Mario is not the star, Mario's the plumber. Muahaha. --Kronf (talk) 12:24, 29 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Am I the only person intrigued by the fact that he used European quotes («»)?162.158.79.185 22:21, 2 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

     Those aren't European; they're French.  And I don't think he meant them to be quotation marks, they remind me of how the work "1-up" flashes on the screen in early mario games.  That's a hard thing to represent with text, so maybe that's what he was going for. 162.158.79.185 19:07, 27 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
iirc chevrons are also used in Russian. 172.70.134.161 17:47, 13 February 2022 (UTC)BumpfReply

Bowser is definitely better! And the trash talk is ON POINT! Nice work, Ponytail! 172.68.34.61 19:30, 6 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Aren't we all missing the "For our anniversary" part? I feel this drastically changes the joke. 172.69.222.164 10:51, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Not really... Both have boyfriends (who observe a "dating anniversary" milestone), and both arrange 'something special' to enhance their relationship (presuming that both arrangements are to the liking of the respective girls, as they seem to be). But one of the girls gets a markedly more major 'something special' than the other (again, depends upon relative feelings). What more is there to that? Apart from the subsequent attitude and phraseology of the 'winner' between the two. 172.71.178.103 13:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ah, dating anniversary... It was funnier when I understood it as a marriage anniversary. 172.69.43.226 09:18, 31 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
