I loved that time period. We had aqua teen, Ben 10, anime every night almost. Good times

[@Vergil666.]

Cancelling Aqua teen was completely idiotic. Sure the show has some bad episodes, but overall the quality is still there. We got a show that was cheap to create, with a large fanbase, and creators who still wanna create and haven't lost their passion for it. Yet let's cancel it because "it's time to move on" this is the equivalent of comedy Central cancelling South Park, and when asked why the did so, they just say "eh, just because" like why.....

[@FormalFilmsProductions]

Network mindsets confuse me sometimes

[@ravinraven6913]

I feel like it was both idiotic and a good thing. People got burned out of it...shouldn't have canceled it but it sounds like they were just tired of making it and ready to do something better.....Maybe they should have shelved it every other year. But the new stuff seems like it has completely forgot what made it good in the first place....the broodwhich episode was brilliant...then they did a throw back...where they had another broodwhich. And that episode was moronic.

Adult swim shows felt like hangs...Id watch them with my friends stoned so much that when id view them alone, it genuinely felt like i was in a room with ppl just chilling...nostalgia doesnt describe it really, these shows transport me to a very specific time

[@ravinraven6913]

what does hangs mean? I feel like people think it transports them to a time...but in reality. It turns our brain on in a way that only happens with these type of shows. It doesn't make me feel like im 10 years old again. But it does make my brain, both the 13 year old me and the...37 year old me. It doesn't need a time, because my childhood is definitely not something I would want to relive...its not the time or the memories. It's what the program is...nostalgia definitely isn't something I like. But this show does bring back good memories. But its from the show...so if its the show and not the years, it has nothing to do with time or nostalgia, rather a bit of sane insanity, in a world of just insanity.

for context, ice on my fingers, on my toes, and on my tiors (tires said in a way to help it rhyme) would imply that meatwad wears diamonds on his hands and toes by use of rings, and also on the rims of his tires. it was always my favorite part of the intro since meatwad lacks hands for fingers, and feet for toes. He also cannot drive.

[@animeloveer97]

I mean the little dude can transform into samurai Lincoln 😂 technically that's feet and hands

[@ravinraven6913]

the heck are you saying....he says "ice on my fingers and my toes and I am a taurus." Taurus is a zodiac sign...its also a gun....and a shape like tires, a donut and a Taurus is a bull which is where the zodiac sign comes from...only the tire would fit...and its not that one. Because ice...being jewelry....means hes got a gun. But I believe. They are talking about the zodiac sign....I dunno how people get so wrong, one lyric...I mean granted even when using the right word, there still a few options. But at least they make sense..... it says "we are the aqua teens" so that doesn't say that the singer is...or is singing about meatwad....

you apparently need to learn how to talk without cussing.....I can post hundreds if not thousands of ATHF quotes and not be censored or anything...but then again there are little cowards out there that say, oh you can't say that or you will be on a list... There was a certain attempted assasin that wasn't on ANY lists....and he did kill some some one. Nothing of what ATHF says will ever get you on a list or banned. Unless you take it out of context, make threats or cuss too much... This is cleaner than half the crap rick and morty say. They joke about incest all the time, the creator sent a video of him masturbating with a mannequin leg and he didn't get banned....he's still a children's cartoonist. If that doesn't get you banned then nothing you can do will.

"meatwad get the money, see" means he is proficient at earning more than enough cash to survive. "meatwad get the honeys, G" means he is attractive to attractive women which is a desirable quality. "Drivin in my car, living like a star" means he's driving in his car and living like a star. "ice on my fingers, on my toes and on my toys" means he's got diamonds in jewelry on his hands and feet, as well as adorning other belongings of his. You're welcome.
