#68. When Ren & Stimpy premiered on Nicktoons in 1991 I was already familiar with them since they had been introduced a few years earlier at Spike & Mike's Festival of Animation.
The first season was unlike any cartoon being aired at the time, with highly stylized animation and grotesque visual gags that seemed out of place on Nickelodeon. The exectives at Nick had problems with the creator John K and by the 2nd season he was out. And that is when Ren & Stimpy died for me.
I have a few more Ren & Stimpy shirts, but I chose to wear this one at day 3 of Coachella 2011. And good thing too, since the pizza vendor liked my shirt so much he gave me my food for free (a Coachella first for me).
