I've been trying to get my granddaughter to like the cartoons I liked growing up. It started with Ducktales and now it's Animaniacs (interestingly enough, they've both been recently rebooted).
I didn't realize how annoying Animaniacs was until now…I need to apologize to my parents.
Also: GI Joe. Anybody ever watch this as an adult and wonder if you were retarded as a child?

^ I have a nine month old at the moment and I dread the day she starts being interested/we start allowing her to watch cartoons. Cruel and unusual punishment.

Caillou should be banned under the Geneva Convention.

I'm kinda lucky in that my boy likes a lot of the stuff I introduce him to. Yes, he does like some of the cheese like Dinosaur Train, Caillou and the like but he also likes Transformers, Teen Titans Go, Spongebob, Gatchaman (Japanese cartoon), Voltron and all the other typical fare that 5 year olds like.
@Matty123 your daughter will soon outgrow the Teletubbies and move onto something else. When my son was 2-3 we watched a steady stream of Barney, Sesame Street, Odd Squad and whatever else was on PBS, but the local library yielded a bigger variety of stuff, so I could pick and choose what my son watched.

The library has been an indispensable resource for books/cartoons for my son as well as dvd's for myself. I go there weekly and it's always fun. Of course, every library is different and some do not have child friendly amenities, like a play area, but it's never a wasted trip.
I know it's a cliche but kids grow up fast and you learn to appreciate seeing them mature. Changing poopy diapers and cleaning up vomit was an experience i'll never forget, but I don't exactly want to go through it again
Nowadays it's all about teaching my boy about being self-reliant and learning how to do things for himself. It's challenging but still a good experience. -

^ I sold a shirt to someone in Costa Rica on Grailed about a year ago that never made it. The extent of the tracking had the parcel leaving Los Angeles. About 6 weeks later it showed back up on my door step. I imagine if there was any tracking after leaving Los Angeles it would have looked like Seul's disaster above.
Rant of the day:
Q: What are (Insert Jean Brand)'s recommended washing instructions?
A: The same as every other brands! Don't overthink it. You're washing jeans not trying to brew the perfect cup of coffee. Temperature doesn't have to be exact. -
Chiming in to seuls shipping Desaster - here's mine. Finally found the green hoodie in madmondays sale. It made it to Germany without customs, was on the rout to my postbox, never got delivered but instantly returned to the US and has been missing now for two weeks.

Yeah this is kind of crazy.
I would love to know what happened between February 16 and February 26. @Max Power Will let you know once the hoodie gets back to me and we can figure out the route you want to take. I have a formal request/complaint in with the USPS since this was sent by a traceable and insured method.
This is why I tend to send a bunch of messages checking on if an item has/has not been delivered when I sell/trade items.
Sorry for the inconvenience on this and feel free to message me any questions, concerns or gripes.
