Well put, Ms. Rusnak. I'm not prone to awarding points to MTV, either, but Beavis-n-Butthead is the best thing they have on the air, and it does take a little courage to make fun of their own stock in trade by doing so.

Did you say a DRAFTING TABLE? Did you say DESIGN/WRITING STUFF! Woah! You must be the second coming of Michelangelo Buonarroti or Leonardo da Vinci or something! I like the way you say DAMN COMPUTER, too. It bespeaks a certain grudging affection which nevertheless leaves no doubt that you, for one, will never bow down to technology. I am quite simply honored to watch a show that a Renaissance man such as yourself (who uses a DRAFTING TABLE and does DESIGN/WRITING STUFF on a DAMN COMPUTER) uses for his nightly dumbing down.

You're right, Ms. Rusnak. Were you born and raised in Milwaukee?

Well put again. If Mr. Jack David Demers would walk away from his DRAFTING TABLE and pull his swollen head out of his ass, he would realize that B-n-B is satire: a legitimate art form practiced since the beginning of recorded communication. For God's sake, fart jokes and slapstick humor are literally thousands of years old: just about every comedic leitmotif used in B-n-B occurs--to just use one example--in the comedies of Aristophanes, including PooP jokes, references to popular entertainment, and double entendres. I could say it stronger, but it's too much trouble. Beavis and Butt-head rule the airwaves.

Oh yeah. And one more thing. THINGIES rule!

Well, at least you know their last names. I took a year of art history and we never learned last names.

Never said I didn't like the show. I never said it wasn't funny. It's accurate as a portrait of so many things which Ms. Rusnick mentioned so I won't repeat, since she did such a great job. Plus they do some pretty stupid things. Counterfitting money on a copier... It was so funny to watch Butthead try to bribe to clerk at the Quik Mart. I don't find it as cutting edge as The Simpsons but that's my opinion. I think you're reading too much into this. I love my work, so what?
