Everything works fine, but every time I load the website it flirts with me.

Things that occur in Netflix's The Sneetches and also in Chunky Chimp (the parody kids movie in Bluey), but not in Dr Seuss' The Sneetches:

• The protagonist is told to "just be yourself"
• A thunderstorm
• Protagonist saves the village from said thunderstorm using a vehicle of their own design

Takes a special kind of arrogance to look at the Sneetches, one of the all time greatest children’s political satires, and think “yeah, I reckon we can do better than that. Tear it up and start again.”

The new Netflix “version” is a non-ironic Chunky Chimp. Awful.
