1. And your point is...?

What? That if you don't like something, then nobody else may like it, either? That's bullshit!

2. No, just announcing a preference or lack thereof
I just want to know who else doesn't like it.

5. whack away
I don't hate Schoolhouse Rock so much as the tired nostalgia of my generation behind it. Christ! We sound as whiny as the yuppies do when they wax tearful about the 60's.

11. that one is classic
And Bart's line that we "need another Vietnam to thin out their ranks" when referring to whiny X (my generation, btw) nostalgia.

14. Bart was right; we have our mini-Vietnam right now.
I guess shrubbie wanted to thin out the ranks of the whiny Gen-X-ers who weren't likely to vote for him in '04 anyway.

16. The problem is that the age group facing this thinning is too young
to have SHR memories of the first order. I was born in 1978 and only remember a little bit of SHR, and part of this is because my brother is 2 years older and chose what we would watch. Kids born in 1982 were not raised on SHR, and they are the ones who will die.

23. Shows how little you know about "SHR"

"Schoolhouse Rock" was the name of the series. None of the songs had the word "schoolhouse" in the lyrics!
