FANART: Rocko's Modern Life

Unlike most people my age, I didn't discover Nicktoons until I was in my late teens (before that, my family couldn't afford cable :P). Aside from syndicated holiday specials and occasionally watching them at my friends' houses, I didn't get to grow up with any of the cartoons that aired on cable. So I don't have a huge nostalgic attachment to most of the 90s Nickelodeon shows.

So, when I finally saw Rocko's Modern Life, I couldn't believe the stuff it got away with! I marathoned a bunch of episodes this week (thanks, Netflix!) and it's 1,000 times funnier when you're a grown up who has actually had to deal with evil bosses, laundromats, the DMV, moocher friends, bigoted weirdos, and watching your pals get married & have kids.
