This Disney-ish vid is 100% puke! Who the f**k puts ketchup on spaghetti? Thank God Ray Liotta and Henry Hill are gone because if they watched this sh*t...Oh God!

I don't think kids care. I think, to kids, especially like 4 year olds, it's not about the sauce (or ketchup); it's about the noodles.

I think the animation is entirely 2D.

Saying "(insert name here) sucks" was technically taboo in the 90's...might as well say "I put that sh*t on everything" without the bleeps!

I really don't like hearing people talk like that in commercials. "Sucks", "pissed off" and other mildly crude expressions. I don't know why; in TV shows and movies, it's fine.

What I can't stand is this modern trend towards "verbing" words that are not verbs.

Like "adulting" or "braining", etc.

Example:



Just came across (no, not like that you perverts) this...



When people do that, they are not braining.

^ We need to shoulder some of the blame for that trend:

Let's party!!!

I seem to recall first saying that in college, around 1974.

The word "shoulder" itself is another example of a noun being verbed.

But that goes back God only knows how far.

This new trend is just silly, though.

I hate the verb-as-noun trend too. In particular, I HATE hearing the verb "ask" used as a noun. Merriam-Webster says it's fine though!

https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/a-take-on-the-phrase-good-get

From the article:

It might surprise you that, though both nouns sound like recent jargon to most people (“a good get,” “what’s the ask?”), get and ask have been nouns for as long as they have been verbs in English; the nouns are just much less common today.

BS, I say!

I had never heard either of those before now.
