I've been in a retro mood lately (for about the last year or so:D) and I've been intrested in the old school Adult Swim Bumps on Cartoon Network. If you're a fan of them, chime in. I have a playlist on youtube with the old Adult Swim bumps plus I've created a few of my own.

Here are a few of my own creations:

Cartoon Network after 11pm shows about 5-15 second segments before a show was about to start which were called bumps. They always had a cool background to see and an awesome, but underground (not very heard of) song to go along with it. They still do this, but they're not as good as in the early 2000s, and the great one's are few and far between nowadays.

Considering my cartoon-watching days were back in the 70's, I can see why none of us know WTF "Adult Swim" is....:confused:

My heyday with cartoons was in the eighties: He-Man, Justice League, Transformers, and Thundercats, but I love Adult Swim b/c they are "adult" cartoons. (really they're cartoons made for immature 15 - 24 yr olds, but I still watch them anyway). I'm 31 and still watch it from time to time.
