Clever small puzzle; is that the big red button?!?

You mean this shiny, candylike button? (Ren & Stimpy)
-or-
Oo-oo-oo, what does this button do? (Dexter's Laboratory)

I solved without guessing. But I pushed the button by mistake.

It was tempting...so tempting, but i had just decided that you were right, you always are. The button need not be pressed...resisting the urge, my finger paused, hovering over the button...my sigh of relief was still lingering in the air when a rogue exclamation point came out of nowhere and mashed my finger down. My other hand threw a fist toward the heavens as the sigh pushed into a battle cry "PUNCTUATION!!!"

Fun solve, Nathan. No guessing.

So, is Kristen right? First or second guess? Or no reference at all?

Thanks, Nathan! Fun solve.

I think I just watch too many cartoons. :)

Ha, not an intentional reference to anything in particular, but I'd definitely go with Dexter's Lab.

My artistic skills are not very good, hehe. But I do seem to like making puzzles.

When we were kids, we said that someone who could do that with their fingers was "double jointed".

Of course you push the button. Buttons are made to be pushed.
