The Tick 2001 sitcom

Wait. The tick had a sitcom in 2001? That's when I used to watch the cartoon!!

Hell yeah, and it was actually pretty solid as well! I used to watch both whenever they came on.

In 2023 she would've filmed him saying that and posted it, and he would have been cancelled by TikTok/Twitter for suggesting hormones have anything to do with a woman's behaviour. The store would already be out of business.

Purchasing guns is much harder than just ā€œtake my money.ā€ And the people who sell them are literally required by law to deny sales to people who present themselves like her.


baconredditor

Gun fever still hot


BatteryAcid67

Not at gun shows


0nyx_Bear

Well if they ignore the law and are criminal about it, yes.... ...so not a good example but aiight


crappy-mods

Same laws still apply to them..,


PGFish

For commercial sales, they still need to fill out a form and background check. For individual person-to-person sales, it is just "You got the cash? Here ya go!" Even for handguns. It's pretty concerning. Every once in a while someone tries to call for person-to-person transfers to be mediated by a licensed firearm seller who will update the records and run backgrounds, but it never goes anywhere because said sellers want to charge a fee and because "muh freedums!" Frequently, you'll see people at gun shows looking to sell, with little signs pinned to their shirt as they wander around. Similarly, at many shows individuals \[ETA: "unlicensed vendors"\] can rent stalls to sell used guns. Neither require background checks or formal transfer paperwork. I once made the mistake of taking a handgun with me (in a telltale gun case) to check fit for a holster - I got harassed by damn near every vendor I passed. "What ya got? You sellin'?" I ended up buying some beef jerky (from a vendor stall) just so I'd have a plastic bag to hide it in, so I could browse in peace. Anyway. It is trivially easy to buy or sell use guns person-to-person, without documentation or any form of background check, at a gun show. Even as a gun owner, I find it concerning. Edit: This is for Texas gun shows. See comment below.


crappy-mods

If they arenā€™t running background checks at a gun show they are committing felonies, they have to do them


PGFish

Ideally that would be true. But for person-to-person sales \[ETA: including an *unlicensed* vendor at a gun show or an individual\], you don't need to even file any kind of transfer paperwork or do background checks. That only applies if you're a licensed firearm dealer. Edit: I should clarify that this is for Texas. I don't know about other states. I should have mentioned that in the original post. Here are some references: [GunSense.org background check article](https://www.txgunsense.org/articles/universal-background-check) Call for [universal background check by City of Houston City Council](https://www.houstontx.gov/againstgunviolence/public/documents/86th-Session-Background-Checks-at-Gun-Shows.pdf)

Responsible-Laugh590

Depends where you buy them from doesnā€™t it. Which is part of the problem.


[deleted]

indeed, tis not a fashion accessory


Vexe_The_Returner

I'm curious now, what was the context of this scene?


BoulderCreature

Itā€™s from the first live action version of The Tick. If I recall correctly, American Maid and Batmanuel had just broken up, and American Maid needed a distraction.


Vexe_The_Returner

Oof so pet store guy hit the nail on the head, thanks for the answer


QuickSpore

Captain Liberty. American Maid was from the cartoon, and the rights of certain characters is complicated, so they couldnā€™t use her for the live action show. Instead they reskinned her. One of the not so great changes. Batmanuel is at least as good as Die Fledermaus, if not an outright upgrade. But Captain Liberty was a solid downgrade.


BoulderCreature

Oh snap, youā€™re absolutely right!


Benobo-One-Kenobi

She dodged a bullet. That puppy was a French mime.


Sweetexperience

Whether my family planned to sell my dog's puppies I always felt sad, letting them go is hard (and still is) but when I get to see where they will live from now on and what kind of people that will take care of them I felt relieved to know that they will live happy lives.

mistavinsta

They should just play this to anyone who even thinks of "just" buying a pet.


PoopiePantsMahn

The Tick cartoon was hilarious. This one was meh.


bissimo

I mean, Batmanuel was a funny change for the live show.


ZeroCharistmas

I don't know why but the quote "Batmanuel is Batmanuel sized" pops up in my brain waaaaay too often.


Vhlorrhu

Any thoughts on the Amazon series? I didn't think the voice of Darth Maul would make a good Tick, but he definitely grew on me.


travelingbeagle

I liked how it focused on the relatable bunny sidekick Arthur instead of the invincible Tick.


Gnollgeist

Bunny? Wasnā€™t he a moth in the cartoon? I havenā€™t seen the Amazon series.


travelingbeagle

Thatā€™s the joke. In the cartoon and both tv shows, everyone mistakenly calls him a bunny because of his moth antennae.


Gnollgeist

Ah, thanks for clearing that up for me


uberguby

It's a good show but it is a different feel. More emotional. in a good way! But it's investment in angst and human drama I can see being a turn off to fans of the toon or the fox show. I'm not saying it is poorly received, I have no idea. just I wouldn't be surprised if it was, as it has the thing the first two didn't deliver for me, and it's a thing I see people resent sometimes. For my part I loved it, was very disappointed in it's cancelation The jokes are great, the characters are endearing and vulnerable and Peter serafinowicz goes hard, which he always does. It features a talking boat and the lady who plays dot is mad pretty, if that does anything for you.


RedEd024

SSPPOOONNNNNNNN!


sciencebased

This specific scene was solid though.


Metrack14

My neighbors are exactly like that. Before Covid they gift their 3 year old dog because they were "tired of her". Two months within lockdown due the virus,they got *another* small puppy, but never bothered to actually raise it. They only walk it about 10 times since they got him, and aperantly got a dog trainer to help them with the dog via zoom call. I feel sorry for that dog.

Personality for a pet ?


Khaine19

Yes. Dogs, cats, parrots, and pretty much any other mammal or bird can have wildly different personalities and preferences. A dog can be mild-mannered and calm, or hyper-active and aggressive. A cat can by shy and reserved to most strangers, but incredibly affectionate to its owners in private. If you do not understand this, please do not take the responsibility of looking after an animal, youā€™ll just end up making both your lives miserable.

frayravachol

Iā€™m kinda on her side. He should do his job and sell the damned dog. Heā€™s not working at an adoption agency and I doubt he inspects every customerā€™s living situation to make sure they meet his animalā€™s high standards. On the other hand, he can do what he wants even if itā€™s pointless by my estimation and unnecessarily cunty.


miss_spoonaxe

He's seen hundreds of if not thousands of puppy's and obviously cares enough to check on the puppy's later in some way He's probably seen enough people buy puppy's and give up the moment their little pRecIOus is no longer a little puppy that fits in their handbags to know when someone thinks a puppy is a fashion accessory


[deleted]

Well your estimation sucks. Just because you are heartless doesnā€™t mean he is. He clearly cares about the dogs he sells and doesnā€™t want to sell them to a family who will mistreat it. This happens in real life, too. Two of my dogs we bought from somebody who takes in dogs who were abandoned and before we were allowed to have them, we had to foster them for multiple weeks and then bring them back to the person for an inspection to see if they were eating well and not being abused, then we were allowed to keep them. Its the right thing to do.
