Robotech Crossover question

[batlchip]

Lynn Kyle:"Rape m-(boom!)
Annie:"I don't think so not on this universe. "

[taalismn]

Sean: "Honey! Have you seen my Rapeman[sup]tm[/sup] costume?"

Marie: (Tackling Sean) "I'm Rapegirl..."

Okay, I'm going to call this one out.
The whole Rapeman schtick is NOT FUNNY. By its very nature, its very implications, and even its name. I NEVER found it funny, but it keeps coming back up like a bad case of the dry heaves(the type that hurt bad but never actually manage to expel the bad stuff). Yet somehow it keeps cropping up. It's not just that it's overused, like we used the Whately-HPLovecraft bit to the point that I had to repeatedly depthcharge and kill the character off before everybody got the point, it's used too freakin' much, and in lieu of coming up with something actually original and/or funny.

As far as I'm concerned, the whole Rapeman thing is getting a kick hard in the balls, and then getting what the walking carrot got in The Thing(the original)...cooked with high voltage electricity until it no longer moves and is incapable of returning to life.


Sexual innuendo can be handled a lot more comedically without becoming cruel and nasty.

Really, people, try harder. I know you're all better than this.

Meanwhile, in Annie's Toy Chest...

Cthulhu: "So, who's the newbe?"

Hild: (Dressed as a Rozen Maiden) "Lady Primrose apparently..."

Wow. No one is really safe then if Annie got her.

Dracula knew his Halloween had gone to hell as Dana and Minmei appeared in silk nighties and tried to drag him to their respective lairs.

Vlad Tepes actually tried to impale HIMSELF.

It's the only honourable way out...

To taalismn: Can't argue your point there. Rewriting...

Sean: "Honey! Have you seen my costume?"

Marie: (Tackling Sean, dressed as Wonder Woman) "You aren't going to need a costume tonight dear..."

Ya, they need some alone time.

Nice. I heard and saw someone, I think it was on YouTube, who actually did some calculations, and found that he isn't as strong as we think. IIRR, Superman, and Goku could been him, again, IIRR.

"So, Desdemona, how was your vacation out-dimension? Enjoy Europe much?"
'...it was too much like work."
"Oh?"

"Okay...that sounds more like a CZ extraction than a simple open-the-Gate-and-schlep-the-luggage-through."

"-she killed them all, right?"
"Creatively, too. That is, none of them had seen an AT-field before. None of them will be seeing one again either. I'm willing to bet she took a big chunk out of the morally lower end of the European and maybe international business set. Me, I just got to do mercy shootings."

(Actually, reports say the Maus was a pretty smooth ride, it having been designed by Ferdinand Porsche and all, and fairly fast for its size...it's just that it was ugly-ass heavy-the operational plan was to have it ford rivers in pairs, one Maus supplying electrical power to the other until it got across, then the first across would return the favor- and it had hideous fuel efficiency.....and that's without factoring in the fact that it would have been a magnet for every artillery piece and ground attack aircraft in the area)

How does the old joke go? If you want to know who you're facing, fire a shot in their direction. If the response is several measured shots, you're facing the British. If the response is a sustained burst of machine gun fire, it's Germans. If there's a pause and then artillery starts raining down on you, it's Americans. And if wave after wave of tanks and infantry come at you, it's Russians.

-ZWEEETTT-
A section of wall falls down and two robed figures step into the room, glowing wands of plasma light held before them.
Mystery Figure 1: "We're here to put an end to your invasion of Naboo."
Robotech Master: "Naboo?! Is that your name for your planet, micronian? I thought it was called Earth?"
Mystery Figure 2: "I sense confusion, Master."
Robotech Master: "No confusion. You DIE!"
(The blaster on the underside of their Protoculture Cap starts blazing away at the newcomers, who automatically bat the bolts back at the Masters, wiping them out)
Qui-Gon: "Control, Obi-Wan, control. I wanted to take them ALIVE."
Obi-Wan: "Oops. Well, maybe this will stop the invasion."
Qui-Gon: "I'm puzzled; these don't look like Nemodians...could we have made a wrong turn somewhere? After fighting those giant droids..."
The two misplaced Jedi were still trying to figure that one out when when Dana Sterling and Zor Prime arrived on the scene. Zor Prime's frustration at being cheated of revenge was pathos indeed....

Master, I hate you even more if that is possible. You WILL pay for this.

NNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"So, Desdemona, how was your vacation out-dimension? Enjoy Europe much?"
'...it was too much like work."
"Oh?"
:"I'll answer for the boss, since I did pickup and clean-up."
"Okay...that sounds more like a CZ extraction than a simple open-the-Gate-and-schlep-the-luggage-through."
"Boss decided to take her vacation on the cheap like a rougher and took some local advice where to hang out. Got roped into an 'Elite Hunt Club'. Die, or kill and join. They never considered the third option."
"-she killed them all, right?"
"Creatively, too. That is, none of them had seen an AT-field before. None of them will be seeing one again either. I'm willing to bet she took a big chunk out of the morally lower end of the European and maybe international business set. Me, I just got to do mercy shootings."
"Oh well, I was really hoping the eltee would have a chance to unwind."
"Oh, she unwound alright, like a crossbow...or a nuke. But maybe next time she'll take her leave someplace quieter...like Roanapura..."

Now that's bad. So witch earth was this? Just can't place it.!

The 'Hostel' series of live-action movies...which are essentially eurotrash gorefests about luckless foreign tourists in Europe being lured into underground snuff-film clubs where they're offed in agonizing ways for jaded clientele.
Roanapura, on the other hand, IS anime: Black Lagoon.

"How's your gas mileage in that thing? What, a gallon per every 300 ft?"

Actually, he was killed by the fall when the floor caved in...

Shell didn't roll free of the rack and crush him?

(Actually, reports say the Maus was a pretty smooth ride, it having been designed by Ferdinand Porsche and all, and fairly fast for its size...it's just that it was ugly-ass heavy-the operational plan was to have it ford rivers in pairs, one Maus supplying electrical power to the other until it got across, then the first across would return the favor- and it had hideous fuel efficiency.....and that's without factoring in the fact that it would have been a magnet for every artillery piece and ground attack aircraft in the area)

And heavy bombers most likely.

Why do I suddenly have visions of zents using them as go carts ? (By the way if the germans had put them in production and on the front lines. Most allied tanks and infantry would have screamed for air support and arty.

And ran way most likely also.

Or they would have just waited for the Germans to run out of fuel....then the Mauses would have just been overpriced pillboxes, and the Allies would have just shelled the snot out of them.

They would need some big guns to pen them.

The Americans and the British would shelled the snot out of them.The Russians would have bombed and shelled them into metal stumps

How does the old joke go? If you want to know who you're facing, fire a shot in their direction. If the response is several measured shots, you're facing the British. If the response is a sustained burst of machine gun fire, it's Germans. If there's a pause and then artillery starts raining down on you, it's Americans. And if wave after wave of tanks and infantry come at you, it's Russians.

I'd say that is fairly accurate.

Lol you sit are well and truly informed

Agree.

The Robotech Masters are in their command chamber, orchestrating the final attack on Earth...
-ZWEEETTT-
A section of wall falls down and two robed figures step into the room, glowing wands of plasma light held before them.
Mystery Figure 1: "We're here to put an end to your invasion of Naboo."
Robotech Master: "Naboo?! Is that your name for your planet, micronian? I thought it was called Earth?"
Mystery Figure 2: "I sense confusion, Master."
Robotech Master: "No confusion. You DIE!"
(The blaster on the underside of their Protoculture Cap starts blazing away at the newcomers, who automatically bat the bolts back at the Masters, wiping them out)
Qui-Gon: "Control, Obi-Wan, control. I wanted to take them ALIVE."
Obi-Wan: "Oops. Well, maybe this will stop the invasion."
Qui-Gon: "I'm puzzled; these don't look like Nemodians...could we have made a wrong turn somewhere? After fighting those giant droids..."
The two misplaced Jedi were still trying to figure that one out when when Dana Sterling and Zor Prime arrived on the scene. Zor Prime's frustration at being cheated of revenge was pathos indeed....

Took the wrong turn at Alberkerky?

"Not those either! Keep the heavy iron OUTSIDE!"
"But we can still shoot in, right?"
