"Moist" in pop culture

[David Bowie]

Since there was a good deal of discussion of people finding the word
"moist" offensive a few months ago, i figured i'd note that i just found
out that the topic showed up (albeit via an indirect reference) in a
"Big Top" cartoon from a while back--as far as i can make out from
squinting, it was published 29 June 2003. Image at:
