You Want to Feel Ancient?

The Muppets are celebrating an anniversary this year. It's for when Henson first created them. In 1954. That's 70 goddamned years ago! The Muppets are fucking 70 years old! They are now older than Disney was when The Muppet Show premiered (in 1976)! They're also one year older than Disneyland! No foolin'.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm just going to turn into dust.

But wait! It gets worse! This is the 50th anniversary of The Muppet Show! And we're getting a special.

I kinda like being an old wizard.
And I like that things that I like are old.
Look at all the shitty things Muppets outlived.
Hard Copy.
Jerry Springer.
Rush Limbaugh.
The branch Davidians.
The Satanic panic.
Geraldo Rivera being taken seriously as a journalist.
The Real World.
Road Rules.
I could go on...

The Branch Davidians are still around. Just not quite as many of them as there used to be.

Real Star Trek...

The Muppet episode of SNW is going to be glorious, and you're going to beg for forgiveness.

Will still be better than Star Trek: Hallmark Academy

Which is still better than season 1 of TNG.

God, those were the days, weren't they? My heart flutters with nostalgia. Like a butterfly through a sunbeam.

Hey @Steal Your Face

Here's the difference, those episodes you keep bringing up are actually funny. Com badge girl isn't funny, it's stupid and anyone defending this crap are stupid as well. These are Starfleet Cadets, not toddlers.

This is laughable.

I didn't have "'Profit and Lace' was good actually" on my FF bullshit bingo card.

Yes. Quark in drag was the height of hilarity.

I didn't say that.

What's bullshit about it?

Cope.

Cadets then:


Cadets now:

He's a midshipman. So not a cadet.

It's no fucking wonder you "need more angles" to understand shit anyone with a brain got fifteen fucking angles ago.

It could be argued that since they are serving/training on a ship, they can be considered a hybrid cadet/midshipman.

"He stayed at his post, when the trainees ran!!"

Hence, NOT a trainee.

I didn't mean Preston, I meant the current cadets. They could be hybrid.

Not Paladin's point, so why bother arguing it?

Just when I thought your demonstrable ignorance couldn't be any more evident.

This was amazing. It was perfect.
