It’s funny how I think cartoons from 10 years before are too old, and cartoons from 10 years after are too new, and everyone else experiences some variation of that depending on when they were born, and that all I’m left with is the feeling of time slipping away from me, like I was wrestling a greased up seal in a tub of oil

    Seriously, the silent cartoons were kinda boring, and once they added color it gave me a headache.

    Betty Boop was peak 'toon.

    Counter-point - Bugs Bunny and the Looney Toons in general were peak cartoon. It was old even when I was a kid (32 now) but I loved it as a kid and I still love it now. Timeless humor.
