Irma

[Jelly Bean]

So I was wondering, does irma ever find a boyfriend? She always wants that very special guy but never seems to get one. And she's pretty kinky for a cartoon girl. :o i get the impression she would put out at a moments notice.

[VaughnMichael]

She had Howie but they didn't have him in many episodes and thank god for that :lol:

[sdp]

She always wanted a piece of Don, but I guess pretty much a piece of any male that walked :lol:

and as bad as Howie's songs were I kinda liked them :oops::oops:

[Jester]

She had Howie but they didn't have him in many episodes and thank god for that :lol:
Indeed....he was the only character more annoying than Irma herself...

HEY-O!!

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

She almost ended up with Shredder (she thought it was a guy dressed like him) in "Four Musketurtles".

[Archon_Turtle]

She went out with Rex-1....

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

She went out with Rex-1....

And that accordionist she met for a short time in "The Case of the Killer Pizzas".

[gobo]

i get the impression she would put out at a moments notice.
Appearances can be deceiving. She may have always been on the prowl, but I somehow doubt she ever got that 'frisky' with Howie. The man probably would have had a heart-attack. In other words, 'boy-crazy' and 'promiscuous aren't necessarily the same thing.

The idea that Irma would ever put out for anybody would likely give everyone in the TMNT universe a heart attack. :lol:

[gobo]

I know it would give me a heart-attack if she ever went all the way with anyone. "Watch out for those paper cuts, guys!" :P

[Coola Yagami]

ooooh the things I would do to Irma....

[cup-mikey-gertha]

Remember when Donnie said, "I need you" to Irma?

That was a moment.

:lol:

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

Remember when Donnie said, "I need you" to Irma?

That was a moment.

:lol:

Which episode?

[oldmanwinters]

Which episode?

"Invasion of the Turtle Snatchers"

Very weird episode. Especially due to Don's little line and Irma's response.

[gobo]

I thought it was Donatello's Degree...

[NameGoesHere1066]

Irma was the best! Through her the show was able to add in a sexually frraustrated female character worthy of "Sex in the City". Irma's character had the most mature humor with her cross specious innuendo! :lol: Her willingness to find a man no what was funny as hell.

Remember when Donnie said, "I need you" to Irma?

That was a moment.

I remember, that was great! She was like "OoOOoOohh" all throaty like. And Donatello had to specifically tell her to take it easy while making "ok back off" gestures. The look of dissapointemnt on her face was priceless. :D

I think Irma and Vernon should have hooked up. I think Vernon had the hots for her but never admitted it.

[ZariusTwo]

Irma really was ahead of her time. As noted above, she's got that nerdish "Sex and the City" kind of night life ambition that never quite is what she expects it to be. Her self-deprecating sense of humour made her probably the most relatable human out of the mainly career-obsessed ones like April who needed her hand held by Irma to kind of come back down to Earth sometimes (though she was perfectly capable of doing it herself)

Her and Donatello had a nice development every so often, both of them probably had a crush on the other but always ackwardly expressed it, often embarrasing themselves in those same conversations. "Donatello's Degree" is their finest hour just because you get that little sense of what could be from the two of them

"You wait for someone to pick you up" has to be heard to be appreciated.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

My money's on she got with Vernon.

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

I thought it was Donatello's Degree...

Donatello and Irma team up in that episode too.

[gobo]

I never saw anything to suggest that Donatello even liked female attention. Can you give an example?

[Scandia]

While all 4 Turtles have crushes on April, Donatello certainly has it the hottest for her.

That said, I do not think Donatello ever had a thing for Irma.

[gobo]

I think you're confusing the two shows. When was it ever suggested that Donatello was more than just uncomfortable with flirtation and all that stuff?

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

Doesn't anyone remember Green With Jealousy? In that episode, due to Krang's love potion, three of the Turtles (besides Donatello, who didn't ingest it) temporarily fell in love with Irma. Irma thinks that some human sailors have fallen in love with her and she is about to marry whichever one showed up first, but when she learns that it was three of the Turtlers instead, she runs off screaming in dismay.

[Coola Yagami]

Which was kinda weird cause every other episode she has the hots for the turtles.

And was it kinda wrong for the turtles to joke and laugh as Iram was running off crying?

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

I always thought April and Irma were like the Peppermint Patty and Marcie of the old toon... if you know what I mean.

[ZariusTwo]

I never saw anything to suggest that Donatello even liked female attention.

It's pretty obvious from the examples I gave, but the nerdish "full of himself" character stereotype doesnt realize what he has until the subliminal aspects become a little more aware.

Those two adored each other.

I always thought April and Irma were like the Peppermint Patty and Marcie of the old toon... if you know what I mean.

You mean that drab joke about them being lesbians when it was obvious Patty wanted to screw Charlie Brown the whole time?

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

You mean that drab joke about them being lesbians when it was obvious Patty wanted to screw Charlie Brown the whole time?

Yeah that one.

April and Irma were totally lesbians.

[Sage Ninja]

I suspect that Irma might have been a lesbian. But April...shes just comes off as a workaholic.

[gobo]

April might not have been as butch as all the lesbian stereotypes, but she was certainly a tomboy/man's woman. I figure Irma is mostly responsible for the keeping in touch as April seems more likely to wanna 'run with the big dogs' which are predominantly men. So, if Irma wasn't in constant need of approval, would April even know her name?

[cup-mikey-gertha]

I suspect that Irma might have been a lesbian.

Irma? A lesbian. Naah. Never occured that to me. How bout you guys?

[gobo]

She's too man-hungry to be a lesbian.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

She's too man-hungry to be a lesbian.

She could be using her "man hunger" though as a mask so that April never finds out that Irma would totally like to tap that ass of hers.

Because after all Irma wouldn't want to lose April.

[Coola Yagami]

Naw... Irma lived to one day get some sausage...

[shuriken]

Yeah I agree with Coola. Although one can never tell, maybe she ended up becoming a lesbian out of desperation. And as for ending up with Vernon, he was too into himself to ever be in any sort of relationship.

[gobo]

Besides, if anyone was gay on that show, Vernon would be the top suspect.

[Jelly Bean]

Vernon comes across to me as being metrosexual not gay. If any 80's toon character gives off that gay vibe it's Bebop and Rocksteady. I mean come on they're ex-convicts and stuck together even after prison. Something tells me they where shower buddies. ;)

It's pretty obvious from the examples I gave, but the nerdish "full of himself" character stereotype doesnt realize what he has until the subliminal aspects become a little more aware.

Those two adored each other.

next you'll be saying that April and Michelangelo had a thing going to! :o

[gobo]

metrosexual
:blanksta:

...

Huh?

[Coola Yagami]

Vernon's too big a loser, a wimp, a coward, an asshole, and too into himself to ever get laid, so his sexual preference is a moot point...

[ZariusTwo]

I suspect that Irma might have been a lesbian. But April...shes just comes off as a workaholic.

...Where did you get that assumption when she was always presenting like a man-drill? Unfortunatly, there's a lot of women in life like Irma.

next you'll be saying that April and Michelangelo had a thing going to! :o

What on earth do you mean by "Had"?:lol:;)

*walks in thread* *shivers at content* *walks back out slowly*:|

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

Maybe. Vernon always was the vanity smurf of TMNT.

Although I thought he showed interest in April at one point. But he'd probably get with someone who's like a female version of himself.

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

The only characters on the show I could think of as practicing homosexuality are Rocksteady and Bebop, not because of genuine homosexual proclivities but out of desperation for sexual outlet. Who would want to have sex with two filthy mutants?

Although Shredder may have a particularly harsh way of punishing them when they screw up badly enough. :o

[cup-mikey-gertha]

She's too man-hungry to be a lesbian.

I second that.

:lol:

[shuriken]

Although Shredder may have a particularly harsh way of punishing them when they screw up badly enough. :o

I could just see Shredder with a whip.
YOU two have been very bad mutants! VERY VERY BAD MUTANTS.
Bebop and Rocksdteady in unison. "Thank you boss can we have another." :lol:

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

I re-he-heally don't want to imagine James Avery Shredder Bondage Happy Fun Time thank you very much.

[shuriken]

Shredder Bondage Happy Fun Time

That kinda sounds like a playset. Let's hope playmates doesn't hear about it:o. LOL

[oldmanwinters]

*walks in thread* *shivers at content* *walks back out slowly*:|

ditto. This thread needs a mod overhaul.

[Coola Yagami]

Eh grow up. Sex is a part of life... which even Irma from an 80's children's cartoon show was a little too eager for.

I just find it a little annoying when we can discuss Leo decapitating Shredder in the comics or all the times Baxter got mutilated on the new show to the point he was just a brain in a jar but the second one mentions how hot April is or notes how Irma acted a tad on the horny side sometimes, it's Mod-Alert time.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

That kinda sounds like a playset. Let's hope playmates doesn't hear about it:o. LOL

I don't even think I wanna know what Shredder would do to the turtles in that playset...

Some are just envious of the things they do not have.

Not pointing fingers by the way. I know how sensitive a subject that is.

[Jelly Bean]

you guys hijacked my thread!!! :lol: :lol:

but yeah, anyway, so Irma didn't end up with anybody? I rewatched Green with Jealousy last night and I actually felt really bad for her. She was ready to marry the first guy that showed up and then found out that it was the turtles. :(

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

Well she's also tried to score a date with splinter.

Lol I'm fine with sex and have had more than enough thanks, what I don't care for is the discussion of cartoon characters sex lives and their sexuality as it's void and nonexistent.
I think the which April is hotter thread is stupid also for your information, if you notice I've not made a single post in that thread.
I thought this could have been an interesting topic about a character that should by all means have more of a background and history but instead I find people giggling like school girls over if a cartoon character is a Lesbian or a Hetero.

There's a reason for mod alert time when it comes to sexual talk because there are indeed younger folk who post here and they don't want the kids to see dirty talk ;)

Frankly I don't care as long as it stays away from moronic fantasy and fan fiction in which you're married to Irma and have 3 ways with Leonardo on splinters love bed.
Some are just envious of the things they do not have.

Oh yes, indeedy I'm jealous that I don't have depraved sexual fantasy's about the TMNT's version of Ugly Betty.
Seriously if and when I want sex I'll go looking for the real thing and get it. It's not that hard to do all ya gotta do is leave your house every once in awhile.

Thanks for making it even worse, guys. It wasn't going to hell fast enough.

no, i think vernon was gay. he had the hots for boys. :lol: also, hurry up and get your 500th post already, damn it.

[VaughnMichael]

no, i think vernon was gay. he had the hots for boys. :lol: also, hurry up and get your 500th post already, damn it.
I never saw him having the hot's for anyone, he was just a sniviling @ss kisser who would do anything to get a better job than April.
It's funny though, he was given the chance a bunch of times and always failed at it.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

Oh yes, indeedy I'm jealous that I don't have depraved sexual fantasy's about the TMNT's version of Ugly Betty.

I would think people fantasize more about 2k3 April.

I agree with you though, but as I said it's not like I'm pointing fingers or anything. But I will say it's not as easy as just leaving the house. Wish it was but it's not.

[VaughnMichael]

I agree with you though, but as I said it's not like I'm pointing fingers or anything. But I will say it's not as easy as just leaving the house. Wish it was but it's not.
It is for me ;)
I'm not just some internet loser ya know, I have a real life and go places *gasp*:lol:

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

It is for me ;)
I'm not just some internet loser ya know, I have a real life and go places *gasp*:lol:

Well lots of people aren't internet losers, have a real life, and go places... Yet it still isn't as easy. Especially if you want it through a real relationship. Takes mroe than just stepping out of the house unless you're paying for it.

That's all I meant.:lol:

We're talking sex not real relationships.:P
Sex is easy, relationships not so much aka *Burne Thompson voice* no no no no.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

Ah well then you got me there.

But people can't help if they want a "total hottie" like April :P

[shuriken]

I guess it depends on the person:ohwell:. I don't think I'd ba able to have sex with someone I wasn't already in a relationship with. I guess that's what Tomoshibi is trying to say. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. As for Irma, well I'd like to think she got some ass after the show's end and her having a relatively happy life there after.

[Tomoshibi Amatsu]

Though her being nerd stalker chick probably doesn't help her land many guys.

[ZariusTwo]

so Irma didn't end up with anybody? I rewatched Green with Jealousy last night and I actually felt really bad for her. She was ready to marry the first guy that showed up and then found out that it was the turtles. :(

The continuity of the original series is often extremly dodgy. In fact, that may be one of the only times she ever rejected a Turtle, in other instances she comes on them or Splinter, or other guest Mutant characters. She's quite picky on a given day it seems...Turtles or bust if she's in the mood, but humans or bust in another.

As for the thread, I don't see a lot of problems with it. Scarily enough, it's far less adolescent than some of the disgusting images I've seen in the "April is Hot" thread (One image in there needs to be deleted). The only "hot" image of Irma in here is the one that reenforces that "Ugly Betty" style, yet it's kind of inaccurate (she never had braces as far as I know), and a lot of this discussion on her (besides who and what she wanted to get laid with) is how underestimating of her own charm she is despite her apperances. This is a subject that affects a lot of women

[Sage Ninja]

I just don't get why there is so much bitching and complaining.

And I agree with ZariusTwo about Irma. Her standards seemed to change from episode to episode at times. What I think is interresting about Green with Jealousy is the unspoken tension with Donatello trying to cure his brothers of their lust for Irma while having the under lying theme of Donatello's supressed emotions adressed.

[Coola Yagami]

Yeah, that episode was just... I dunno... I mean, Irma always wanted some turtle-action, now she has 3 of them wildly in love with her and giving her all sorts of gifts that she adores.... and THEN she freaks out and runs away? The hell? And yeah.. I still feel it was kinda wrong for the turtles (and April) to be joking and laughing while poor Irma was running off in tears...


Rocksteady alone with April in a sub.....? *shudders*

In Sweden, it's the opposite since at least the 1970's. The politicians complain more over violent shows, movies and comic books more than pornography. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was banned until 1994, when the cut version was allowed. The uncut version was banned until 2001 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072271/.
