"Heavy Metal" episode

Maybe I'm a little slow on the uptake, but after watching it again last night, it became clear that the episode was another slam aimed at the network censors. While the "Family Guy" episode demonstrated that the censors won't allow depictions of Mohammed, but are okay with showing Jesus and George Bush crapping on the American flag, the "Metal" episode exposed (so to speak) the absurdity of allowing graphic depictions of breasts as long as they're anywhere but in their customary place on the female body. Pretty bizarre if you ask me.

Excuse me, but are you really putting George Bush in the same category as Jesus and Mohammed??

Great Caesar's ghost! Hell no! I was merely commenting on the strange thought processes of the censors. I can see why you'd get upset, though, and apologize for giving that impression. Upon further reflection, I should have left Bush out of it. Believe me, it won't happen again!

Not really upset. I was just a bit puzzled. Thanks for clearing that up, though. You had me worried there for a minute. :)

As to the censors, I've noticed how inconsistent they are. For example, they don't allow any female nipples to be shown on TV, yet, in the first episode of the Fox series "Unhitched," the opening of the episode involved a guy having sex with a woman, and her pet orangutan attempting to anally rape the boyfriend.

So, the human body is bad, but adolescent orangutan gay anal rape is okay?? I'm completely at a loss.

What's the category? If it's "Saying Stupid Shit", then emphatically yes.

Yeah, at least Bush and Christ never molested little boys ....
