page 1302 – Definitely Not Unhealthy
Another one of those pages where it didn’t really hit me until it was done that I’d written it as though it were going up just a couple DAYS after the last one, not a full week. But darn it, I just couldn’t move on once it hit me that, despite all the crazy faces Avi made last time, I hadn’t thought to draw him making… THAT face. That one face all the anime go to when somebody’s REALLY about to go crazy, with the buggy eyes and the top-down angle and the fisheye lens effect. So I basically wiped up an entire page just to do that… and couldn’t quite pull it off. I mean, yeah, the kid definitely looks nuts and all, but there’s just something about that warped perspective that I couldn’t get right after hours and hours and HOURS of tinkering. But then, I dunno why that should surprise me, perspective has ALWAYS been my sworn enemy.
BUT ANYWAY, if all goes well, a new set of TWC Voting Incentives SHOULD start up this Friday, and to mark the occasion, I’m really gonna TRY to get another batch of old Incentives re-posted to the Gallery by then. This time I will RESIST he urge to clean up any of the art, so I should be able to get a whole lot more done, but I guess we’ll see won’t we?
EDIT: Eh, why wait? Here’s the last bit of 2014 Voting Incentives right away!
1/17 EDIT: And a SECOND batch! Now the first Patreon MadLib comic is up on the Gallery too!
1/20 EDIT: OKAY!!! It’s even later than last time, but THE NEW INCENTIVE SERIES HAS FINALLY BEGUN!
I’m thinking a bathroomroom is something like a much larger special room that contains many multiple other bathrooms, each personalized, with various choices and features, and a huge lobby/waiting area with various forms of entertainment, arcades, movie viewing, etc. – because of course Avi’s family is so rich that even the convenience stores they frequent are so luxurious that their bathroomrooms are the size of Grand Central Station.
Other options for what a Bathroomroom is includes a room made out of Bathrooms. As in, a room hidden between at least five, and usually six, different Bathrooms. One above, one below and three to four surrounding it. Usually for the easy access to the pipework of said bathrooms. The entrances of these bathrooms are also typically deceptively far away from each other, making one think that the bathrooms are far away from each other.
Of course, that’s a logical answer, so it MUST be wrong for FOT.
Another answer is that it’s a Bathroom made entirely out of Bathroom Accessories, or Bathroom Necessities made into Bathroom Accessories. For example, a Toilet made entirely out of Soap Holders, a Shower that looks like a Giant Tube of Toothpaste, and what appears to be a Mouse-sized Toilet that works as a Soap Holder.
…Which is still too logical and fitting for FOT. Ed8’s idea wins.
The “janitor mafia” has to be a coincidence, because an actual reference to “Let’s Cortex”, the Talkhaus rpg game DMed by Horikawa Otane featuring raocow, Cats-on-Nice, Sturg, and Ditocoaf as players and uploaded to raocow’s YouTube channel, would be awesome but incredibly unlikely.
Sadly, if there’s a question of whether or not I’m cool enough to have made a reference on purpose, the answer is pretty much always “no.”
Come on, Blitz, give yourself some credit! You do occasionally make references to things on purpose. It’s just that they’re typically kept to background gags rather than being a small joke inside of a larger joke.
Anybody can make references on purpose, you have to be really cool to be able to make them without even intending to! It’s like hitting a shot behind your back without even looking at the target! 😀
I can’t recall exactly when, but I seem to remember that the Janitor Mafia has been mentioned a long time ago at least once before in FOT – since FOT’s been around since ’08, that may count as the ‘original’ and the other as the reference 😉
