Training the kids to get excited about Super-heroes, Transformers, Star Wars, etc is always rewarding when they can sing you the theme song.

Or if your son clocks his mother with a lightsaber because he's Darth Maul. BING!

There was an 80s thing on TV. My 7 year old came into the room when the Wham "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" video was playing and there was a close up of George Michael. She asked, "Why is that man singing like a girl?"

[Diabolical]

They ain't my kids, but "Uncle" Diabolical got a kick out of hearing a certain set of twins yells "Its a trap!" into the phone the other day.

That's kick-ass!!!

Good children deserve pudding. Go out and buy them a snack pack.

i had a suspicion that this was bill cosby, but the insistence on a 'snack pack' has be befuddled... the 'cos would never say anything but jello pudding... i guess we'll just never know the person posing as our perplexing purveyor of pudding...

Does Jell-O manufacture Snack Packs?

[vynsane]

i know the brand "snack pack" is a hunt product, who are owned by ConAgra, apparently:

can't find anything about jell-o on that page, so i'd guess not.

So unlimitedpudding is the Anti-Cosby.

Does that mean he was an unfunny codger early in life, and is fucking hilarious now?

Bill Cosby is an excellent pudding spokesman, but he would have suggested a Jell-o Pudding Pop. You have my permission to look for Jell-o Pudding Pops in your grocer's freezer.

When your kid sings (albeit minus a few "doo-doo-doo's") the 1960s Batman theme.

When your kid picks up a Motorhead CD; asks, "Wha's dat?" and then learns a new word "Mohead! Mohead!" Apparently all flaming skulls are Mohead, so Ghost Rider is Mohead, too.

I figured mabs would especially appreciate that.

When your kids develop an appreciation of Weird Al.

when your 3.5 y/o daughter points to sleazer's avatar and says "waitaminnit, THAT'S the robot from star wars... the one with the bear" (that's what she calls the wampa) and you have to have the ever-important "2-1b" talk.
