there wasn't much on TV so I watched cartoons from the 1930s or 1940s (they were in black'n'white and had sound). There was the usual cat-chasing-mouse nonsense. Their places got reversed and the mouse was chasing the cat and they ran past a bird in a cage. The bird did a double-take, exclaimed "well, now I've seen everything!" and proceeded to take out a gun and shoot itself in the head.

THAT shocked me more than anything I had ever seen until my husband dragged me to a Saw movie.

So if the reichwing could stop ragging on more modern forms of entertainment like GTA, Deadpool, or any other action/fantasy movies, that would be great.
