There’s an argument to be made that Rocko’s Modern Life was not for children, but it aired on Nickelodeon in the afternoon, so we watched it. And this is poignant as hell-
R-E-C-Y-C-L-E Recycle!
C-O-N-S-E-R-V-E Conserve!
Don’t you P-O-L-L-U-T-E.
Pollute the rivers, sky, or sea.
Or else you’re gonna get what you deserve
…I still sing it to myself sadly when I read the news sometimes.
Heffer: (singing) Spring cleaning! Spring cleaning!
Rocko: Heff?
Heffer: Hi, Rocko!
Rocko: Why was everyone singing?
Heffer: We just had a song in our hearts.
Rocko: How is it you all know the words? Did you rehearse?
Heffer: Yeah, every Thursday. Didn’t you see the flyers?
I am dashing your hopes by replying! But I want to say you’ve grown up so well and have lots of stuff to be proud of. Maybe things didn’t go the way you hoped, but you did the best you could with what you had and what you knew at the time, and that makes you a good person in my book.

Rocko fought city hall! Rocko fought corporate America! They are big and he is small, Rocko fought city hall.
I also blame this for why my sense of civic duty exists, despite the obviously flawed and ofte. monstrous system I find myself in.

I think it was things like this, honestly, which shaped my sense of humor.
Same here.
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby!
Rocko‽
Mrs. Big head‽
It’s a litttttle risqué, but I watched RML growing up and I turned out okay! Hopefully no one replies to this comment!
