Personally, I never found the PDSD all that maddening.  Maybe that's because
I never truly grew up.  What does drive me crazy is that you can't get the
stupid songs out of your head.  You are at work, slaving away, when suddenly
you find yourself singing, "Look out the window, what do you see?..."

My oldest outgrew the PDSD at about age 3 1/2.  My youngest never liked the
PDSD.

Now, the 4 gay creatures with electronic appliances in their bodies...
Those he loved.  And they are *infinitely worse* than the PDSD.
