103. There's a MAGA in the apartment across the hall from me.

She is of Russian descent. Ever since the Russians invaded Ukraine she has had two small Russian flags cross-crossed on her door. Under them is the Z that Russians painted on their tanks.

Her name is Natalia. Privately, I call her Natasha, after Boris' sidekick.

(I found a picture online of a US and a Ukrainian flag criss-crossed. I printed it out in color and placed it on my apartment door. Natasha/Natalia no longer speaks to me.)

[debm55]

106. Good for you!

[brush]

108. Great move. You lose nothing with her not speaking to you.

97. Why did Ginger have alll those outfits if she was only on a 3 hour tour????????

34. Wile E. Coyote...most brilliant cartoon creation ...EVER.!

Created by ...Chuck Jones, Michael Maltese.

Micheal Maltese designed iconic Looney Tunes characters like Pepe Le Pew, Wiley E. Coyote and Yosemite Sam.
Maltese also worked on TV shows like: The Flinstones, Yogi Bear, Secret Squirrel etc.

[Sneederbunk]

47. Jim Jordan

[debm55]

53. LMAO Thanks for the laugh

[rsdsharp]

48. I'm a Goofy kinda guy.

Which begs the question: Why was Goofy Mickey’s friend, but Pluto was his pet? They’re both dogs.

[debm55]

55. Yes, that's something to ponder and Goofy wore clothing and Pluto didn't. I'll have to start an OP

on that, unless you want to? Thanks

[debm55]

75. Do you mind if I borrow and start a thread with it?????

[rsdsharp]

76. I don't mind at all. I can't claim any ownership.

[Mr.Bill]

54. Mr. Peabody

I had a job once where I had been there so long they would tell new hires if they had any questions, to ask me. One of the guys started calling me Mr. Peabody and the name stuck.

Let me be clear that most of the questions were about very important matters like what do we do with empty boxes, where's the bathroom and what time do the paychecks arrive on Friday.

[debm55]

56. That's funny. So you had a bunch of Shermans? Thank you.

[Jrose]

58. Lisa Simpson

Smart, aware and she plays the saxophone!

[debm55]

79. Yep, she is the smartest in the group. Thank you.

[First Speaker]

59. Jessica Rabbit...

drop dead gorgeous...and she really loved Roger after all...

[debm55]

80. I remember seeing the movie when it came out. Loved it and her. Very sexy.

[Different Drummer]

61. This character.

[debm55]

70. ROCKY! Thanks

[jmowreader]

73. My favorite cartoon character overall is Owl Jolson

He is in one cartoon - Tex Avery's 1936 short "I Love to Singa." This jazz-singing owlet caused his parents to accept him for who he is; he's a metaphor for the LGBTQ community. Papa told his wife "if he must sing, we'll teach him to sing the way we want him to." At the end of the film, Papa Owl told Owl Jolson, "go on and singa - about the moon and the June." A truly charming cartoon.

Characters who are in many features? Gotta be Boris Badenov.

[debm55]

78. I love the Owl Jolson piece of your post, very sweet and meaningful. Hard to believe it came out in

a 1936 short. Thank you for posting that.

[femmedem]

82. Snoopy!

Or if TV specials don't count, I'll toss in a vote for Fred Flintstone. Or any of the Flintstones.

[debm55]

83. femm--We'll count both.

[femmedem]

85. I actually barely remember the Flintstones but I thought someone should mention them.

Yogi might really be my favorite, too.

[GoodRaisin]

84. Butthead

[debm55]
