Emi? Rin?

[Suriko]

I didn't get this at first, but then it finally clicked. And wished it never had.

[Worthington]

I'm still not sure what i'm reading.
But a mental image of some Emi-Rin-Hanako hybrid springs unbidden to the mind.
And I hate you for that, good sir.

[Merlyn_LeRoy]

I can only make this joke once a century...

If some of you still don't get it;

Don't
Forget
3 Oct '11

[Mirage_GSM]

Yes, it took me a while to make the connection, too.
Had to check the date to be sure.

[kosherbacon]

My feelings after figuring out the hints and looking up the resulting date. (spoiler within?)

[Leotrak]

... Oh. Right. I get it now T_T

[pedrosorio]

I still don't get it

EDIT: Fullmetal alchemist reference. OK

[Suriko]

I still don't get it

EDIT: Fullmetal alchemist reference. OK

Full Metal Alchemist, the day that Ed and Al burned down their home and left for Amestris.

[DarkMeph]

I have not seen full metal alchemist. So I did not get the reference.

[Jmacaroo]

Wow! Pretty awesome reference. Even the year matches up!

[Lollercost]

Wow! Pretty awesome reference. Even the year matches up!

I'm pretty sure in FMA that year was 1911. I read the mango, but I didn't get it until the picture.

[Jmacaroo]

Ya that's the case but even so.

[toast]

That reference is in poor taste, friend.
