indeed, and I'm not offended by the posts, in the least! Sorry if I gave that impression.

What offends me is the way popular media depicts parents (and the majority of the time it's just the dad) as incompetent boobs. You see this in commercials more than the shows, but lots of sitcoms use this schtick, as well. I don't want this turn into a debate on the merits of various tv shows, but I just avoid any of them that depict one or more parents as dimwitted dolts. I don't allow my son to watch them, either.

Also please note this is merely my opinion, and is in no way intended to say you or anyone else should get on the same bandwagon with me. It's just the way I look at things. It works for me. YMMV.

Indeed. And now it seems the Hivemind is back on track!

Hooray!

I may have thought it... At least I had the decency not to say it...

You don't count. You can just look down.

Indeed! I noticed the other day in the mirror that I'm getting a nice rounded shape. I'm fairly thrilled. But don't think that these two are enough! Two are never enough! They're like potato chips, only double.

Heh...two is plenty, thank you. Beyond that, and it gets weird.

Yeah. Just look at that chick in Total Recall.
