I appreciate your willingness to explain, if not the knowledge I possess as a result. The internet is awful.

Also maybe this is me being a dummy, but like - if you're already naked, won't you dry out pretty quickly? Most of getting caught in a sudden downpour is your clothes getting soaked so even if you get inside you're wearing wet clothes all day.

Did Mookie's hornyposting actually undermine the lovely newspaper joke?

He absolutely did. Nothing about the events surrounding the ink witch in the early part make any sense in retrospect. I think Arudak also got some pretty massive retcons and even the bit with Redactor.

Snout will arrive at the library, realize that Thelonious still has his card and look sad. Then Thelonius will appear and hand him his library card, along with all the necessary forms for the orc library filled out and a letter of apology for Jerkface Orc's behavior. He will also give Snout a dreamy smile. There will be hugs.

Get this depressingly plausible spec out of this thread he reads goonsir (or goonmadam, whichever you prefer)

SpaceBalls is still a fun ride (we got the creeps, the bleeps and the sweeps), but it still has all those Dru-ish princess jokes which are pretty fuckin yikes in TYOOL 2021, plus whatever I'm not remembering off the top of my head.

I'm guessing Mookie's not really over his sexual hangups from Dominic Deegan times, much as he'd like to pretend otherwise. So the established female characters can't have sex, because that would make them sluts. Kind of makes me wonder if that was the reason he added Corpse Wife to the mix - Ink Witch was clearly establish as Snout's love interest, but he couldn't bring himself to draw a sex scene with her, so enter new love interest Corpse Bride. Same thing happens, enter Swamp Witch, and this time he rushed the sex scene, so it wouldn't happen again.

This is is isn't it. God drat it.
