Some Guy TT posted:Comics (February 5th 2007) The joke is that sometimes record labels will flood file-sharing sites with corrupt copies of albums and singles that are anticipated to be high download risks, since turning to piracy is often more about convenience than price. Make it hard enough to get a working copy of a song and people will just spend the 99 cents on itunes instead. It's not a very funny joke, but it is Accurate and Verifiable Comix. Pooch Café  I will keep this up until the end of the storyline if I have to. Ballard Street  Those look like really unwieldy juggling pins. The neck's too short, the head's too big and the belly and skirt practically form a cylinder. They're shaped exactly like a Ballard resident.

No, the joke is "pop musician's greatest hits collection is zero kb because pop music sucks". You're giving this one too much credit.

Mr. Squishy posted:How did this even happen Grandpa? A few weeks ago I came home from some job interview. I stepped out of my car right onto a patch of ice. I didn't fall but I did spin and the momentum sent the car keys in my hand flying into the middle of the lawn that had like 2+ feet of snow. I spent a good half hour digging to find them again. I imagine grandpa lost them in a similar way only they came flying out of his mouth into the lawn.

BlankIsBeautiful posted:Kevin & Kell You know, a few days ago when you suggested that Lindesfarne just stand between the two or whatever, I was going to comment that that would put her either in the aisle or where the priest would be standing. Turns out that's what's actually happening. One or both of us is prescient.

RandomFerret posted:I'm talking to you, Bitchtits.  Jim's Journal  We don't find out who this man was or why he turned around until Season 3. Johnny Hazard  Yep, called it. Hero's gotta have a love interest, and ain't hardly no other way for 'em to write a woman into the middle of a war zone. Krazy Kat   Is anyone else getting an almost Holbrookian vibe of oblivious implications here? I really hope this isn't setting up a new week's theme...Classic Mandrake  According to Wikipedia: "Lothar is invulnerable to any weapon forged by man, impervious to heat, cold and possesses the stamina of a thousand men. He also cannot be harmed by magic directly (fire bolts, force bolts, spell incantations)." Seems like about the only superpower he doesn't have is flight. (Though it also says he's really only the second strongest man in the world, after Mandrake's chef, Hojo, but as he's Japanese and this story was published in 1941 I'd be extremely surprised if they even exist yet.) Dan Dare: Pilot of the Future   It's unlikely these Crypts will turn out to be anything but the Thermians' less credulous predecessors, but I think I'm starting to hate them anyway.

Jonah is confusing the speed of light (I think) and sound so he's probably going to travel too fast by accident.

Comic New York is probably subjected to so many localised sonic booms that Reed Richards has built special dampening systems into the road surface so that it doesn't even mess people's hair.

Tunicate posted:They used to share a TV show. The Ruby-Spears Heathcliff lasted two seasons on Saturday Mornings. The first season was called "Heathcliff and Dingbat". It's one of those shows with two different cartoons sharing the same time-slot. In this case, there were four segments in each half-hour: two with Heathcliff, and two with "Dingbat and the Creeps", about a vampire dog and his friends. "Dingbat" was an original creation of the Ruby-Spears studio and had absolutely nothing to do with the comic strip. For the second season, they got rid of "Dingbat" and replaced it with "Marmaduke". Again, four segments, with two Heathcliffs and two Marmadukes. However, only one "Heathcliff" was new in each show; they would rerun the first season segments for the other slot. Scatman Crothers sang the theme song for the second season with Marmaduke. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNYujwGsetI
