Plot

When a mother (voiced by Bea Benaderet impersonating Cass Daley) goes to work in a factory during World War II (see Rosie the Riveter), Porky Pig is hired to baby-sit. He quickly finds out that the baby is a violent-tempered infant. He tries to use a child psychology book to control the baby, to no avail. Eventually, the mother returns and uses the book to discipline the baby — by spanking.

gollark: Plus it kind of works as a templating engine, *but* doesn't do XSS protection.
gollark: Plus it works by just running files you navigate to, which is bad for stuff like REST APIs.
gollark: I think PHP FPM or whatever keeps a pool of executor processes around, but you appear to not be using that.
gollark: Which is really slow.
