Ah Sesame Street...one of the most annoying programmes in creation.
It varied so widely between enjoyable and dull as fuck and it seemed to last forever.

Unless smoking a large quantity of pot, of course. 

Otherwise, if you can remember it being "dull", you were probably already too old to be watching it.

Maybe, I dunno.
I remember some of it being really good, I loved the cookie monster. But those horrible poor quality animations about numbers and letters just annoyed me massivly.

They are aimed at kids young enough to still be unclear about counting to ten and recognizing numbers and letters. That's what the animations are for: re-enforcing recognition.

My kid isn't yet 4 years old; he already is basically too old for that, as he knows his numbers and letters already and is starting to spell out very basic words. 

Most people have only the vaguest memories of stuff that happened when they were 3-4.

I think thats when it was, it was certainly before I started school. It was on Fridays when I was dragged down to my nanna's house every week.
I definatly knew my numbers perfectly well then, I don't think I learned my letters until school though. I think it was just the crappyness rather than a lack of educational value.

Doesn't organic come from rotten organic stuff?
Are these: Space whales?

No.  Everything comes from space.

Organic chemistry relates to certain types of carbon compounds, many of which can be found in space.  Life processes are a subset of organic chemistry, not the whole of it.  Vast quantities of organic compounds are generated in space, especially the more simple methyls and ethyls.

Really, should you have to explain this to him?

He just wants to drain the booze so he can stagger around drunk.

Jos is a lower-class fellow from Northern England.  He doesn't know much about anything, other than coal-mining, binge-drinking and yobbish behavior.

Damn cake fell apart when I took it out of the pan.  I could blame myself for not lining the pan with parchment or using a boxed mix instead of making it from scratch.  But I'll blame Trader Joes instead.

Tore it apart and put it in a big bowl, layered with the chocolate custard that was supposed to be the filling, the whipped cream and cream cheese frosting, and some pudding to make a Death by Chocolate abomination.

The scraps taste pretty good.
