I don't get it... - 06-18-03

How come animals in cartoons can be "people" but have pets that are pets? Example: Mickey Mouse and his pet dog Pluto. Goffy's a dog just like Pluto, but Goffy's got a house and can drive a car and have a job. And Pluto is just a regular dog. What the Fuck? Or Stewart Little: He's a mouse. He was adopted by a family as a "son" and has a canary as a girlfriend, and they can talk to him and he has a bedroom, yadda yadda... and they (him included) have a PET CAT that is just a plain old cat. I just don't get it.....

Its evolution baby!

As soon as you stand up straight you`re no longer a animal...in the cartoon world at least.


Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.

Darkness squeezes, Satan`s platypus rises tonight! Bork, bork, bork!

well i'll put it to you this way. its only a cartoon for the kids. the cartoons can be just as fucked as us people can. cause in cartoons anything can happen. like how anything can happen through cyberspace. but just with words. you forgot about donald duck. i mean he is a fucking duck. but they make him walk and talk.

Why does Donald Duck put a towel around his waist when he gets out of the bath?

He never wears pants anyway...

gotta say when that stuart little film came out i thought it was the weirdest idea for a film i'd ever seen. a mouse adopted as a son? freaky jeebus.

hmmm, no, maybe not quite the weirdest, i think that grinch thingy takes that prize. that really is creepy.


I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.

I'm on this forum way too much. Only during the day though. If I wasn't here, it'd just be another site, so I might as well stick here.
