How the heck has noboby commented on the "TAI FIGHTER" poster on her door yet???

[Near Lurker]

Oh, God, those portmanteaux get me seething.  Like a man should delete all his male contacts the minute he graduates Skull & Bones.  "Man-" or "guy-" too.  "Guyliner?"  "Man-purse?"  It's a fucking purse!  Call it a "handbag" or a "tote bag" if you want to sound less feminine, but...don't do this!

And "manorexia"...dear God.  Taking a disease and putting "man" in front of it - what the hell do you think you're doing?  Really?

I always preferred putting the word "action" in front of it. Action Purse, Action Eyeliner, Action Belt, etc. It keeps it from being an obnoxious portmanteau and keeps it gender neutral.

...I liked you better without the moustache.

I just hope the girl in Tai's bed isn't the one that Steve was asking about.
Now that would be awesome!

Fixed!



Huzzah.

Someday they're going to wrap—no, I won't say it. Because some silly bugger will do it, and then the world will drown in grease, slipping down the Drain of History, but only to a certain point before causing a clog. Then will be the Coming of the Giant Plunger. And maybe the fearsome god D'rain-oy.

Perhaps you were going to say 'wrap bacon in bacon'?

BEHOLD THE FUTURE

I have totaly got to show this one to my lesbian friend, get a 'proper' opinion on the situation... Probably helps that she kinda reminds me of Tai...

Thought about that one too, but you have beated me to the punch. All I've got is the deep-fried cheese-stuffed bacon patty.

What is it about bacon that makes people so crazy? I mean, there's bacon flavored mayonnaise, which is at least food, but there are even bacon flavored envelopes.

[Border Reiver]

Must make Bacon Explosion.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

[Carl-E]

I had a bacon explosion once. 

Don't ask. 

[Carl-E]

I might've expected Bailey in the bed.  Remember her?  Last seen at Tai's impromptu rave in the library, high on Ecstasy and offering make-outs.

Perhaps it's Ashley?

Don't ask. 

Were the resulting medical bills covered by your insurance?

[Zombiedude]

I love that gif

[raoullefere]

Well it looks like the majority definitely agrees with Ellen—they'd smack that ass. And, if not them, the Newsbox.

Thanks to all for bearing with my nonsense for a week. It's been fun.

Until Marten swaps his SG even for a stock Daisy Rock Pepper Mint, make mine QC!

Edit: the comic in question. http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=386

library girl turns out to be ellens's sister and comedy ensues....

Heh heh...Action Purse sounds like another name for a ballsack.

Daisy Rock Pepper Mint

A friend of my cousin's plays one of those in his speed metal band.  People think it's a joke until they realize that he is a fucking epic guitarist.

Completely stock, no mods? And being epic might help a tad. Saw a guy once pull some fine blues out of one guitar string secured to a stick. But I couldn't do it.

I seriously thought about buying a Daisy guitar (a better model) because I've relatively teeny hands and am comfortable in my masculinity.   But no stores around here (I have about three within 150 miles, the closest is 75) carry them, or didn't last time I called. I am hesitant indeed to buy one without trying it first.

I actually wanted to use a Sears Mini-shark (yes, shaped like a shark) in my post, but I couldn't find a picture. To get an idea, the volume pot is the shark's eye.  The reviewer makes it sound okay, but I keep picturing the neck overbalancing the body and shaking my head.

Anyway, as Marten doesn't seem to be epic, he'd better stick to the SG. Also, while I'm on the subject, I think the only thing worse than treating comic characters like they're real is treating their guitars like they are real. Which is why it's really embarrassing how I cringe when I read the strip in which Nat throws down the Jackson. Ouch, ouch, ouch!

Maybe  I could call it an Action Daisy. Or maybe not.

Could it mean a design like this?

I don't know about what mods he has, but the image of a flower-shaped guitar in a speed metal band cracks me up.

Don't worry, I do too.
