I’m an adult. I know this. I try to remind myself of this fact every day. I own a house. I drink beer legally. I have to use my arms and my legs to stand up from sitting.
So it’s fitting that at least one of the items in this Awesome Battle contains the word adult…
There is an incredible show on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim that no one but my friend, Chris, and I watch.
It’s entitled Delocated, and here’s a sample:
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Sure, I should have set up the video, but I like to throw people in the deep end, let them get their feet wet and water in their lungs, you know. Essentially, it’s a fake reality (?) show about a family in the witness protection program, and it’s so absurd I absolutely love it. Season 2 premieres August 22, and I can’t believe I missed it during its initial run.
This second item… I’m not too proud about my excitement.
Apparently, some time between me leaving grade school and starting high school, these toys were out in stores:
Computer Warriors?!? Fucking robots hiding inside soccer balls, flashlights, and Pepsi cans?!? Mattel must have been trying to capitalize on the success of M.A.S.K. (my all-time favorite toy line) and Transformers, but just a tad too late or too early. If these would have lasted on the market, or arrived on the scene two years later when I had my first job at a toy store, I would have had them all.
But I’m an adult. I shouldn’t try winning some of them on eBay…
…but I will.
So now there will be three watching Delocated…on nights when I stay up past adult bed time.
I was unaware on how long that show has been on. It goes to show how crappy the programming is now on the “Cartoon” Network.
Bring back the Centurions!!!!
Yes! Everyone spread the word about Delocated!
