This bout of rage consumed me while looking through Sesame Street clips on YouTube because it's awesome and it's been ages since I've seen it. The problem arose when I was reading the comments while waiting for the clips to load, on some of the less conventional videos there's always some comments about how the creators must have been on drugs...

So according to today's retarded generation, creativity can only be obtained through the use of recreational drugs. I've noticed this is not limited to Sesame Street, there are many other occasions when I've heard such comments made, Adventure Time was similary marred with this kind of commentary. Now whether the creators of these things actually were on drugs is neither here nor there, the point is that any kind of non-conventional creative talent is immediately passed off as being the result of drug use.

On a similar note, those people who say that <insert show here> is much funnier when you're drunk. If you really have to be drunk to have a good time it's probably a good time to look up the number of your local AA...

You live on planet earth, which is full of people who think everyone else is an idiot, when they actually do a lot of things that lots of other people think are idiotic.

So, while you may think that a comment (no doubt well-researched and eloquent, as YouTube comments are) might be stupid, others may think it strange that people over the age of 3 are still watching Sesame Street.

Sesame Street rules.

And I get what you're saying, Murray. With Ducktales, about a good majority of comments were "what drugs were you on?" I don't think I've ever seen a cartoon made by someone who was on drugs.

Well, look at the guys on Jackass. They'd nearly kill themselves in front of a camera for money and attention. Are they on drugs? Maybe. but some people are just born with issues. Confused

I'd sooner blame booze on the Jackass guys. However, they are trained stuntmen, so they've got years of experience to keep them safe (for the mostpart.)
