I was going to go with "Remember Alf? He's back...in pog form!"

Then give kudos to the person who could tell me what TV show it's from.

Either way, hi. I'm Stu.

I've been browsing from day one, but just decided to formally intro myself in hopes that I'll actually chime in every now and then.

Also, I need you. All of you. In every way you could possibly imagine. I'm like the drunk boyfriend who disappears for long stretches of time, only showing up when he needs money or bubble tape.

Actually, to break the ice, I put up (am about to put up) a story in the workshop. Go check it out. It's quite terrible (and only 900 words for some quick reviews points!). Consider it a boost to your writing confidence. You're welcome.

And if there's a thread dedicated to the show Hey Dude, you'll find me in there.

Welcome.  Calvin and Hobbes are very dear friends of mine.  So, what I'm saying is, I like you already, just for that nice picture.

Thanks.

Yea, Calvin and Hobbes are still among my favorite things to reread on a consistent basis. The anthologies are one of my favorite things on my bookshelf.

*Snort*  Everybody knows Salute Your Shorts was a much better show.  

(This post counts as a "Welcome" message.)

Alf was a racist and a pervert...there are youtube videos to prove it.

It's a little wild and a little strange

When you make your home out on the range

Start your horse and come along

But you can't get a ride if you can't hold on

Singin

Yippee-ti-yi-yay (Yippee-ti-yi-what?)

Like the cowboys say (Sing it again)

Yippee-ti-yi-yay (Get along little doggies)

'Til the break of day

Better watch out for those man eating Jack-rabbits

And that killer cacti

Heeeeeeeeeeyyyy Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

 

Anyway, what's up?

@Nick Nice call. That was during the prime Simpsons years.

@Max I can't argue that Salute Your Shorts was a great show. I swear I saw Donkey Lips working a Disney gift shop at one of their theme parks a few years after the show went off the air. Had the lisp and all.

@aliensoul Ever see the movie Permanent Midnight about the guy guy who created Alf and how fucked up he was? Crazy shit.

@Nighty Turn that into a ringtone for me, and I'll owe you a beer.

@Dave Touche Dave.Cleverness is fine art. Haha...But thanks for the greeting. Seems like a fun place.

Yes I did, that makes the show make so much sense now. He had to be on heroin to write that show. Melmac, eating cats, alien conspiracies...

I think I still have a soul. Any buyers?

Hi Stu. Any relationship to Stewie? Now that's a clever cartoon character.
