4. There was an adult version of Dick and Jane
It was hysterical - divorce, alcoholism, lesbianism, etc.....

My choices:

Carl and The Baby
becomes
Carl Faces Pedophilia Charges

Winnie the Pooh
becomes
Winnie the Shit


Now I feel really dirty and awful.....

Khash.

28. You should feel dirty
Why the negativity?
Winnie the Pooh becomes The Tao of Pooh
Danny and the Dinosaur becomes Daddy the dinosaur
What is so hysterical about divorce and alcoholism?
Is adult life really a decaying underbelly or is there another side of the elephant? I really think I prefer Thomas Kincaide to this kind of art.
Maybe I am just too much a child of the 60s when we thought the forces of love were gonna win.

27. sounds kinda like "Where the wild things are"
So growing up means alcoholism? What if they grew up into adults instead of 25 year old teenagers?
Maybe something like:
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Root Canal
or
The Berenstain Bears look for a job with benefits
or am I just raining on a perfectly good party?
:party:
