Let's start early this week.

syrupykeyboard · « **Reply #1 on:** 21 Nov 2009, 23:11 »

Wow. Real early. Although I guess it is technically Sunday now.
So. What will Monday's comic be? Marten & Steve & Tai & Mystery Girl?
Faye & Dora & Hannelore?
Marigold & Angus?

Le suspens est excessif!

When we don't have a comic, we have Twitter. The latest:

Someday I want to be in a band with Joey and Emily from A Softer World.

My family and I were once playing an old edition of Trivial Pursuit, and Yuri Gagarin came up as the answer no less than three times. Now if we don't know the answer, we just say him.

Carl-E · « **Reply #4 on:** 22 Nov 2009, 16:23 »

My old circle of friends used Peter Lorre for the same reason. And once, in a game with new people, it actually worked...

akronnick · « **Reply #5 on:** 22 Nov 2009, 18:28 »

Maybe there was a flood.

(My family's stock answer when the actual facts are not readily apparent. see also creationism)

Maybe there was a flood, and Yuri Gagarin and Peter Lorre were the last humans on earth. Then…
Then I think I'll quit while I'm behind.

And Dliessmgg, it never occurred to me the Newsbox might want to screw around with Tai. Literally.

The newsbox is Pintsize and Yellingbird after a fusion dance.

Marten really has a knack for getting into these really uncomfortable situations.

akronnick · « **Reply #9 on:** 23 Nov 2009, 02:11 »

"Do you see my panties anywhere" is an awkward thing to say in any circumstance, but for the person you just met, who is not comfortable around atrractive ladies who are not his sweetie, it must be murder.

Quick say something ridiculous...

Tai continues to radiate newfound cuteness. And if Marten doesn't care for such situations, I'm told he should be single and sexually insatiable at all times, and constantly announce both of these statuses. He might also make an effort to voice crude comments, followed by a laugh phonetically approximated by hur, hur, hur.

Really? Because several of my friends who graduated from Hampshire are now doing lab research at Harvard for their graduate work.

Hey, maybe this new Annette person is one of Raven's professors? Or does their social circle have too many closed loops as it is already?

Not until they all have a Erdös-Bacon number of 2.

It may explain why she's late for her office hours so often...

"it" reffering to either the dope or not being able to find her panties. Or both.

Mmmmm..... Erdös bacon..... I can hear it sizzling and popping already!

kent_eh · « **Reply #20 on:** 23 Nov 2009, 06:34 »

So, WTF is Annette's tattoo?
Some massive winged creature?
A "tramp stamp" that is too big for her back?

Or is that some artifact of the "session" that her and Tai just finished?

Mad Cat · « **Reply #21 on:** 23 Nov 2009, 07:38 »

I call a pair of massive angel wings backpiece, so massive the lower tips of them wrap around her kidneys.

Speaking as a physics teacher type person, I can attest that it's extremely easy to lecture on that material while stoned. Not from personal experience, mind you, at least not the illicit form of recreational chemistry.

Llewellian · « **Reply #22 on:** 23 Nov 2009, 08:05 »

I dont know how stoned physics teachers are, but i can tell from expirience: Never ever have a pair of drunken physics teachers near a 1 ton trebuchet. They radiate "silly" ideas.

I dunno from that, but it's amazing what a few beers can do for a calculus lecture!

It looked to me like it was supposed to be someone's hands grabbing Annette's waist - a tattoo version of the hands-on-boobs nightie here. Now that you've mentioned wings, though, I guess the "fingertips" do look a bit pointy.

Carl-E · « **Reply #29 on:** 23 Nov 2009, 12:28 »

Reminds me of a church camp t-shirt my daughter came home with one year - had Jesus with his hands outspread in a very inappropriate location.

Looked like he was supporting every young lady at camp, and if he'd just turn his head he could motorboat... needless to say, it's brought out for a good laugh on a regular basis. She calls it "feel me Jesus".

For me, it's Marius, because in the production I saw, Valjean was one of the best singers I've ever heard, and Marius was not good at all.

There's really nothing wrong with Cosette; it's just the musical's deliberately sympathetic towards Eponine.

My hate stems directly from the fact that my nickname IS Eponine. Because I'm cool. Not lame.

I just keep digging myself a deeper hole, don't I?
Also, the last panel in today's comic cracked me up, and made this stupid essay a lot better.

The problem is, of course, that we can all of us see Steve doing exactly that, especially if he got drunk enough. Or we would really like to, so long as we don't actually see his mantenna.

Ambush dating. Will it ever catch on (again)?

No. i dont think we know each other. But it seems that physics teachers and trebuchets have much in common... there are high school events where you get extra points for hitting your teacher with a trebuchet...

Steve really isn't the type to think things through, is he? This was probably an advantage when he worked for the DoKYA, I mean who would enter a villian's volcanic lair if they'd actually thought it through?

And is Tai putting the bong on the windowsill? Or is she about to dump the bongwater out the window? bleah...

I was pretty sure she was wearing jammies, maybe boxers. Looks like there's a fly. All you see is the waistband and top inch or so, anyway.

Besides, the standards of decency in a dorm are quite different.

I am afraid I'm with Marten on this one. Just too creepy. But Steve looks pretty desperate.
