For some reason they played that like every weekend during the lead up to summer vacation. It is BURNED UPON MY BRAIN.
Yeah. And as I recall, they apparently didn’t replay it enough for me, because my brothers and I used to rent it from Blockbuster on the reg.
Me too!
That image/situation for “Le Garage” is so absolutely perfect. I forgot how much I like that song, so thanks for reminding me.

Screw those pantyhose. You’re the Control Top now.
One time my friend’s coworker said “nice power top!” to him and he almost yelled “YEAH I AM” but stopped himself just in time.

Immediately went to Amazon and bought the Tiny Toon’s Vacation DVD, thank you.
I can’t dance and can’t art but I really like “Say That You Love Me”, so I’m in kind of an awkward situation.
Modern dance and modern art?

Pretty sure if you listen to Q.U.E.E.N. often enough you will be fired for every Janelle Monae video on youtube instead of working. Monae obsessions are dangerous to encourage.

Modern dance and modern art?
“fun” fact: when i punched my v-card and the guy was driving me home, i sung him “not about love” out of sheer excitement. if he’s reading this for some reason, hey dude.
Bless the Tiny Toons movie. I watched it until my tape wore out, and then my parents taped it for me again.
