    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Keeping Up With The Kardashians:

    Statler: Man, Miss Piggy sure went down a dark path after she and Kermit separated.

    These jokes aren't that good, they don't capture the same energy that Statler and Waldorf have

    @Sir Pentious Yeah, I can understand that. Writing humor isn't my strongest skill when it comes to writing, so I can see how people would find these jokes flat compared to the ones written by The Muppets' writers.

    Written humor can sometimes be hard to convey, I struggle with trying to make stuff actually funny through words. Either way, I do appreciate these jokes, they've been good entertainment for what they are!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Modern Family:

    Waldorf: That's wonderful! A dysfunctional sitcom family with more cracks in their lives than a sidewalk tile! I wonder if there's anything they can't do.
    Statler: Yeah, having a love life that isn't more unhinged than a screen door during Hurricane Katrina.

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Super Mario Odyssey:

    Statler: You know, when I see how that Princess Peach treated Mario and Bowser, I'm glad I left my wife.
    Waldorf: You left your wife?
    Statler: Yeah, I left her at home.

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on The Luck of the Irish (2001):

    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Avengers Endgame:

    Statler: I think you could compare this movie to chewing a stick of gum.
    Waldorf: How so?
    Statler: It starts out tasteful, but the further into it, the blander it becomes.
    Waldorf: Yeah, and once you take a new stick to chew, it won't match the taste of the first one.

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Regular Show:

    Waldorf: I never thought a cartoon could go from 0 to 100 so quickly within 5 minutes of each episode.
    Statler: Well, what do you expect? When you let The Muppets write an animated series, you can expect anything but regular.

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Sonic and the Secret Rings:

    Waldorf: What kind of Sonic game was that?

    Waldorf: A medium game?
    Statler: Yes, it wasn't rare, and it certainly wasn't well done.

    Hohohohohohoho!

    (Waldorf throws Mindy Kaling out of the theater box)

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on The Super Mario Brothers Super Show:

    Hohohohohohoho!
    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker:

    Waldorf and Statler (The Muppet Show) on Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:

    Statler: Well, that's an interesting reboot. Very clever.

    Hohohohohohoho!
    I'm trying to take a break from social media because of the lack of success in finding a good roleplay, my creative dip and the lack of social contacts, but so far, it's been a rocky road to successfully taking a break from social media. I'm feeling a bit melancholic and struggling with taking that first step in my break from social media. One of my friends gave me a few suggestions of things I could do, but it's hard to take a break from social media when I have my whole social life on social media.
    I'm dealing with a creative dip, and it really sucks.
    I don't know if I'm the only one, but I'm really having a hard time putting my mind to writing my 'Shroom sections because of the warm weather and my constantly flaring mental health issues. Does anyone else have that problem too?

    I have the mental health issues, but the weather is…acceptable.
    I'm not feeling in the highest of spirits at the moment. For a while now, I've been feeling doubtful about my ability to write anything, in the sense that I feel that some of my friends are better at writing than I'll ever be. I don't like feeling like this and I don't know how I'm going to stop feeling like this.

    The most important thing is that you're happy with what you make and that you enjoy making it. Comparing your work to other people's and judging it on that merit is a big pitfall that's best avoided. Obviously, there's nothing wrong with looking at your own work critically, thinking about what could be improved, and taking the steps to do that, and using other work that you enjoy as a guide to how you might do that. But really in anything in life you can almost definitely find someone with more experience and skill if you look for them (by definition, very few people are the "best"!), so you shouldn't get caught up in that. It's better to focus on what you personally get out of it.

    I'll do my best to keep that in mind, WT. Thanks for the words of wisdom.
    I won't be uploading a new question in my Random question of the day thread today and maybe tomorrow because I cross-post my daily questions to RPNation, and RPNation is down for maintenance in the next two days. I apologize for the inconvenience.
