In Ghostbusters, ghosts are real.

In Scooby Doo, ghosts are actually rich, greedy white men in a costume trying to scare off those meddling kids.

So are the ghosts real or not?

All I know is the kids in the Mystery Machine have good weed.

Ghostbusters are the backup crew in case it's real this time

Somebody is obviously trying to cover all the bases. That's just good thinking. If ghost are real, they get zapped. If they aren't real, they get to chase a group of adolescents all over the place for about 20 minutes before said adolescents figure out it's not a ghost for the umpteenth time.

Unless it's a real person who gets zapped. Then it's manslaughter.

Just catch the ghost afterwards.

It ain't gonna kill ya to get zapped. I mean not immediately. Radiation sickness and lymphoma can take awhile.

There are real ghosts in some of the Scooby Doos

Racist.

You also clearly have very limited experience with Scooby Doo. There's lots of real monsters and ghosts in the series.

What race is being discriminated against here? I'm pretty sure monsters would be a species, not a race.
