antibigotry notice

this post does not support or normalize misgendering nonbinary people. wakko generally seems to canonically accept he/him pronouns, but if that weren’t the case the behavior exhibited in this post would be unacceptable, harmful, and vehemently condemned, and would be showcased here only as an example of and condemnation against bigotry, and should not be understood as condoning.

      That joke is even better when you know the story behind it. What they would do is put extremely over the top jokes into the script for the censors to pounce on so that the slightly off color joke they wanted two pages later would seem tame by comparison.

      That was one of those jokes and somehow it slipped by everybody.

        What was the tame-by-comparison joke it was paired with?

          Honestly I can’t remember. I just remember reading, many many moons ago, a writer talking about that.

      Mine’s the siblings managing to get the Guru to lose his enlightenment by asking him why hot-dog buns come in pack of eight but sausages in packs of five. It’s a highly important theological issue for Discordians.

      Speaking of: Now with DC being part of Warner it’s high time for an Animaniacs / Harley Quinn cross-over. The gal’s superpower (besides superhuman agility and being a genius psychologist) is to be annoying to the point of immortality: She once died, neither God nor Lucifer fancied spending eternity with her, so they sent her right back.

        Yes, but the crossover should be stealthy. Make it seem like just a new Harley Quinn comic but in the first issue she gets caught by Batman and locked up in an unspecified location. CliFfhanger eNding, there’s sOmeone or something in there with heR in the Dark. Next issue reveal that she’s in the WB water tower.

          The only downside to that idea is you KNOW the previews would ruin any reveal. Shows are so much better going in blind. At least decent ones.
