Tigger from Winnie the Pooh used to annoy me.

Isn't it because he's the only one, so your chances of getting annoyed by him are slimmer?

I remember waiting in a doctor's office once as a woman read a Winnie-the-Pooh picture book to her grandchild. She kept pronouncing "Tigger" as "tiger." I'm pretty sure that would annoy Tigger.

I know you mean your real name. I think everyone who has posted on this page knows that frustration to some extent. My first name is easy, but I have had all sorts of weird variations on my surname.

Thanks, Rocky. I know that you were joking as well.

I don't actually get annoyed when people mispronounce or misspell my name. Not only am I used to it, but I know it's unusual.

It's not unusual to be loved by anyone
It's not unusual to have fun with anyone.

Reading back through the previous posts, I was reminded of Dorothy Parker's review of "House on Pooh Corner". She did the reviews under the name Constant Reader. Her Review: Tonstant Weader Fwowed up

I quite liked the opening theme song of the Winnie the Pooh cartoon.

"Gotta get up, gotta get going, gonna see a friend of mine..."

I always liked A.A. Milne's original Winnie-the-Pooh books better than the animated Disney version.

I refer to Pooh from the books as True Pooh. Disney's version is Sham Pooh.

I only grew up with the Disney version of the franchise. I really liked it when I was a kid.

We all tend to have fond memories of what we liked as a child. WHen I was a kid, I loved the show Bewitched. Watching it as an adult, I can see the misogyny in it.

In the Philippines, we have a joke that some macho-acting men are really "under" - under their wives' skirts. Henpecked, in reality.

As we've discussed before, Quis, while Darrin may have been a misogynist, I always saw Samantha as an early feminist. She adopted the conventional woman's role, but did so because she chose to do so. She could have walked (or, more likely teleported) away at any time.

The recent remake - about a real witch playing the character of Samantha - certainly also made her a strong character.

I thought that movie was too confusing. Plus I find Will Ferrell unfunny.

I also don't like embarrassment humor. Where someone is doing something that makes people feel awkward.

MST3 (Mystery Science Theater 3000) had some very witty humor.
