What If This Were An American 80′s Sitcom?
The most insane part about this page is that it is not at all far from the truth on how “typical” Romani are depicted by American television productions. Case in point:
Thanks to Thomas Overbeck of Times Like This for having the balls to create this brilliantly pointed piece of satire, even if laughing at it makes me feel like I’m going to hell. Then again, that’s the more or less the point of it. And so, our special Rasputin Barxotka mini-series begins…

…tomorrow. This page is just part of the Webcomic Underdog’s April Fool’s Webcomic Switcheroo.
So Like, April’s Fools!
All jokes aside, this page is still 100% canon. Find out how the hell that’s even possible when the regular series restarts in June.

Narrator
Next...on the all new...The Tsar of Pinewood Hills
Frame 2
Tsar is dressed in a gray shirt and brown vest with a brown bandana on his black hair. Behind him is his daughter, Olivia, with brown hair and dressed in gray pants and a lavender shirt. Next to Olivia is Ryan, a blonde-haired boy in a gray NIN shirt and blue jeans.
Narrator
Olivia's brought a boyfriend home! But will Tsarkias approve of him?
Olivia to Tsar
Daddy, I'd like you to meet Ryan!
Ryan to Tsar
Hi, uh... Mister Olivia's father!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha
Frame 3
Tsar turns to talk to Olivia and Ryan, his hands on his hips. Ryan seems nervous about meeting Tsar.
Tsar to Ryan
You don't sound too sure of yourself! I really don't think you're being honest about your intentions with my daughter!
Ryan to Tsar
Oh! Well... uh... I'd never do anything to hurt her!
Frame 4
Tsar is alone in the view now, and is working on unbuttoning his pants.
Tsar to Ryan (off-screen) Good, because if you do anything to bring marime upon my Olivia...
Frame 5
View of Tsar's backside, his pants low enough to show off his groin. Olivia face palms and Ryan is shocked and surprised.
Tsar to Ryan
...I will think nothing of beating you down, and then taking my cock and forcefully violating your nether regions with it!
Ryan to Tsar
AHHGGHHH! Uh... you have nothing to worry about, sir!
Olivia to Tsar
DADDY! Ugh... not again!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Frame 6
Tsar has presumably pulled his pants back up and buttoned them. His demeanor has lightened up a bit, and Ryan looks momentarily comfortable.
Tsar to Ryan
Well, Ryan, I think you're a nice guy, and Olivia seems to think highly of you, so I'll give you a chance.
Ryan to Tsar
Th-thank you, Sir!
Frame 7
Tsar drops a bombshell.
Tsar to Ryan
And if this date goes well, I'll arrange to have you marry her immediately!
Ryan to Tsar, rather stunned
Wh-what? Marry her???
Olivia to Tsar, mortified
Daddy, stop! You're embarrassing me!!!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Frame 8
Tsar is now holding a large gun and he and Olivia watch Ryan run for the door.
Tsar to Ryan
Yes! You've got a sizable dowry, right? It better be as big as this gun!
Ryan to Tsar
AAAAAGH!!!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Frame 9
Tsar looks a little surprised, and Olivia is still mortified.
Tsar to Olivia
Well, I guess he wasn't really husband material.
Olivia to Tsar
Seriously, Dad? I'm only thirteen!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha
Frame 10
Olivia turns away from Tsar, annoyed.
Tsar to Olivia
And that is the perfect age for you to be given for marriage! It's Roma tradition, so don't even think about breaking from it!
Olivia to Tsar
Ugghh... Why do I have to be the only one in my school that's married?!
Audience laughing
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
