Cultural references and innuenedo in Rocko's Modern Life

[Idioteque]

I'm 17 years old, so I grew up on the old Nicktoons including Rocko's Modern Life. I never really noticed all of the dirty stuff they snuck in so my parents would enjoy the show too.

Just a few examples...
"Rocko and the guys frequented a restaurant called "Chokey Chicken" ( "choking the chicken" is a slang term for masturbation), however the name of the restaurant was later changed to "Chewy Chicken".

Rocko's favorite hobby was "jacking" ( as "jackhammering" is often shortened to). During one episode, Rocko and Heffer walk past a demonstration pit for jackhammers which reads, "Jack all you want." (in that same episode, there was a high-tech, three-headed jackhammer called, "Sir Jack-A-Lot").

Rocko and the guys played a game called "Spank the Monkey", where there was a monkey on the table between them and they all are holding paddles before Mr. Bighead enters the room and asks them to go bowling."

1. Dude I loved that show

My digital cable has a nicktoons channel and I am able to watch it still. Don't forget the many times Rocko fell in to Hippo Lady's clevage. Man that was a great show. We had some great shows in the mid 90's. My brother and I talked about that, he's 15 and I am 18 and it seemed like I was all alone of that opinion but there are a lot of people who agree with that. Chokey Chicken just classic.
