MArli: I believe you mean Texe Marrs. I’ve read his books and he does have one called Ravaged by the New Age, where he mentions cartoons with voluptous female drawings and all kinds of stuff. This guy is off the wall. Its probably him. Check him out on the web; he needs to get together with Lyndon LARouche! ---

I just want to know how Satan or anyone else managed to shove that coat hanger upside down into the purple, gay guy’s head. How did you do that without scrambling his brains? Neat trick, that. Amazing that it didn’t fuck up his tummy TV reception… ---

I swear to god, one morning I watched as one teletubby was bent over to do something and another teletubby reached over and tickled his netherparts with a flower. They showed this over and over, as all the teletubbies giggled. I was thinking hmmm, that’s homoeroticism if I ever saw it. And I’ve seen plenty–I used to hang out with a rugby team. I didn’t know they were gendered until this thread, BTW. Anyway, screw children’s products. We’ve got agents of filth and smut right under our roofs. Do you know what your chairs do when you turn out the lights? [http://www.furnitureporn.com/](http://www.furnitureporn.com/) ---

Texe Marrs would be the fruitcake in question. Is anyone else totally creeped out by Barney’s half-closed eyes and incessant toothy grin? I keep waiting for him to bend over and bite off one of those little singing brat’s heads. ---

> [@](#): > > I didn’t know they were gendered until this thread, BTW. Technically, I don’t think they are, but the purple one (Tinky Winky, with the triangle, carries a “magic bag” {koff koff _purse_ koff koff}) and the green one (Dipsy, with the twisted horn, wears a fashionable cowprint top hat) have decidedly male ranged voices, and the yellow one (Laa Laa, with the straight dildo [?], plays with the ball) and the red one (Po, with the circle, uses the scooter) have decidedly female voices. It also appears that Tinky Winky is the oldest, and Po is the “baby” of the group. Anybody know the name of the vacuum cleaner? The show in general is best watched while tripping. Esprix ---

Marli, if Barney ever does do that, I’ll watch his show with considerably more enthusiasm. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/teletubbies-agents-of-satan/22141.md?page=1)
