Description
Page 680 - At the Cherry FactoryI didn’t expect “cultural osmosis” to be a recurring theme in this little D&D webcomic, but here we are.This is pretty experimental as far as jokes go in this comic, but I figured there was no better way to go meta than to go right to the source, the only way my generation knows how.
Transcript:
DM: <roll> Oof! That’s bad. Cherries are rolling down faster than you can sort them. What do you do?
Fluttershy: Panic?
Pinkie Pie: Try and gather them up so they don’t go flying everywhere?
DM: They keep coming faster! Anything else?
Fluttershy: Call for help?
Pinkie Pie: Put them in our bags so they don’t get dirty? I don’t know what else you want!
DM: Do you… heh heh heh… do you start eating them?
Pinkie Pie: Wha?!
DM: To, heh heh, y’know, not get in trouble!
Fluttershy: That sounds like an awful thing to do on the job…
DM: Oh come on, it’s a classic. Does the name I Love Lucy ring any bells? …Okay, maybe NONE of us are old enough for it, but it’s a cultural osmosis thing, and– You know what, perhaps I can just show you I’m talking about.
(YouTube search: I Love Lucy)
Boss: If ONE piece of candy gets past you and into the packing room unwrapped… you’re FIRED!
Twilight Sparkle: Wikipedia says this was THE landmark sitcom of the 50s.
DM: See, there you go.
Lucy: Oh, this is easier.
Ethel: Yeah, we can handle this okay.
Rainbow Dash: So you were trying to make a parallel in our game to… this?
Fluttershy: I can tell where this is going…
Lucy: I think we’re fighting a losing game!
Pinkie Pie: I like it! The escalation’s got really good pacing.
Rarity: So, in the collective unconscious, when people think of this “landmark television comedy,” they think of two women stuffing their faces full of chocolate?
DM: Well… when you put it like THAT…
