OOC - In Game Pop Culture

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Thanks to the fantastically OCD courier_gavin, we have a pop culture list.

However, I realized that people often mention these shows in game and make up meta names for the various characters and we don't have a list of those. (And yes, I realized this because I want Marie to write Vanessa Saturn fanfic in the Writing Workshop and I can't remember the meta names for Logan or Duncan).

At any rate -- Lorelai's going to be teaching a class in the fall where I will actually need this information, so if you could reply here and let me know what meta things you've mentioned in game, it would be a huge help.

ETA: To clarify: I'd like the meta information for any fandoms that have been mentioned in game (I know Nadia watches AKA all the time, etc) so I can make a comprehensive list for my class stuff.

It could be the sequel to Snakes On A Plane.

And by the way... The metta title for

Snakes On A Plane

Should be

Snakes Onna Plane

Because you really can't improve on that title much.

It is the best title ever. But I think there have been a few Fandom versions thrown around. Snakes on a Transport and Serpents on a Transport come to mind.

And now I sleep and leave this discussion to more coherent people!

What's Japanese for "head thwap"?

I don't know the romanji, but I'm sure I can find the kanji in any given one of my Negima! books. ^_^

I'm sure in katakana it'd be something along the lines of "he-a-do su-wa-po" or something equally stupid looking :P

Though I think translating it directly into Japanese wouldn't work-- 'head' would be 'atama', but I doubt 'thwap' has a direct translation, unless we go for sound effects in Japanese. Then lord knows what sort of bastardizing we'd be doing to the language.
