I can believe it.

This entire clip was saturated with Disney channel-style pedophilia: Shirley engages the train [full of men] with an adult confidence as she sits, VERY short skirted, on their laps; and is essentially fondled and given gifts for her pseudo-sultry "Jessica Rabbit" routine

God am I hard...

I am not going to enjoy this week's theme�

Graham Greene is in Hell, strapped to a chair with his eyes clamped open, being forced to watch episodes of Kodomo no Jikan and Chocotto Sister for all of eternity.

Are you saying it's not pedophilic? Or are you just using this opportunity to plug your favorite kiddie anime precum generation tools.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

I'm just sayin

I'm just laughin

CREEPIEST POETV CONVERSATION EVER

No.

A more innocent age? No.

A pedophilic fantasy is what it is.

Is it me or are you commenting an awful lot on this video, Nocturno?

Seriously though... what the fuck are grown men doing, in a train carrying over-sized candy props for on a cross country rail ride?

What's more likely?

They were prepared for a small scale musical number, or they're the "strangers with candy" we hear so much about, prowling the railways for veal?

I believe that everyone who is three starring this video fucks children. In the butt.

Let's see... One, two, three... I've only commented four times. That's not what I'd call a lot.

OH SHIT FIVE!

BUT SEESLY MISTA YALL GOT RIGHT THAT MO INCIN' TIMEZ JUS RYE' SUH, YES SUH YOU DO. I WOHN SUBMIT NO MO UPPITY PAYDOMELIA CLIP NOW, NO SUH I WOHN!!

Baleen hangs hiself on yonda popalar tree', but not beefoh' beatens hiself just so.

Whatever he does I'm sure it doesn't hold a candle to the gag in King Homer.

She became a member of the GOP and was made ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia, among other political appointments. Meanwhile, her on-screen mentor (and Tap dancing legend) Bill "Bojangles" Robinson dies penniless.

I call it 'The Coulter Effect'.

She was also married to John Agar for a while, which is probably really funny for some reason.

Yeah Crispin has turned her into a perverted icon, even though Salvador Dali did it long before him. If you ever get a chance to see Crispin Clover's "What Is It?" he goes into his Shirley Temple deal a bit in a roundabout way. That image of the whip in her cooch is actually a promotional poster of the movie which was only used in the weirder theaters.

Describing any part of Shirley Temple's corpus as a "coochi" is when I officially check out of the thread...

It is absolutely wrong. It was an era with such constricted social mores that the weird shit in the culture came out like this. Of course nobody would acknowledge it. The Old World draws a line between "knowing about bad things silently" and "acknowledging bad things publicly." The latter is sin. We don't have those divisions anymore quite so much, unless you are a child of 1st generation immigrants maybe, or a Republican who sends your child to living doll pageants or something.

Maybe Shirley became a Reagan Republican Ambassador so that she didn't have to acknowledge her fucked up role in society. Oooooooh!

All those men, touching her in pretty much every place they're not supposed to. Yeah, this clip quickly goes from innocent, to discomforting, to downright inappropriate.

By the way, I would worry about anyone who favorites this.

If there's anything that the New World produced in abundance, it's pop culture analysts.

SNORF SNORF so true!
