‘Phineas And Ferb To The Big Bang Theory’. Oh, what a fuse Sheldon would blow once these two wunderkinds dazzle the world with their ASB-tier intellect and building skills. If someone like Dennis Kim pissed him off to the point of a brief existential crisis on his part, then he’d wind up catatonic when the news cycle gets hijacked by the brothers’ latest rollercoaster or literal time machine. Would they become humans in this scenario ore would we see the The Big Bang Theory universe as a cartoon version. Good question. Since they’re being sent to TBBT and not the other way around, I suppose that Phineas and Ferb become live-action characters that otherwise retain their cartoonish intelligence and building skills. This would, of course, leave Sheldon with an irreparably shattered psyche as the brothers wow the world within their first few days at Pasadena. And I doubt they’d have much trouble getting into CalTech or some other top-notch technology school with ease, which also bodes badly for Sheldon if they wind up attending his place of work. |

Believe it or not, I actually once saw a similar thread on AH.com, albeit with an empty Expanse Mars being sent back to the 1950s. As it applies to this scenario, though, Mars probably wins its sovereignty on the day of arrival--even if it takes a bit for the international community to recognize it once they overcome their initial shock and awe. |

I agree with this. Cool. I wonder what Mars will do from that point onwards, keeping in mind the likelihood that its technological and military dominance will likely embolden it to make demands beyond just its own sovereignty? |

I wonder would it seek to secure the rest of the Solar system for itself, as well as probably trying to prevent any outer planet identity developing, which could be harder than they expect in the longer run. I'm not sure they would want anything from Earth although there is likely to be some tension if they seek to claim Luna. Albeit that in the shorter term Earth can't do anything much. I don't think that Mars needs anything from Earth, at least when the books start which I assume is where the Mars comes from. They might be harder hit by the loss of trade with the outer planets and the loss of their bases and ships off Mars assuming those don't come along.

And his VP being the real power behind him, that would be of course Porky Pig, if we go by the Duck Dodgers (TV series). |

I take it that specific characterization of Daffy Duck was more sensible and willing to take advice from his betters, unlike his more recent counterpart from the Loony Tunes Show on Cartoon Network? |

What policies he’d advise Daffy to implement or ask Congress to consider, I’m unsure of. |

Well i think Congress will impeach him, do not think they want a duck ore pig as president ore his vice president. |

I mean, even if they become the POTUS and VPOTUS in real life instead of in their world, they clearly have the same intelligence as humans. Maybe not the competency needed for a sitting politician, but then that’d be a separate reason to scrutinize them than the fact that they’re animals. |

But still legaly they are animals, and i have never heard the case about animals having the right to vote ore get elected, that is the case congress will make. |
