like red to a bull

unlikely combo [click to embiggen]

When I was in grade school, I got yelled at for not knowing the proper way to skim a text to extract the most info. I’m pretty sure the Buggs would have gotten detention, if not expelled, for their incredible lack of good skimming skills. They just sort of zoom in on their favorite keywords and don’t let something like deeper reading get in the way of fun cosplay.

This is the conversation I imagine happening when this sort of thing turns up on my lunchbox:

Mr Bugg: “It says imperial forces …”
Mrs Bugg: “That means someone gets to be Bugg Vader!”
Mr Bugg: “… and Swedes …”
Mrs Bugg: “DIBS ON THE FUZZY BOOTS AND THE HAT WITH HORNS!”
Mr Bugg: “Coolio. Let’s kick this pig.”
