#I like animated family shows so therefore I must clearly never watch aaaaaaanything else

[renthony]

I think one of the weirdest things I encounter on a regular basis is the people who think that, because I am an avid animation nerd and most of my favorite media is animated, I must therefore literally never engage with adult media. Even when they recognize that animation isn't just for kids, they fixate on my enjoyment of whatever random kids' show they happen to have some problem with. (And tbh it's usually Steven Universe, because everybody still loves being a turd about that one for some goddamn reason.)

I don't even bother trying to correct these people anymore. There's no point in me trying to prove anything to people whose idea of an insult is "you care about the quality of media being presented to children."

It is really funny when people try to pull the "you only like kid shows!" argument on me when I've been watching a lot of horror lately, though. Like, ah, yes, you got me. I only watch kid shows, such as the fun and wholesome adventures of Chucky the Killer Doll.
