Okay, I have to wonder if today's reference is too obscure? Does everyone recognize it? (If not, you should, it's a great movie.)

Also be aware that there's another line from that same movie coming up, watch for it!

So... did anyone get the Arthur reference on Friday?

Sorry, not me.

Sorry, I'm trapped between the moon and NYC. Best that you can do is explain.

BTW For the Jan-24 strip: I've never thought that KISS's songs would make great punchlines!

And think of me when we're apart.

That's the problem with obscure references. They're...well...Obscure. And if folks don't get it, it turns into this whole "explaining the joke" thing.

Just wanted to tell you that I give you a "10" for another Dudley Moore reference.

by **zortic** on Mon Feb 19, 2007 7:01 pm

Whoo Hoo! You got it! I'm glad this one wasn't lost on everyone.

by **Murray M. Lee** on Tue Feb 20, 2007 7:09 am

Heh, that one I did get.

Actually, I liked this comic more when the references were a bit more obscure. On which note, today's explaination of how sexual fetishes form: was that meant to be a paraphrasing of Asimov's explaination from the Foundation trilogy prequels?
I don't know, I thought the comic was better when it parodied classics rather than going after recently mainstream material like Fire Fly (a great show that WAS obscure for a while, but not quite so obscure since Serenity came out).

Mark: Now you've done it! You perverted my memories of Up periscope!

Thanks a lot...

by **zortic** on Fri Feb 23, 2007 6:24 pm

Perverted memories are some of my favorite memories. :lol:

Hi Connor, welcome to the forums. I agree with you that the classics are the best (usually I'm just afraid I'm showing my age). But something important to remember is that there's never just one parody. Eventually the Firefly parody will blend with another parody or two. I actually have several great classics coming up in the next few months.

The fetish formation is something I've heard in a few different places. But your right, it does fit right in with the Foundation concept.

I recall reading in Victorian times, prostitution was legal. They felt hookers drew the creeps away from good women.

So more mature and open societies have healthier outlooks? What happens in a society in which more and more women have no interest in relationships?

So you're familiar with my High School experiences?

It does seem more and more guys are these days.

Sooo... MarK: How long will it be before you give us the links to watch the videos?

I googled for them for... Scientific purposes!

Time you put Chearl in a red dress, since you've been making a "Woman in Red" references for awhile.

by **zortic** on Thu Mar 01, 2007 4:29 am

That's right! Things should heat up soon!

by **atristain** on Thu Mar 01, 2007 10:57 am

What? No strip today? I was hoping to see today the crew being chased by at least a dozen Bobbies riding a Ford T!
