Friends Of Jugs 2014-07-01

[TheDOCTOR]

Judging from the way Paul phonetically writes her pronunciations, I would hazzard a guess that Cricket is from Brooklyn.

"Friends Of Jugs" would make a great name for a Wapsi fanclub.

Or an even better band name.

It may be that Princess Cricket is going through that horrible phase of life where she has to learn she can't get what she wants just because she wants it. And, she's used to using her fists (and other powers?) to get it! People like this suffer greatly until they figure out things aren't always All-Or-Nothing. Worst case scenario -- the Ivan the Terrible outlook: "It's not enough that I win; my enemy must lose!" Now there's a recipe for scorched earth!

One sneaky thing I learned as a manager type in the military is how to pair obnoxious people to get useful performance. Got a KnowItAll? Put them under the thumb of a Perfectionist and give them a complicated task and short deadline. Allowing they don't kill each other, you will get results!

M'lady Cricket is likely soon to get an attitude adjustment. That's what school is for!

Well, Cricket has taken a liking to Atsali. See how she was angry, ready to stomp whoever might be bothering her, after the twin's comment? Sure, she's loud and overbearing and has a temper-and oh,do I see trouble ahead!-but she's a friendly sort. *fastens seatbelt, going to be a bumpy ride*

Let the Jug Band jokes begin --- go!

I have noticed the traffic on this forum is way down lately. Has everyone gone to the facebook site instead and this has become a forgotten forum?

I dunno, I think with the more character-development-driven plotline of late there's just not as much to talk about day to day. We haven't really had a weekly cliffhanger of late either...

I took a hiatus from the forums because my activity here was impacting my productivity at work...and then there was the comic hiatus...and now, what txmystic said.

We few, we happy few, we band of jugs;
For she to-day that tans her boobs with me
Shall be my sister; be she ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle her condition;
And gentlewomen in Minneapolis now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their Maidenforms cheap whiles any speaks
That vollyball'd with us upon Fouth Of July's weekend.

I was thinking that if Shelly ends up inheriting her dad's business, and if she and Justin are still an item, she could rename it "Love and Sprockets".

EDIT: correcting Justin's name

...UM? who's Jason? and when did he hook up with Shelly? there's Monica and Kevin, Owen was her best guy-friend in the band, but he eloped with Lakshmi, then there's Darin the bartender, but i can't seem to recall anyone named Jason...

Ugh... meant "Justin" of course. Not the first time I've brainslipped that way... probably thinking of Jason and the Argonauts...

Corrected - thanks!

If I wasn't concerned of jinxing the improvised inspiration by overthinking it, I'd have done the entire St. Crispin's speech.
