[2011-Oct-25] Nice subtlety in comic 2408

Post by DocMagnus »

In the last panel of today's comic, the grandmother is holding a porn dvd titled "The Aristocrats." For those familiar with the "Aristocrats" joke, that's a nice bit of incognito humor for you.

The Aristocrats wasn't a Disney movie, I don't think.

I didn't think so either, but I looked it up and it is.

Apologies for posting in the wrong forum, I'm new.

This is what I mean: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_aristocrats

Not a disney movie, a dirty joke.

I wish that joke would stop coming up on this forum.

So is this joke about cats or not?

Re: the comic itself. Is there a joke here or not? I'm not 100% sure.

No, I said the Aristocrats. The Aristocats is, though.
All this confusion for a possible throwaway reference to that crappy excuse for shock-humour.

I thought it was a typo; my bad there.

Excuse me sir, but I am a typographical error and I find your comment extremely offensive. Appalling use of discriminatory epithet! Typo indeed.

I thought that, since the "-rats/-chats" part of the word is covered by another film and it's supposed to be a porno, the name of the film is "the Aristocunts".

That's the joke, Disney has the aristocats but in this future where porn is so ubiquitous that even Disney produces "nice" versions it could be the aristocats, an incredibly filthy joke which is now tame enough for the Disney movie treatment.

What I don't understand is, why is everyone focused on the well known (and comparatively tame) Aristocrat series? For a conservative like that lady, it's startling that she's willing to allow them to watch Fairy Gangbanger, the film controversial for pushing the XG ratings as far as the PIMP (the Pornographic Ideological Moderation Partnership) would allow them to go. Even if it's not the director's cut, it's a bold move on her part.
