It's all fun and games 'till someone loses an eye. Then it's hilarious.
Then it's regulated as a sport.
Disney generally airs it's classic animation stuff during it's Disney Jr. block, for really young kids staying home. It knows what it's doing in that regard; a primetime airing is a special event and mostly for things like Frozen during the winter months and such, but it can show it's older stuff during Disney Jr. and know that it's getting a captive audience that'll probably grow to enjoy these works, at least nostalgically.
Remember; some kids are too young to be handed a tablet with something on it to watch, ether because they'll break it or they don't understand how to use it. There are also kids who don't have access to streaming tech (My mother has a class room of 30+ kids who don't) ether because of financial reasons or they just plain can't get anything faster than dial-up at home. There are all kinds of reasons why TV and DVD might be their primary viewing method.

Given the allegations against Louis CK, he might not be the best role model...You're completely correct. Nobody should ever joke about anything.

I hadn't heard anything about that. TO GOOGLE![DOUBLEPOST=1508793474,1508793140][/DOUBLEPOST]Just read about it. Nothing solid, nothing more than rumors. Yes, I know the same was said about others - Weinstein and Cosby spring immediately to mind - but these insinuations don't make them true.

From what I understand, the person (Jen Kirkman) who was thought to be accusing Louis CK said she was not talking about him. She originally gave no name, but the description lined up with some other Louis CK rumors, so people put 2 and 2 together. But then she said specifically she wasn't talking about CK.
Aside from the sexual assault rumors (some say Jen Kirkman, others say Pamela Adlon), it's been widely circulated that Louis CK will have female comics or comedy writers invited to his dressing room or the green room when they're on tour, and will basically start jerking off when they arrive so that they are sure to see him masturbating.

I also hate the concept behind the "Internet of Things." You remember that ridiculous juice press in the other thread? Poster child.
I think it has its places. Being able to control your lights and heat remotely could come in handy. But yes, not everything needs to be hooked up to the internet. The Juicero was a solution looking for a problem.
Kendo Anus?
Hmm... let's switch to Kendo Arm instead. Or Kendo Ankle. Or Kendo Artery.
Actually, why the hell did my brain go to "anus" first?
I know, which is why I didn't say Tentacle Anu.... uh, we're getting kinda NSFW here now.
Yeah, we're French Labia. We hate being labeled as indie because that isn't the branding we're looking for. Our style is more like a meeting of noir and post-industrial performance art with some jazz roots. We're probably going to be a this year's Lilith Fair, but I think it's gotten too commercial for our target audience.
