You Can't Do That On Television 

Fantastic Canadian-made older kids' show aired during Nickelodeon's infancy. Involving snot jokes, barf jokes, fart jokes, and other similar hoohah, it was notable for naming one of its castmembers "Moose" despite the fact that she was a young human female.

Did you know Alanis Morrisette got her start on `You Can't Do That On Television` back in the day? Even still, I like it anyway.

You Can't Do That On Television by Neilmiser May 6, 2004

you can't do that on television 

A show that started out on local TV in Canada on CJOH.
Executives of a station called "The Pinwheel Channel" in the US happened upon it and decided it was just what their station need. Then The Pinwheel Channel became Nickelodeon.
Then they had a hit.
Not only boosted the lulling stations ratings but also gave them their trademark slime scheme. Nick doesn't acknowledge this, perhaps because publicizing it will do no good to them. The slime would fall on someone when they said "I don't know." Water would also fall on someone who said "water."
It ran in the US from 1981-1990. It was such a big hit in the US, it left Canadians scratching their heads. Most Canadian children found the show disgusting and it never had a wide audience in its homeland.
Supposedly was cancelled because the show went through kids like a revolving door on crack and it was a tedious task to send royalty checks to 200+ different children.
Alanis Morissette appeared on about six episodes of the show in 1986, as a minor character.

GUY #1: Moose on You Can't Do That On Television was my first crush.
GUY #2: How 'bout Lisa Ruddy?
GUY #3: I don't know... (Glop...)
GUY #1: I'm so thirsty.
GUY #3: Would you like a glass of water? (Splash)

Well, you can't do that with a regular spoon. 

A phrase to describe a situation that shouldn't have been able to happen to begin with but through the pettiness of the universe, did happen.

*At work I reached up to grab a sandwich box, the spring attached to the box holding mechanism broke causing all the boxes to fall onto the ground and knocking over food in the process.*

Me: Well, you can't do that with a regular spoon.

Can't Let you do that 

An Internet Meme from the quote Wolf used in Starfox 64.
Often comes after something said by another person.

The word "Do" In the meme is commonly changed to whatever the topic relates to, Like "Can't let you eat that." Etc, Etc, Etc...

Usually used in sarcasm or to be annoying. Most people don't take it seriously, because it's really not.
n00bs will usually go all "N00b-Fu" On you if you use it at the wrong time though.

Protect your e-Crotch.

Robber: THIS IS A HOLD UP! *Points a gun*
Random guy: CAN'T LET YOU SHOOT THAT

Guy (Talking to another guy): So, I'll meet you at the cafe in ten minu-
Random guy (Interupting): CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT!
