I'm assuming I should know this, but who are Jane and Daria?
Willow: Yikes. Imagine the things...Buffy: No! Stop imagining! All of you! Xander: Already got the visual.

From the MTV animated show Daria who was the main character. Her best friend was Jane. The cool thing was that they made the snarky girl the main character and her best friend? Also snarky. Possibly even more deadpan. It was double snarky goodness.

Morgana, I think you would really love it. I used to watch Daria in grad school and she was just terrific.

Ah, thank you. I never saw that. But snark is always good, and the more snark the better.
Edit -- wait, was that the same era as Beavis and Butthead? Because that would explain why I avoided anything animated on MTV.

Not just the same era - she was a spinoff from Beavis and Butthead. (But completely different show and tone with different writers etc.)

yep. I avoided B&B, but somehow caught Daria and was sucked in.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
People know B&B was actually good, right? I mean, Mike Judge also did King of the Hill. And Office Space.

I do. Cornholio made me laugh like nobody's business. Plus their fear of PJ Harvey's "50 Foot Queenie" was genius.

But most importantly he was the voice of Kenny in the South Park movie.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I hated B&B. HATED IT. It made me want to throttle someone. Took me years to appreciate King of the Hill on its own merits and not loathe it just because it looked the same as B&B. But i loved Daria. Oh yes, she inspired me. Never knew there was a connection.
I just watched the official "Born this Way" video. Dang, that was creepy. I fear my dreams tonight.

I am certain that there is quality in B&B episodes. That is just not my sense of humor.
Office Space, on the other hand...
