In Reply to: Kevin: comments on Clerks cartoon posted by LoneGoddess on February 23, 2000 at 09:02:48:
: Kevin, After seeing you at Umass last night I wanted to share some thoughts about the Clerks cartoon and other stuff. (After all you did ask how we liked it.) Sheepishly I admit that I have not yet seen the movie Clerks, but that didn't prevent me from enjoying the cartoon. The only negative comment I have is regarding the Pediatric Burn unit. That just wasn't funny. I don't know about anyone else, but I didn't want that image in my head, and I didn't think it was something to joke about.
That was the point. Didn't you pay attention? Dante and Randall didn't look too happy about it.
: I also feel compelled to comment on the whole donkey punch affair. Sure it seemed funny, but what message is being putting out there for people? That violence towards women is not only acceptable but it's something to flaunt and joke about in public? I'm sorry if I simply didn't get the joke, but it appeared to be a straight-forward disrespect for women which is something I can never condone.
Kevin seemed genuinely disturbed by the whole thing, although he took it in an amused light. You probably were offended by the whole fingercuffs bit in Amy, and would be majorly offended by the 37 dicks thing in Clerks, so you probably shouldn't watch it. God help Kevin if you notice the hermaphroditic porn bit.

Chicks with dicks...I'm trying to expand my horizons.
