758: Jinkies!
758: Jinkies!
Today's strip is so awesome. I really want to show this to my wife, who is a life-long Scooby-Doo fan and a female GM... but there is so much context to wade through (the bridesmaid dress, the promise, the sexual tension) that there's no way I could set it up right.

Re: 758: Jinkies!
Do you really think context is that important for this arc? : ?
Re: 758: Jinkies!
Ellen and Jamie are currently madly hot for each other, despite Ellen's position of power as essentially the landlord; Ellen's about to GM a game in which Jamie is Scooby Doo. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Especially also casting Lily as Shaggy!

Also, geez, I knew Jamie has holes in his pop culture knowledge, but how does anyone grow up in the USA, or surrounds, or other nations culturally influenced by the USA, e.g. Australia, never having heard of Scooby Doo?!
Re: 758: Jinkies!
I know Jamie's ignorance of pop culture has been a running gag in the strip, but Scooby Doo??
I assume the whole thing is building up to the revelation that he's actually from Mars.

Either this is gonna be the most hilariously-wrong game we're ever gonna see, or they're gonna do a Scooby-Doo marathon as a direct result of Jamie's last question... Or suddenly something else!
Re: 758: Jinkies!
what I really want to know is... does Lily object to Jamie's basic inclusion, or being forced to partner with him (since you know when the party eventually and inevitably splits, her Shaggy will have to be alone with his Scooby).
EDIT: I swear I didn't mean for that to be a sexual pun... but damned if it ain't!

Re: 758: Jinkies!
I think Lilly objects to being Shaggy.
Re: 758: Jinkies!
I'm thinking it's all of the above.
Re: 758: Jinkies!
WHAT!?! Jamie Doesn't Know What A (Who) Scooby-Doo IS???
Even at the young age of 22 years ... I would almost say he had at least heard someone sing the Scooby-Doo theme song.
Hey! Scooby-Doo, where are you? ...
