In reference to drug references:

 If I wanted to sit around all day long staring at the tv in hopes of finding
drug references, I could probably find thousands, not too mention beer
references, smoking references, and much other BS... BUT

 And this is a big BUTT

 It is a cartoon, a very enjoyable one if you were to ask me, which you didnt,
but I will tell you anyways.. The point is... WHY??? why are drugs being
brought into this at all?

	It was late Saturday night.  Some friends and I were sitting
about with our heaping bowls of hot lather.  We broke out the Ouija
Board(TM),(Betcha don't have a pair of these, Earthling), to find the
answers that only the spirits know.  When it was my turn to ask a
question I just had to know: How long until the new Ren and Stimpy
shows?
	As the magic indicator began to whirl, I closed my eyes and
had a friend transcribe each letter.  When we were finished, we had
our answer.  We had spelled out: N-O-T-V-E-R-Y. Oh joy!

	But how long is that???

I wouldn't say it's *based on* Ren beating up Stimpy.  Most of the gags in
"Marooned" conclude that way, but what the hey.

More importantly, what difference does any of that make??  We're not talking
about Tolstoy here, we're talking about Ren and Steempy, you bloated sack!
Oh, look.  I'm you're friend.  These newsgroups are RUINing your MIND!  <Flush>

>(and I can't resist a DYN - when Stimpy appears with the oddly-pronounced
>space cabbage, his entrance is marked with the sound of an old Star Trek door),

I just looked at the tape, and it doesn't have that sound (maybe a second has
been shaved from the version on MTV, which is what my recording is from?), but
the scene in "Space Madness" when Stimpy shows up with the "three-course meal"
(cat food in tubes) has that effect.

Lots of the sound effects in that episode are Star Trek effects.  For instance:
the "really cool noises" that thing makes; one of the times Stimpy pulls the
Space Cadet Handbook out;  others I'm probably missing.

Also, in "Space Madness", in the opening scene on the bridge, you hear that
little whirring/pinging noise like on Star Trek when all is calm on the bridge
in that show.

Ok, here's a DYN of my own:  What *is* that Ren does in "Marooned" when Stimpy
reads the Space Cadet Handbook about "in-dij-ee-nus flora"?  Is he pointing at
something . . . or doing that "jacking off" gesture which is used to mean
"big deal"?  If that's what it is, and they got away with puting it on mational
TV . . . COOL!

          For those of you who care.........

              Martinizing is some sort of trademarked way of dry cleaning.
          The company boasts that it only takes an hour, but nobody I know
          ever tested that theory out.  There is a Martinizing store in my
          home town of Whitehall, Pa. in the Whitehall Mall (town motto: We
          love Malls) Maybe it's only a local thing, but I was surprised when
          I heard Ren say it.  Anyway, whatever it is the dry cleaning always
          comes out looking nice.

We just learned in Eastern religions a term called "Jen" which is

is pronounced "ren"  -  I know Ren's Dutch, but I thought it was
neat...

Kinda ironic, huh Ren?

     I figure, by late summer, when these new episodes will FINALLY air,
   We would have create our OWN dialogues for the suggestions we made for
   Ren and Stimpy.  Take for example the NIRVANA episode:

         Ren : "Smells like teen spee-reet...... Eeez eet steenky?"
        Stimpy : "Just how yooo like it..."

       [Ren and Stimpy begin to mosh to "Smells Like Happy Teen Spirit"
         in an apartment they found just this episode as they toss
         different Mexican cuisine's around the kitchen....]

   Song:  "  A tostada.... A BURRITO.... Enchirito..... Mescalito...
            Mitochondria ..... la la la ..... "

       [Mr. Horse, is living upstairs basically pull his tail hairs out of
         his ass shrieking in agony as he clogs his ears with Gritty Kitty
        litter he just purchased from Huge Market,  but then a knocker on
       the door enters Mr. Horse's apartment and asks him.....]

    guest: "Excuse me, Mr. Horse, but what are your feelings about his song?"

   [Mr. Horse STOPS and then inquires him mind with his hoof on his chin for
     about 50 listens through the Nirvana album R&S is blasting downstairs,
   and finally says....]

      Mr. Horse : "...NO SIR!.......I didn't like it."

   [Mr. Horse resumes to clog his ears with Gritty kitty and scream with
     agony]

     ....OH well, so much for curing my boredom.  Hopefully, there can
   be some ORIGINAL dialogue to these as opposed to stealing lines from
   those 6 episodes we ALL know and MEMORIZED to a single pixel....

I wouldn't exactly call those "obvious references to drugs".  I mean, the scene
you mentioned with Stimpy's stamps had Stimpy licking all over the envelope,
which wound up, mysteriously enough, with stamps already on it:  the situation
is explained by Stimpy's tongue display.  Could be a drug reference, but could
just as easily be a non-sequitor.  As for the mushroom thing:  huh??  Where do
you see that?

But anyway, this is all beside the point.  What difference, in the end, does it
really make?  (Except to add to the underground flavor of the show?)

Say, you don't think it's possible that Ren's last name didn't come from
anywhere in particular, do you?  Or that maybe the umlaut is there just as
a joke?  Could it be?  A joke in a Ren And Stimpy cartoon?  Whoa, I know

put something in one of their cartoons just because it's funny.  :-)

I was startled by (what I perceived as) the similarity of his voice to
