Coming to Terms With the Rape of My Childhood

                                        


   
       I think at some point everyone comes to the realization that most of the things from their childhood that they hold to be sacred have been largely forgotten and/or molested or shit on. Except for the people who lack the cognitive function to formulate such thoughts, such as people who believe in 9/11 conspiracies.




       But for the rest of us, the experience can be disillusioning. And cultural amnesia is worse now than ever. If it happened more than five minutes ago you are an asshole for even mentioning it. They already have a dubstep remix for that shit, and it's so much better that it will make you shit yourself.




Motherfucking Dubstep.




       And so naturally, if it happened more than a decade ago it's fucking ancient, and you are an absolute turd of a human for so much as thinking about it, unless it happens to be some random shitty band or fashion statement, such as EMF or girls pulling their shorts up above their navels, making their asses appear to be three feet long. If anyone reading this does that, you look fucking ridiculous. That went out of vogue 25 years ago for a reason. And they never remember the good bands, such as Bell Biv DeVoe, or the good fashion statements, such as Z. Cavarricis.


The one exception to my "not above the navel" rule.
     

       Nowadays it seems like practically all of culture is born and pronounced dead on the internet in such rapid succession that we hardly have the chance to process what the fuck it is. For example, the troubled young man below has become considerably famous in recent months, and no one really knows what the fuck is the deal with him, except that he is a member of the Official Fanclub of Wayne Gretzky and Kings Team Aficionados. Being that he is from L.A., I assume this is legitimate.




       And culture isn't slowing down anytime soon. The internet is the great equalizer and everyone who uses it now has an equal opportunity to become famous, even someone as ugly as yourself, and more and more people are using the internet every day. They are running out of IP addresses for fuck's sake. Well I for one plan on becoming famous, and that is the primary reason for this blog. Don't get it twisted by thinking that I just genuinely enjoy entertaining you fuckers. But that is why net neutrality is so important, and I absolutely think it's a very good thing, for all of us to have the same shot at the big time, but I still long for the simpler times when things were more slowed down and in neater compartments, and for those old familiar cultural symbols I cherish, but the problem is that the internet has thoroughly defiled them all.









       The youth of today are so thoroughly desensitized and full of hipster ennui that they have even resorted to soiling the good names of the characters from Sesame Street. They have painted the Count as a whoremonger and deviant, have transformed the cookie monster from a mere cookie enthusiast into a terminal phase food addict, have implied an incongruous sexual relationship between Bert and Ernie, and, perhaps worst of all, have projected their annoying insouciance onto all of them. How dare you do that to my defenseless childhood friends?






       Suffice it to say they have taken the characters of Sesame Street and they have savagely raped them in their fuzzy shit pipes. And I am none too pleased about it. Go fuck yourself, Tumblr.




       Shameful how you donkey punch the good name of Donatello and just shove it up his turtle tailpipe like that.




       No he fucking didn't. He loved physical fitness and Jeet Kune Do, and you are raping his corpse.




       How dare you sit there and pinch out a steamy loaf on the good name of Jazzercise?




This isn't from my childhood but it's still fucked up.




No, it's not related, and yes, I still mad.





       For fuck's sake, take your dick out of Marty. He's got enough bullshit as it is. I'm going to leave you all with this tale of disillusionment. I have no idea which anonymous user of the internet wrote it, and I am using it without his or her permission. Sort of like you didn't ask for permission to go balls deep into my childhood's virgin asshole.




       Well it might be a little longer than usual before I post again, because I need to find a job. No, I don't get paid millions of dollars for this. I agree, it's fucking bullshit. But my absence doesn't mean that I love you any less. Your kiss is still on my list of the best things in life. And so are nachos.

  2. Dude, while you're out job hunting, please remember this little piece of advice: never trust a big butt and a smile. Seriously. It will save you so much trouble.

  3. Very entertaining read. You should be paid for this stuff.

  4. My experience is that neither of those things are very trustworthy, and that combined they form a molotov cocktail of malice and deceit.

  15. Nice post. Made me think about my ruined childhood.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Oh good, because we don't read you to be entertained either. We just read this blog so that we are around when you become famous. It's like keeping that creepy photographer friend around because suddenly he knows a lot of people. Or is that just me?

    This was a good post.

    @Drake, except possibly Gargamel, though his record isn't good.
    @Timmy, I know, it's horseshit.
    @phairhead, only for occasions that call for dressy-casual attire.
    @Not who I will be, that's putting it lightly
    @MRanthrope, see the Velveeta commercial. They're "crumbelievable."
    @twelvedaysold, I would pretend I didn't know you.
    @Mrs. Pickle, it's a very humorous topic.
    @Steve Bailey, it's going to sound shitty now.
    @Rafa, "finding a job" is a euphemism for bangin and slangin

  21. I refuse to revisit anything I liked from my childhood. Because I know the nostalgia doesn't reflect the actual value. Plus my younger self was kind of a dumbass

    ReplyDelete
  22. Mine wore Z. Cavarricis. So yeah, he was awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Funny stuff!

    You bring up some very valid points here which I would like to dissect in some detail but there is a dachshund spinning on a turn-table.

  26. DAMN IT. I can never think of anything better to say than "you're HILARIOUS and in a parallel universe, you're my age and we're married."

    All those pictures are fantastic. Did you make them?

    My mom does the pants-above-naval thing. Needless to say, I avoid outdoor excursions with her whenever possible.

    P.S I complimented you on my blog. Be flattered.

  30. Missed your question, Lemons. No, I don't make most of the pictures you see on my blog. They are passed down through an international network of nerds.

    following you!

  50. I completely agree about the raping of our childhood culture (those of us who grew up in the late 70s and 80s). It's been going on with the movies from our childhood for a while now.

    Karate Kid, Footloose (I don't know if that should have been made in the 1st place), The Thing, Total Recall (w/ nasty-man Collin Farrell), Evil Dead, Clash of the Titans, Piranha, Conan, Fright Night, Red Dawn, They Live, Robo Cop,....

    and the worst is the the "new" Howling, which looks like a Twilight-inspired, piece of tripe.

    Now they're Disney-fying John Carter of Mars, which isn't related to our childhoods but still sucks.

    ReplyDelete
  51. That brings up old memories.

    ReplyDelete
  52. this post reminds me so much of a cracked article

    ReplyDelete
  53. The picture of Earl Sweatshirt was hilarious.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I completely agree although I don't really like the idea of being called "ugly" and a "fucker" :( but those are some valid points you've raised up in this post.

    But there's a lot of generalization going on here and that's never good for one's mental health.

    Kids these days are growing up much faster because of the easy access to information provided by the internet revolution (both physically and mentally). And although there's some good things to that, there's a lot more bad. =_=

    Even five year olds have facebook now. My 11 year old niece showed me her iPhone 4 the other day and called my Nokia a "crap phone".

    I love Bruce Lee by the way. :D

  55. Where the hell is the follow button?!

  60. I sense satire, lol, good blog man.
    My childhood was great minus first 6 years.
    Looking forward to your next post!

    Cheers,
    logic

    ReplyDelete
  61. Great post, man.
    You hit the nail on the head when you called me "ugly", but then again beauty is in the eye etc...

    I don't really hold much value in the things that pop culture provided for me in my childhood. I guess I spent way too much time playing outside. That's what we did instead of watch t.v.

    Wait, I lie. I remember the "hey you guys" from the electric company and my brother freaking out when I could do the voice of glomer from the punky brewster cartoon(which is now an altered form of meatwad).

    Although others tend to take what we once held in high regard and stick it straight in the mud, I just view it with pity that the poor souls cannot come up with interesting original content.

    You must be paid for this. I'd give you a dollar, and I just have five of them.

    ReplyDelete
  62. @Sacred Bob, if trolling, you are a pretty cool guy. If serious, I'm afraid you are retarded, and I will thank you to google Occam's Razor on your way off of the internets forever.

    ReplyDelete
  63. @Ingonyama, there are rules against me saying where I find these things of which you speak.
    @Rich, it's pretty fucking bad. Probably should have included that.
    @Suniverse, Elmo is a total whore, that's how he gets ahead. Put in a good word for me. Tell them about my blog and all the comical images I post.
    @breakingLogic, your Spidey senses do not betray you.
    @Shockgrubz, thanks, but I'm talking about Pusha-T money

    ReplyDelete
  64. Don't get a job. It's vastly overrated. If you run a zillion text and popup ads, you will make a million dollars in one year and then you can sit back and just watch the Internet generate income for you.

    Nice point to the post, BTW. I sometimes worry if I make reference to the 90s people will think I am over 30, which I am but no matter what anybody says it's still not cool to be.

    don't be gone too long.

  65. hahahah nice job man!! LOL

  67. Interesting viewpoint but you haven't looked at the good side however small and insignificant it may seem to you. The internet has allowed everyone and every culture to be more evolved and more informative although most who surf the internet do not understand it's purpose and statue sometimes therefore it is our job to be the bigger person and stop saying how shit the internet is and try to use it as best to our capabilities so the new generations will not be so ignorant and fucked up.

  68. Good written but way too many pictures. Destroys the flow.

    I'd follow but can't seem to find a follow button? Someone get back to me for that please.

  70. It's a sad day when we realise that everything we used to like is now shit and people think you're shit for not being a hipster and being with the times.

  76. Well now, you have a great blog there! O_o
    Following and supporting! :)
    And reading previous articles! :)

    ReplyDelete
  77. Thanks for following, and although I enjoyed this post, I can't help but WANT to tell you, (because I'm an honest person, and I don't give a shit about readership and syndication) "who the fuck cares?"

    Yeah call it insouciance if you will, but if this post is anywhere near sincere, then it's half your fault. My parents always chastised me for letting others provoke me into negativity. Well I'll chastise you young man, and you're NOT gonna like it (just kidding!)

    Either way, good luck on your journey to become famous. I hope it works out. I really do. Although I kinda wish it doesn't that way you don't have an excuse to sound like a passive aggressive Holden Caulfield.

  86. That is just blasphemy to rape The Never Ending Story. You're frigging hilarious!

    ReplyDelete
  87. I didn't read all the comments. You have about 5 trillion, and I'm supremely lazy, so if this is a rehash, consider it a life lesson on the habits of middle aged women who have lost all ability to give a shit.
    The pants; OMFG, I hate them. Hated them as a kid, hate them now. whenever I see some wench in boob high pants I want to kick her in the teeth.
    Childhood memories; Don't get me started. Someone obviously needed something to do because they had no real life, or ability to change themselves. Plus, it's my understanding that Hester Prynne was already branded, dead, and buried, so Cookie monster was the obvious alternative.

  88. @Tony, not sure. I wouldn't get him a can of whup-ass, because he probably already has a million of those.
    @Sub-Radar-Mike, glad you recognized him, and hopefully caught my awesome acronym joke.

  97. I agree with you totally about despising the way people fuck with the past. Leave it alone. Jesus. Sesame Street is what I was practically raised on, and I don't like people making snide comments about Bert & Ernie. Can't two fuzzy guys just be friends? Yes, they can.

    I also don't like when people put lame shit under truly cute pictures of animals. They're cute as they are, people, don't you get it??
