Smaller underwear would be tighter when stretched across a coat hanger, therefore affording more firepower, not less.

He has been preparing for 24 hours, probably more knowing Steve.

Says so in the previous strip.

And he doesn't look very ottery to me.

Thats the perfect cameo point for the real Onstad. Just have him be entirely in shadow.

Lets be realistic here Onstad isn't gonna play himself in the movie (I saw his skit at RIT)


EDIT: Actually you feigned rage pretty good. Maybe it was just the comparison between you and Gurewitch

Sorry about that. I missed your earlier post and just got so excited when I thought I was about to get Volume 3, then I got the 1-2 punch with the Bloom County book. I'm more worried about the latter, to be honest, since it's such a big five volume project and I'm terrified they'll run out of steam or lose interest before completing it. Achewood's still a living, breathing strip and I'm sure the kinks and delays will be worked out for future editions.

Maybe the in car toilet is for little kids.

I once once on a family road trip and we were stuck in gridlock on I-90. My nephew had to pee so bad he started crying and my brother had no choice but to pull over and make an impromptu screen for his kid to piss behind.

Even then, I would rather pull over and teach a kid how to dig a cat hole than cart around fresh poo poo in a van in the middle of summer.

It's like a prayer bead thing. You flip them in a regular tempo, when you have gone all the way around you have reached the ideal bowel time. If you're still not done, you need to look into your diet.

I don't think the neatly disposable bags saves this installation. At a family outing: "Kids, when I stand up I need you to quickly tie it up and put in a new one. I had a lot of mashed potatoes last night." "It's hard to wipe when it's so cramped, can you check if I missed any spots?" and so on.
