You've mentioned Norm's biggest points of pride being 'kinda pyrrhic' before and I was wondering: is the fact that he fought in the Korean War aka 'The Forgotten War' an intentional choice to go along with that or just an interesting coincidence?

Oh, I was referring to the space mission he was sent on, being handpicked by the president to leave his old life behind. The fact he was picked is something he clings to for comfort even though it ruined his life, basically.

As for the Korean war being sorta forgotten, iirc that played a role in why it was picked, but a larger part of why it was initially picked was cause it happened between WWII and Vietnam. I wanted Crown and Milt to be somewhat older than Norm, and Vietnam would've been too late.

But, the 'forgotten' war theme did wind up being somewhat important, as Crown's father died in a military operation that's essentially forgotten now. An interesting thing about the Korean war too is that it essentially just ended with the border back right where it was. America didn't 'lose' the war, but when all was said and done, people didn't feel the same way about it as they did with, say, WWII.

if each of the dialtown cast had 3 wishes what would they be?

Oliver: "Okay, quick question... If you got three genie wishes, what would your two remaining wishes be AFTER wishing to fuck the genie?"

Randy: "..."

Karen: "..."

Norm: "I just wanna see my KIDS."

I bought a rogr cameo and it’s honestly not that bad advice show I’m sharin it to tumblr

[thedogmanarchives]

My cameo from Roger Dialtown, he gives the best advice!

[thedogmanarchives]

Directest of Dogs, I have a question for thee!

What is Randy's opinion on his ex Lola and her involvement in his life's downfall? I can't remember if he ever expressed his thoughts on her post-'incident'.

He doesn't blame her whatsoever for what happened to him, but he is also simultaneously TERRIFIED of her.

almost forgot to post what i got from roger's cameo! i asked for him to read out this classic hollowtones post. and he did like 4 takes at it and they're all really good

[thedogmanarchives]

my Roger cameo, feel like i just got hit with a hammer, thanks Roger!

[thedogmanarchives]

Soooo we already know that Norm’s reallyyyy good at swatting flies

however, do you think that he’d be fond of OTHER bugs? Like, butterflies or lady bugs

I like the idea of this big, tough cowboy stopping to admire a pretty butterfly..

I have to imagine he'd be impressed by dragonflies or big butterflies. Anything large enough that he can see clearly how it's constructed. He worked in 2 kinds of aviation related fields and obviously has an association with bald eagles, so he would be fascinated by anything that can fly to some extent from an engineering perspective.

Hey! I’m not Ute if you’ve already answered this, but I was wondering what gun does norm have specifically.? I know it’s a standard revolver but I was wondering the specifics, Ty and have a good day!

I swear I once knew the answer to this for certain.

I got the replica guns from a friend of my grandfather's, who was really into John Wayne movies, so my best guess is that it was modeled off the colt single action army revolver, since it looks pretty close to the gun he used in True Grit. Googling the weapon and it looks pretty close to what Norm wields. Hope this helps!

Roger Jones Cameo Official

Dialtown news: Peter is now aware of the deluge of emails Roger has been answering from you all for the last 9 months. Roger has been getting 100x more emails than everyone else at the plant and it's slowing down the servers.

What's even stranger - (almost) none of the emails are seemingly trying to scam Roger. That's the part that scared Peter the most. So, Peter (in his infinite wisdom) figured out a way to capitalize on this anomaly for the benefit of the plant.

Now... You can receive a personalized voice message from the man himself. Roger, that is. He truly has nothing better to do with his time. That, I can promise you.

do you think Oliver would enjoy will wood.. if so, what would his favorite song be ? ^_^

I'm thinking I/Me/Myself or The Main Character .ᐟ.ᐟ.ᐟ.ᐟ

Honestly, hard to say off the top of my head. I/Me/Myself is a strong contender. Hell, I feel a lot of songs on his normal album would be strong guesses.

I could imagine him being passed the aux cord at a party and excitedly playing Memento Mori, like "C'mon, guys! Give THIS bad-boy a listen!" and then bobbing his head while it plays. Randy sits there sweating as the song hits his existential insecurities, Karen sits there unemotively and Norm just glares at him with indignant disbelief. Oliver would then awkwardly follow the uncomfortably long silence after the song finishes with: "When you think about it, this is actually one of his more optimistic songs!"

[thedogmanarchives]

Sorry for the amount of Randy questions, Do you think he likes radiohead?

definitely.

i was recently re playing Rogers evil route and absolutely WHY DOES ROGER HAVE FABRONS HEAD (i do NOT remember this being here the first time i played it but i could be mis-remembering it) please and thank you 😇

roger kept annoying fabron and fabron said that if roger didn't stop, he'd lose his head. roger, worried for fabron, acquired a spare.

so what DID the gnome on roger's desktop say... perchance

It's possible to figure it out from context, but the answer is... crungus.

Here's why we know it's crungus:

1)Roger mentions that New Folder (2) had never done that before Roger's PC got infected with the malware and theorizes there's a link.

2)The malware was given to him by Little Billy.

3)Little Billy tells Gingi that he's the creator of the word 'crungus', which is a horrific slur in DT's universe.

So, there we have it. I tried it with the word crungus visible and then with it censored and the censored version was way funnier alongside Roger's reaction to it.

Do you have an idea of where specifically in Wisconsin Dialtown is? (North, South, Center etc...)

North! It's not a million miles from Ashland, WI!

Hello dogman :] you've said previously that water can get into phone heads if they're cracked/have stitch-related problems. Would dumping your head in rice be like a homemade solution for that?

I hadn't considered that. Probably! I imagine doctors would REALLY recommend against people doing it themselves, since you'd be putting foreign matter into the head, but given that people often open up their heads to do minor repairs...
