Let's look close at the comic strip,
deconstruct an old Disney clip,
pick something better than Steamboat Willie
making sure it's still damn' silly.
Donald doesn't wear any goddamn' pants!
Hey Walt, ain't that takin' a chance?
Mickey and Minnie eighty years playin' house
ain't even produced an itty-bitty mouse?
One dog talks and the other one don't,
I'm gonna say it if you won't.
It ain't art it don't mean nothin'
no more'n Popeye n' Olive and Bluto
whadda I know, I'm too Goofy for Pluto.
Footnote: sometimes he's Brutus, sometimes he's Bluto, he always has a big black beard.

I don't mean to imply that Popeye,Olive and friend have anything to do with Walt, only that perhaps such things are studied a little too earnestly. What do you think?

What's the difference between the Warner Brothers and Walt Disney?
The Warner Brothers do Daffy Duck, but Walt disnae.

This is true.

Wasn't there a minor outbreak of uncontrolled sexuality at Disneyland in Paris a few years ago? If I recall correctly Mickey got sodomized by Goofy briefly on Youtube.

Hmm, I've never heard him called Bluto. He was always Brutus to me. I much preferred Hanna Barbera to Disney although most of their characters didn't wear trousers either.

The Bluto/Brutus thing, I believe, was due to lawyers - isn't it always?
