Acceptance Speech / Cartoon Chronicle

Looks like I made it into OB's Nifty Fifty. This was a huge surprise to me, as I hadn't actually done anything last year. Also, I've never gotten higher than Second Runner-Up during the Otaku Awards. Still, I'd like to give my thanks to God (or whoever is responsible for creating this messed up universe), Shy, and the rest of the Nittee Fittee Committee. "Just because he's Manic. I remember one or two people mentioning before that Manic was one of the members here who sort of flies under the radar, for whatever reason. But, yeah, Manic is cool. His myOtaku is a fun read, he takes great care of the Music, Movies and TV forum, and he seems like a great guy in general. There should be a Manic Appreciation Day." -Shinmaru Damn you, Shinmaru! This means I'll have to keep putting effort into my entries. And after I spent all this time flying under the radar. Oh, and thanks for the compliments. Let's wrap this up with a Cartoon Chronicle. I'll have a This Fortnight in Stupidity in my next entry. Cartoon Chronicles: The Smurfs This show is smurfin' sweet. Meet the Smurfs. They're small, little blue men (and one woman) who live in a tiny village outside of a magical kingdom. They're led by Papa Smurf, and live a life of peace and fun. However, there is a human who lives in a nearby tower named Gargamel, who intends to capture the Smurfs for... um... uh... Why did Gargamel want the Smurfs, again? Every other word they said was "smurf." It was a noun, a verb, and an adjective all in one. You could smurf to the store, smurf a loaf of bread, and do it all in a smurfish way. The Smurf civilization is a strange one. I've heard of Patriarchal societies, but theirs is ridiculous. They have only one female. Okay, so there was also Sasette and Nanny, but Sas was illegal and Nanny had already gone through the change. Actually, Smurfette technically isn't a smurf at all, as Gargamel (somehow) created her to destroy the other smurfs. But then Papa Smurf worked his magic on her (make of that phrase what you will), and she began to frolic with the best of them. Since I'm already knee-deep in sexual references, I might as well say that Smurfette was (no doubt) banging Papa Smurf. She was probably also giving some to Hefty, putting hands on Handy, and braining Brainy. Yeah, I said it. Would I recommend it? Don't let that last paragraph fool you. It's good, quality, family fun. It's a great kid's show filled with magic and wonder. I mean, it was on the air for 9 years. Much Love
