Steel Sponge

solid reminder for all to expect a huge rant from me centering on the criticism for Truth or Square later today. Be warned, I'll be really going hard.

spoiler for my best of animation 2017 list: gravity falls is #1.

and if you think gf didn't release any new material that year, we got this, so it counts:

that also technically means that I have a disney property as my #1 for the third year in a row. sorry guys, i guess i can't be diverse or fair when it comes to these lists.

Hot take: "Santeria" by Sublime has aged quite poorly.

It looks like we might be facing a dog, huh? I wonder how much ransom you get for a dog? I wonder how much dog you get for a ram? I want a dog. Why don't I have a dog?

When I see Youtube comments along the lines of "Nickelodeon's biggest mistake was not picking up Adventure TIme," I feel like asking them if they'd really want to live in an alternate universe where they did. If Nick had AT, it would've gone towards a different direction, it would've only lasted 2-3 seasons, and Nick Animation would've had more creative control over it. Greenlighting Fanboy and Chum Chum was a mistake, but does anyone else ever think that Nick has been starting to straighten up after living and learning through critical failures such as FB&CC?

Here's a strange question I have for any other music fan on here. I've been thinking about making a supercut at some later point, so I'd like to know if anyone knows of a song or songs with a chorus that ends at "tonight."

For those who are wondering how much progress I'm making towards my 2017 list for the year in animation, that is going to wait long until the same month I got my 2015 lists out, preferably by the time my summer break starts. Right now I'm hoping I can get that out before midyear list season.

For those who are wondering how much progress I'm making towards my 2014 list for the year in animation, I have most of my shortlist crossed out. There's a couple more foreign animated films I need to watch, one more series I need to catch up on, and one more series I need to start watching. I should definitely get my list out by the summer.

For those are waiting for my next FOP season review, I should get that out by the end of this month. It's going to take some time because Abra-Catastrophe! had given me so much ground to cover.

R.I.P. "Sherlock Gnomes: In theaters March 23rd" memes. ca. 2017-March 23rd 2018.

Welcome to the world, "Teen Titans Go! To the Movies: In theaters July 27th" memes.

I discovered this through my suggestions feed and goodness,  it's no wonder I feel the term rip-off is losing its meaning.

If you're trying to prove that two things are alike in many ways, do your research before you end up making it sound like you're comparing apples to oranges.

So I just realized that AJR have a number one song on the Alternative chart.

Why are alt stations putting "Sober Up" in heavy rotation? ...Just why?

Watching Caddicarus' review on the George of the Jungle PS2 game makes me realize how much of an enigma that the Canadian animated cartoon show's underdog success is. Like, the show was given a second chance 8-9 years after it ended its run and yet [insert dormant, beloved animated series here] is still waiting around? The show even got its own video game for a handheld and a console when some other big name Canadian animated properties like the Total Drama series didn't?

After finishing up S10 of Fairly OddParents, I'm currently torn on whether Chloe or Mr. Turner was the worst character of the season because my thoughts are lingering towards the latter.

While going through commercials for Nicktoons, I discovered a string of ads for a toy called Pop n Play Pimples. I was expecting some BigSpot.com fakeout only to realize it in the end that such a product actually exists.

After watching one episode of FOP S10, I've never witnessed anything more ironic from the show than the characters telling Barry Roosevelt the Hip Hip Hedgehog "you're terrible!" (as well as "Go back to Redondo Beach!" from Timmy's dad.) when he has like only like 1 minute worth of screentime and 20 seconds of dialogue in the entire episode, and yet we're supposed to hate this one-shot character...because he's a bad rapper yet he gets interrupted by the "you're terrible!" lines. What's ironic about that is that I feel more bad about Barry Roosevelt than I do towards Chloe.

I've finally been trying to finish up Legend of Korra since the past two months. I'm now up to Book 3 and after being halfway through Change, I can say for certain that it's a vast improvement from Air and Spirits.

So today I just learned that there's a collectible figurine set called Poopeez....and a web animated series based on these toys. Yep...hottest selling toy of the year right here.

It's been a while since I've been active here. Sorry guys, I've been in a coma for 5 years.

(SBC THEORIES) (NOT CLICKBAIT)

The age of Cousin Mel may be over, but Steel Sponge lives on...but of course, since my name is still Steel Skeet I'm still gonna go with the theme here until I decide to rename my display name. Steel Sponge will be back though.

On the first day of CN's TTG Christmas marathon that my true love gave to me: a clickbait video from Vailski.

Taking a look at the year-end list, I wasn't expecting this particular song to barely crack it, but that one hit single from Blackbear just trumps over anything bad put out by Machine Gun Kelly and G-Eazy Squeeze Cheese in terms of badness.

Just to give a little musing towards the worst hit songs lists, I'm surprised at the lack of "Cold" in not only the worst lists but also on the dishonorable mentions so far as I've seen from music critics on YouTube yet I've seen "Don't Wanna Know" appearing often on them and "What Lovers Do" twice on the lists collectively. IMO, "Cold" is one of few M5 songs where Adam Levine is at his worst.

So, I've closed down my NaNoWriMo account a year ago and I find it baffling that they're still sending me stuff to my email account. They must really miss the sponge of steel, it seems.

Hey, it's December...and you know what that means?!??

GRANDPA'S GONNA SUE THE PANTS OFF OF SANTA- but he's also suing me because I'm doing List Season too late. However, I am celebrating this season currently as Catch-Up Month.

Okay, so the court session that's going to be next week isn't actually too seriously like we thought it could be. But yeah, nothing else is different. Still have that thing next week along with the fact that I have the entire Thanksgiving week off.

Just a reminder. I'm gonna end up writing my Entertainment lists late again. Right now, I'm dealing with most of my television network service being down so I had to end up missing the one entire week of new SpongeBob and I'm also gonna end up skipping the entire Starbomb if it's still down for the next two weeks. And considering that most of my TV service is down, Nick.com is also cockblocking me when they have the episodes online. Another reason why is that I haven't been doing enough TV viewing all year-round because of my depression over the fact that I haven't been doing anything much all year.

I'm currently living in the worst year of my life, so you can't really blame me for being tardy on my lists again. I've also been planning on a worst list for animation just to spite 2017, but I may or may not get it out depending on how much time, money (for watching the animated films, of course) or options I'll be able to have for it.
