I use to love Foghorn Leghorn, "Well it's a joke son, you know a funny, a play on words, an amusement, come on get with the program son, I'm trying to educate you, I say educate you, boy"
lol Foghorn Leghorn was one of my favorites too. He had so many good one liners for that time era which can be used in today's society.

And now all of those favs are too politically incorrect to see on broadcast TV. I've heard that if you order the set there is a digital preview warning about them being inappropriate. My digital library has the entire collection all original. I still laugh when I watch them, and so do my kids, and grand kids!

I remember getting home from school, and riding my bike 5 miles to pickup my newspapers, then folding and delivering them over another 5-8 miles, before getting home at dusk. We were out and about every day. And my parents weren't arrested for neglect for allowing me to walk a mile or two to the nearest 7-11 to get a coke!

Times sure have changed.

Many/most of those old favorites are broadcast on MeTV Toons - that is a new broadcast station that started up this year. If you have Philo they have it on there too. I will fire up the looney toons at times.

I too love Foghorn leghorn - I actually love how there were always two levels of humor in those cartoons - stuff that kids enjoy and stuff that only adults understand. It was brilliant.

But this persons YouTube channel has over 4.45K subs and this video got 3M views. I'll stand by my initial thought it's a fake and done for views and money. These people make a lot of money doing dumb stuff like this on YouTube.
Why do you need to fake dumb stuff, I see enough dumb stuff for real every day!

Yep, genius! And if the kids understood the adult stuff, it WOULD be inappropriate. Miss those days.

I've had it happen twice where a car was parked at the pumps when I pulled up. Finished filling up and still the car is sitting there with noone around. And there were plenty of spots in front of the store to park. Do you park in the drive thru too? I just don't understand that dumbass inconsiderate behavior. :facepalm:
If I fill up, then need something from inside the store, I'm not moving my truck.

Recently, a local radio station played Dire Straits 'Money for Nothing', unedited. Ballsy move in these days.

The Three Stooges' slapstick antics has gone from funny to blatant physical abuse.

I wouldn't move my truck either if I were filling up unless there was a line waiting for the pump. But to park there and not fill up just to avoid a door ding is kind of a *!@$ move for anyone to do.

? I guess the only reasoning I could see is if you had to use the rest room and there were no other parking spots and you were about to chard your draws. :oops:

Proper way would be to install computer software which prevents opening exterior doors, toilet doors or paying in the establishment until the car has been removed. We could throw in an AI tracking the customer through CCTV to be sure.
