Frida's Boycott Roundup: Armageddon, Facebook and Cartoons!
Gente, here's your weekly list of injustices in the world that warrant your immediate attention and your inconvenient boycott.
1. Armageddon
Why: En Mayo they warned us about The Rapture, last month they warned us about Carmageddon, y, this past week, they warned us about Debtageddon.
But every time el fin del mundo is predicted, nothing happens. The world keeps going, but still, people keep predicting the end of the world and I’m getting tired of it.
So in order to shut up these pinches Debbie Downers I say we boycott ARMAGEDDONS OF ALL KINDS!!!

10 of the Greatest Animated Intros of the '90s
by Matt Jay
Disney films weren't the only animated media going through a renaissance in the 1990s. Animated television never had and never has been better. Or even as good. You may disagree with me, but as a former animation student and animation historian, my favorite era of the medium was the '90s.
What I may miss most from that time was the lost art of the animated series intro. This used to be your pitch for a series to a kid. Kids have short attention spans and you need to capture their imagination in less than a minute. Most shows nowadays just cut together a bunch of clips from the first season and maybe a couple character shots then slap a title card in there.
