Not to go on too much about “Acting Lessons,” but in that game, Jonas and Liam are former DIKs, and two of the girls they meet in a nightclub are HOTs. Jonas has the option of taking either, or both, back to their dorm to fuck.
Clearly this takes place in the future of “Being a DIK,” much like Clerks (1994) is set on the day after Mallrats (1995). Jonas and Liam are clearly in their 30s, but in “Being a DIK” Rusty only founded the DIKs about two years before, and every original member but Vinny is still living there. And because in “Acting Lessons” the HOTs (whose outfit has since changed color) now live in the dorms instead of the HOT house… probably because it was shut down after the prostitution scandal broke.
Or, duh, it’s a parallel timeline. But I like my idea better. The MC has indicated he’s narrating the story from some point in its future, cuz he now knows but still hasn’t revealed what’s up with Bella. Whether that’s our future, or “Being a DIK” happens in the ’00s or ’10s, I don’t know, but nobody has a flip phone, so I’m guessing the ’10s—but earlier than when episode 1 was released in 2019.
