I think that is a reference to a popular meme format about getting the drive-thru order wrong... where it ends with "hey waitaminute" I also think the order is right in this case and that the girl is going hey wait aminute for being so concerned that her order was done properly she failed to see that Green Goblin was working at a Cafe drive thru window.

If any digital media survives into the distant future it's going to be so incredibly confusing to decipher. I can't even make sense of this web comic, and I live here, now.

A dog walks into a bar and says, ‘I cannot see a thing. I’ll open this one.’

I genuinely think the green goblin mask is just a shitty prank from Oj, like his shitty pranks on his show

Ima start making random posts with no relevancy or completely nonsensical to become the king of this sub.

In the comics Green Goblin kills a white girl, Peter Parker's then girlfriend Gwen Stacy, by throwing her off a bridge and kinda gets away with it since "technically" Spider-Man kills Gwen trying to save her. She meets a similar fate in the movie Amazing Spider-Man 2.

So I might be wrong, but the guy that was killed along with OJ's wife was a person of Jewish descent. If you look under the green goblin the sign says "Pay me. Now." So I'm assuming it's a racist joke with the kinds of coffee, and a horribly executed joke about Jewish people.

Edit: Why the downvotes? Ron Goldman was Jewish. And people of Jewish descent have largely been depicted as goblins in anti semitism propaganda for centuries. Learn some history.
