I don't see a reason for the use of "curries" vs. the normal "carries", except that the explanation writer is adding an additional (unnecessary) pun. I'd suggest changing it back to the idiomatic "carries on". -- 16:34, 2 October 2019 (UTC) | I don't see a reason for the use of "curries" vs. the normal "carries", except that the explanation writer is adding an additional (unnecessary) pun.

This was posted way earlier than usual. Still technically Wednesday 00:02 UTC, but usual posting is mid-late afternoon UTC. 172.69.22.134 01:00, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- I noticed that too. That's really weird... I wonder what caused it? 172.68.211.244 06:14, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- It happens from time to time. See e.g. discussion of 2188:_E_Scooters. --Lupo (talk) 06:56, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
Note that the joke about how to pluralize names ("Steph Currys" vs. "Stephs Curry") is also present in "How to win an election" in the "How to" book. There it's in the form of "Bob Caseys" vs. "Bobs Casey". 162.158.91.221 07:53, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
So glad this site exists! I came here thinking the explanation would be about how to cook curry :-)141.101.99.185 11:28, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
I don't think 'signature play' was an intentional pun on the signature (aka type) of a function, but great catch. 162.158.62.181 12:47, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
Is the category Category:Comics featuring real people applicable here? It does seem to feature some comics where real people are only mentioned... Others with real people are not in that category... --Lupo (talk) 12:56, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
"... but he curries on..."??
The explanation includes the sentence "Ponytail doesn't believe him but he curries on...".
I don't see a reason for the use of "curries" vs. the normal "carries", except that the explanation writer is adding an additional (unnecessary) pun. I'd suggest changing it back to the idiomatic "carries on". -- 16:34, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
The explanation states that Cueball is implying that his school is from a state other than California, but I don't see any such implication in the comic. 162.158.79.35 18:20, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
