Isn't it just the worst when your doctor calls you out for being "disobedient"? No idea how that ended up being this kid's answer, but we can all blurt out nonsensical, wild things when under extreme amounts of pressure.
Everyone knows that game shows and reality TV aren't as action packed as they're edited to seem, but some shows have different interesting quirks and things the average TV viewer wouldn't notice. Other than getting to talk to famous hosts and all the game show blunders, it's a weird reminder that the whole thing is a business.
Wallace and Gromit is a highlight of many childhoods, and many of us remember the cold, black eyes of this goddamn penguin. Just walking around, doing stuff like a sociopath. This thread goes into some of the reasoning why the the thing, down to its character design, radiated pure malice. Here are some more Tumblr nuggets to chew on.
She doesn't seem too open minded toward the whole idea of rejection. Man, oh, man.
Tumblr continues to churn up all kinds of silly, hilarious, strange, and just plain old random thoughts. We love it.

And here are some nostalgic memes for the 80s and 90s kids.
This guy shows the world what it looks like when one has no game, and instead proceeds to make a toxic mess of everything else around them. Legend goes that he's still in the hole that he dug himself.
Whether it's by design, some weird implication, or just a chimp going crazy on live television, people remember some of the stranger, creepier and more messed up points from their favorite TV shows as kids. Here are some funny moments of cartoon logic about the times that make less sense.
It's hard to cover up every plot hole of a cartoon that is by definition supposed to not make sense anyway. Some of these are delivered with a wink and a nod by the creators themselves, and others just kinda seem lazy. Sometimes it goes deeper, like how Tumblr explained that the Power Puff Girls are supposed to be freaky handless monsters.
That's the rhythm of the street, baby. Sure the show offered stories on how to navigate relationships, the value of friendship, and had Mr. Rogers on, but it had moments that were undeniably savage. What a wonderful kind of day if we can learn to work and play and roast the Aardvark out of each other. And holy crap Muffy served backhands like a tennis champion.
The Game of Thrones cast can't spell Daenerys Targaryen to save their lives! This would not please the Queen of Dragons. We're loving the funny little tidbit from the cast though, as the Game of Thrones hype continues to accumulate for the big premiere of the final season, this Sunday.
