God just reflecting on my grocery store nightmare yesterday… I accepted my roommates offer to drive me there bc it was hot and I didn’t want to walk and she picked out 1 item and spent the rest of the time following me around commenting on my purchases so i ended up buying only half of what I needed. At one point i was goofing around with the shopping cart and she was like “You weren’t popular in high school… were you…” & if I hadn’t eaten a weed gummy prior to departure i would have been slain on the spot
The only thing standing between me and alcoholism is that i had a good childhood and nothing can take that away from me even my kinda bad adolescence or my steadily worsening adulthood
….That’s really what makes Bojack Horseman feel so different from other “adult cartoons,“ how often its “mature themes” and “comedy” are actually separate from each other.
South Park and Family Guy spend almost every moment mashing them up into cheap, gross and desperate shock humor while Bojack will spend one scene gravely exploring the realistic repercussions of emotional abuse and then the very next scene telling puns about whales. There are plenty of exceptions, but the adult stuff is pretty frequently allowed to be serious while the comedy is allowed to just be shamelessly light and silly.
pretty sure the results of this google advanced search would kill me instantly so i have it queued up on my phone at all times in case i’m ever captured behind enemy lines and want to take the easy way out
