Episode 03: The Big Stone Face Knows Everything

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

[Linkara. Futon. He actually looks pretty pleased - just about any child of the nineties should recognize those shirts, and he is no exception. He cues a very familiar opening theme and lets it fade when he starts talking.]

For those of you wearing the team shirts but don't have any idea what they're for - and I'm pretty sure that's most of you - here's a few pointers.

One, [And he holds up one finger] listen to Olmek. He knows what he's talking about.
Two, [Another finger] stay away from the Temple Guards.
And three, [Ae holds up a third finger], don't let the Blue Barracudas try to put the Silver Monkey together. We don't need any broken records.

Have fun in the temple~

So you know what all these competitions are?

...What temple guards?

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this whole show was pretty popular in the 90s.

The guards that throw you out of the temple if you get caught.

"The 90s?"

Oh, yikes! Well, I'll just have to not get caught!

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the decade between 1990 and 1999, when everything pop-culture tried to go all extreeeeeeme and didn't quite get there? The stuff that's now today's nostalgia?

Hang on, you're what, fourteen? Fifteen? You...probably don't remember most of the 90s.

[This is Linkara recalibrating for someone who doesn't get the joke. He is NOT having an "oh God I'M OLD" moment. Nope.]

Yeah, good luck with that.

[Sora's just giving Linkara a blank look for most of that. However time is measured on Destiny Islands, it definitely hasn't been around long enough for there to have BEEN a 1990.]

I'm fifteen. I've just never even heard of a "90s," so I don't get what you're talking about.

Okay...

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

Aren't you going to wish me luck?

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

Come on, what do you take me for?

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

[Oh you.]

Clearly I am NOT a nineties kid since I knew nothing about this XD;;;

DUDE!

Why wasn't I invited?!

Whaaaaaaat get you to YouTube!

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

You were too extreme.

I-I've watched an episode now?

[liefeldisgod.livejournal.com]

I can never be extreme enough, dude.

...What's wrong with them putting the Silver Monkey...together....whatever that is?

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

The Silver Monkey is a really easy three-piece puzzle, and the Blue Barracudas are the record holder for worst Silver Monkey attempt ever.

[acceptedburden.livejournal.com]

You seem to be quite knowledgeable in these challenges.

[eyebrow raise, note that he is wearing blue] I am not sure about this Silver Monkey, but I feel as though you are implying that I and my teammate are not capable of succeeding in the endeavor.
