Yeah, Action Johnny’s a bit too real for real life, man.
Sorry, I never met a girl or woman who’s even heard of Jonny Quest before. Apologies, M’aam.
Cary is a girl’s name!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
Jonny Quest was absolutely the most awesome cartoon around when I was a kid.
And, of course, Jonny grew up to be Otter from Animal House.
Sorry, @anon29631895, I just had to give him a like. Have you kept tally of how many times @OtherMichael has said this?
Now, come on. I’ve seen it done at least three other times.
Not by me.
And it would be mean to do it more than once.
The name is cross enough to bear.
That’s two right there!
Nope. Completely different type of joke [and this comment is excepted, as it is a gloss on the others].
The first accused @anon29631895 of having a girls name.
The second merely said he had a name that gave him trouble – I would imagine that the dentist’s kids sniggered when they heard it, for example. Or heard “cash and carry” more than once.
But he’s got a q
in his last name, and that’s only 1-step removed from having an x
in your name. Mad props for that.
I was going to use a different finger…
Definitely a trope of its time. I have a collection of Christopher Cool books where his Apache sidekick is Geromino Johnson.
Geronimo Johnson? By Jack Lancer? And there’s the Eiffel Tower front-and-center?
What are you trying to imply? Simple red-blooded American fun, like Boys Life.
Didn’t Jonny sell shes? When I got the DVD set, it included a tv ad for snekers, as a bonus.
But I think I also saw ads in the comic books way back when.
