I still wonder if it was Jane or Sheila and Joe who sold it to the used book store.

I heard that Sheila & Joe would go around putting labels and notes in all sorts of things, just to ruin Jane's reputation.

The frontman of Jane's Addiction, Perry Farrell, founded the music festival Lollapalooza.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

Being on a bouncy castle is also fun. But cooking on a bouncy castle is a dangerous hazard. It's a complicated world.

Unless you are Bouncing Boy, in which case you can bounce very safely.

Did you know that they use to bounce newborn baby to start them to cry (and breath)? Hence the term bouncing baby boy.

If the Legion cartoon had been made in the late 80s/early 90s instead of the mid-2000s, and if it had used the Baxter Era as its template, I'd have loved to have heard the great voice actor Frank Welker doing double duty as Bouncing Boy and Quislet, the same way that Welker did double duty on The Real Ghostbusters as both Ray Stantz and Slimer.

Bouncing Boy and Quislet would have made an entertaining pair.

Indeed, Ibby. Just to hear Chuck sounding like Ray Stantz (or Fred from Scooby-Doo, whom Welker also played) or to hear Welker say, "Hoo boy, what fun! Go go go!", in his love-it-or-hate-it androgynous childlike voice, would have been pure pleasure for me.

Quislet is truly a genderless character. Yet as a cis-male, I think of him as male

I also often think of Gates as male. I think this was confirmed when the Legion visited Vyrga.

Well, out the four most-well-known characters that Welker did The Androgynous Voice for -- Slimer from Real Ghostbusters, Scooter from Gobots, Wheelie from Transformers, and Uni from Dungeons & Dragons -- the first three are all defined as male, with only Uni being defined as female (oh yes, she was, don't anybody argue with me -- the kids always referred to Uni with female pronouns. So there.)
As for Gates, he is definitely male in my view. In fact, yet another Ghostbusters connection -- I "hear" Gates as sounding like Bill Murray (or the late Lorenzo Music impersonating Bill Murray as Peter Venkman in Real Ghostbusters.)
