“Should we all be stocking up on chocolate jimmies and toilet paper?” I should note I’m watching this video in March 2020. Let that context speak for itself.

[@DeadHandtheSurvivor]

I mean, Sam and Max do have a time machine... I like to think they visited 2020 at some point and brought up our current event as a "obscure reference". Feels like something Sam would do. (Or the game just pick random stock pile items from a hat and put it in his dialog but that isn't as fun.)

[@LuckiSir]

True that

[@WTFisTingispingis]

Man this actually sounds like a lost Venture Brothers episode.

[@AndrevusWhitetail]

AtticWarrior1994 I wouldn't be suprised if one day they reboot VB and make an episode out of this.

[@ejelecflametails6657]

i think it's still going

Brock beat up Uranus Invader Zim

[@whohow97]

This was just a fucking set up for that last Uranus joke. God I love the writing in this game

[@jakebryant2481]

This would actually make a good episode of Venture Bros, might even have these guys cameo

[@Rogerv1032]

Anyone else feel their referencing the Mars Attack cards that were released in 1962?

[@woopnavevo3507]

I wish this was a podcast

[@Troninater]

YOU SIR, just might have the best idea ever: Characters from seemingly random entertainment media sitting down at the table playing poker and shooting the breeze about life as if they all live in one giant MCU like world!

I know this comment was 5 years ago, but with artificial intelligence anything is possible nowadays

[@joed2431]

I actually got into collecting a type of alien invasion cards. they're called mars attack and they are made by the guys who made the alien invasion cards.

[@Dill_Pickle1997]

Which versions? The original 1962 run? Reprints of the ‘62 run. The 1994 run mars attacks archives? Mars attacks heritage? Mars attacks the revenge? Mars attacks occupation?

[@FloofPuppy]

I loved this convo because it was trading card related. Now, hearing the whole story... I love it even more.

[@kylestubbs8867]

Okay, pause for about 3 seconds at 2:22 to get the full effect of the conversation.

[@Sonicsgirl13]

"Something-something-butt joke?" Lol

[@ChaoticTeen16]

I did not know there was a full string of dialogues for that! This was hilarious!

[@synaesthesia2010]

i would buy a compilation of these conversations, they are hilarious

[@Dill_Pickle1997]

I don’t know if anyone has brought this up but I’m assuming this card set is possibly based off of “Mars Attacks”?

[@markincolo]

Pvenus. The V is silent. GO TEAM VENTURE!

Johnny P The Gulf City Lethal Sperg well there was an “incident” at the Venture compound yesterday and well Dean’s shoebox of collectible trading cards kinda got hit by some stray flamethrower fire.

Tough Sun Well I figured I got about 3 or 4 days to replace ‘em before Dean notices they’re missing, but I dunno where to start.

[@TheFallenLegendX]

You know something they are talking about the movie mars attacks it had those same.cards but they were going to be banned since the cards were too graphic even for mature audiences since they couldny get permission to say it they just called it alien invasion cards
