What I wouldn’t give…Posted Mon, 8/2/2010 by Dave

…to attend this school.
Those of you who know me know that I love to make references to internet memes. Some of you will be able to identify this as a problem in my creative life. Namely, that discussing things that are funny on the internet can be funny in person, or in another medium, but only to a certain degree. The buck has to stop eventually. The idea for this short, weeklong arc is for me to get all the internet jokes I can out in three strips, so that hopefully there will be a nice, long, meme-free stretch of comics in the upcoming months.
That’s the idea, anyway. Execution’s a whole different ballgame.

Chloe, being a hand-me-down heirloom bear, is obviously TOO OLD.
Orihime is holding a spinning leek (for purity). Here’s the original meme:

I’m betting Milhouse won’t last long before he gets expelled.
I am so excited for this week’s strips.
Boy, is it ever.
Is that Millhouse in the back of panel 3?
My guess would be that the guy in the V mask represents members of Anonymous (Scientology protestors).
And I’m pretty sure the girl with the celery is Orihime from this video:

Okay, my knowledge of memes is ludicrous next to most Brownies, but I’m gonna take a stab at this. I see: All your base, herd u liek mudkips, JLP of the USS Enterprise, a lolcat, the o’rly bird, Pedobear, and…Three Wolf Moon? Dunno who the V mask and the girl with the celery are.
