This council meeting seems to be going rather well…
Seems to be a little tight, but they are wrapping up the loose ends.
if i was in the comic, I would treat Minerva to a candlelight dinner, a dance under the moonlight, massage her stress away, and let her sleep with peace and quiet.
Odd, why did Samantha’s husband’s actors’ name get censored?
Sometimes, even though I know this comic and “I Dream of a Jeannie Bottle” take place in the same universe, I forget that that universe is one where sitcoms are real…
But if Sammie was in line of succession and got bumped because she married Darren, how is Minnie related to her (Samantha) that she’s (Minnie’s) got the Council position instead of Serena? Or did Serena make it clear that “Responsibility’s not my bag.”?
not that kind of Dick. and i think you might be a bit confused here, the Jeannie/Bewitched crossover was finished long ago.
Nah, Foradain is in the right path. I had to tie up that plot line over here some day, so those names aren’t there just because. Luckily for me, that family tree was always open to interpretation, and Witch society is mine to decide the hierarchy…
Speaking as an Spanish speaking though, I am still not sure how all the Richard’s in the world agree to that nickname…
There are a number of male names that are also used as terms for the male body parts–Johnson, Peter, etc. There’s pretty much an ongoing joke that back in William Shakespeare’s time, just about EVERYTHING was a sexual reference, to the point where it was impossible to speak more than a few sentences without stumbling upon one. For example, the word “nothing” was used to refer to a maiden’s lady parts–hence the double entendre in the title of the play “Much Ado About Nothing”.
Also, nice reference to the “haven’t slept in two years” bit–going all the way back to when this meeting was supposed to start, two years ago.
@Carlos: did you get what i said about Minerva? I ask cause she could really use all of that.
Didn’t wanted to break it to ya, but assuming you are still a Mortal in comic world, you may end looking a little greenier and finding your new home inside a pond after the “hi” that would follow her “no interested”
oy.
Granny Baba would be Baba Yaga, I presume.
That was my assumption, too.
