DaveD 195 Posted September 8, 2011 Huge Bloom County fan. So I've been wracking (racking? wrecking?) my brain trying to understand the Berke Breathed reference. The whole blackout/censored concept is ringing some faint bells but I can't pinpoint where I'm hearing them from. Care to shed a little light? Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 11,921 Posted September 9, 2011 I can't find the exact strip at the moment, but the punchline was lifted pretty-much directly from a Bloom County strip (including the censored part). I forget who said the line, but I think Opus' response was something like, "Well, I'll pass that right along." I've done this before with a Peanuts strip (again, can't find the original at the moment - if I can dig them up, I'll post them). Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 11,921 Posted September 16, 2011 Found it. "'Toons For Our Times", page 15: I was pretty close. 1 Quote Link to comment
