Those Meddling Kids

 
Turns out that Velma from Scooby Doo is a lesbian which is not such a revelation as i always assumed she was anyway, something about the haircut i guess but some people (looking at you Bible thumper types) who are not happy that their enjoyment of a children's cartoon is being sullied by one of the Mystery Machine Gang members (aka those meddling kids) not conforming to what they deem as 'normal'.
I have seen enough Scooby Doo's in my life to see that Velma's sexual orientation is the least of their problems because as they are considering rational explanations for supernatural events, nobody queries the talking Great Dane they are having a conversation with. A Lesbian is not normal but a talking dog is fine?
Also, as i'm on a  roll, start with the janitor as it's always the bloody the janitor or if its a haunted theme park, it's the theme park owner pretending that the hotel/theme park is haunted to drive down its value so he could buy the place cheap but spent hundreds of thousands on holographic equipment to achieve it.
What sort of economic lesson is that teaching the kids?
