Nice contrast to
Joe Cool, although in my mind Joe Cool was a bit of trying too hard, if you know what I mean.
Ouch. I just did a search for "
nerds trying to be cool" and came across this question posted by a nine year old nerd
trying to be cool. Kind of a heart breaker.
Wow. Another search for Peanuts related content just turned up a gem I am hesitant to link for it's bad language but I'll do it anyway.
Dr. Dre Inside the Music that Sucks is a mockumentary from a guy who obviously has a huge axe to grind with Dr. Dre and most of the hip hop community, looks like. By the way, the
Charlie Brown t-shirt that he has Dre wearing is also available on this site.
OK, I've stopped worrying about offending people with that last one, as I just found a spoof Peanuts video that is so offensive I feel guilty having even watched it. Basically someone took a Valentine's Day Peanuts episode and redid it with some of the foulest, worst stereotypical inner city voices possible, all the time cursing like you wouldn't believe. I won't link it, but if you search for "weird Peanuts Charlie Brown" it will pop up.
I guess there is a lot of interest in rewriting Peanuts episodes with offensive themes. I am finding dozens of them. I will link one that is not that bad language-wise and is pretty funny. If you want more there will be a number of them on the side you can check out. Here is
A Charlie Brown Heavy Metal Christmas, which is brilliant in it's surreality.
