Comment ID #46750

Over the years, I have seen BCB characters compared to many things; Pokemon, Dungeons&Dragons classes, movie heroes (and villains), vegetables, furniture, the Simpsons, and much, much more.

Yet thus far these analogies and comparisons have been spread across the entire website, only to be encountered by chance. So I have taken it upon myself to create a space where these analogies and comparisons may gather and flourish, so that said chance encounters may become as rare as a random battle in a modern RPG.

Please, aid my cause, and post your own analogies here. Or at the very least, copypasta old ones to this comparison sanctuary.

I thank you for your time and (hopefully) your effort.

furniture eh? hmmm….

(Living room)

Mike= Chair- Not top of the line, but a trusted sitting device none the less.

Lucy= Lamp- Usually beside the chair, when its not, it’s in a corner or dangling from the ceiling .

Paulo= Couch- Typically not near the chair, but normally near the lamp when its in the corner.

Daisy= Coffee table- Usually the ignored, but important, center piece in a room, can be by everything, but sticks to the chair, or couch.

David= Carpet- stays the hell away from the lamp (can also be a TV)

Abbey= Candle- Usually placed on the coffee table, and when lit is the center of attention, when not, is ignored by most within the room. (Note~While attention is place on it, it melts and burns out eventually, yet still remains on the table)

Tess= Xbox- A relatively new installment into the room, it provides entertainment to all(and are usually sitting on the couch while playing.)

@Pyro: Yeah… If David were the TV and Tess the xbox… That would mean David hooks up with Tess…
[ALTERNATE]: That would mean Tess would be sticking a rod in David…

BCB cast as sections in Wal-Mart.

Mike- Checkout aisles. Probably one of most recognizable components of a supermarket. Here, people chat idly with each other while waiting in the queue.

Lucy- Candy shelves. There are sour ones and sweet ones, but you can also find one with nuts. Usually accompanying the checkout aisles, but you can also see them by….

Paulo- Magazine racks. To be fair, there are some by the checkout aisles, but the topics (of conversation) are very few and tend to be hateful slander. The magazine aisle is broader and appeals to more people. The magazine aisle, for some reason is usually near….

Daisy- The cleaning goods aisle. Everything is nice and prim an proper, or at least will help you get that way. Everything you need for a clean house can be found in this aisle. And oh! The chemicals! Is always close to….

Abbey- The cooking utensil section. Handy and useful, these utensils help you do oh so much!!! You can chop and dice and mince! Helps you eat food also! Very reliable indeed! However, you may want to get the warranty on that crock pot there… especially considering how many items you have from the next section could cause overload….

David- The electronics station. A wide source of entertainment! Games, movies, music! Amazing! Always fun to be around, but you can’t help but wonder if all this media is just bombarding us… It’s just to bad that Wal-Mart only has a meager….

Tess- Book section. Sadly, Wal-Mart’s selection are limited to recent best sellers and adult novels. However, that’s just fine. Who buys books at Wal-Mart anyways? Why, it’s the same people who are always shopping in all the sections! Yes! Books go with everything! Except, possibly….

Rachel and Jessica- The outdoors/fishing/recreation section. Yes, these girls like it rough. Possibly too exciting for a bookworm (or, as they might say, “nerdy wimps”). In all honesty, they could probably get along with most sections, even the book section. However, there is one section that you wouldn’t want near them….

Katie- The womens’ clothing section. Ah yes. Fashion. How could I forget. Much too pretty and (sometimes) tacky. I mean, you’re looking for fashion in a Wal-Mart. You’re not going to get much high quality wear here. Most likely, you’ll only end up wearing these a few times.

AS FORUM MEMBERS. You’re fucking right I went there.

MIKE: Souppy. Ubiquitous, yet unseen in the comic lately. And because I’m a total MikexLucy shipper.

LUCY: Taeshi. Has a permanent dibs on Lucy, and she pops in on our artistic achievements to tell us how wonderful they are like a good Forum Mommy, essentially taking care of us the way Lucy takes care of Yashy and Chirpy. :D

PAULO: Me. Because sometimes you want to love me and sometimes you want to fucking choke me to death with your bare hands, muffling my death screams with my crushed own trachea. Don’t even try to deny it.

TESS: Leaving a Comment, about as close as you can get to a female with the personality of Tess. I’d have given her Lucy if Taeshi didn’t have like a permanent dibs on Lucy.

DAVID: The Triplesmex. Awesome goofball.

ABBEY: Gabriel Kaxbe. Because he’s so fuckin’ unsure of himself even when he’s doing everything right.

DAISY: ILB. Gee, I wonder why. ^_^

McCAIN: *Ninja. Because he shows up out of nowhere and can be summoned with snarky comments.

Eh. I’m not particularly interested in being unpredictable.

Although, that was a subtle hint that I would much rather be considered an analogy for Amaya. ^_^

Comment ID #46873

The first two times I wrote this out, trying to be at least a little tactful about it, I wrote you in as Amaya. The reason I couldn’t was because there are so few females in this forum and I needed to fill a top tier female role.

Fuck it: I’m ret-conning that list right now.

ILB IS AMAYA.
LISA IS DAISY.

What’s this? My snarky comment detector is going off!?! I must address the situation immediately!

Yeah, McCain isn’t a bad fit, except that I’m incredibly sarcastic. McCain is never sarcastic, and would certainly not flip out and kill people in a random chat.

I’d suggest Augustus as a replacement, but I’m pretty sure somebody else wants that role.

You are Augustus instead, because you are sneaky.

Don’t worry it’s not all bad, at least that means you’re a total bishie.

Oh and waaaaaay back there Pyrotwister, with your 40k analogies,

Lucy-Sister of Battle
David-Orks
Abbey-Blood Angels
Paulo- Space Wolves

I can make arguments for these if necessary. And while I don’t completely agree with Tess’s assessment, there is little else to choose from…

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Anyways, more analogies.

BCB cast as things that are currently in my car.

Mike- Air freshener. It’s always there, making everything nice and inviting… except when the aroma is too damn strong and near-suffocating.

Lucy- Parking decal. This way she can be near the air-freshener.

Paulo- Soda. Close enough to the parking decal, far away enough from the air-freshener.

David- Candy bar. Always accompanying the soda.

Daisy- Doggy bobble-head doll. It’s behind the backseat on the little shelf thingy. It makes the car seem cute-ish… I guess.

Abbey- Straw hat. It’s right next to the doggy bobble head.

Tess- Swiss Army Knife. Most useful and reliable thing in the car. Heck, I can’t even rely on the brakes of my car working sometimes.

Imma try silverware (that includes plates bowls ect.)

Mike~Spoon_Common, and a situational tool, i.e. soup, rice, ect. Although it’s common, you can’t eat a-lot of things easily without it.

Lucy~Bowl_Usually highly related to the spoon, most of the time whatever is being eaten out of it is usually by the spoon.(NOT PERVERTED)

Paulo~Fork_Common, more versatile than the spoon, it’s use stretches from some soups, to steak, to bread. Not usually associated with the bowl, unless it’s filled with abnormal materials.

Daisy~Napkin_Fairly common, again it’s situational but most people don’t want it, or need it until the are covered with the mess from food that was supposed to be contained by the other silverware. Also is usually associated with the fork, spoon, and knife, when their not in use.

Tess~Steak knife_Used almost all of the time with the fork. By itself, it’s pretty useless.

Abbey~Butter knife_Almost all of the time its resting on the napkin, for it has only one use.

McCain~Spork_Never useful, and does everything about half as well as the fork or spoon. Hardly ever used in a diner setting.

David~Cup_Always there, stalking you other silverware.
