User blog comment:Ponyo Fan/OPINIONS NEEDED: Is the ParodySponge episode "Water Sex" inappropriate for this wiki?/@comment-28230816-20151126075838

ponyo i didn't even know you read parodysponge

in fact i didn't even know you were still alive

But anyway, I don't know where you're going with the whole "they aren't necessary to the plot" idea. Of course they're not necessary to the plot. That's not the point. They're not there to advance the story, they're there to provide laughs. Lots of comedies have jokes that aren't nessacry to the plot.

Also, I don't think the rating system on this wiki, television, or the film industry accurately represents what people can handle at all. You know all those rated MA video games that are supposed to be for people 18 and up? Guess how many ten years old there are playing it? A lot. I'd argue that "Water Sex" is indeed appropriate for young teenagers seeing as how it was written by a young teenager and the fact that this is the content contained in this episode is really no worse than the stuff middle schoolers will joke around about.

Though, if we have to resort to one of your proposed scenarios, I pick A. And if that doesn't work, then C. I'm not rewriting this episode, so no B for me. Haha, that rhymes.'' I'm so smart. ''
