Today's generations caught onto the lie that "rib played notes" are inconsistent which ruins the immersion.

Doug : In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something? Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Homer : I'll field that one. Let me ask you a question. Why would a grown man whose shirt says "Genius at Work" spend all of his time watching a children's cartoon show?

[embarrassed pause]

Doug : I withdraw my question.

Xylophones appropriate skeleton music, That's THEIR music, stop stealing from their culture!

A woke moralist broke into my home and kicked my dog and that's why I don't believe in public healthcare or trains.

The question is, who's responsible?

The deep state? Karen? Vaccines? Maybe their bones don't ring because of 5g?!

Isn't the deep state responsible for the latter 2 anyway?

I don't even know what they mean.

Well, tell me this: when's the last time you saw a skeleton playing its ribs like a xylophone in today's woke, glued to our screens culture?

To be fair a lot of stuff got cut down from cartoons and other media like games in order to appeal to the Chinese market.

Doing that is the opposite of woke, but it's been a real trend.

It's okay, neither do they.

Would economic fourm doesn't want skeletons to own the means to produce their own music.
