Why did the Power Rangers always wait until the Evil Queen made the villian huge before summoning MegaZord? Wouldn't it make more sense just to summon it right away and step on the bad guy?

That what I disliked about a lot of the kid's game shows when I was younger. I'd always get pissed off at people for seeming like idiots.
LotHT - The kids would be READ THE STORY and then get questions wrong about it. I mean, Christ, that's basic reading comprehension.
Guts - I respected these guys for the most part, but sometimes, in certain games, they'd have really bad strategies.
Nick Arcade - They almost always picked the worst gamers to play. They'd be playing Sonic 2 and the goal would be 30 or 40 rings in 30 seconds or so. They would start form level 1. HOW CAN YOU NOT DO THAT? There are rings EVERYWHERE, not to mention the 10-ring boxes that where around as well. Plus, the kids would miss the easiest trivia questions.
Teen Jeopardy - Even as kid, I'd know most of the questions, so it wasn't any fun because I wouldn't learn that much. Plus, as noted above, it's annoying to see people get really easy questions wrong.
This isn't just my perspective from now. I felt like this back when these shows were on and I was 7-8-9 or whatever.

Ever notice how many buildings that MegaZord destroyed? Wait a minute, you can't now BECAUSE THE FOOTAGE HAS BEEN EDITED OUT SINCE 9/11!!

I bet curling was made up on the spot by two bored janitors on frozen lake. Like golf and sheperds. Or polo and mongolians.

Why does it have to be janitors? And obviously if they were curling they weren't bored! Jeez

Curling is fucking intense. Watch a game, start to finish. It's really exciting.
I shit you not, I love watching curling. It's never on in the states, though. Sometimes FSN North will carry the World Curling Championships, but not every year.

I love curling... my dad used to go Curling every week. I've only gone twice, but I liked it. And watching it is fun... but if you were blind you'd think they were having hardcore sex or something!

Curling and sex don't belong in the same sentence.

I was watching an episode of Teen Jeopardy last night and the Final Jeopardy question was: THESE TWO COUNTRIES ARE THE TOP TOURIST DESTINATIONS FOR AMERICANS.
One girl put Paris and London, which are, you know, CITIES. Also, the answer was Canada and Mexico.

Yea, I saw that also and that's exactly what I was talking about. Granted, I thought the answer was France and Spain, mainly because I never think of Canada and Mexico as any sort of hot spot, but the logic is there. But I mean... cities?
Cities?

I tried watching Teen Jeopardy, but after I realized what I was doing, I punched myself in the dick for being a queer.

Especially when some dopey motherfucker would stand in one place while elves were shoving snowballs in their ass and they were trying to nab the first coin. "Hey asshole, we only have 60 seconds, and you used 55 of them getting an elf job. Get off my team."

I always said to myself "If I was on that show it would be so easy"
but it occurred to me, I doubt teh kids could even see what was going on, they were probably told to stand in front og a green screen and jump around ,and they might win.

I fucking hate other races. Like, Atlantians. Hey, fuckos. No one's impressed. Sure, you might have been ooh, advanced when you were using pulleys 10,000 years ago, but get with it. No one cares

That's true. She's like the Obi-Wan Kenobi of sex. I say Obi-Wan because I think Dr. Ruth takes the Yoda title.
