So I was thinking about my last post in the quotes thread. Maybe it's time for me to open up or something.
So here's my thread, fire away.

I've been wondering when you would do this. ;D
When did you first come to find South Park? Did you watch it from the beginning?
Same question, except for Kim Possible.

I believe I discovered South Park in my freshman year of high school, no better time I'd say. I walked into class one day and everybody was psyched because it was the night that Cartman's father was to be revealed. I had no idea what they were talking about but I was curious. So I watched Part II and liked it, then later on I saw "An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig" and was hooked.
For Kim Possible, I went on a trip to Disneyland 2002. One day outside the ticket gate I spotted a poster for the show. I took one look at Kim and thought, "She looks just plain cool." Though I left the park a die-hard Lilo & Stitch fan, that was the choice I made. But I'm proud to say I also discovered Kim Possible at Disneyland, so I somewhat feel connected to it like fate.

Great stories, manic. Mine related to finding Kp and SP are more like, it happened to be on TV and I watched. Ironically, my first episode of SP were the Cartman's father episodes as well. I was closer to the boys in age back then.
Top ten favorite episodes of South Park (episodes part of a story arc, I.E. part 1, part 2 episodes count as one)?

I am manicspike most forums, and just Jason when hanging out offline.
My quest? Well at the moment I'd say to make something of myself. To create something that not only makes me happy, but makes others happy, and heal. Apparently my name means "Healer", so I take that to heart.

What is your favorite color? lulz... I had to do what Alyssa was leading to. I could tell that was Monty Python-ness. Do you like those movies? Also... in case you missed this one (it happens to the best of us) Great stories, manic. Mine related to finding Kp and SP are more like, it happened to be on TV and I watched. Ironically, my first episode of SP were the Cartman's father episodes as well. I was closer to the boys in age back then.

Favorite eps? Hmm let's see. Hard to choose but Season 2 & 3 I like alot. So there's some from that period.
10. Cartman's Mom is still a Dirty S*** Part II (My first ep)
9. An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig (My second ep)
8. Clubhouses (Fat Abbot)
7. Prehistoic Ice Man (the first ep of 1999 I think so in a way it made me know that I wanted to keep watching)
6. Merry Christmas Charlie Manson (The It's A Wonderful Life scene on TV always cracks me up)
5. Rainforest Schmainforest (I like this ep and most of Season 3 because Bigger Longer & Uncut was on the horizon)
4. Sexual Harrassment Panda (Skeeter is just so funny)
3. Chinpokomon (I actually Pokemon a try at one point, but didn't stick with it, and the way the obsession is satarized is priceless, and Alabama Man is the funniest advertisement ever)
2. Child Abduction Is Not Funny (This ep was playing in the background and my grandfather actually enjoyed it. He loves the chinaman)
1. The Imaginationland Trilogy (I love animation, when I first started watching the show I guess I was looking for something more hardcore and not so kiddy. But this managed to balance the two so nicely. Anybody who loves animation needs to hear Kyle's speech.

I didn't miss it, it just took some time to type all that out. I suppose my favorite color is green, it's a peaceful color, like the forest.

^^ Sorry about that. I should have figured it would take a long time. Chinpokomon makes me cry with laughter. Kyle's remark about one of the advertisements (I think Alabama Man) as "Liberace Gay" makes me laugh so hard. I once did an impression of the Japanese woman in that episode "Try to bomb the harba!" to my cousin once and my grandma cracked up when she heard that. My grandma has only seen two episodes actually, which were my first episodes. I've been tempted to show her some more episodes (particularly Trapped in the Closet because she doesn't like Tom Cruise either!) My mum thought Kenny was a girl. LOL. Funny thing is, my cousin (who is now 18) who saw South Park with me my first time actually watches and enjoys the show too. I love that Chinese man as well. He rocks. He is amusing. Rank the Christmas episodes in order from most favorite to least favorite?

Hmm okay.
Woodland Critter Christmas (So disturbing, but first time watching it had it me so confused I had no idea where it would take you next. I described the ep as "one big rollercoaster ride" after seeing it.
Merry Christmas Charlie Manson (Needing another reason to mention, I'll say I enjoy Kyle standing up for his belief in Mr. Hankey)
A Very Crappy Christmas (I like the history lesson on the show as well as the Charlie Brown scenes. And of course this ep reminds me of when I used to watch "Twas The Night Before Christmas" because they honor the song in the ep.
Red Sleigh Down (I guess I'll borrow your line and say I also enjoy Jesus packing)
Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo (A classic ep simply for Cartman's song about Kyle's mom)
It's Christmas in Canada (Can't really get into this one, only the ending makes me feel good with the surpise guest)
Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics (I have no problem with musical eps. I'd rather see a story driven ep)
I think that's all of them.

Anytime Jesus appears I love it. I love his surprise appearance in Fantastic Easter Special. I love that episode too much. You would think Kyle would have a crisis of faith given the number of times he's seen Jesus do all his amazing things. But, he doesn't. Thoughts on that? Favorite characters on the show? Least favorite characters on the show? LOL. yeah, I'm prolly going to ask a lot of South Park related questions. I just enjoy discussing the show with other people.

It never really crossed my mind. So many crazy things happen to the boys I feel that they've just grown accustomed to it.
Favorite characters-
Stan (the voice of reason in a town full of idiotic adults)
Kyle (the backup voice of reason in a town full of idiotic adults)
Butters- (I love his innocence, but he gets shat on time after time)
Chef (Don't we all wish our cafeteria chef would bust out a song about making love to a white woman?)
Skeeter (He don't take kindly to...whatever)
Randy Marsh (I thought this was America!)
Fat Abbot (A TV character but hysterical none the less)
The Goth Kids (Simply awesome)
Paris Hilton (The real one I hate, but the one featured on the show is just priceless)
Woodland Critters (Dude.....)
Mel Gibson (He's so wacky)
Tuong Lu Kim (Stupid Mongolians!)
Towelie (No I don't wanna do that Towelie, but you're cool anyway)
Timmy (Livin' A Lie)
Al Gore (Super Serial)
Vanity (From Freak Strike)
Least favorite characters:
I can put up with alot actually. So my choice isn't really a character, more of a persona. I'm talking about Cartman's disguise as a "mentally handicapped" person. It really offended me.

^^ Amen to Cartman's mentally handicapped disguise. I hate that episode in general. Even Kyle was like, "Dude, if you do this, I really think you're going to hell and I don't want that to happen to you." Well, not in those words.
Have you ever shipped anybody on the show?

Oh. I'm probably just extremely girly like that. Ever randomly compared your favorite shows?

Don't have any plans for Spring Break, but maybe something will happen, you never know.
Don't think I've ever compared any shows. I may have said something about comparing Cartman to Dr. Cox, or maybe you said it.

I think that was me. I know I've compared Kyle to Kim in the past. Both redheads, both wear green a lot, and more.
Ever yelled at the tv?

I'm sure I have. I may have done it once when I saw an airing of the scene of Cartman's mentally handicapped disguise. Cursing and giving Eric the finger.
