halloween supplemental

do you know what really hacks me off, like really badly? people who don't like herbert the pervert, the old man pedophile character on family guy. its your right not to like him, but i don't want to be breathing the same air as you people who are offended by that character. holy jesus christ. let me quote some dork from the internet, dear god gimme the strength:

I didn't find OB1 being a child molester terribly humurous. As I said I don't like that character to begin with. I don't have many lines, but that is one of those lines.

and someone rebutting him later:

The character works fine for me because he seems so, well, impotent. He's too pathetic to be threatening.

so first off, i can't imagine a better proof of god's existence and benevolence, that family guy managed to do this to the above poster. they took the pedophile this guy is all creeped by, and cast him as the guy's favorite character in their star wars episode. that is fucking awesome.

second off, why does the pedophile character have to be impotent for him to be ok? i think it would be funnier if he was a little more able. but then that illustrates the comedy chasm that forms between me and the first poster. as does this other comment, which is where i just stop listening to people:

Hahahah, that is purely me being tired of McFarlane's over playing of jokes. It would have been funny but he always takes things 5 or 6 seconds to far. the scraping his knee scene is a prime example of that. A funny scene for the first 4 seconds, 10 seconds later...

for the record, peter scraping his knee is pure genius based on the timing alone. the timing (and the fact that he captured every memory ive ever had of scraping my knee, captured that experience in a vital way) fucking makes the joke. it WAS a funny scene for the first 4 seconds, 10 seconds later? STILL FUCKING FUNNY. FUNNIER.

i pray to god this guy doesn't have a neilsen box. although that would explain a lot of things.

you either get this shit or you don't, and if you don't, i really don't have time for you.
