Ummmm

That's because they got rid of saturday night adult swim to do DAILY adult swim. Read the boards and check Toonzone before you post.

Okay he messed but the principial topic remains :

Why do I hate concerned Parents ?

#1 They aren't active enough. If they would there would be no Poke or Digimon, or most of DBZ because it endangers the intelligence of the children. (I don't have to mention Teletubbies, do I :) )

#2 If they are active they're up against something which is already clearly marked as off limit for children (PG, 15 I'm from Germany, I don't know the American system too well) or even already censored ( In Germany you can buy Hentai Movies at age of 16, that means what is left of them after cutting out the 'juicy' parts :evil: )

#3 Mostly the bitch about how easy it is access these things. Actually, at least in Germany it's quite hard too get 'illegal' stuff or even uncensored stuff - if the parents/discounters aren't too lazy controll them.
I mean bitching about his kid watching an uncut version of Pulp Fiction at midnight in the TV - There's just one thing I can say : If you have done your job ? - Why is it that your kid is up at midnight, huh ?

End of Statement.

Question : Why do you hate concerned parents ?

I'm guessing that he thinks concerned parents are the reason for the lineup change in Adult Swim.

checking the schedule works too.

Now with the rest of the topic. I personally hate those parents who are like we have to keep all this nasty language and violence away from our kids. (Don't even mention nudity to them.) An over exagerated example would be Kyle's Mom from South Park when she got that Canadian Show banned.

Those kinds of parents are the kind I don't like.

Concerned partents are retarded, they go and complain about what their children watch without considering that they can *GSP* MAKE THEIR CHILDREN STOP WATCHING THE DAMNED SHOW (or listening to the damned music or playing the damned game and so forth.)
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

actually...i do agree a bit

if i remember, on scifi there used to be a show called 'saturday anime' which showed saturday mornings. that changed to late night saturday because of parents and eventually was taken off because of them. parents have to learn that it's THEIR fault if their kids stay up late and watch tv. also, there are a LOT of other things that are much worse than plain anime going on (there's a little nudity SOMETIMES but heck, kids gotta grow up SOMETIME don't they? they must be pretty damn immature to not be able to handle little bits of nudity, some swearing, and violence...god forbid they show Rurouni Kenshin on tv if they can't handle Cowboy Bebop or Inuyasha!). i don't need to go on about it but you get the idea. now they might want to take some other things off before they start ruining it for all the anime otakus here.

(hopefully i didn't get anything wrong. if saturday anime is still on scifi (maybe by another name or something...) please tell me!!!! me misses it!)

aren't dogs already naked? wait...but...uh...well...um....er...uh...okay...

(*falls onto back, confuzzled*) :shock: :shock:

baisic point is that just because some moms and dads can't can't raise their kids right, and finds out that their watching anime doesn't mean that they've got to take action, complain, and ruin it for a lot of people who CAN handle anime..(what's there to handle? just cuz they might swear everyonce in an episode or there's just one scene of nudity for the entire series doesn't mean that it's so incredibly bad)

I WANT SATURDAY ANIME BAAAAAACCCCKKK!!! WAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!
