What you can learn from TV

muck_a_luckThe Barbarian is a big fan of a new song: "I cuts down trees, I wear high heels, suspenders and a bra!"
AG33, while amused by the song, was even more amused by the letter afterwards, from Brig. Gen. (Mrs.), stating: "I know many lumberjacks and only a few of them are transvestites."
Also, The Barbarian thought it was really funny when in one of the animation segments a big hammer whalloped a piggybank.
Also, you may recall a sketch where they had cassette players up their noses and were sticking their fingers up there to turn them on and off.
The Barbarian was doing a little dance to the music, that included poking the air with her fingers.
Oh! And the thing I was forgetting. There's a sketch where a new Prime Minister enters 10 Downing and starts taking his clothes off because it's hot and reveals that he's wearing none other than a bra, suspenders and thigh highs underneath. The Barbarian said to me: "He needs take a bath, right?"
:D

Just don't call social services, please.
AG33, now. There's some serious potential for corruption of a young mind. :D

Date: 2009-05-06 02:26 am (UTC)When I was a freshman in high school, a few of the senior boys decided they would do The Lumberjack Song for the talent show, but the Principal said it would be inappropriate, and they shouldn't. They came onstage and started it anyway, and the Principal actually cut power to the gym to shut it down, and suspended them. 0.0 The Lumberjack Song!
On the one hand, it was a Catholic High School. On the other hand, the football players (some of them the same guys as in The Lumberjack Song skit) and the cheerleaders regularly used to swap clothes for the spirit rallies--the guys would come out in the short pleated skirts, makeup and hair ribbons, and the girls would wear the uniforms with black under their eyes.
In sum? I could not be prouder that you are corrupting the Barbarian at this young age!!!

AG33, however... :D
