What Do Y'all Think?


Okay, I know there are quite a few regular lurkers who drop by and visit Hell nearly every day (love me some SiteMeter). Thank you so much for your support. Even if you don't contribute to the discussion, thereby leaving me feeling like I'm out here talking to myself like your regular psycho on the street, it's nice to know I have stalkers. Hell is just the place for stalkers and I'm happier'n a three-peckered billy goat to have you.

Yesterday, I made a comment about wanting to find a certain video (Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat) to make my condemned cartoon carnival complete. Well, I've had a couple of people contact me directly via email asking about the videos I post from time to time and that got me thinking -- and we all know how dangerous it can be when wicked goddamn smart wimmin start thinking....we start getting those pesky ideas and stuff.

A little backstory: Back in the early 1970's when I was but a wee tater-totlet of a demon in the suburbs of Fort Worth, there was a TV show that came on every afternoon between my lunchtime and naptime from 12:30-1:00, called "Cartoon Carnival." Programming consisted mostly of old Merrie Melodies and Warner Brothers cartoons with a little Tex Avery thrown in the mix. It was my favorite show besides Slam Bang Theatre, which came on at what I best remember as pre-dark-thirty, but that show was an least an hour long and also screened 3 Stooges and Little Rascals shorts.

Like I said, that got me to thinking and I think, being Hell and all, that it would be fun to make a Condemned Cartoon Carnival and include it as a weekly feature on this blog. Maybe on Mondays to give everyone a twisted, perverted, salacious and potentially blasphemous start to your week? I'll even take contributions from you - my possessed minions - and give you a little shoutout's worth of credit for sending it if your submission makes the cut. -Unless of course you'd rather remain anonymous so you don't have to admit that you cavort with the likes of the devil. The inclusion criteria are that the videos have to be funny enough to make me laugh out loud. Bonus points if they're just WRONG and I'm laughing so hard I'm in tears (I'm a tough customer BTW). I don't care if they come from YouTube, GoogleVideo, VideoJug or your crazy Aunt Hattie's attic - just send them and I'll post the funniest ones every week.

Besides me, so far we have a landslide vote of 1 in favor (Thanks, Slick). Spew forth your bile and tell me - what do YOU think?

Well, by God uh...can I say that in Hell?

Natalia, actually you sound like me talking to my dissertation committee. Just a simple yes or no will do.

Slick, you can say god here - provided you are using it in vain.

Natalia said...

Oh no, it's a yes. I meant what do you want us to look for. Duh... I am slow today. Don't mind the drool on my chin.

A good idea. I will begin the search, said she, spewing forth bile and lurking off as only possessed minion does...
