She had her own cartoon for awhile.
When? Musta' been after I stopped watching Saturday morning cartoons....
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
All those Disney princesses are from stories that were written by non-Disney authors, aren't they?
Don't get me wrong; I think that pretty much all of the fairy tales presented -- Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Goddamn Mermaid Who Gives Up Her Voice For A Dude -- are horrible stories that instill patriarchal values into little girls before they have the ability to reason and see that they're bullshit. Feh.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Late 70's, I want to say. Lemme check - it was called "The Perils of Penelope Pitstop". I loved her so much that most of my books had "This book belongs to Aimee Jo Heumann and Penelope Pitstop" written in them because I was her and she was me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Clicking around the site with the Disney princess post I came across this [link]
The comments are going to cause much pain to my head and my desk.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I remember watching that in syndication all throughout the 70s, Aims.

Huh. We got Wacky Races as kids, but not this. (We watched a lot of cartoons in '69.)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Little mermaid was my favorite -- made me sob. However, even the first time I read it I thought the little mermaid was incredibly stupid. Somehow giving everthing up before you even could talk to the guy-- How was anyone supposed to love you if they never talked to you. That's why I cried.

See, and I think that's why The Disney LM makes me spit fire! Because, damn it, IT IS SUPPOSED TO END POORLY AND SERVE TO WARN YOU ABOUT THAT STUFF.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I remember Penelope Pitstop coming on after Wacky Races.
