Don't you think Geordi and Data were always close? Geordi always confused me since he was the engineer on the Federation's flagship and he was the only TNG
character to never get any! (Hell, even Data and Picard got some)

A couple of years ago I read a book called "Media Virus," which argued pretty persuasively that Nickelodeon dumped Ren & Stimpy because John Kricfalusi, the show's creator, insisted on working in so many gay references.
The book described one episode where Ren's twin brother Sven came to visit while Ren was away. Sven and Stimpy wind up "playing circus" in the closet (get it?) and at one point Sven announces, "I'm a sword swallower!" followed by gulping noises.
When Ren gets home he goes mad with jealousy and kills them both.

That particular episode was never broadcast, obviously.

Don't think that you can, BA. I think the author, Doug Rushikoff, was relying on accounts by people involved in the production. I could be wrong though. You should track down the book--it's hilarious and disturbing.

So, it is okay to say fudge-packers, or is it only okay in the sense that it is okay for black people to use the N-word?
Help me out here, because above all I disparately want to be PC.

It would be okay for me to say it, because I'm a homo. HOWEVER - being a neocon disqualifies me. So it's not okay for me to say it, which is why I did

Dear BA Advisor,
Some friends just came back from Phoenix and brought me a gift of some fudge. I thought they were being nice. Now, after visiting your site I'm not sure -- maybe this "gift of sweetness" was a veiled insult, or a taunt. They even told me how to pack it so it would last.
What should I do?

I have it on good authority that the Keebler Elves are fudgepackers as well.

You know, when I was growing up I always wondered about Fred in Scooby Doo. All those episodes over the years, and he never once tried to put a move on Daphne.
Come to think about it, I kinda wondered what was up between Daphne and Velma, too...

B-b-b-but Spongebob has a girlfriend! OK, they have never kissed because she needs a helmet to breathe, but they have spent the night together!

Just wanted to share this bit of human sensitivity from a blog, "Saintly Salmagundi",by a priest,Fr. Bryce Sibley: "Today is the commemoration of St. Peter Damian, so I decided to talk about his famous "Book of Gomorrah" at morning mass. However, there were quite a number of impressionable ears there, so instead of using the words "sodomites" (the phrase St. Peter Damian preferred) or "homosexuals" I had to use the word "Tinky Winkies." I learned about using this euphamism from Mr. Rod Dreher when we were discussing the clerical scandal of 2002 in front of his then three year-old child." Can you imagine the sermon? It must have been hilarious. "Scripture, my dear brethren, clearly condemns Tinky Winkies.." LOL! (If only the Rev had had the benefit of BA, he could have said "Fudgepackers"!)

I've always wanted a red handbag like that. And a purple triangle on my head too.

At first I saw the penguin and forgot about that story. I figured it was going to be Linus Torvalds (creator of the Linux operating system).

Add Lenny the gay shark(vegetarian in kid movie parlance) from Shark Tale to this list. You got his father, Robert Deniro, saying "I've heard things about you, Lenny". Lenny says he is "different" than all the other sharks. Later someone says that if Lenny wants to "dress like a dolphin" that it's OK. That makes him as gay as Mr. Smithers.

Jinnderella, yes I have seen it! But he isn't on screen long enough. I just fast forward through "Pirates of the Carribean" with all the scenes he is in (which is most thankfully.) He is just too hot. Too bad he is a loon in real life, but thats ok. I just want to look anyway.
