Guys, it's a cartoon. Stop reading so far into it. When you do that, it isn't funny anymore and ruins it for you.

Also, you'll get a headache. ;)


I'm merely offering criticism. Not getting into it myself for the sake of such, but one has to get into it to counter the arguments of those who are getting into it.

More like, you said it better than me, but I got there first.

Yeh, your' probably right.

And yessir we could take this much less seriously. We miss out the many fine humorous points, such as Reinfocement's big debut. His voice was perfect! All he said was "hi guys" but it cracks me up.

And just for summary, kids, here's what you do when confronted by tough peer-to-choice teen pressure:
1. Pretend you have any of the old gold rush-era diseases.
2. Imagine your "inappropriators" are giant slices of pizza.
3. Have your light infantry create a think smokescreen. Then lay down some heavy suppressive fire until the snipers are in position.

Then don't watch it again. Period, end of conversation.

It's a stupid line from a stupid cartoon on a website that centers around some moron who can't pronounce "Alamo" properly. Does the line offend you? DON'T WATCH THE CARTOON AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE.

Ok, so we don't kill eachother now, ToastPaint.

I showed this to my friend, it has him laughing the whole time. He loved the Blue Lazer candy part.

I said, "Hey kid, wanna smoke some candy?" during lunch. Everyone thought I was a freak of nature, even though they should have known that already.

I don't really think TBC are getting edgy. And what if they are? I have to say the "edgy" jokes were the funniest!
'Wanna smoke some candy with me?' XDROFLMAOBBQ!

And what in the heck is so bad about mentioning teen pregnancy?
What in the world can it cause??

Teen: "ZOMG! He sez 'teen pregnant'! I thnk Ill tri geting dat 2! lol!" ?
Fat chance!!

I used Pro positive life tool #1 today and it worked.

Kid: I didn't do my homework, let me copy your answers
Me: I can't, I have the cholera.
Kid: Okay... I'll ask someone else.

Comandos in the classroom is an effective lesson.

Teen pregnancy, drugs, violent deaths (which weren't poorly drawn in pencil), direct alcohol reference, this is definately the edgiest toon ever.

But it was great. The wine cooler and sniffing candy scenes were amazing.

A lot of many stars!

Teen pregnency was used out of context and drugs weren't even mentioned, just referenced. Not too edgy... And violent deaths?!

I'm sorry, but you did by any chance accidentely wander off to the VGDC site instead?

Where are these "violent deaths"? Are you thinking of the pony carnage (which we never got to see), or the fact that the blue laser minions tried to shoot Fightgar (which was not shown either)? [sarcasm] Oh! I know! You mean Gunhaver pushing Reynold offsceen! [/sarcasm]

Seriously, you people are starting to really overreact with this "OMG! H*R DID THAT!" stuff. They've done much worse in the past and you can read the last few pages of this thread for proof. *fake sympathy* Ohh, but I guess you guys are just too lazy to do that.

Come on! Even my mom thinks you people are being ridiculous!

It's always nice to know that a cartoon could effect one's life. You should send that into TBC.

I have just been informed that the latest Cheat Commandos contains BRIEF SCENES OF PONY CARNAGE.

I take it all back. I have defended them for long enough. The Brothers Chaps surely are the devil. I will NOT be returning to their horrifying website, and may God have mercy on their souls.

'Bout time we got another Cheat Commandos! This one rocked almost as much as Shopping For Danger! (I don't think they can ever outdo themselves there, but who knows?)

You know, you guys who complain about the new Cheat Commandos toon being edgy, inappropriate, and that kind of crap, are you just using these points (that are not 100% true, they're just used for humor) to just demoralize the Cheat Commandos because you hate them? Come on. I know people who think the Cheat Commandos should have not developed from "army", that its toons suck, that it is a kind of feature that can't produce any more toons, and that kind of crap, so they don't like the Cheat Commandos. But are you complaining about all of the aforementioned stuff about Commandos in the Classroom to just insult the Cheat Commandos? If no, then sorry, but that's what I thought. If yes, then don't complain. This kind of reminds me of the people who think Jar-Jar Binks sucks.

No. No no no. I love the Cheat Commandos. They roxxors my soxxors. When I was saying about it being risque, I meant that it could be interpreted by some as being risque. I really didn't mind it.

When someone who was clearly in a mind fog asked me what this was all about, I said "inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors". They seemed to take me seriously.


We got that thing a year ago in school complete with don't drink. Two girls were picked to to do a drama about it in which one offered the other beer and the other regected it. But the person who was meant to reject it decided to have a joke and pretended to drink the whole can as soon as she was offered it.

Wow. This toon was amazing!

"He looks crazy, should we shoot him?" X-D

Oh, and:

"Hey kid, wanna smoke some candy?"

BEST. LINE. EVER.


I was showing this to my dad and brother and they seriously laughed out loud through the entire thing. 10/10

Yes, but what about the younger children that watch it and don't know what teen pregnancy is, and they are too young to be explained by their parents what it is? Although, not a lot of younger people watch H*R, but TBC do know that some younger childrens visit it. I guess they just weren't thinking of the little people :O

Um... little kids can get teen pregnant.

And if a kid takes something like that in this cartoon seriously, then they'll be able to figure out that it's bad because of the response the other commandos had to it.

yeah I don't post much. But MY GOD!
I was a pretty sheltered kid. A common joke when I was SEVEN was "are you PT?"
If they answered no "Ohhhh you're not Potty trained!"
If they answered yes "Ohhh you're a pregnant teen!"
You guys are being absolutely ridiculous.

Plain, simple, ridiculous. I'm all for making sure kids don't see horrible violence and pornography, even swearing etc. But saying the word pregnant? They use the word pregnant in rated G movies. Any child who can reason basically would say "hmmm... pregnant... with teen before it.. must be a teenager who is pregnant. That's not a good age, in the good movies I watch they're always in their twenties and married."
People who think this is too edgy give children far too little credit. They aren't incapable of thought, you know.

Edit : I will agree, if he had said "get a teen pregnant" it would be edgy, somewhat, not to mention slightly disturbing.
Other references: What's bad about alcohol? Kids know it exists. They've referenced "cold ones" (beer) and if, of all drinks WINE COOLERS are upsetting you, that's also sad.
Smoking candy: Children know "smoking's bad" it's a joke.
Pony Carnage 2: They've done far things more violent
The very violent graphic death scenes: Well, these were figments of your imagination
