Trying to be woke is making Disney broke. Good - they deserve it...

 
The Walt Disney company announced the delay on Friday. The firm cited the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike as the major reason behind the decision, but we can assume that's 110% bullshit. They're going back to the drawing board for a much better reason. When they previewed the new re-imagined dwarves, there weren't any. Dwarves I mean. Okay - one guy might be a dwarf, or just really short. They tried replacing the rest with a bunch of ridiculously chosen, 'gotta be inclusive or the shit don't work' posers. 
 
Previously, Disney said it was taking a 'different approach' with the characters originally referred 
to as the 'seven dwarfs' in its remake of its classic film Snow White in an effort to 
'avoid reinforcing stereotypes'

However, based on a new publicity picture of the film, it's possible that the House of Mouse could be using the time to rework some of the disliked aspects of the updated classic. You know, like making the Seven Dwarves dwarves again.
What a bunch of jerkoffs.

Isn't it frightening that you don't have to look very hard at all to find something to bitch about? All you have to do is turn on your TV.

When I was a kid, this was our 'google'. I think we may have been the only family in our neighborhood who actually had a set. We got ours from my Uncle Mondo, who owned a Gulf gas station and was always bringing us stuff that 'fell of the back of a truck' somewhere. 
I remember that my mother made us keep them in the basement because she didn't want her lady friends to think that we had enough money to buy such an extravagent thing like this. They certainly woulda thought my old man - who was a cop - was on the take from gangsters or some shit. Pretty funny looking back on all the shit they worried about.

That was another thing we had as kids, but we weren't alone in it - in those days every family, even the poorest we knew, had some kind of board games. We had dozens of board games. Some where given as birthday or Christmas gifts, some were traded off with friends, and sometimes some woud just magically appear. Everybody had checkers and at least one monoply game. There was nothing 'electronic' to be found, although there were some electrical kinda 'Mister Wizard' toys, but not in our house...

  1. I think I know that bridge. The road is Drew Way today, right? My father used to live in Lake City, not too far away.

    2. Yup, that's it. Stopped by there once on a motorcycle ride with my dad. If I remember correctly, that was the ride where I got attacked by a pack of semi-feral dogs along County 132.

  2. I have chased down a LOT of ghost towns here in Kansas, so the bridge was quite interesting. Checking out Ellaville on GoogleEarth gave some great info on the town and the time when it was in existence. It all is real similar to what we see here in Kansas ghost towns. Very cool
