It is speculation as to whether the woman pictured is indeed Marshie's mother, and it should be noted as such on the page, but I don't think we should shy away from calling her his mother. It is an extremely reasonable conclusion given the fact that her image was on screen as Marshie said the comments that were directed at his mother, and there is no other data that would contradict such a conclusion. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:58, 3 October 2006 (UTC) | It is speculation as to whether the woman pictured is indeed Marshie's mother, and it should be noted as such on the page, but I don't think we should shy away from calling her his mother.

:I agree. Also, did you know that you could have simply added that to the article? Be '''bold'''! ;-) {{User:Loafing/sig}} 00:39, 4 October 2006 (UTC) | :I agree.

My point is that several people have made various comments in the thread above and on the toon talk page and have made various {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=retirement_A&diff=371626&oldid=371625 edits to the transcript}} indicating that we're not absolutely ''certain'' the pictured woman is his mother. Well, all right, I have to admit there's room for doubt—but not much. A picture of a woman who looks like Marshie appears as he says the word "mother". Seems pretty convincing to me. Thus, unless we're presented with evidence to the contrary, we can probably safely proceed with the assumption that she is indeed his mother. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:43, 4 October 2006 (UTC) | ||

I thought Marshie saying "Just walk away, mother...." and then it saying "....Fluffy Fuff marshmallows" was supposed to be a joke, like Marshie was about to say "mother f*****" and it cut to "fluffy", and the portrait was just for emphasis on the word. {{User:Salty/sig}} 01:22, 4 October 2006 (UTC) | I thought Marshie saying "Just walk away, mother...." and then it saying "....Fluffy Fuff marshmallows" was supposed to be a joke, like Marshie was about to say "mother f*****" and it cut to "fluffy", and the portrait was just for emphasis on the word. {{User:Salty/sig}} 01:22, 4 October 2006 (UTC) |
Revision as of 01:43, 4 October 2006
Worth her own page?
Marshie's mother is a really, really minor character, not even appearing except as a portrait, and therefore we have a really small article. Although it's marked as a stub, I don't think we'll be able to get much more info on this article. Is it possible we should merge this with Marshie? Heimstern Läufer 20:18, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Good idea. Loafing

- Yeah. Also, wherever this information ends up, I'm assuming we're cool with the fact that technically it's just speculation that happens to be likely. — It's dot com 20:58, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Merge - while noting that we don't know for sure that this is Marshie's mother after all. Marshie tends to say things that almost make sense - it's also likely he was simply saying something creepy in front of a portrait. (Actually, that's all we know for sure, isn't it?) - Qermaq - (T/C)

- Merge, for the reasons listed above.

- How is this character any less minor than Mrs. Bennedetto, The Denzel, Cinder Block, The Teach, and Doreauxgard...who all have their own page?

- Maybe it's splitting hairs, but all of those characters have actually appeared, whereas only a portrait of Marshie's Mother has appeared (and it's speculation that that's who the picture is of).

Are you my mother?
It is speculation as to whether the woman pictured is indeed Marshie's mother, and it should be noted as such on the page, but I don't think we should shy away from calling her his mother.
