Yes. A+ parenting. There's hope for the world yet.

I remember as a kid, I wanted to be the white ranger, but my mom bought me pink

I remember hating it so much omg. I just wanted to be Tommy because he was the coolest.

*um excuse me JASON was the coolest

FALSE

Tommy had that sweet anti-hero thing going for him

YOUR FACE IS FALSE

Until he didn't anymore MY FACE IS THE TRUEST THING YOU'VE EVER SEEN

Jason was a motherfucking HERO

Also a boyscout

always doing what's right even when it meant hurting himself

Gross

FORGIVING TOMMY when there was no reason

JASON IS THE TRUE CHAMP

TOMMY WAS BADASS THEY FORGAVE HIM BECAUSE HE'S BADASS AND CAN DO WHAT HE WANTS

Ash: Rooting for the anti-hero since 1988

I almost punched someone at work for telling me Raphael was a prick because he had a bad attitude

I was like how dare you

He is the most glorious prick there is

Well I can't argue with that

I think I just always liked the red characters

I too have a penchant for red characters. Except in Power Rangers, apparently.

well Tommy was red too

you could lean on that

Well, I guess I could, but I stopped liking him when he became the red ranger

He got all goody-two-shoes and it was lame

I hated the long hair

/shallow

I think that's actually when I stopped watching Power Rangers alltogether

I was mad because Tommy became the red ranger and wasn't cool anymore XD

I hardly even remember what he looked like without his suit on

I do vaguely remember a ponytail, though

I HAVE SO MUCH HATE IN MY HEART FOR THIS LOOK

LOL he's pretty ugly

Green Ranger Tommy is the only Tommy

I loved him as green and white

I really don't think I was paying attention to what his face looked like

man I didn't know you had so many power ranger feelings

Dude Power Rangers was awesome

EVERY NYCC Jason Frank does a panel and it's always ass early in the morning and I never get to see it

WILL YOU TRY TO GO WITH ME TO THE POWER RANGERS PANEL NEXT YEAR ASH

Granted I haven't seen it since I don't even know when

LMAO sure

When did Tommy become red ranger? Because that's the last time I've seen it.

Zeo

so. Three years in?

I mean the actual date

oh

fuck if I know

I can try to date it to myself because it started when I was 10 and those are round numbers

but then I'd be dating myself pretty terribly. XD

Idk. My third grade science project was a bullfrog I caught in my neighbor's pond that I named Tommy

So that'd make me... 7?

So 1995 LMAO

this makes sense I was 13 >>

HA

I was WAY too old to be into Power Rangers the way I was into power rangers

XDDD

I must've stopped watching it when I was 8

like. the 6th graders made fun of me like crazy BUT THEN WHEN I WAS BABYSITTING? I was a champ

"Adam? Adam, what's wrong?"
"I'm a frog."

THAT'S ALL I'D NEED TO REFERENCE and I was IN

LOL

That's adorable

I think I moved on to Batman the Animated Series and SPIDER-MAN oh man did I love Spider-Man

Back when the hyphen was a thing

idk if the hyphen is still a thing

the hypneh is supposed to be a thing but we're in a much lazier time now

*hyphem

UGH FUCK YOU TYPING

lmao

You'll get it someday

Also Digimon. I remember I had a mighty love for Digimon.

I did as well

even though I was in college

LOL

You don't have to judge me I judge myself

It's mutual judging

And dude, this is coming for the girl who likes turtles

I'm in literally no position to judge anyone

Another thing that happened while I as ignoring Plurk:

I found a comic shop downtown that sold me Mint condition TMNT trades for retail price

And I mean like, retail price back in '92

I almost cried and just threw extra money at him

D:

It's this little old man who has a shop in the ghetto

He obviously lives upstairs and has this creaky old cat that sleeps in a box behind the counter

And he was SO NICE and sweet and the shop was FANTASTIC

I paid $11 for a book that's worth $50

And he was just like "Well, I've had them around for so long. I'm just glad you're taking them."

dude you can't get a NEW trade for $11

I KNOW

He's looking to see if he has any Mirage books in his back room (that's PILED to the ceiling)

And I'm sure he'd sell them to me for retail, too god

The place is called Comicbook Heaven and that's pretty legit

8O

That neighborhood's seedy as hell, though

I don't usually get nervous in bad neighborhoods, but that place looked like the Apocalypse had already come and gone

Though I think that little old man might actually be a wizard so I think he'll be okay
