I just learnt that Flips was a girl and didn’t identify as “bug.”

Like, I legitimately thought her gender was bug and I’ve been calling her by They/them this entire fucking time!

Yeah, non-binary representation wasn't really a thing back in 1999 :oops2:

Is "bug" even a gender though? :P

I mean. Gender is a construct.

Well, Wikipedia defines it as "range of characteristics pertaining to, and differentiating between, masculinity and femininity" (the word is also used to refer to biological sex, but obviously that's not the concept you're referring to). "Bug" is more like a category of species and unrelated to those.

But I'm hijacking this poor thread, sorry about that. Maybe I did it unconsciously because I don't like the animated series? :P We can always continue this discussion someplace else!

That's alright. Even I don't like the animated series, and I actually like it. :confus:

As discovered by AngeryShed, there are apparently trademarks for 2 unreleased episodes!

- Most Wanted
- The Pancake Shack

These appear to be episodes 5 and 6 respectively. Not sure where My Fair Lac-Mac would fit in?

A new discovery that only adds to the confusion. :mrgreen:

Maybe My Fair Lac-Mac was actually one of those, only it got renamed?

I don't think so since there is a trademark for it too:

Rib also found one named Lacmac II: https://publicrecords.copyright.gov/det ... r_10209652

What do you think of Inspector Grub as a character?

Very interesting! The name of "The Pancake Shack" just makes me think of this one fanart for some reason. :lol:

He's alright, but a little generic personality-wise; maybe it would have been better if Rigatoni and "Razorbeard" had more of a presence in the show after the first episode?

That fanart in turn reminds me of an MTI entry we had a few years ago: viewtopic.php?p=1448764#p1448764 :hap:

Just because you were preoccupied with whether you could, didn't mean that you should. xD

That screenshot is either cursed or I've been corrupted by tumblr fandoms...

Did you also interpret this as Rayman being pregnant and really unhappy about it, and this apparently pleasing the creature behind him greatly?

I think it's probably best to keep these kind of sentences vague because they always, always feel dirty to write and read...

... But yes.
