That’s 'cause they don’t exist. There should be enough demand for an Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator, though.
As a rule, having a smoking, cannonball sized hole punched in your torso is permanent and fatal IRL; it doesn’t vanish by the next scene.
Real people who are repeatedly shot usually notice they’ve been hit without drinking a glass of water and having water spurt out of the holes.
A male rabbit dressed as a woman isn’t going to fool anybody.
The results of drinking something that dissolves a spoon in seconds is much less gruesome in cartoons.
I’m always kinda annoyed that I can’t just string a patchwork, very modestly-sized gas bag on top of a mostly unmodified Caravel and use it to fly around the world, adventuring.

Damn, when I read this too quickly, for a moment I thought you were LOUNE.
Sorry.

Well, that depends… Did ya get that thing I sent ya? 
It’s a Harvey Birdman reference, more specifically referring to Peter Potamus… I haven’t actually sent you anything, AFAIK!

Thankfully, you don’t see people walking around fully dressed from the waist up, and absolutely nothing from the waist down. (Big white, puffy, gloves are optional)

You don’t think that would be a valid fashion choice for Kate Winslet, Keira Knightley, or Alyson Hannigan?

- Evil lairs. I can’t say I’ve ever enountered one in person, but they’re all over in Toonland. I wonder if they get their own section in the Want Ads?

Meditate upon the Wisdom of Kim Possible, Grasshopper–
And I have met RL people with annoying sidekicks.
But I have never met a “wacky neighbor”. And I don’t want to. :eek:

That’s because the ACME Corporation only does business on Earth. If you’re looking for Explosive Space Modulators, you’re going to have to contact Mars.

Knockyerself out (with a big mallet)
I was going to say “the Scooby-Doo scamble”-- you know, where people/animals run in place for a moment before gaining the traction to go forward?
But I have dogs and hardwood floors, so I can testify that this one actually happens.
Also, I have yet to come across a giant rubber band capable of launching me if I would attatch it to a slingshot-shaped post.
Mouse holes are not attractive, dome shaped entries which are easily visable from any spot in the room.

Check out the username of the poster you were responding to.
Actually, sometimes pianos did fall on you, in New York and places like that at least, I guess, because wouldn’t they have to winch them up through the window? I’d imagine that’s where that comes from, isn’t it? (Anvils, no idea.)
I am always disappointed when I wake up and that classical symphony that says “Morning” isn’t playing. (Debussy? I forget.)

So Elmer Fudd meets this 5-foot tall, english-speaking rabbit, and he wants to kill it. Really, he should feature that guy in some sort of travelling show.
I suppose I won’t have to spell out exactly the differences between my animated world and my real world?

Ah, but remember what happened to that guy who discovered the singing frog?

The Mythbusters actually tested that one IRL and managed to bust it (unsurprisingly, although it was fun to watch them build a giant slingshot and test it).
