To clear up the "homosexuality" of Ren and Stimpy:
Remember, Ren & Stimpy is a "situational" cartoon. None of the episodes have anything to do with each other. Ren & Stimpy have been many things: Nature Show hosts, Space Explorers, Fishing Show Hosts, Trailer Trash, Meat Wagon venders, and many more. With every new episode they are playing a different role. In "Onward and Upward", they were playing, so to speak, a homosexual couple trying to move up in life. That was the joke. I found it too funny to be offended. In the next episode, Ren is smoking a joint and talking about some girl's skirt. So they are only gay in some episodes and straight in others. You never really know Ren & Stimpy because they are never the same in any episode except that Stimpy is the retard and Ren is the *beep*...
By the way, a lot of people have been saying that they were gay all the time and that the episodes that John K directed showed "hints" of this. Untrue. Just about all of the episodes that show Ren & Stimpy (yes, Stimpy too) being strait were directed (and a lot written) by John K. The only ones I've seen with homosexual references were directed (and some written) by Bob Camp after John K was fired (ex: The episode were Ren turns old and "dies"). John K probably just wanted to play on that for a few of the new episodes. Either way, its still a funny show and I still enjoy the classics as well...
