Angriest Rice Cooker Diretor’s Cut 13–On Dreams
This is one that I actually posted two different comments about at the time that I posted it. I don’t really have any new musings, so I guess I’ll just reprint those now:
From the newsposts on the old main page:
“The punctuation on the Wondertwin activation speech was a real writing challenge. I think I got it, though.”
From the livejournal:
“In addition to the comment I made about the difficulty of punctuating the Wonder Twin activation speech on the main page, I’ve had some other difficulties with this comic. Namely, what I believed to be a near-universal pop culture reference was missed by almost all the people I showed the comic to when it was in the creation stage. My response to myself was “hey, Family Guy made that joke and they were on NETWORK TV.” Which I quickly recognized as the stupidest justification ever, given that Family Guy is the show that once parodied, at length, the visuals associated with William Shatner’s rendition of Rocket Man. I might as well be taking my accessibility cues from MST3K.
“So for those of you who’ve never had the dubious pleasure of seeing the Wonder Twins, humor websitist Seanbaby has the more or less definitive work on the subject here. It’s worth a look.
“P.S.
“‘They’re arresting Harlan Ellison!’
“‘Good.’”
Whew. Reposting those actually ended up taking longer than writing an actual new post. I guess I’ve learned something.
