I fear that “theme tune” idea was a throwaway gag that will never be mentioned again.

(Yes, I live in fear.)
I fear that we are not going to get back to the other hanging plot threads before the comic wraps up. We only have 98 strips to go and some of those strips will be a crossover with SDB whenever the hell it returns. I'm now convinced Giz and Dave are going to give Ma3 (and possibly SDB) a "And The Adventure Continues" ending just in case they want to return to it in the future. Because of that, I'm only asking they bring Kiley back even it's just for a strip or two before the comic goes on "indefinite hiatus".

Oh. Right. Millennials.

What's more, wrestling millennials.
Well, i don't think Roxie is GenX, maybe she is a Xennial.
Yeah, if Roxie was born in the 80s, she's a millennial herself too.

Also, most milliennials are in their 30s or late 20s now.

Checking my dictionary, I find:

GenX: born in the 1960s and early 1970s

Xennials: born in the late 1970s or first half of the 1980s

Millenials: born from around the late 1980s to the mid 1990s or early 2000s

There's no way in hell anyone in the cast is GenX or Xennial, except perhaps the old landlady, Nathan and Gary's boss (Yvan, if I'm not mistaken). Millenial sounds about right for everybody, even those who are in their early 30s.

Come to think of it, putting aside Gary (30 years old) and Izz (18 years old), do we know the exact age of anyone? :-?

Considering their generation now depends on the comic's volume (seems they havnt aged in the last decade)b does it matter?
Pointless arguing is one of the three pillars upon which the Internet is built. The other two are of course cat pictures and porn.

Oh, on a separate note: whoever mentioned that it's not that Roxie is especially irritated by DiDi, but, rather, that she is universally irritated 24/7 by the whole wide world? You sure got that right. Image I don't think she has ever been so close to blow her stack than in panel 4.
She seems to have a Napoleonic complex or Kiley if she let her fists do the talking.

You say that as if she's not justified to be upset towards Maura and Tess.

Oh, just knock their heads together. It's not like it will do any lasting damage.

And she has every right to be pissed. These girls - though real life friends - are part of well established kayfabe - where they're best friends who fight together, as a team. Having them go all out on each other in a public setting completely contradicts what was established in the fictional wrestling reality; meaning the folks in charge now have to figure out a new plot line in order to explain the encounter at the restaurant (as, even outside of the ring, they're supposed to be in character).
Please, don't come to me expecting me to fix your problems.

Not really, but Spidrift was sying that Maura and Tess were thrilled that they're internet famous because they are millenial wrestlers, so i wondered if the rest of the wrestlers in this comic are from other generation, i know Roxie is not GenX because that would make her at least 40... Xennials are in their mid-late 30s, and Millenials are in their mid-late 20s/early 30s, so i put her in one of those 2 categories.
That's what i do... i drink and i know things...

Thanks for the definitions. I have to admit that I'd never bothered to look that up before, despite my curiousity. So I guess that this makes me a millenial.

You're welcome. Millenial, huh? That's nice. Wish I was so young myself...
