I loved Parker Lewis.

Annother that I'm surprised evaded mention was the Nickalodeon title 
/Pete & Pete/... some serious wierdness there... including guest 
apperances by all kinds of people. Iggy Pop was a regular guest star as 
the head of the International Adult Conspiracy (motto: Because We Said So).

The kid named 'Papercut' comes to mind as a wierd adept... papyrimaner?
Like clockworking but with origami...

It seems his taboo was loosing at rock-paper-scissors. (he allways chose 
paper and all the kids were too scared to pick anything but rock.)

Remembering my tenure as a kid, the rather tenuous grasp on causality 
that goes along with it suggests that the taboos are not as closely 
linked with what you do.. they'd maybe be totally unrelated.

Please forgive my disjointed rambling.. I'm not coherrent this soon 
after waking up.
