Sometimes even I don't get me

I was thinking about Voltron today. Okay, I want to preface this by saying that I gave up cartoons in my childhood and really have not returned to them less once when I decided to get a lazy hobby. That lazy pastime was comic book reading. The problem with comic reading me is that I did not have a story in mind and I read really fast. I would have needed about 15 comics a week to make it worth while. It was an impossible idea. I was already broke from the bar. I instead took up smoking for the second time. It fit with the bar. But now I quit. Ahh the ups and downs...moving on.

I was thinking about Voltron today and how I used to race home after school to watch it. Actually I raced home to watch both Voltron and Tranzor Z. I learned two things from those shows I would like to share.

Boobs on robots or on women are deadly - On Tranzor Z, the female robot had missile breasts. They were effective when battling male robots. The same goes for humans. Human women's breasts can be very dangerous for the males of the species. Even when you befriend their master they are killers.

Princess Sven - If your name is Sven and you are skinny and wear a pretty blue jumpsuit and control the Blue (Water) Lion you may be a princess and will get replaced by a female one soon. Apparently Voltron did not value diversity except in lions.

Anyway that is what goes through my head when referencing the Chicago Manual of Vile.
