"Not set them up the bomb." Is this some sort of reference? Because it looks like illiterate blabbering. --Khajidha (talk) 16:01, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

I assume it's a Zero Wing (Someone set us up the bomb) reference combined with a reference to IDW Comics Chromia. --abates (talk) 16:19, 14 October 2018 (EDT)
The quote is technically "Somebody set up us the bomb", but yes, that's apparently the reference. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 16:52, 14 October 2018 (EDT)
