Editing Talk:1496: Art Project

What is "Cutie"? If we're introducing a new character name, I'd say it would be the last "Megan". Her hair is longer and therefore not the prototypical Megan. Should the names be switched? [[User:Azule|Azule]] ([[User talk:Azule|talk]]) 06:19, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
:Someone on the internet is wrong - so I'm switching things around. Megan is number 2, and Danish is number 4. [[User:Pmw57|Pmw57]] ([[User talk:Pmw57|talk]]) 07:33, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
:Not convinced. I think number 2 is a character we haven't seen before, and number 4 is Megan. Her hair's not much longer than usual, and a LOT shorter than Danish's.[[Special:Contributions/141.101.99.4|141.101.99.4]] 14:14, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
::This is definitely not Danish, who has much longer hair, and should be meaner or at least with Black Hat, and number two girl has much shorter hair than Megan. I have corrected this error- --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 15:11, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

The first one looks like a selfie?--[[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.144|108.162.250.144]] 06:43, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

The art projects all appear to be examples of narcissism, as the artists are only showing themselves. {{unsigned ip|108.162.216.190}}

This comic is obviously poking fun at those projects of people taking a photo of themselves every day for several months/years and upload the resulting video to YouTube. --[[User:NeatNit|NeatNit]] ([[User talk:NeatNit|talk]]) 08:13, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

The last seems to be a reference to "Andy Warhol eating a Hamburger" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ejr9KBQzQPM

Isn't it (partially) satire on "Boyhood"? --[[User:JakubNarebski|JakubNarebski]] ([[User talk:JakubNarebski|talk]]) 08:42, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

The first art project also reminds me of the performance of John Cage's A(s)SL(ow)(a)SP(ossible) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_Slow_as_Possible) in Halberstadt which has a sceduled duration of 639 years.--[[Special:Contributions/108.162.254.32|108.162.254.32]] 10:01, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Some people live long enough that a picture every 100 years could be taken twice in a lifetime. [[User:Djbrasier|Djbrasier]] ([[User talk:Djbrasier|talk]]) 19:21, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
:Agreed.  People have lived to 122, and it's easy to imagine an 18-year old student starting this project and taking another picture at the age of 118.  Lifespans will probably keep increasing too. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.237.156|108.162.237.156]] 20:41, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
:: He could be one of these Singularitarian guys, and geniunely believe he'll live for multiple centuries. And to be fair, considering the clearly advancing tech level, if Cueball here is still a teenager, him surviving another 100 years isn't ''that'' unlikely.

Do we need the long note about Megan? [[User:Djbrasier|Djbrasier]] ([[User talk:Djbrasier|talk]]) 00:46, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

:I don't think the long note on Megan/Not Megan is warranted on this page. I'm not sure where it would go, but this isn't the right place for a discussion on character designations. --[[User:Pudder|Pudder]] ([[User talk:Pudder|talk]]) 10:44, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

:: Can it be moved to the [[Megan]] page? For example, the [[Cueball]] page states that there can be multiple Cueballs in a comic, perhaps this is a case with multiple Megans? Maybe the thing to do is to edit some of the discussion and move it to Megan's page with a note that this is a case where Megan (everywoman) appears twice in a comic. I concur with the consensus from the discussion above that her hair is too short for #4 character to be [[Danish]].

::: I think this is important to put here to avoid people changing it again and again. As far as I know this is the first time two girls looking like Megan appears in the same comic (although I have not read all yet.) For Cueball this happens many times. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 17:35, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
::::The Megan page specifies that she is an everywoman to Cueball's everyman.  If we are to be consistent, then we should have only a brief note here and can add the rest to Megan's page.  I'm going to make an update, if people disagree, revert. [[User:Djbrasier|Djbrasier]] ([[User talk:Djbrasier|talk]]) 00:43, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Following the conventions set in [[1441: Turnabout]] and [[1436: Orb Hammer]], I have taken the character that is seems is most Megan-like from the character's behavior and appearance and named her Megan and left the other character of similar appearance unnamed. I will be updating the Megan page presently. [[User:Djbrasier|Djbrasier]] ([[User talk:Djbrasier|talk]]) 00:50, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Also, I think we should merge [[Cueball]] and [[Rob]], but that's another discussion. [[User:Djbrasier|Djbrasier]] ([[User talk:Djbrasier|talk]]) 00:55, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
