Confession: I thought this was overrated and sort of meh; I stopped reading after four pages of not getting the in-jokes or recognizing the references.

And then I realized I had been reading the original Boy Scouts Comic.

So freaking excellent I must channel the classics:

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its lovliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing
A flowery band to bind us to the earth,
Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth
Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,
Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darkn'd ways
Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all,
Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
From our dark spirits. Such the sun, the moon,
Trees old and young, sprouting a shady boon
For simple sheep; and such are daffodils
With the green world they live in; and clear rills
That for themselves a cooling covert make
'Gainst the hot season; the mid-forest brake,
Rich with a sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms:
And such too is the grandeur of the dooms
We have imagined for the mighty dead;
An endless fountain of immortal drink,
Pouring unto us from the heaven's brink.

Dude, I think I got most of those jokes, and I haven't even been here that long. Holy fuck I need a hobby.

That pretty much justifies and redeems every single crap FPP, political rant, and hissy fit I've ever wasted time reading on Metafilter. For they all now form the necessary backdrop to this noble work of art.

Like a fine wine, it just seems to get better and better; going back and forth between the original and the mefi version is exquisite.

That was hilarious. Although I am a bit worried the kids will think this place is too soft after that. We need to be a little edgier, I guess.

That is some nice work F_M. My son is a bit of a cartoonist. Mainy copying other cartoons though. Once I show him this one, it should motivate him to find/create his own.
Thanks again. Bravo.

No, you are a rigid airship disguised as a human.

The question is, are you full of thermite and explosive gas, or just the more mundane non-volatile support material and helium?

Personally, I'm hoping for the former...

This honestly did make me a little weepy with laughter. I so regret not being able to make it to the 8th anniversary party. But at least now I get to think of the entire party as having been comprised of topless furries in boyscout uniforms.

I suddenly have the Smokey the Bear song I learned in Boy Scouts stuck in my head. Thanks for perverting another childhood memory fandango_matt. I appreciate it.

I must chime in on how awesome this truly is. I lurked here for years, and this may be the best synopsis of any net based society out there.

Tears - There were TEARS. I haven't laughed that hard in a long, long time.

AHAHAHA, Ceiling cat is watching dios fuck your mother! I just spit carrotcake onto my keyboard, YOU OWE ME A NEW KEYBOARD, MeFi!

Don't ask me why I thought that in particular was so funny, it just was.

Now, if only I could get past wishing I'd made a cameo; guess I haven't been around long enough. Or been enough of an asshat. Wait, that can't possibly be true...

Your comic is outstanding, though I had to infer the meaning of some of the in-jokes through context.

I regret that my curiousity led me to google "lemon party"...
