8 Important Lessons Learned from '80s Cartoons

We'd like to point out that we're aware of the fact that some of the cartoons listed below did not originate in the '80s. However, they were on during the '80s, that's when we watched them, so they're '80s cartoons to us. It's like when we refer to bedwetting as "late '90s behavior." Without further ado... -->nobanner-->

CARTOON: The Smurfs
LESSON: Communism works!
For naysayers who point to the Former Soviet Union as proof that communism is inherently flawed, may we merely direct your attention to Smurf Village, where everyone shares everything, wears similar utilitarian clothing, battles Gargamel and his turn-Smurfs-to-gold get rich quick schemes and obeys the dictates of a bearded, red hat-wearing, benevolent authority figure. Quoth Comrade Papa: "From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs." Really, he actually said that.
How it affected us as adults: Secret communist agendas ceased being dangerous, or really any adjective of consequence, years ago. The worst thing communism does these days is make Ivy League students waste a couple of years wearing ugly clothes and attending boring meetings. However, the sexual politics of Smurf Village, with its one female for every 30 guys, did go a long way towards preparing us for freshman year of college.

CARTOON: Popeye
LESSON: Spinach is good for you.
Sure, it doesn't taste as good as candy, ice cream or opium, but it's full of essential vitamins and minerals that'll make your muscles explode like battleship cannons. If you want to triumph over the bullying Blutos of the world and win the affections of your own lovely, leggy Olive Oyl, pound a can of spinach at least once a day. Or put it in your corncob pipe and smoke it, like everybody's favorite ornery, mumbling sailorman. Toot toot!
How it affected us as adults: You only need to look at the steroid scandal rocking Major League Baseball to see that Popeye raised a generation that is willing to use performance enhancers. Also, it should be pointed out that Olive Oyl was the first anorexic sex symbol.

CARTOON: G.I. Joe
LESSON: Knowing is half the battle.
The other half of the battle is kicking Cobra's terrorist ass. And with the coolest soldier codenames ever --Snake Eyes, Duke, Lady Jaye, Shipwreck-- winning the war on terror should be no problem. Good will always win out over evil, because good guys work together (Team Work! Cooperation!), while bad guys are ruthless cowards who turn tail and run whenever G.I. Joe's laser guns get to zappin'. As Sergeant Slaughter once said: "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people and neither do we."
Now that's some good strategery.
How it affected us as adults: Actually, we're pretty certain that our strategy for the Iraq War was conceived after a two day long G.I. Joe marathon in the Pentagon. They just implicitly trusted that the good guys were going to win, that firing off our guns would make the bad guys run for the caves and that giving everyone cute nicknames was somehow endearing. When things didn't turn out the way they'd planned, the administration placed the blame on faulty intelligence, or in other words: "Knowing is half the battle, and we unfortunately didn't know shit."

CARTOON: Scooby Doo
LESSON: Trust no one.
Those phantoms in the fog are actually malevolent hicks, dressed up as ghosts to scare you off their spooky farm. That monster hiding in the attic is actually old man McGee, trying to find the treasure buried in the floorboards. And that happy-go-lucky frat boy, Fred, is actually a bloodthirsty killer. Don't turn your back on him. Or the girls. Or your dog
…Or maybe we've just been spending too much time in the Mystery Machine, and got a little contact high paranoia. Hey, it happens. You want a Scooby Snack? Yeah, it is dog food. So what? You're really harshing my mellow man. What are you, a narc?
How it affected us as adults: We can't be certain, but it would appear that our habit of, upon being dumped, grabbing hold of our ex-girlfriends' chin and yanking upward, started with this show.
-->pagebreak-->

CARTOON: He-Man
LESSON: It's OK to be gay.
Look at this guy: golden locks cut in a tasteful bob, buff biceps, tanned, toned, hairless torso, a magic sword and most importantly, fabulous powers. What's more, He-Man invites his handsome friends, the Masters of the Universe, to come hang out in his castle anytime. Of course Skeletor and his fugly cohorts are never allowed access to the secrets of He-Man's dark, dry palace.
Yes, we had He-Man toys, like Ram-Man, Trap-Jaw and even Castle Grayskull. We also had a favorite pair of tighty whiteys that had He-Man on one cheek and Skeletor on the other, battling over our asshole. But did merely owning and wearing that underwear make us gay?
How it affected us as adults: As regards the above question, it's a very complex matter, but in a word: yes. (For more on depictions of homosexuality in '80s cartoons, please see Care Bears.)

CARTOON: Jem
LESSON: Grrrls rock!
OK, this was more our sister's show, but we certainly watched it on more than one occasion, and learned that chicks with guitars and magic earrings kick ass. Jem is a sexy feminist living every young girl's dream: music executive by day and rock star by night. She has it all: a bubblegum pop band called The Holograms, a boyfriend in love with both her and her alter ego and, for some reason, a foster home for orphans. In addition to teaching us how much grrrls rock, Jem also taught us that love triangles between only two people are often messy, confusing and potentially hilarious.
What? You've never seen Jem? Oh. Neither have we.
How it affected us as adults: Let's just say the matching restraining orders filed against us by Debbie Gibson and Joan Jett didn't happen on their own.
-->pagebreak-->

CARTOON: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
LESSON: April O'Neil is really hot.
She's got red hair, wears a sexy yellow jumpsuit and gets down with anthropomorphic pizza-fiends. Most girls want nothing to do with dudes that live in the sewers, but not April O'Neil. She doesn't even mind hanging with that old man-rat wearing a pink kimono! This girl is a freak, for real. I've got one word for you dude: cowabunga. Cowabunga that chick in your underground lair all night long.
How it affected us as adults: Mistakenly thought our girlfriend would be cool with it if we called them dude, ate nothing but pizza and wore a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle mask during sex.

CARTOON: Transformers
LESSON: If we're not careful, robots will kill us all.
This is a humbling lesson for any child to learn, but an easy one to accept, considering Transformers was one of the coolest cartoons of the '80s. Would the Unabomber have renounced his violent ways if he were to witness the sheer stunning spectacle that is Grimlock? Hard to say, since he didn't have a TV. But we will tell you one thing: when machines replace humans at the top of the food chain, we'll be standing on the sidelines, waving our Autobot flag with fervent pride. Because, let's face it, getting eaten by an alien car would suck.
How it affected us as adults: The reason we stay away from Priuses and make our TV wear a blindfold when we sleep at night.



We look back at eight cartoons we watched as kids in the '80s, the lessons we took away from them and how those lessons can be blamed for the horrible mess we're in today.

 Chevelle - I get it!

So you say I make a man

As it is,

Well, give us your sad, sad trip



You're right, I get it

It all makes sense, you're the perfect person

So right, so wrong

Let's all live in your imaginary life



Assumed it's weather

We're right, I'm wrong

We're doomed, and there's plenty for all



How dare you catch me counting

How dare you call it off

How dare you call it suffering

How dare you call it off



You're right, I get it

It all makes sense, you're the perfect person

So right, so wrong

Let's all live in your imaginary life



Dress all these turings

They're doubled in time

The touch of life, what's failed to mention so far



Of course the lionous fountains

Or face the face we've mauled

Of fast and restless blackmail

Like pent-up vanished falls



You're right, I get it

It all makes sense, you're the perfect person

So right, so wrong

Let's all live in your imaginary life



Do you want enough?

Do you want it all?

Should you need it at all?

Takes a man to see

Do you want enough?

Do you want it all?

Should you need it at all?

Do you want it or not?



You're right, I get it

It all makes sense, you're the perfect person

So right, so wrong

Let's all live in your imaginary life



Life, life, life.

Wow me say something positive instead of negative or pessimistic...oh wait ur right...cant do it sorry. Nothing to be positive about right now.

Well first of all...Brian had been gone almost all week. THEN today my computer FINALLY died. Well at least the motherboard did. So tomorrow I have to check out prices and such for a new motherboard and of course new memory. So yeah lovely huh? Seeing as how I just bought new memory for it. Well at least I can send this one back. Thank God. But at least on the bright side my nails look great!!! I bought some of those fake nails ya just glue on but they look so real and they look like french acyrlic. So yay me! Interesting as hell huh? Well anyways...I am really bored. At least Brian brought home his laptop so I wouldnt have internet withdrawls. So I guess some good will come out of this. I will have a faster computer when all is said and done with. yay!. Also I getting my hair cut and color this upcoming Monday. So be on the lookout either Monday night or Tuesday sometime I should have pics up! I am not sure if I am going to get it dyed like a dark dark brown/reddish color or do like a dark dark brown color with lighter highlights. Like around my shade now highlights. But I am going to get it cut like the time before last I got it done. It is just too long right now and is pissing me off. It is too long right now and too hot to wear it down. Anyways..that is pretty much it for tonight I guess. I am tired and am going to bed! Night!

EDIT* well they did it. they deleted him when it was his RIGHT to do so. He had a first amendment right to do so! Fucking figures dont go along with what everyone else says and ya get fucking spanked for it. ASSHOLES!

Well I like this person's profile. They have said what I said in my last blog plus some new info. Finally someone who sees the light.

Donating Sheep

Yeah makes ya think huh? Well check it out and see what ya think.

Okay yeah I am soooooooo fucking sick and tired of hearing about Kaleb...okay so yeah someone shook him...he was REALLY sick for a while and is supposed to come home soon. I dont need fucking updates if I want to know I will go to Kristen or whatever her name is's myspace and read about it. NO I dont fucking want to donate...why cant someone donate money to me when I am sick or miserable? huh? Oh yeah I am REALLY getting sick of GOD this GOD that. Pray to GOD, GOD helps us. WTF???? Some of my friends post like 5 or more bulletins a day on how Kaleb is doing. I am not heartless I do feel sorry for him. What is done is done, But what about all the other kids that dont get their names in the paper or that actually die from it? I dont hear their names mentioned. It really is bullshit I mean come on ppl look she has done everything but actually came out and asked for money. I mean you can do that crap in ur church or work or whatever but keep it off the internet. Boy she feels like a spammer to me!!!!!!!

Global Warming...I never really knew what they were talking about til a few years ago. Then I started looking things up. Started reading some about it. Recently I finally watched The Day After Tomorrow. A bit scifi-ish or is it? well anywho. If you dont know what it is or know much look it up OR watch An Inconvenient Truth. It really does make you think. It is hard to get out of a lifestyle we were born into and have had our whole life. But what if everyone did something? No matter how small. It might not stop it...but it still would be better.

Here are also a few articles and sites to visit.
