Polish government to probe if Teletubbies are gay

[Malthus]

I sure as heck hope the Teletubbies are gay.

You wouldn’t want the little bastards breeding all over the place, would you? Before long we’d be knee-deep in incomprehensible ambulatory TV sets.

I just happened to run across the teletubbies when I was flipping through channels and you know what? They’re all gay. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

They are also exceedingly mind-numbingly stupor-inducingly dull. I’m sure I lost some IQ points. I don’t have any problem with them being gay but I really don’t think it’s a good idea to expose developing young minds to the utterly boring stupidity of them.

Yes, but watch them while stoned, and you’ll think the opposite.

A lot of things that very young children find fascinating and stimulating are utterly boring and exceedingly mind-numbingly stupor-inducingly dull to the intelligent adult mind. I tend to lose interest after about the five-gazillionth round of fucking “Peekaboo”, too, but most rug rats are still deeply into it at that point.

While I was no fan of Mr. Falwell, I never was able understand the big stink he raised. The first time I heard that Tinky Winkle was gay (or some other Teletubbie character) was in an issue of TV Guide. About two-three weeks later, Jerry makes his pronouncement and the there’s a big stink that this is just another bigoted, homophobic statement on Jerry’s part. I kept wondering when someone would bring up the reference to TV Guide (or the original source anyway), and at least give some context that he wasn’t saying this in a total vacuum. I don’t recall any forthcoming.

She may regret it after seeing who jumped on the bandwagon, but it was in fact our own Eve Golden who first outed Tinky Winky. She used to write her “Bottom Shelf” column for Movieline magazine where she reviewed unusual videos. One of them was an early teletubbie video back before they became well known. Eve commented on how strange they were and also pointed out that one of them seemed to possess a surprising number of stereotypically gay characteristics.

I’ll save Poland 30 million dollars. YES, THEY ARE GAY.

Please send Polish government subsidy to:

I’m sorry, but my research clearly indicates that they are not. The obvious solution here is a 100 million dollar grant to both of us to resolve this discrepency. The Polish government can contact me through my email address at this site for details on wiring the grant money to my research facility in the Cayman Islands.

There are television sets in Poland?

And now there are ambulatory televisions sets on television sets in Poland?

And the ambulatory television sets on television sets in Poland are gay?

Maybe we should just go back to the good old days, when people in Poland didn’t have television sets, and camping opportunities abounded for pink triangles.

I hope the EU takes note of what Poland is up to with respect to repression of gays.
