Wade Garrett said...: South Park is in, what, its eighth season? and its still so funny and . . . vital. Mr. Slave and Big Gay Al are two of my favorite supporting characters, so I really enjoyed last night's episode!; 11/3/05, 8:10 AM
Ann Althouse said...: "South Park" is gay-friendly, but it's not sex-reassignment-surgery friendly. But I'm surprised they didn't put Garrison back to what he was before (as many other things go back to square one after an episode is over). The "South Park" must find it really funny -- the way he's bald and doesn't act the slightest bit womanly. It's quite disturbing!; 11/3/05, 8:38 AM

The view amongst some is that these surgeries are unnecessary and that people should be flexible enough within their minds to feel female while having a penis, or feel male while having a vagina.

And last night's episode was the usual gold standard of funny, the Gov. speech about replacing the usual terms for 'butt-buddy' was especially good.; 11/3/05, 4:50 PM
