Line 4:
* His lack of knowledge about human society.
** And human sexuality. He had to be told that you need a male and a female to produce a child, despite having a daughter who (ignoring this theory) is assumed to be biological.
{{quote|
Ethan: "The ones with the penis."
Galasso: "Pee-nis?" }}
* His apparent inhuman strength.
* Why he has resurrection tech.
** This is most notable as Mike was resurrected within a year after being proclaimed dead. The first in the tank, taking nine months to revive, was Walky. So Galasso had his own tank.
* It could also explain why he burnt the drama tag.
== Mike can't remember his resurrection. ==
He always avoids the topic and never brings it up. The answer he gave Amber was "I died and then I came back to life." But what if that's all he knows about it? One day he was dead, the next he's working at a toy store. He doesn't know and he doesn't want to know.
== Lezzie's new cat is actually a [[Pokémon|Mew]]. ==
It looks and sounds exactly like one.
* [[Jossed]]: It is the horrific offspring of Choo-Choo Bear of [[Something
== Ethan's boyfriend is related to Joyce somehow. ==
Line 36:
== Batman can't actually breathe in space. == Note that, the only time in the strip Batman was depicted as breathing in space, it was a fantasy of Robin's brought on by action-figure card art. Clearly, during her time as a congresswoman, she participated in a secret government project to screw with Batman's mind, and left him with the permanent impression of having the ability to breathe in space.
* ''Alternatively, the above-mentioned experiment is the source of Batman's ability to breathe in space.'' This theory follows the same evidence to a different conclusion. Robin [[De Santo]] decided to use her sombrero-augmented political power not to screw with Batman's mind, but to correct what she believed to be a fundamental flaw in the fabric of the universe: Batman's inability to breathe in space. Also, note that Batman, while not shown to breathe in space, has claimed to have the ability two more times, and both occur after that Congress storyline, whereas the first comes before it.
* The experiment was implemented by Black Mesa, who already had experience with this kind of operation after giving [[Half-Life (
== Robin is a grown-up Tomo from ''[[
Their personalities are pretty much identical, and they look pretty similar too. Tomo was planning to join the ICPO; can there be any doubt that she would jump at the chance to join SEMME? And after that, she lost no time finding a new [[Meganekko]] to harass.
* So...when did she turn Hispanic?
Line 67:
== Ronnie is the American King Arthur ==
America, being a young nation compared to Britain or Germany (and their legend about Fredeick Barbarossa), is still deveolping its legendary protector. Ronnie is waiting until America is once again threatened by Communism, and when that day comes, he will rise again to save the USA. In the meantime, he works in a small retailer, the most eloquent symbol of American Freedom, because Ronald Reagan doesn't sleep, boy. He works all shifts.
* Alternatively, he is the Emperor of [[Warhammer 40
== Galasso is Norman Osborn, during the period where he was "dead". ==
Line 90:
== Every character will find their own wiki at some point. ==
Ethan and Robin will have the Transformers Wiki and [[TV Tropes]], Mike will have Encyclopedia Dramatica, Ninja Steve will have Wiki Naruto, Ronnie will shamelessly edit the main Wikipedia with regards to his term in office, Faz will set up the Faz Wiki (or possibly commandeer a random unofficial Porn Wiki and mold it into a Faz Wiki), and Connie will take up editing of random pop culture wikia. Galasso tries to either take over the Villain Wiki or order it to produce an heir with his daughter, and Car will take up editing Wiki Spider-Man. Finally, Leslie Bean either finds or makes a Congressional Wiki, and puts mention of Robin in ''every. Single. Article.''
== David Willis ''did'' find the TV Tropes Wiki at some point. ==
And posted most of these "guesses" himself just [[For the Evulz]]
* Willis has linked to this site several times in the comment section (for example: linking to [[Puberty Superpower]] during a discussion about the nature of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
== Spider-Car ''is not'' Car. ==
Line 107:
== The world beyond the toy store does not exist ==
The toy store is a terrarium for the remnants of the human race. Any action that takes place outside the store is really in the attic above or artifically induced hallucinations. This is why the only legal authority we have ever really seen is Robin and that ain't saying much.
* Psssh, I wish. Then Willis might make a toy joke from time to time, instead of focusing on the character relationships... which is not exactly his forte.
== Robin is Tim Drake ==
Batman decided the ultimate way to protect his identity would be to change his gender, wipe his memories, give him a new set and have him/her seek a job at a toystore. Hence the obsession with Batman.
Line 121:
== The Drunk Mike thing was a [[Break the Cutie]] ploy at Amber. ==
Mike has a new idea for messing with Amber and Ethan. Become Amber's boyfriend and let her think she has power over him. This goes to her head and drives a firm wedge between herself and Ethan, and possibly her other friends at the toystore morphing her into a mild Jerkass. When she's driven away all her friends, Mike reveals he doesn't act like a nice guy when he was drunk, and this was just a ploy to crumble the self-esteem Amber had gained by playing on her attraction to men that remind her of her dad.
* Except that Drunk Mike was established long before he showed up in Shortpacked! - Mike could conceivably be taking advantage of his drunk self's personality to sucker Amber into a doomed relationship, but unless the relationship with Dina (which certainly appeared to be one of the only times Mike was ''not'' in control of a situation) was part of a [[Gambit Roulette]] to destroy the friendship of two people ''he wouldn't meet for years'', there's really no way you can claim that he's faking his inebriated congeniality.
* I find it entirely plausible that Mike could have been faking his happy-drunkenness for years for the sole purpose of springing it on someone when the opportunity seems ripe enough.
Line 130:
Robin has a crush on Spider-Car, whom she [http://shortpacked.com/comic/book-10/01-this-man-this-manhattan/back-3/ believes] is Amber. She's in denial about the possibility of Ultra-Car being Spider-Car because Ultra-Car is a [[Jerkass]].
== Amber's hamster is a [[The Big O
[http://shortpacked.com/comic/book-11/04-come-and-knock-on-our-door/biga/ This] will explain it all. The other one plays the part of R. Dorothy or maybe Norman.
Line 161:
Well it's already confirmed that it's going to be a girl
