You know what drove me nuts about Archie comics?

Sentences (except questions) ended only with exclamation points. Never a period. Never, ever.

They must all have been shouting at each other.

Oh, and after a while, you realized they were recycling the same three or four story lines.

But still. NO PERIODS. :eyes:

1. That's what I thought you were going to say.

"Archie, this is such a great movie!"

"Yeah, Ronnie, but it's kinda crowded!"

"Maybe we should be quiet!"

"But the editors hearing is going bad!"

2. Lots of comic books are that way...

Even romance comics. I wonder why.

Or, should I say:

Lots of comic books are that way! Even romance comics! I wonder why!

3. Actually were archie and moose friends?

9. Now that merely shows bad taste and no forward thinking

Veronica was cuter and would have been a lot more fun between the sheets. Good girl vs. Bad girl? Definitely Bad girl! So Veronica it is!

Sassy, shapely, and a father who could make you VP in one of his companies.

16. The hardest I've ever laughed...

... one episode of Night Court, where the John Laroquette character accidentally ate a plate of hash brownies which had been siezed as evidence in a trial.

He was doing weird stoner shit throughout the whole episode, but the piece de resistance was when they were in the cafeteria...

... he says nothing through the whole scene, just plays with his food. All of a sudden, he holds a waffle against the side of his head... "Look! I'm Archie!"

I seriously almost wet myself I was laughing so hard.

18. No, that was Reggie

He was damn near a drag queen in their hippie phase.

19. Yes, of course

but you have to admit that Jughead Jones was Maynard G. Krebs before Maynard G. Krebs was; that's got to count for something!:)
