Or XX-MEN AM I RIGHT

"Ruined Gambit."

Did they accidentally give gambit a point

Shit, I think Rogue KILLED that guy. The message here is clearly that dancing leads to murderous carjackings.

They still let her keep her accent, so she's a southern goth.

So if she's a southern goth does that mean she's like a character out of a William Faulkner novel?

Technically, it means Rogue is a Juggalette.

Oh god.

Why else do you think they chose a career in childrens' programming?

Fuck you. This is nothing compared to Snake Eyes, Shipwreck, and Snake Eyes' dog rocking out.

That episode where Shipwreck accidentally burns down an orphanage then has to entertain the children was the finest moment in animation history

I was actually thinking of Pyramid of Darkness part 3, where Snake Eyes, Satin, Shipwreck and the dog pretend to be an 80s punk band but sound less like punk and more like a Laura Brannigan cover band.

"Shipwreck accidentally burns down an orphanage" is the funniest fucking phrase in the english language. At least to me, right now, it is.

He did. She's the dom in the all girl angst-ridden soul searching/group sex scene.

With Claws and Fury, hopefully.

Haven't you heard? Being spank-fodder is what's empowering these days!

Guide to post-Spice Girls popular female empowerment, aka Girl Power:
- be/aspire to be pencil thin
- if you aren't pencil thin, be aggressively big and beautiful and yet still secretly hate yourself inside for not being pencil thin
- have an exclusive entourage of hot friends; if you think any of them are hotter than you, secretly hate them; secretly pity the rest
- bond with hot friends over common interests (such as dancing, dating and shopping) and nothing more, even though this isn't really bonding
- be ambiguously homosexual with hot friends
- assault a boy for little or no reason, preferably in the junk
- wear: perfume, lip gloss, padded push-up bras, spanks, high heels, fake nails, fake lashes, wigs and/or hair extensions, and more makeup than a clown
- reveal the goddess in you by shaving/waxing everything under your eyebrows, plucking and styling everything else, and getting a fake and/or spray-on tan
- justify outrageous cosmetic surgery (not limited to but including implants fake enough to spot a mile away) by insisting that you did it "for yourself"

I don't know how women cope with being bombarded by this crap without going on homicidal rampages.

Also, a friend tells me that the Pussycat Dolls will be presenting and "performing" at the Kid's Choice awards tonight. Super.

Whenever cartoons try to empower a certain group, they end up being much more offensive to that group.

Every single time.

Heh, Captain Planet.

Anyone calling THIS awful animation is looking back on the original cartoon series with rose glasses. That thing was like watching a flip book of X-men comics.

Magma, Boom Boom, Jean, Shadowcat, Rogue
