There are so many things I wish I could erase from my brain, and that's one of them.

I grew up watching Ren and Stimpy, I think thats why I like them.

Even as a kid, I thought Ren and Stimpy was stupid. I couldn't for the life of me understand why it was so popular.

I'd do it right now, but I...don't know how to remove a redirect. My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic IDW already redirects to My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. I was thinking of some uniformity with The Transformers IDW and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IDW.

If only IDW gave it a different subtitle!

I was just a kid when they were popular, and yeah, I hated them and never thought they were funny.

I grew up watching Ren and Stimpy, when there was nothing good on.

I used to find Ren and Stimpy funny. Then I grew up and just found them asinine.

I never really watched Ren and Stimpy...or Cow and Chicken.

They were just so... bizarre.

Good evening.

Ren and Stimpy was an uncomfortable series. However, that show got me into Cartoon Network and subsequently to the shows like Teen Titans and Megas XLR. Good times, good times.

A worthwhile field of study must help its students understand how the world works.

Cow and Chicken I never really cared for that much. And i typically like surrealism.

I too enjoy the hell out of Adventure Time

Hey, I love bizarre. I am so into bizarre that you would not believe. It's like, really bizarre is kinda cool, OK?

But there's bizarre and then there's just stupid.

I like Adventure Time, after all.

I think for me Ren and Stimpy was just so absurdly stupid and different from everything else that it was fun to watch. Plus my dad really liked it and it was one of the few "quality time" activities I got to do with him. He was always working night shift so I never saw him much.

I remember Cow and Chicken. It was...meh. Good for watching when there's nothing else on.

Ah, I can understand that, Turtlebutter. PBS' Mystery! tends to be my "Quality time" with family. Well, mainly my mom these days since dad's in bed by 9 PM. I try to make an appearance at my folks on Thursdays and Sundays so we can catch it.

Anyway, back to ponies. Vimes ponified

. Which reminds me, I still need to get around to reading the Discworld books.

@Turtle: That's sweet. Me and my dad always bonded over Star Trek and stuff.

In fact, I used to put up with my sister's terrible shows just to spend time with her.

It's when you sit in the family room with the lights off and watch Kurt Russell movies, and your mom yells at you from the kitchen to turn it down or turn a light on and your dad ignores her.

It's a lot of fun.

#284394 Drenius Tue, 18th Sep '12 5:57:24 PM from Northern Virginia

Haha. Condo, you're awesome.

In my case it was watching Noir films or depressing neo-realist studies of human nature and my dad leaving halfway through because he decided he couldn't deal with it after all, while insisting the rest of us keep watching.

Thanks, Dren.

My dad is the person who introduced me to noir and old movies like that. I'm grateful for that.

Plus, he let me watch John Carpenter's The Thing when I was 9.

Yeah, he's pretty cool.

Ah, The Thing. One of the great movies, and the best reason for anyone to learn Norwegian.

Ren and Stimpy is drivel.

I remember watching Ren and Stimpy devotedly as a kid. At an older age, I think it's "okay", definitely funny in places, but revolves a bit too much on just being gross out or nonsensical.

Cow and Chicken is similar (and likely a cash in on Ren and Stimpy), which I also adored as a kid.
