Now that I have all 10 episodes of S2, am I going to have a problem jumping in at this point, without having seen S1? I saw the first episode of S2 (because Scola is awesome) and didn't have any problems understanding what was what, so I'm assuming I won't have any problems with the rest of the season.
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

Steph,
No, you should be fine if you are familiar with the comics versions of the characters. While some things are different and some characters' relative ages have been shifted a bit, none of them are drastically different than their counterparts. There's actually a 5-year time skip from the end of season 1 to beginning of season 2, which makes a lot of things "start from scratch" anyway.
You will miss out on some of the import of the story arcs related to Aqualad and Artemis, but you shouldn't be confused.
I would suggest watching Season 1 anyway, because it's awesome, even if it doesn't have any Blue Beetle.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That one is really fun.

On re-watch I realized "Wow, the official cosplayer for the Deadpool game is one big dude."

Young Justice: Roy's a clone? The hell?
The Scarab is not Kord tech, damn it. I mean, the pre-new 52 explanation (alien tech from an alien race that wanted to enslave the Earth [like you do]) doesn't lend itself to a team show, but -- damn it, it's alien tech!
The bloodthirstiness is about right, though.
The Bat-family is awesome, although I don't know how I feel about having Barbara as Batgirl.
Roy's a CLONE?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What episode are you up to, Steph?

Yeah, that would be another major plot point you missed out on with Season 1. Forgot about that one. I apologize.
But as for the Scarab? Just wait.

There's some rumors flying around that DC has lost the rights to the Milestone characters and that's the reason behind the last-minute yank, but I can't find anything concrete either way.
I did find someone ranting about how greedy the Siegel family is for fighting with DC about the Superman rights. @@
