Yeah, me too–though more because not only is Jason one of the few people we ever saw Mike drink with (as of this year he still only orders soda around Ethan), but also because Mike has been much less of an ass to Jason than Ethan.
Well, I don’t know if Mike was the one to make the choice… if Leslie did all the planning it would have been based off of her knowledge or hers and Amber. I know Amber met him once (?) but even so, they were probably looking for the safest solution with what they knew… if that makes sense.
Isn’t it both Ethan and Jason? They’re wearing matching suits and were standing next to mike during the wedding…
can you have two best men? I honestly have no idea, I’m Israeli – So all my knowledge of christian weddings comes from cartoons and such.
I mean, really you can do whatever the heck you want, y’know? I had a coworker who had both his brothers act as “co-best men.”
I also was reading Wikipedia and learned that Michaelangelo acted as the maid of honor at April O’Neil’s wedding and I mean, that’s super weird because he’s a giant talking turtle. (Oh right, also a dude.)
However I think that there’s a bit more than tradition stopping you from calling a dude your ‘maid’ of honor. Keeping in mind that that’s not the sort of maid that cleans thing.
my fiance and i have joked about having a dude of honor and a best lady or something. But only when she gets really worried about my intended best man’s speech.
Poor Mike, I feel sorry for him, gotta get him drunk to be happy acting. I don’t think he acts when he’s with Amber..he’s happy, he will just kill you if you mention it.
I’m more interested in Jason’s reaction. Something about the position of his eyebrow and hands as well as the fact that he’s smiling is really friggin weird.
Plastic doesn’t burn, it melts. Can’t burn ponies any better than you can Transformers, Power Rangers, or whatever the insanely-popular-with-the-younguns-toy-franchise is today.
He clearly slept with Ethan; they were in bed with each other for a couple of strips and he outright tells Robin the next day that he slept with Ethan and Amber that night.
It’s only ambiguous how the “four-fer” involved Faz, IIRC.
Holy shit! Mike is drunk on his wedding!!!! D: Everybody present wil probably die horribly! D:
And while Ethan knowing very well the couple is awkward isn’t the strangest thing XD
Yay!! Mike’s a Brony!! Welcome to the herd dude!! Apple Jack, Doctor Whooves, and G4 (Cuz G3 is more or less Rarity with an obsession with Rainbows) Rainbow Dash FTW!!
I’m more shocked that it was Mike who was the bottom than him being a brony! I guess the tentacle reference makes sense. But how does that even work? Oh! … I suppose there’s an explanation as to how Mike did both at the same time :X
AWW PINKIE MIKE
Oh shoot, Drunk Mike is now out of the closet, that Drunk Mike is a Brony. Makes me think if Amber had any hand in this relevation.
“I wanted to end the night in a different sort of hedge…”–Jeremy Clarkson on TOP GEAR
AHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I remember that comment. What episode was that again?
Pinkie/Mike is my new OTP
Seems a bit late for that considering what even we’re at.
Sorry, Amber can take a backseat. You know how shipping works.
So there’s going to be a love triangle between Pinkie Pie, Mike Warner and Dan vs?
Can the world take that much love and rage?!
I don’t know if that would be the worst fanfic ever, or the best.
I think the best ever slot is already filled by sticks and stones, which is Bloomberg/Tom
Those may break my bones…but at least the words won’t hurt me…externally…

Challenge Accepted.
Bonus points if you hook up Sober!Mike and Pinkamina.
Oh god
Oh God YES
That would only end in cupcakes…
Lots of cupcakes, of everyone else.
Mike and Pinkamina sitting atop a pile of cor- cakes.
Nah, you can’t be a dick to people if they’re dead
Drunk Mike’s still holding out hope.
Drunk Mike…A man after my own heart.
While Sober Mike will rip it out of you.
And then rip it apart.
I think I would really get along with drunk Mike!
Considering how the ceremony went Ethan, you should have just gone for it.
And spice it up. Say it was at the same time. Make it worth their while.
Weird, I kind of thought Jason would have been the best man.
Of course, that’s mostly because It’s Walky still holds so much prominence in my mind since it’s when I first started reading these characters.
Yeah, me too–though more because not only is Jason one of the few people we ever saw Mike drink with (as of this year he still only orders soda around Ethan), but also because Mike has been much less of an ass to Jason than Ethan.
Of course, this is meaningless because now not only does all of Shortpacked! know but he’s getting drunk around all of them anyway.
Well, I don’t know if Mike was the one to make the choice… if Leslie did all the planning it would have been based off of her knowledge or hers and Amber. I know Amber met him once (?) but even so, they were probably looking for the safest solution with what they knew… if that makes sense.
Isn’t it both Ethan and Jason? They’re wearing matching suits and were standing next to mike during the wedding…
can you have two best men? I honestly have no idea, I’m Israeli – So all my knowledge of christian weddings comes from cartoons and such.
Nope. One best man, and the groomsmen stand to his right.
I mean, really you can do whatever the heck you want, y’know? I had a coworker who had both his brothers act as “co-best men.”
I also was reading Wikipedia and learned that Michaelangelo acted as the maid of honor at April O’Neil’s wedding and I mean, that’s super weird because he’s a giant talking turtle. (Oh right, also a dude.)
(And fictional.)
(I’ll stop now.)
I believe that, legally, you only need two witnesses, and it’s nothing more than tradition that groups wedding parties by gender.
However I think that there’s a bit more than tradition stopping you from calling a dude your ‘maid’ of honor. Keeping in mind that that’s not the sort of maid that cleans thing.
my fiance and i have joked about having a dude of honor and a best lady or something. But only when she gets really worried about my intended best man’s speech.
I believe that if the guy has slept with the bride and groom he’s obligated to be the best man. I’m pretty sure that’s how it works.
Huzzah for ponies!
This is the perfect avatar for that comment. Makes me think of the episode where they’re trying to get fluttershy to cheer.
Which I only watched because someone gave me a lot of vodka.
Welcome to the herd, Drunk Mike. WELCOME TO THE HEEEEEEEEERD.
You check in but you don’t check out.
So I guess Mike’s “secret” isn’t so secret anymore, eh?
Not since his proposal, baby.
Everyone knows about it as of his engagement to Amber. It was kind of hard for everyone to miss.
Oh right… forgot. Whoops.
but did all the non-shortpacked people know, or were they told before and i miss it (i do know that jason knew, the rest i dont)
Jason at least knew. I assume some of the other Semme members knew after the whole Dina incident, where he was kept drunk for like a month straight.
I’d say it was more of a “situation” than an “incident”?
Dina kept him drunk for weeks or months at a time. Most of Semme knew.
In fact most of them were in favor of Mike intoxicated 24/7.
i kind of assumed that was the case, but wanted other people to verify so thanks to all that did
Aww all the love in the air! Come on guys, group hug. Yotomoe, I know you want a piece of this.
I’ll do anything for a shoutout! *Hugs*
HUGS FOR EVERYONE!
All of the hugs!! *Hugs*
Hug me and I will rip your bloody arms off.
that’s actually an accurate description of the status of our arms if aforementioned arms were, in fact, ripped off.
I love continuity nods.
ROBIN/LESLIE, MIKE SHIPS U 5EVUR
(my soul died at writing that)
Drunk Mike, anyway. Sober Mike engineered their breakup. (He started the ball rolling by getting whatsisiname elected, and things went on from there.)
Mike’s a brony, huh? Who knew?
No surprise to me.
I remember first seeing that MLP poster in Amber and Mike’s apartment, and theorizing that it was HIS instead of Amber’s.
Now I think that might actually be the case.
It may be that she got to him.
Poor Mike, I feel sorry for him, gotta get him drunk to be happy acting. I don’t think he acts when he’s with Amber..he’s happy, he will just kill you if you mention it.
Never knew Joyce was interested in My Little Pony. Mike, on the other hand, is no surprise to me.
She’s Joyce. And not DOA’s hyperchristian “these cartoons don’t support my theology” Joyce. Of course she’s a fan.
Though what with her zooming around on a jetpack, I kinda figured she’d be more into Rainbow Dash.
Didn’t all her mech commands have the word ‘pony’ in them?
They did.
Walky’s were also odd. “Fly around, crap me out.” XD
Willis knows by now the way to earn my favor is have Robin and Leslie interact in ANY sort of positive way.
I love Manny’s reaction to Ethan.
I’m more interested in Jason’s reaction. Something about the position of his eyebrow and hands as well as the fact that he’s smiling is really friggin weird.
agreed. I think Ethan had some questions to answer when they got home
Of course, drunk Mike is a Brony! IT ALL MAKES SENSE!
Pinkie Pie is my favorite too (^_^)
My favorite will always be Applejack.
Applejack thread represent! /)
(\
Mine too.
Though I would have thought Mike more of a Sodomuffin fan.
Sodomuffin is everyone’s favorite pony. No exceptions.
Otherwise things get ugly REAL fast.
My favourites are the ones on my bonfire.
Burn, ponies, BURN!
Plastic doesn’t burn, it melts. Can’t burn ponies any better than you can Transformers, Power Rangers, or whatever the insanely-popular-with-the-younguns-toy-franchise is today.
Wait, he slept with Mike? When??
Mike slept with both Ethan and Amber to drive a wedge between them.
Possibly literally.
And he did at the same time, somehow.
Figurative crotch-kick.
Way back when, when the highlights were high contrast and the cheeks weren’t so rosy.
For a while I thought Mike had set up FAZ and Ethan but that may be too evil for even Mike.
No sane person would want to set up anyone with Faz.
It was actually never made entirely clear if he slept with Faz or with Mike.
Well, it seems clear now, since Ethan says he did sleep with Mike…
Well, he always thought it was Mike. But there was an implication somewhere along the line that he tricked him into sleeping with Faz.
Of course, if that’s true then I have no idea why Mike wouldn’t have clarified by now.
Well, Mike does tell his parents that he slept with both of them in order to drive a wedge between them.
He clearly slept with Ethan; they were in bed with each other for a couple of strips and he outright tells Robin the next day that he slept with Ethan and Amber that night.
It’s only ambiguous how the “four-fer” involved Faz, IIRC.
The Great Faz rubbed lotion on Ethan’s back and told him he was pretty. Or something. The Great Faz does not have a chart detailing the event.
Becuase Wen took her to make her Horny for the Great Faz?
Took IT, took it.
Stupid english grammer
Wait, hold on. I remember when Mike slept with Ethan and Amber separately. When the hell did Ethan sleep with Amber?
After he saved her from her dad, in the Flashbacked! scene.
In a way drunk Mike is so nice that he could make people feel uncomfortable so sober Mike wins even if he isn’t around to enjoy it.
Holy shit! Mike is drunk on his wedding!!!! D: Everybody present wil probably die horribly! D:
And while Ethan knowing very well the couple is awkward isn’t the strangest thing XD
Maybe if he kills them with kindness.
I’m just waiting for more Walky
Manny’s face in the first panel…
Man, this has gotta be the drunkest Mike’s ever been. Amber might have a dead husband by the end of the night.
I think we can say with fair certainty that that has proven to be a non-problem.
So his wedding gift will be to give her dad a beat down when he sees him in Hell?
Please, please, PLEASE fix Pinky to Pinkie.
I would apologize for being a nerd but we’re all nerds and it grates like seeing someone write Deceptercons.
Maybe Mike’s not really THAT drunk, and is meta-trolling us nitpicky bronies who notice the mispelling and get annoyed by it.
The Grand High Exalted Willis hath smiled upon thee.
There is a subtle but distinct difference in the pronunciation of Pinky and Pinkie. Mike is so drunk he can’t even speak right.
Ermahgerd, Decerptercerns!!!
Ohh I just love drunk mike
Manny’s face in that first panel is priceless. Clearly he did not expect this aspect of Ethan’s history. ;P
Gotta love Drunk Mike
Soo, who else is voting for this wedding ending in Mike singing Pinkie’s “Smile Song” as karaoke in front of the assembled wedding party?
Oh god, if they get a video of that they could blackmail him for life.
Which, as we all know, is not love.
Yay!! Mike’s a Brony!! Welcome to the herd dude!! Apple Jack, Doctor Whooves, and G4 (Cuz G3 is more or less Rarity with an obsession with Rainbows) Rainbow Dash FTW!!
Oh man. I think this is fast becoming my new favorite SP! story arc.
Smiling so hard right now.
I’m more shocked that it was Mike who was the bottom than him being a brony! I guess the tentacle reference makes sense. But how does that even work? Oh! … I suppose there’s an explanation as to how Mike did both at the same time :X
Where did you get that from what was said? Ethan just said they “banged.”
For some reason Pinkie Pie seems logical…. on one side we got the happy partier…. and on the other….. well yeah….
I cannot get over Jason’s weird pincer-hands, did he have an accident?
I know, right?
That’s not Jason; that’s Head Alien in disguise.
Great. Another wedding where someone turns out to be a robot.
Thank god someone else noticed it. Really, just ALL of Jason is strange in this one.
Though, in other news, we have Leslie’s face in, like, every possible angle! Maybe there’s hope for our boy Willis yet!
Hmmm…
If booze removes your inhibitions, would this be Mike’s true feelings?
It would explain A LOT.
According to Willis, Mike’s true feelings are when he’s sober; being drunk just makes him not want to be an ass for some reason.
Maybe his true feelings are that he doesn’t want to act on his true feelings.
“I could hug you guys forever!” *immediately stops hugging them*
Forever_Alone_Together.jpeg
Jason’s face. I can’t.
It doesn’t surprise me at all that Pinke Pie is Drunk Mike’s favorite. I’m pretty sure she’s his drunk spirit animal.
All the awesome people like Pinkie.
I would have thought Drunk Mike was a Fluttershy fan
Oh no. I heard Pinkie’s voice in Mike’s lines.
MUST…REPRESS…
Actually, what I ship now is Drew/Conquest.
