In Clerks The Animated Series, they were also shown selling illegal fireworks. Character profileseditJay and Silent Bob were born in Leonardo, New Jersey in the 1. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. They met as infants in front of Quick Stop Groceries while their mothers shopped inside The Record Rack, which would eventually become RST Video. Silent Bobs distinguishing features are his heavy smoking, long coat, dark hair, beard, and backwards baseball cap. He was raised Catholic, and is a gadgetry genius. True to his name, Silent Bob rarely speaks, but when he does, he often has something intelligent or clever to say, delivering insightful monologues to the other characters only in appropriate situations minus one instance where Jay was so oblivious to the obvious clue needed to find a lost orangutan that Silent Bob grabbed him and shouted, The sign on the back of the car said Critters of Hollywood, you dumb fuck in Clerks II, when Dante complains that the two never say anything intelligent, Jay calls for Silent Bob to do his thing, to which Silent Bob can only say I got nothing. Otherwise he relies on hand gestures and facial expressions to communicate. Silent Bob is often annoyed by Jay and when Silent Bob does speak, he will sometimes ridicule Jay, particularly in Chasing Amy in which Silent Bob gave his longest speech and in Clerks II where he points out when he speaks he usually says something intelligent, whereas Jay says something stupid. In Clerks The Animated Series, Silent Bob is called Blutarsky, but according to Smith, that was a joke referencing Animal House and he never gave Silent Bob a last name. Jay is thinner and slightly taller than Silent Bob, and has long, blond hair. In several of the later View Askewniverse films, Jay wears a black knit cap. In contrast to Silent Bob, Jay speaks frequently and rudely and often treats people with disrespect or hostility, including Silent Bob. Jays excessive cursing seems due to influence from his overbearing mother, who is shown continually using profanity in front of him. His first word was fuck.

In issue 2 of the Chasing Dogma comic series, Jay launches into a lengthy and thoroughly impassioned impromptu speech on gay rights and tolerance before he notices Silent Bobs astonished expression and brushes the matter off. In Dogma, 1. 3th Apostle Rufus asserts that Jay masturbates more than anyone else, and that he thinks about men when doing so in response to Silent Bobs shocked expression, Jay claims merely that he does not always think of men during self stimulation. Moreover, in the prison scene in Clerks II, Jay wants Dante and Randal to fellate each other in exchange for Silent Bob and him loaning them the money to reopen the Quick Stop and RST. He may say this merely to get Dante and Randal to humiliate themselves, but after Silent Bobs disgusted look, he retracts the demand. In a cut version of the same scene, Silent Bob tells Jay that he is a deeply repressed gay man. FilmographyeditClerks, released in 1. Jay and Silent Bob.

Throughout the day, they are seen dancing, loitering, and harassing passersby. Silent Bob enters the store to buy powdered sugar while Jay goes inside to steal food. They also deal marijuana to various pedestrians including Willam Black, much to the chagrin of Quick Stop clerk Dante Hicks. In addition, the duo hangs out with Silent Bobs Russian cousin Olaf, who runs a heavy metal band and is looking to do a gig in New York City.

MallratseditAlthough it was filmed one year later, the events in Mallrats, released in 1. Clerks. In the film, Jay and Silent Bob are busy loitering at a local New Jersey mall filmed in Minnesota at the Eden Prairie Center Mall. There they are met by Brodie Jason Lee and T. S. Jeremy London, who have broken up with their girlfriendsRene Shannen Doherty and Brandi Claire Forlani, respectively. As fate would have it, a local game show called Truth or Date, which is set to feature Brandi, is to be filmed at the mall that day. Brodie asks Jay and Silent Bob to make sure the show does not happen, and Jay says they were going to destroy the stage anyway, for lack of anything better to do. They make several attempts to destroy the stage, but ultimately fail. Later, they help Brodie and T. S. win back their girlfriends. Jay incapacitates the male contestants on Truth or Date by getting them stoned, which allows Brodie and T. S. to take their places. Silent Bob overrides the productions video input, allowing him to play a video tape of Renes new boyfriend, Shannon Hamilton Ben Affleck, having sex with a minor. The film concludes with Brodie and T. S. reconciling with their respective girlfriends and Jay and Silent Bob walk off into the distance with an orangutan named Susanne. In this film, Silent Bob is an electronics genius and won a science fair in eighth grade by turning his mothers vibrator into a CD player using chicken wire and shit. After the credits roll, Jay and Silent Bob are announced to return in Chasing Amy. Chasing AmyeditChasing Amy, released in 1. Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob have found out that comic book artists Holden Mc. Neil Ben Affleck and Banky Edwards Jason Lee created a popular independent comic book series entitled Bluntman and Chronic which stars the duo. This film centers around Holdens romantic relationship with Alyssa Jones Joey Lauren Adams, a self identified lesbian. Though their love is initially strong, the relationship begins to deteriorate when Holden discovers Alyssas past. Toward the end of the film, Jay and Silent Bob meet Holden to accept their likeness rights payment, and during this meeting, Silent Bob tells Holden the story of his former girlfriend, Amy. Silent Bob explains, in his longest speech to date, that much like in Holdens relationship with Alyssa, he became uncomfortable at the revelation of Amys sexual past, specifically that she had engaged in a threesome. Upon discovering this, he broke up with her, only to realize much later that he was wrong. He was not angry at her rather, he felt inadequate and insecure, as if he would never be enough given his lack of experience, but by the time he realized this, it was too late, and she had moved on. He has since spent his life chasing Amy, so to speak. Inspired by Silent Bobs story, Holden devises a plan to fix his relationship with Alyssa, but as in Silent Bobs past relationship, it is too late. Eclipse Watching Towns Are Going to Be Absolutely Slammed. The solar eclipse is rapidly approaching and, for the towns that happen to be in the narrow 7. For some towns this astronomical occurrence will be immensely profitable. As Brooke Jung, the full time eclipse marketing and events consultant in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, told Fast Company Its essentially like hosting the Super Bowl without having to build a stadium. That sounds very exciting, but for small cities that arent used to hosting major sporting events, hosting that many people may put a strain on both infrastructure and resources. If youre planning on traveling to one of these viewing locations, there are a few concerns you should be aware of Traffic is going to be bad According to Citylab, gridlocks are expected for several days before and after the eclipse, and getting in and out of the towns could feel like a major evacuation. EMS, fire fighters, and police may be slower to respond than usual Though some cities are pulling in additional personnel and positioning them in key positions ahead of traffic, its still possible that emergency responders could get locked in and slowed down. So, if you are planning on making a trek out to one of the prime eclipse viewing locations or just live near one, make sure you give yourself plenty of time, drive carefully, and be aware of potential strains on infrastructure.
