Uh... It seems Snoop Dogg is a Homestuck fan. He even tetweeted this. I think that first link might not be NSFW, there is a warning for me so I didn't bother to check it. Also this was commented on the TVTropes forum, just sharing with you guys.

Okay... SnoopDogg with Nepeta and Meulin. Um.
The voices in my head tell me that we saved the world. However, they also told me that George Clooney's face is on the dollar bill, so... meh. The voices are more fun, anyway.

I get the intended pun, but why?
Apparently, slightly less weird than most of you.

According to dictionary.com, Dirk is a kind of sword. Something that would fit in bladekind. Is this Fridge Logic or what?

No, it's a specific naming choice. That just so happens to be old news to anyone who read The Long Patrol. :P
So, apparently I'm the sanest madman this side of the international date line. Seems legit.

Nitpicking here, but it's actually a kind of dagger. But yeah could be deliberate. :)

The others aren't all so apt, though, which makes me question whether it's a theme. A quick investigation via some probably-not-entirely-accurate websites shows me that Roxy is a diminutive of Roxana, meaning 'bright', or 'dawn'. Jane is a feminine form of John (which kinds makes sense) and both mean 'God is gracious', and Jake is either a form of Jack or Jacob, which means it could mean "holder of the heel" or "supplanter".

Jade and Rose are both obvious, and Dave got luckiest, I feel. His obviously from David, and means beloved... I wonder if Dirk knew that.
They sometimes say, "the place where I am right now was circled on a map for me"... Unfortunately, I kind of suck at orienteering.

No, the pun is "Dogs and cats", or rather "Doggs and cats"

I saw the fantrolls: Oh hey, these must be the fantrolls!

I clickled the link to the next page: OMG, ROFL!

Seriously, I laughed way too hard at it.

EDIT: Music for the fantrolls (I'm also instantly liking that tumblr because of the Pkmn in the background)

...Okay, I don't like multiposting, but since no one seems to comment here...

There was an update just now. And holy fuck... BABY CALLIOPE IS SO CUTE!!! CALLIOPE/CALIBORN SNAKE ALSO IS CUTE!!! And Gamzee taking care of Calliope was cute. He even gave her... A codpiece... Well... Gamzee's moral got even weirder. Is he evil or what? And he took care of baby LE. That is... A thing...

Also, recent Sadstuck: www.youtube.com/watch?&v=o7ndvbzx1HM

I'm beginning to think this fandom's hardwired to find the most depressing subtext they can...

Now, you know that the moment Aranea said Leprechaun Romance, the whole world facepalmed and groaned with despair. And when they saw the charms... well, let's just say Vriska's my favorite character now.

Eh, she's just saying what the majority of the fandom was thinking.

On a different note, I kinda hope Hussie revisits the comic some time after he finishes and rewrites it to fix the pacing issues a bit. The infodumps are starting to feel a bit gratuitous now.
