  • I love answering questions as well, but I get tired at the end of the day. Yeah, my wife is also like that, so that’s why he usually comes to me for Q&A’s. I don’t mind, I love it as well, brushes on what I know and how/why things are what they are. But, as I said, at the end of the day, I’m just tired. Work, plus that, plus everything else going on in life and at 10PM I’m just drained, I just hit the hey 🤷.



  • To be honest, I was never a mecha nerd. I mean, a few episodes of this or that, mostly at friend’s places, but I never watched anime or mecha on a daily basis. But yeah, I did understand the culture and the people (some of my friends were anime and/or mecha nerds).

    That’s why I LOVED Megas 😂. It was an anime parody 😂. You don’t see too many of those, not to mention with good animations and made to look like it’s a dead serious show, lol.

    Yeah, it was meant for a more mature audience, I mean there was a lot of sex related jokes and dialogue, lol. I wish they bring it back on Adult Swim 😭. I would pay good money to see new episodes of it… I really would, that is probably the one show from my childhood that I was like “huh 🤨… you show this to kids?.. that’s so cool 😂” (I wasn’t that young, I was like 17, 18, I understood the dialogue and the jokes).

    What can I say, chicks dig giant robots man 🤷 🤟 😂.



  • My main thing is that I can’t really stand shows that have no substance - I’d much rather have shows that I can watch together with my 7yo and have things to call back to when we’re having our own disagreements and conversations.

    I do that with movies with my son, not cartoons. I want things with substance too, but not in cartoons and not too much of it (in cartoons I mean). Sure, a nice thought here and there, that’s OK, but elaborate digging into emotional subjects, that’s not for cartoons IMO.

    I can definitely see there being parents out there who would rather let the TV parent though, and shows like this one enabling them… but on the other hand, I also think that’s a positive for the shows. Bad parents are going to be bad parents, so at least in those cases a kid can at least find some kind of role model.

    That is true I guess… as much as I’d hate to admit it…

    Either way, different strokes and all that. Hope you’ve managed to find some good ones to watch these days!

    Not really, I kinda gave up… plus, I’m way too busy rasing the kid now, so I just watch Discovery Science to relax now. Kinda contradictory, I know, lol 😂.



  • I just don’t like it, too serious for my taste, not enough humor, and the little humor it does have, it’s borderline funny. The main reson I don’t like it is exactly that, it’s like a self help show. I wanna be entertained, not drown in depression elaborating emotions. My wife does that, I have enough of that in my life, don’t need a show to do that as well.

    Basically, I want humor in cartoons. IMO, they’re made to entertain, period. Some of the old shows may not have had adequate humor for children, granted (though I think it depends on the child, I’ve watched most of those shows while growing up and IMO they were all great), but that doesn’t mean they weren’t funny. They were hillarious. Cartoons nowadays are too serious, always mixing emotions and how to deal with them. My guess is that parrents noways wanna leave this educational aspect of the child to the TV too, so my guess is that kids watch these things cuz they don’t get any input from their parrents regarding these complicated subjects.
