DJStarfish Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 I'm 17. But I can still watch cartoon shows, you'll never be too old for cartoons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googler123 Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 26 here and the biggest 2 reasons are nostalgia and the fact that most of today's stuff are trash tier. Besides Rick and Morty, Legend of Korra and Gravity Falls there is nothing in the past 5 years that has even remotely grabbed my attention. Ok, samurai jack, but that probably doesn't count since it's a continuation of sorts. Not to mention the fact that most of the older series have many puns and sly stuff you couldn't pick up on when you were little. Just watch some Ed, Edd'n Eddy or Johnny Bravo and you'll see what I'm getting at. J.B.: "It's a beautiful day ... but not as beautiful as me.". Gets me every damn time.

ElementalCards Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 26 years old. Who says it's a crime to watch cartoons past what, 10 years of age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefarmboy Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 27, and I enjoy a good lighthearted laugh plus I find inspiration for my own art. Most TV today seems in a race to who can produce the most shocking and gritty show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olympustenay Posted October 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Well I asked this question because I have been downloading some of my favorites. I realized yesterday that I am 28 years old and maybe I am just wasting my time and space because I may not like cartoons anymore :(. Also people may make fun of me for watching cartoons at my age 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dab is a Cunt Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) To quote something I heard a classmate say in middle school "I'm not a child for liking spongebob you just have god awful taste. You don't like spongebob and you think I have a problem?" Edited October 13, 2017 by DabDeity710 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it is different I'd imagine it's different for you cuz you're 28 and I'm 20 but people made fun of me for only watching cartoons for a period of time, but that's different than simply watching them. Still a good show's a good show plain and simple. How many of these shows do you think are actually made with the intent of pleasing children? That's not the creation process for a real cartoon (maybe Micky Mouse Clubhouse and the pre school crap but not actual stuff) they try to make themselves laugh, I guess they feel like if they don't find it funny why the hell would we. Stuff like spongebob, Ren & Stimpy, PPG whatever it's made with the intention of being flat out funny for all ages. Hell Looney Tunes and the older cartoons are actually made for adults, that's why they have to censor the life out of them when they play them on tv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cow and Chicken/I Am Weasel, 2 Stupid Dogs, Ed Edd n Eddy, Invader Zim, etc. You even have shows with a more adult tone despite being totally child friendly like Batman TAS really anything DCAU.

ElementalCards Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 I have a few of my family's acquaintences telling me that video games and cartoons are for kids. Back then I remained silent, though rather annoyed. Now I blast at them for such bullshit statements. I'm like "does that bother you so much?" I'm not gonna "discontinue my favorites" just because they don't approve it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the members even asked me to give my ps 2 to my six year old cousin. I still play that. I bought it from my savings. Why should I give it to someone ? And they even let that six year old play GTA on their computers. Due to this I don't play video games when these people are around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElementalCards Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'm 26 and I never gave a frack if I play video games. I can only tolerate sarcastic remarks at work bc it's my only free time to play whenever I get bored amd they don't seem to care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElementalCards Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Not gamestop lol. Just clerical work at a clinic, sometimes I'm only useful as a "fill in" as I have no set task, which is what happened for 2 wks straight. After today, it's back to complete boredom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
