There has been some debate in Cruft Manor about the appropriateness of Adult Swim cartoons for the girls. For a while we were watching Futurama, but now it is once again disallowed.

Tonight Zoe and I watched the end of a show around 9PM when the following scene took place:

---

DAD hits guide on remote, sees Aqua Teen Hunger Force on and switches to it,
hoping to see the talking french fries, 'cause talking french fries are funny.

ANNOUNCER
... and let's seen what happens when we blow this nun's brains out with a shotgun ...

DAD switches the channel before the shotgun fires.

DAD

Um, I guess that Adult Swim really isn't for kids...

ZOE

Ha-ha-ha-ha! They said "blow this nun's brains out"! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

DAD

Your mother is going to be so mad at me.

ZOE runs to find MOTHER.

ZOE

Ha-ha-ha-ha! They said "blow this nun's brains out"! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

DAD

(attempting not to laugh)

Ha-ha-ha-ha!

ZOE

Ha-ha-ha-ha!

MOTHER shoots flames from her eyes at DAD.

Lesson: Do not switch to Adult Swim while children are present.
