I still remember the firestorm of controversy over the use of "penis breath" as an insult in "E.T." This was back when PG meant that parents were urged to be present for the movie and provide some guidance. Now, of course, it means that it's perfectly in line with primetime television and therefore entirely healthful for any child over the age of ten to watch -- i.e., "not R."
