As long as I follow the rules, I can comment whatever I want.
verbatim from the rules here[0]:
"Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think something is spam or offtopic, flag it by going to its page and clicking on the "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did."
complaining something is on the front page, for all intents and purposes, is the same as saying it isn't appropriate for the site. Therefore, don't comment about it. Flag it. If you can't, than be civil and useful in comments until you can.
Not good enough for me.
This site isn't for YOU. It's for everyone, and you're breaking the rules. Play along, or move along.
IMO it's an overhyped show for the manchildren in a traumatized post 9-11 US (and, by it's cultural influence, the rest of the developed world).
Thanks for adding some actual content. It didn't really reply to my comment on this particular analysis, but I think I understand what you're getting at.
It's over-hyped, how? As in, popular and successful? or, heavily advertised? or just regarded better than it really is?
It's not really 'for' anyone but is meant to be appropriate for children, per the artist's interview in the article. Us man-children just like it, because it is poignant, intelligent, timely, and open-minded.
how a traumatized population in a post 9-11 US plays into Adventure Time is not 'obvious' to me. Perhaps you could enlighten all of us in 'bottom of thread' land as to what the hell you're talking about?
I respect your opinion, fellow internet denizen. I just don't appreciate your approach.
