What is your favorite bit of trivia for a particular fairy tale? I have some of my own.

For me, my most favorite is one regarding Red Riding Hood. As Charles Dickens explained in his short story, 'A Christmas Tree', he had a crush on her when he was a kid; "She was my first love. I felt that if I could have married Little Red Riding-Hood, I should have known perfect bliss".

There are also several tidbits of Hans Christian Andersen basing parts of his life into his tales. Such as the Roof Garden in The Snow Queen, being based on one he knew about as a child.

Do you think it was possible the PowerPuff Girls and the RowdyRuff Boys recognized each other as teenagers in the "City of Clipsville" segment?

While the clip was probably meant to not be much more than an imagine spot, there are some possibilities I thought of.

- Were the Girls in that scene meant to see the Boys only as random boys, or did they recognize them and fall for them, and vice versa? Perhaps finally acting on implied childhood crushes towards each other.
- Since Bubbles in that flash-forward was the first person to point out that they "are bad boys", was it meant to indicate that Bubbles recognized them, or was she acting cautious? Perhaps she was acting cautious because she recognized them as the RRB.
- Did the Girls fall for them as a parody of teenage crushes, or was it meant to be that they fell for them after the Boys presumably stopped being evil?

What do you think?
