Well, sign me up for "screwed".
JackMN has discovered the Teletubbies, but as if that's not bad enough in itself, he put a Teletubby DVD on and only wants to watch the menu screen. If you even try to play the movie, he starts growling and shouting "noooo! noooo!"

I've been listening to Teletubby theme music, punctuated by an occasional "la-di-da-di" or "uh-ohhhh!" over and over for the last two hours.

Summer vacation is neither, at present.

:banghead:

1. Jack and I SO need to hang out!
I used to watch Teletubbies every morning at 7 before work. I love that show. It's like taking acid without all the work! :D

And yes, I was in my 20s at the time.

5. "It's like taking acid without all the work!" - Ain't that the truth...
I have no idea why, but I watched one episode where they had a segment about cheesemaking or something. The segment ended, and they cut to the Teletubbie who said "AGAIN!" and they played the whole damn cheesemaking segment all over again.

I had to sit down and figure out what the fuck was happening. It felt like I was taking crazy pills.

10. Tinky Winky
The teletubbies (especially Tinky Winky) are gay - "He is purple - the gay-pride colour; and his antenna is shaped like a triangle - the gay-pride symbol."

4. I once loved the Teletubbies
But, then I was on pain medication following minor surgery. LaLa is a freak.

And, the devil-baby sun-god can be a little unnerving.

Just hope Jack doesn't discover The Wiggles.
