Jaaaason!

Location: Squad 128's apartment
I’m having trouble determining whether this one’s missing some markers, or if it just features my three fair-haired white people. Â It’s pretty sparse.
Mike has an abductee power that allows him to magically produce tea and crumpets?! No wonder Jason hangs out with him!
So he is a british foods and drinks dispenser.I would pay good money for something that produces foods and drinks out of thin air.
“Share and enjoy.”
OK now that she knows this the question now is HOW desperate is she?
It’s a momentous occasion! For the first time since the second week of the reruns, Danny has been knocked from the top of the leaderboard! Joyce’s 406th appearance puts her #1, with Walky still a distant fourth.
I am curious, if we looked at the entire Walkyverse (Shortpacked! included), who would wind up #1? Would it be Walky? Joyce? Shortpacked had longevity but an ensemble cast, but would Mike’s combined appearances push him to the top (assuming you didn’t separately count Mike and Drunk!Mike)?
This makes me very curious. I’d guess it would be either Joyce, Robin, or Batman.
Or maybe it’s Ninja Rick, and we just haven’t spotted him in most of his appearances.
I’m assuming Ethan
Looking at just Shortpacked alone, Amber’s appearance list goes 58 pages. Ethan’s goes 63 pages, as does Robin’s (it appears Ethan wins 630-626, though). Mike is actually fifth at best, behind Leslie, and it appears that whereever “drunk mike” is tagged, “mike” is also separately tagged.
So, overall, it’s probably Robin. Ironically, she has all of what, five appearances in DoA?
The problem with looking at Shortpacked’s tags is that there are a lot of strips from the first four to five years that are still untagged (I’ve been re-reading).
I’ve also been counting appearances as I go, and by June 2012, Ethan has 743 (plus 159 over on the ToyNews strip) while Robin has 606 (plus 48). That gap probably grows narrower once I count the last two years.
I still love Danny’s character description. “Danny knew he could either be right or charismatic. He chose the former.”
Don’t forget DannyWilcox (no space). That preserved his lead for one more day, but it’s gone now.
… That…that isn’t crumpets….
I could see those as two crumpets, one stacked on top of the other.
They’d be exceptionally large crumpets.
I would more say that would be an exceptionally small teacup.
“Fair-haired white people”? Doesn’t Joyce have brown hair? I’d go with missing markers
Very light brown, though. Not blonde, but I’d count it as fair.
I think she was called Blonde in DOA, too.
I think she is an ash-blonde and or sandy brown. For light and dark think the color of dry versus wet beach sand.
As someone born blonde, there are lots of weird shades in-between.
A lot of the hair ( on ,y head and body ) is both at the same time.
They ( the same hairs ) reflect Golden blonde from a narrow angle and is medium brown from all others.
Poor Mike! He tries to be nice when he’s drunk but it’s such a weird thing to see that all his colleagues hate him that way!
Crumpets? In her place i wouldn’t accept his gift,unless he had waffles. I just like waffles with jam.
I don’t think it’s so much that Mike’s colleagues hate him when he’s drunk and being ‘nice’. I think they are more likely terrified.
Drawing white, blonde people, over featureless white walls…
What a good way to spare your markers and make them last a few years 😀
Fortunately Willis is working digitally rather than with markers that can run out now, or we might be looking at Whitney McJority’s dream world.
Jaaassoon, where did you go?
You got me searchin’ high and low,
My heart is racin’.
Press ‘X’ to Jason!
Tea and Crumpets?
is he trying to woo Joyce or make Jason jealous?
<<<Suddenly realizes I have no idea what a Crumpet actually is .
A crumpet is kind of like a breakfast biscuit but has fruit in it and is served dry or with butter.
Crumpets don’t have fruit. I mean…they can, but that’s not part of the standard recipe.
They’re pancake-like, similar in size to an english muffin, with bubbles through them.
Weird. they look just like English Muffins, ( which are not recognized as real muffins in any Muffintology Centers worldwide. Muffin-heresies. Breakfast Biscuit, Edible Hockey pucks; softtack sure )
My prima facie opinion ( short of eating one.. crumping? ) is they appear to be an obsolete and inferior breakfast technology, superseded by waffles, crepes, actual muffins, and bagels .
Although, extra bubbles intrigues me. Are they special in some way or is it just retro-appeal?
It sounds like a slur, doesnt it?
“Ya god-damned Crumpet. Your tradition be damned,
Blood Pudding is not, and will never be lube”
I humbly offer this terruble idea to the Great Willis. I could easily imagine DOA Sal calling Jason a Crumpet in their next hate-fuck.
Or Penny , anytime.
