    I posted that image 8 years ago during a slew of sexual misconduct allegations when the whole #MeToo movement went full swing. :p This was my caption:

    In a statement released today, The Grandfather Clock from "Captain Kangaroo" alleges that Mister Green Jeans fondled the hands on his face at least twice a year from 1963 to 1969. In a related story, Mr. Moose and Mr. Bunny Rabbit allege that they were both fisted by Dancing Bear. And several witnesses have come forward claiming that they saw Captain Kangaroo himself thumb a copy of the children's book "Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel".

    And this:

    When you get cranky about misspelling. Probably has a lot to do with Captain Kangaroo having taught you spelling and all 😂
