Puketastic!

So you're watching an episode of South Park called "Proper Condom Use" and everything is fine and dandy. The kids swear a lot and the adults' incompetence and poor sexual education ultimately lead to all-out war between the boys and girls of South Park. So far, so good, right? You're laughing, having fun, and thinking this will be another hilarious, crude but forgettable chapter of SP's history.

Then comes The Scene. Matt and Trey's atom bomb. To put it in simple terms, Mr. Mackey takes miss Choksondik's virginity, with revoltingly graphic results. This sex scene has to be one of the most disturbing things I've EVER seen. EVER. I don't care if it's animated. I don't care if it's comedy. This scene will scar any straight male for life. I'm not kidding. I'm still having nightmares.

After The Scene is over, there's the usual dumb solution to the conflict and one of the kids deliver a little speech, but at this point you're still too stunned to really absorb anything. Struggling not to hurl, you leave your TV set, wobble to bed and wonder if maybe you could have lived a happier life without having to see miss Choksondik's exposed, floppy boobs. But it's too late. Your life, as you know it, is over, and your mental state will never be the same again.
