I thought either of these two should have called themselves “Master Cylinder”: https://gazettereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/2hype-300x300.jpg

Oh, man, those guys seriously wigged me out. The thing is, people of the age to be scared of Land of the Lost wouldn’t fear cylinder-shaped robots because of 7-Zark-7 from Battle of the Planets and, to a lesser extent, R2-D2 from some movie called Star Wars.

Oh, man! I envy you then (and not in the ‘you get to experience it fresh’ sense).

Here’s MY cartoon based stupid. Tom and Jerry cartoon, they go to the moon, and an alien in the shape of a pencil sharpener gets hold of Tom’s tail and sharpens it, and it’s now a pencil, and he writes “this stinks!” or something on the moon.
So, my 6 year old self, KNOWING FULL WELL WHAT HUMANS ARE MADE OF, go up stairs and try to sharpen my finger. Which won’t fit in the largest hole. I take the cowling off, and stick it in there ANYWAY, and turn the crank, rotary slicing my finger.
WHY? I don’t know. I knew it was stupid as I was doing it, but did it anyway.
EDIT: Well, I just spent 2 hours trying to track that cartoon down. No avail. Maybe NOT T&J then.
Anyone know what the heck it was?

Ok. Some idiot told me not to stick a peanut up my nose when I was 4 or so. So of course I did. Even more fun, I locked myself in the bathroom and totally panicked, forgetting how to get the door open again. They had to rescue me thru the window.

Being a late bloomer baby boomer the thing on TV that scared me the most when I was a small child was the coverage of the Vietnam War and Civil Rights marches. They should some truly graphic stuff on the News back then and none of this ‘warning’ crap they say nowadays.
I always enjoyed Felix and his enemies. They were part of the “Big Brother Show” with Bob Emery.
A super-villain with a cord you can unplug. That was handy!
