The magic of Disney

I was at a friends apartment the other day, doing some laundry. To while away the time, I turned on the TV and flipped the channels until I found something I might like. The channel I happened to stop at was the Disney channel which was airing back to back episodes of The Suite Life of Zach and Cody. I normally would not watch the Disney channel, but it was either this or some movie on Lifetime that I really wasn't in the mood for.

The two main characters had changed since I last remembered watching them. They had grown and gotten new hairstyles and the humor had branched out a little, but the show was fundamentally the same. As I watched, I realized that this was the first time since i had arrived on campus that I was watching something that didn't have any foul language or contain any racist or sexist remarks. This to me was a big deal.

Since I have got here, I have discovered Adult Swim and shows like Family Guy and South Park. I remember vividly the first time I watched South Park. I was utterly disgusted and turned of the TV after about ten minutes.

Family Guy on the other hand I can watch, though it still gets unbearable sometimes. Anyway, I know now which channel I can switch to when it all gets too much. This to me is the magic of Disney.
