Hi, guys! I posted these pics on Instagram and Facebook, and thought I’d share them on the blog, too 😀

For the “Corona is a Cabrona” story, I have 5 references so far. I thought I’d share them all with you as sneak peeks 😀 Here they are:

This is the first reference you’ll see in the story. It parodies the name Gas Monkey Garage. My best friend Maisie Merlock actually guest starred in this show. I couldn’t help but make it a reference lol
A little joke for all the Spanish-speakers out there! XD I used Google Translate to translate the title: “Down with the Sickness,” a song made by Disturbed. This song actually used to be my phone’s ringtone.
One of my favorite cartoons as a kid 😀 I don’t know about you, but I think it’s still funny 🙂 Seems like a show Dimwit would enjoy, too.
I used to be OBSESSED with this show as a kid. It’s the cartoon that made me want to make cartoons. How could I not make it a reference?
A parody of The Simpsons. It gave me a good giggle, so I decided to include it.

I hope these references made you smile. Have a good day 🙂
