Sir Topham Hat is an asshole.

What is this man's carbon footprint? Seriously. His primary method of transportation is a fucking train. Not just a single train, but an entire fleet of trains. Has anyone told this man about non-renewable energy sources and melting ice caps and shit? I'm not a treehugger or anything, but someone needs to get this guy a copy of An Inconvenient Truth.

I saw an episode once where he had one of the trains haul a tub of ice cream from one end of the island to the other. Ice cream! How much fucking ice cream do you need, that it needs to be transported by train?! Maybe if he'd walk somewhere for once in his life, he wouldn't be eating so much ice cream. Fat fuck.

What the fuck is a uniqua?

I get the penguin. I get the moose. The kangaroo. Even the fat hippo chick. Poor girl. Of all the animals in the world, they make her a hippo. Must do wonders for her self esteem.

Anyhow, what's up with the pink bitch?

I'm too lazy to google it. I would rather write at length about my consternation at trying to figure out if she was some sort of slug creature, but ruled that out because a slug should realistically be tiny compared to the other characters, ignoring the fact that the moose is the same size as the penguin. Maybe it's a baby moose? Who knows? She's definitely not a slug though.

And what's up with the overalls? I find the show's inconsistent treatment of wardrobe highly troubling. Tasha gets a nice little dress, despite her weight problem. Uniqua gets overalls. Poor little Pablo is completely naked, save for a dinky little tie, like some third-rate Chippendale's dancer. Stay classy, Pablo. The other boys on the show at least get t-shirts, though their lack of pants is disturbing. Have they no embarassing boy-bits to keep covered up? The girls on the show are modestly dressed, but the boys are forced to cavort around exposing their moose-parts and kangaroo-bits? I'll tell you what that is. Sexism. Outright sexism.
