i only knew about these guys via the parodies of them on garfield and gi joe so this sentiment is definitely shared among bitter children's cartoon writers of the 1980s

looks like they are clearly in a man vs machine or man vs nature struggle here??

I argue that they appear to be coexisting with both nature and machine!!

There was a run of cartoons based on greeting card characters. They aren't here for conflict, they're literally just here to mollify.

Buncha kids that suck hanging out in a train caboose.
