Added DiffLines:

* Opus talks to Portnoy about music videos.
-->Ya know, my all-time favorite song is "[[Music/TheBeatles Yesterday]]." Whenever I hear it, I think of frolicking porpoises under Antarctic rainbows. I dunno why... It's just a very sentimental song to me...\\
They finally made a video for it. I saw it this morning. It was mostly [[StuffBlowingUp slow-motion explosions]] and [[{{Fanservice}} half-naked women slinkin' around]].\\
Would you like to know what I think of now when I hear "Yesterday"?\\
'''HALF-NAKED, EXPLODING PORPOISES!'''

'''Oliver:''' Diddly-/squat.

* In a recent strip Oliver is using a VR machine where it shows him going down a lazy river in an inner tube with a celebrity. In the middle of all this Opus, Bill the Cat and Milo spot this from outside. The strip ends with everyone outside near a recently thawed pond and the three have the beanbag Oliver is sitting on tilted towards it which Oliver is freely jumping into(Oliver mistook the pond for a massive cup of hot cocoa due to his VR machine). His dad has an expression which screams 'this ought to be good' as he lays on some snark to this.
