I guess this explains allot about japanese culture

it's such a beautiful vision. i hope i dream about the octopus tonight.

scott seward (scott seward), Monday, 22 May 2006 04:29 (nineteen years ago)

I suppose it would be mean to link to my Japanese octopus artsyporn find from earlier today, so I'll refrain.

Sid and Marty Krofft meet the Three Stooges with Ren and Stimpy music. Oh, and THOUSANDS OF GALLONS OF HALLUCINOGENS.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 22 May 2006 04:42 (nineteen years ago)

I can't decide what's actually more disturbing, said music or the seemingly random comments from the speakers.

sorry! didn't mean to go off on a funny pets tangent!

i blame youtube!

And to think that I was puzzled by My Neighbor Totoro. Just remember, the US boasts the Teletubbies. Not to mention the spectre of Sid and Marty Krofft's Supershow. I spent my entire childhood watching Land of the Lost and I'm still paying for it with a warped personality and an irrational fear of dinosaurs.

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Monday, 22 May 2006 12:50 (nineteen years ago)

Just remember, the US UK boasts the Teletubbies

right?

sleep (sleep), Monday, 22 May 2006 12:58 (nineteen years ago)

The Western World eats the Teletubbies.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:04 (nineteen years ago)

True confession: I fear the Teletubbies, too, so I don't know if they are US or UK-produced. I never let my kids watch them because they are scary! (Scary, but not gay. Reverend Falwell's phobias are crazier than mine. And that's saying something!)

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

Your kids will grow up isolated and sheltered and when they first meet a Teletubby they will snap. Now don't you feel like a bad mom.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:09 (nineteen years ago)

Who's to say that hasn't happened already? That is just the beginning of my bad-mom-ness... The only things my kids are protected from is Teletubbies and Japanese cartoons!

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:11 (nineteen years ago)

THE PATHWAY TO SIN RIGHT THERE.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:12 (nineteen years ago)

Amen.

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Monday, 22 May 2006 13:14 (nineteen years ago)

when i watch these i think Benny Hill

Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 22 May 2006 16:09 (nineteen years ago)

I have that 5 Minutes To Midnight DVD... It's awe inspiring.

LOL Thomas (Chris Barrus), Monday, 22 May 2006 22:11 (nineteen years ago)

I've been trying to figure out how to make some of these costumes for Halloween for several years now. I think they would be too hot tho.

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 22 May 2006 22:12 (nineteen years ago)

the swordfighting one!

Allyzay Rofflesbot (allyzay), Monday, 22 May 2006 22:23 (nineteen years ago)

I like the one where Takora appears to get drunk and then vomits.

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 22 May 2006 22:30 (nineteen years ago)

Teletubbies have nothing on Boobah:

Gimme Gimme Octopus is pretty great, too, in a similar vein.

Deric W. Haircare (Deric W. Haircare), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 00:49 (nineteen years ago)

boobah is an even better show to watch when youre coming down

jinx hijinks (sanskrit), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 01:46 (nineteen years ago)

i just tried to explain "Gimme Gimme Octopus" to a friend. Words, literally, can never do it justice.

aimurchie (aimurchie), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 02:24 (nineteen years ago)

"It's an octopus and a peanut that looks like a butternut squash and they're in love with a walrus, I think, I don't know, the octopus gets knocked out and the peanut revives him. It's Japanese, but not animated."
Friend politely says he is making tacos and I can call him back later.
