    We all know that the Beastie Boys are referencing the real life Dr. Spock, right?

    A very famous pediatrician?

      Fun police, shut it down. Shut everything down, pull the plug. There’s a technical inaccuracy, all jokes are null and void. Everybody needs to go home, or we start arresting people.

        Scene: House party, 11PM. Fun police raid the building, crashing through windows and kicking in the front door. Partygoers scream and scatter in all directions. Fun police let their dogs off the leash, and they turn into fur missiles chasing the stragglers.

        Scene: Backyard. Protagonist sprints through the backyard, chased by a dog, and clumsily tries to scale the back fence. A dog has a firm grip on his pants leg and refuses to let go.

        :: record scratch, freeze frame ::

        That’s me, trying to climb that fence. You might be wondering how I got here…

      He seems like a really good person!

      Please don’t tell me he’s a eugenicist or something…

        He did a lot of good for a lot of parents. Most of what we consider to be the baseline for parenting is because of Dr. Spock. Some of his advice is now medically outdated, but most of it remains timeless and valuable. He was a good dude.
