they posited that Tad, the ride, and the whole shebang found their ORIGINS at the Disney ride.
I got just as dorkily angry when Dennis Miller made a joke about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles being a movie based on a breakfast cereal. I'm a frothing nerd about crap like that.
As I said down further, I'm probably just being something of an ass becuase I felt like one of my favorite childhood stories was being given short shrift.
Yeah, I agree, too- That's what Brodie probably meant, but the question was "What is Mr. Toad's Wild Ride from?" To simply say it's a theme park attraction angered the pedantic snob in me.
Sorry if I offended.
