So Sorry That Nickelodean Made You Mad

[kpete]

During the airing of PawPatrol on Nickelodeon this popped up. Not only did both of my little ones start crying because they don’t know why the one show I let the watch in the morning was not on but @Nickelodeon you pissed this Mom off! Don’t drag my toddlers into this!

1. Bots have children?

[LAS14]

2. I applaud their intentions, but it seems misguided...

...to interrupt the fun of little people too young to even read the message, never mind understand it.

[whathehell]

8. I'd have to agree...Know your audience. n/t

[LanternWaste]

10. The station's demographics targets the 2-17 age range

The station's demographics targets the 2-17 age range which certainly indicates a rather wide range of "little people".

Seems if they're young enough to get gunned down in school, a 17-minute blackout is at its worst, merely benign, rather than "misguided," as those too young would simply see a dark screen.

I know, I know... a dark screen: "the horror.... the horror."

18. Tell that to the parents of the little children from Sandy Hook

She could have read for them or let them watch a movie.

Fugg that shit.

[rufus dog]

30. THIS

FUCK THEM! She had a 17 fucking minute disruption in her life because Nickelodeon decided to support a cause that directly impacts their audience.

As compared to those 7,000 mothers, fathers, friends, teachers, and family members of students killed in schools in the last 6 years.
Each and every one of them would give much more to have a chance to be with the kid as compared to 17 MOTHER FUCKING MINUTES!

I fucking don't give a wet fart, a fucking turdette, a fucking shit, about her 'inconvenience' as compared to the others.

[malaise]

44. Absofuckinglutely correct

[obamanut2012]

42. wrong

[ChubbyStar]

3. Mom couldn't figure out what to do with no TV for 17 minutes?

Mom has some growing up to do.

[ornotna]

9. That's it in a nutshell

She was forced to engage her children and wasn't ready for that. Probably dragged her away from Facebook.

[ChubbyStar]

11. Where I'm sure she loves to post photos of her kids and wonderful marriage

But shit, the day goes to hell if you can't park those kids in front of the tube.

[YessirAtsaFact]

12. Mom was looking forward to a break

Apparently that’s the only tv she lets them watch in the morning.

I imagine she had been busy since the little ones woke up (at the crack of dawn) and this show lets her sit down for a few minutes.

I would not have been happy with that situation, especially if I wasn’t expecting it.

[Aristus]

16. Wow. Seventeen whole minutes. How the hell did she survive that?

[ChubbyStar]

25. When my day wasn't going to plan I would throw jammies in the dryer for about 5 minutes

Then tell the kids LOOK WE HAVE FRESH BAKED, bundle them in the warm jammies and read to them. They fucking loved it, much better than PawPals or whatever this woman was yammering about.

[Aristus]

27. Sounds like an excellent response to the unexpected.

Your kids seem to have a great parent.

[ChubbyStar]

28. To this very day when my adult kids visit they still asked for fresh baked jammies

We sit around drinking and playing cards after but the memory lingers......

[Kirk Lover]

20. And that's why you always have a back up plan. This complaint of hers is so selfish...she has the

luxury to complain about this bullshit while HER CHILDREN are sitting alive and well right there. Really really selfish.

[TheBlackAdder]

17. Perhaps she could use mother's little helper: Cough Syrup with Codine.

[Codeine]

32. Dont drag me into this mess!

[malaise]

45. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

You win the thread

[malaise]

19. We have a restaurant in New Kingston and when Obama was here in 2015

the street was closed for three hours. These greedy assholes own several other branches across the island but they chose to bawl about their NK business being closed for three hours.
We haven't spent a freaking penny there since and will never ever buy food from them.

[gratuitous]

4. That's so Raven!

And the "blunt" address is just the maraschino cherry on this shit sundae of a tweet.

[ProudLib72]

31. I noticed that, too

"Raven" or "Raving" patriot. "Cheech blunt". This is what a Russian troll looks like.

[Me.]

5. Hey Thanks

For letting all of us know the wonderful thing Nickelodeon did.

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. BRAVO no age is too young to learn from this

[trixie2]

13. Bravo to your post

[Fullduplexxx]

7. Why not let them know what they'll be walking into

[0rganism]

14. personally i never forgave them for cancelling Ren & Stimpy

even if the later episodes were kinda trash, i haven't seen anything that can compete head-on with the sheer oddball-comedic power of powerhouses like Stimpy's Invention or Space Madness.

[Different Drummer]

36. I feel the same way! n/t

[lame54]

15. They're pissed because you only let them watch one show

[Different Drummer]

37. This. n/t

[Kirk Lover]

21. What a selfish person she is. Complaining about this BULLSHIT whilst her children are alive and

well in front of her. I don't see one moment where she is reflecting on what the 17 minute break is supposed to mean and what it stands for. What a selfish and short sighted woman she is.

[GallopingGhost]

22. This young mother's

toddlers are already "into this."

They might be safely parked in front of the TV set for now, but it won't be long before they are in a school classroom. This involves everyone, like it or not.

[Yavin4]

23. You would think that a mom would be more concerned with gun violence in schools

than a TV show not being on, but it's this kind of political apathy that the NRA relies on.

[YessirAtsaFact]

24. I dont see why this has upset so many here

Sorry, I’m not going to hate on this lady. I don’t see selfishness, I see the exhaustion that comes with young children.

I don’t know for sure but strongly suspect that she is at home alone with two toddlers and the 10:00 Nick show is her break time, maybe her first break since whenever the little ones woke up, usually very early.

It’s only 17 minutes, yes, but that’s a long time when you’re exhausted and two kids are having a meltdown.

✌️ peace out

[struggle4progress]

26. Why not just let the tots play with the family uzis for a few minutes?

[Different Drummer]

38. ...

[MaryMagdaline]

29. hmm I was interrupted a few times as a child: "We interrupt this program to bring you this special

announcement"
death of JFK (age 4)
death of MLK (age 9)
death of RLK (age 9)
attempted Ford assassination (age 17?)

80's kids were interrupted:
Reagan being shot
Challenger going down

Millennials:
911

I am sure that a parent can help them find something to do while 17 other children are being honored.

[dflprincess]

33. And for JFK (I was 10)

We were interrupted for neatly 4 days of continuous coverage. No Saturday morning shows, no Disney on Sunday night and I don't recall anyone being upset by those shows not being on.

[MaryMagdaline]

40. Common decency

This woman cares nothing about other people's children, and she is training her own children to care even less

[Kirk Lover]

34. It really seems like a troll account. n/t

[GoCubsGo]

35. Awwwww!!!! Did they cut into your Twitter time?

Poor, poor brain-washed Comrade cheechablunt was upset that she had to spend 17 minutes watching her kids, rather than engaging in her daily Twitter retweet circle-jerk with Julian Assange and all the other usual trolls. Boo fucking hoo.

[Different Drummer]

39. This retweet tells me all I need to know about her.

Can't believe someone impregnated her...twice.

High school students all around the country stood in support of the Second Amendment. Unlike their misinformed Marxist truant peers who marched to take away YOUR RIGHTS!

41. "Your show will start late today, Kids. Who can find the most lost coins in the furniture?"

My favorite line from that Goldie Hawn movie, Deceived, is when she asks parents, "Isn't anyone in charge around here?"

The 17 minutes can be explained when they're older, but she'll also have to explain her dumbass tweet... Betcha this isn't her only one, either.

[obamanut2012]

43. MTV & BET also did this

Good for all of them!
