Hee hee, metafiction for the epic win.
Hey, if something pooped candy for me whenever I wanted it, I'd let it say whateeeever it wanted.

Now I'm curious to know how many are thinking to themselves "Who??!?. |
Who is on first!
I don't know is on third!

Suddenly I'm reminded of that 'Pokemon' 'Ditto' but much more "moe".
Uggh. For a minute there I thought she was holding a fork but it's her tie.

Comedy like this never gets old, despite being "tired". A show within a strip mocking itself. Classic.

Indeed. Nothing like the "play within a play" element (thank you, senior-high-school-year Development of Western Thought class, for epoxying that phrase to my brain for eternity) to bring the funny. Well played, Robin.

SPOILER!!!
*sigh*
Well, now that the cat's out of the bag, my question's become moot. It's okay, though. I've already forgotten what we were talking about. |
Who's on first. Guess Who's on second. And can someone tell me the third act?...Yes! ("Well, who?" "No, Who's on _first_!!")
I'll take Obscure Classic Rock Bands for $1000, Alex. (BTW I realize the Who are not obscure.)

What's the group on stage?
Who.
The group on stage!
Who.
The group on stage!!
Who.
*sigh* Do you see the band on stage?!
No, they're playing later, right now we're listening to Who!
That's what I'm asking you!
I miss Animaniacs.
Anyway- the 1-word rule does not apply to mascots, I say! (And great comic!)

OMG...I actually forgot about that bit with Slappy Squirrel and her...I wanna say nephew? Thanks for the flashback.
announcer: And now...Janis Joplin!
*offscreen...typical Janis Joplin caterwauling from stage*
Slappy: Oops...someone just ran over the cat!
This has been the ANN tribute to Woodstock. We now return to the Anime News Nina feedback, already in progress.

See, that's three lines Pikachu says, proving, I say proving he's not a one-line creature. |
He can even say Ash's and Misty's names!
Pika-pi = Satoshi
Pika-chu-pi = Kasumi
Pi-pi-pi = Togepi
And maybe others, but I'm not going to learn pokémon. It's bad enough knowing Furbish.
Kah way-loh koh-koh.

That was one of my favorite episode of Slappy and Skippy Squirrel! DuelLadyS thanks for the falshback! And yes, nagato316, that is Slappy's nephew. Thank you for the Janis bit. Slappy was so funny!
Good one this week Robin!

Wasn't expecting a follow up for that, but the surprise plus the humor made a nice combo. Looking forward for the next.
