I don’t like it when GC fast-forwards through this commercial:
I think Goob really likes the song too. She clears shelfs happily to its sunny tune.

We are concerned that the predators portrayed by the totally non-predatory insurance company will not receive adequate nutrition.
I know, imagine a world with no problems- they really should have just shown their agents actually paying claims, but then there wouldn’t have been room for the song, just a giant speed-read disclaimer. It is true, we would be meerkat kebabs in this circle of life.
I’ve never seen it. I think they don’t want to sell insurance to Californians.
This is YL’s favorite commercial. She always gets a slightly bittersweet look on her face when it’s on and says, kind of under her breath, “I wish it was really like that.”
I know- I think of Goob’s books with all the animals being best friends and then the reality of it. I rebel!
B has a shirt with a giraffe and lion that says “Best Friends”
of course I am the one that just this morning was advocating for use of “Unicorn” over “Urchin” as the U animal….
also we need to post baby halloween pics. What is the Goob going as? I’m guessing she is Today’s In & Out burger, and you are the companion In & Out Burger of the Past.
But, as you rightly know, we could only pull that costume off with identical twins.
GC’s friend made the AWESOMEST robot costume for their little girl- but ask yourself is it more or less awesome that after the fact she realized that the little one could not put her arms down. I say a stunning commitment to realism!
Children need to learn early to go hard or go home. I say keep those arms raised.
I have difficulty watching The Wonder Pets with Libby due to its extremely unrealistic portrayal of the food chain. “If they save the baby chipmunk, the baby hawk will die of starvation!”
Bank share holders should be the baby hawk and johnny shlub should be Baby Chipmunk, then McArdle would Tivo the shit out of that.
Ha, conservative Wonder Pets. I love it. “A baby chipmunk is in twouble!” “That’s okay, the free market will decide if he gets eaten.”
“A baby chipmunk is in twouble!”
“That’s okay, the free market will decide if he gets eaten.”
you forgot the ending: “now give me your money”
I gave up on the Wonder Pets because of their failed commitment to realism. A baby cow, stuck in a tree? Come. On.
I was already having difficulties accepting the fact that a guinea pig was the titular leader of that motley crew, then being forced to believe that a cow would accept the humiliation of being rescued by a turtle was just too much to bear.
fish from the past:
don’t get me started on Baby Geniuses. if you’re such a genius why are you still wearing a diaper?
Ha, conservative Wonder Pets. I love it. “A baby chipmunk is in twouble!” “That’s okay, the free market will decide if he gets eaten.”
I want a blue laser pointer pen, in twoble!
