Agreed but unfortunately not surprising considering we live in a time where Bugs Bunny is too politically incorrect to be on TV so we watch South Park.

This is the America we have made though. We have built a society of weak people that have no sense of personal responsibility. You spill hot coffee in your lap, it's not your fault. It's McDonalds. Your child decides to glorify PopEye because he smokes a pipe. Sue the movie company. Such a nation of pus*ies.

Just ridiculous. Here's what's next I imagine...
2015 -add 80 lbs to Olive Oyl because her image promotes an eating disorder.
2016 -remove Wimpy's hamburger. It's not healthy as a mainstream diet. Also opens the possibility of offending vegan viewers.
2017 - Jeep the magical creature gets name change as to clarify any confusion of affiliation with the 4x4 automotive manufacture.

WTF.... They gotta be kidding. What the hell is the point in doing a Popeye movie without spinach, anchor tatts, and a pipe? How is he gonna do the "too too" at the end of the theme song? Shit...I used to hate eating spinach until I started watching the Popeye cartoon.

"CBGB's two rules were that a band must move its own equipment and play mostly original songs—that is, no cover bands—although regular bands often played one or two "covers" in set.[13] CBGB's growing reputation drew more and more acts from outside New York City. In 1978 on October 20 and 21, The Police played at CBGB its first American gigs. Meanwhile, CBGB became famed for the Misfits, Television, Patti Smith Group, Mink DeVille, the Dead Boys, the Dictators, the Fleshtones, the Voidoids, the Cramps, the B-52's, Blondie, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, the Shirts, Ramones, and Talking Heads.
