I have to admit to skipping the past few pibgorns again. Are piss genie and robo schlong and pibgorn and demon lady working together now for some reason? I thought the first two and the last two were enemies again.

It doesn't make any more sense if you follow all of it.

I don't know why I don't just scroll past, but it's such an absolute failure on the basic level of storytelling.

Most of the info in that article was added by a user named "Scottartist". I'll leave it to your own deductive abilities to see if you can find a possible link between that account and SCOTT Roberts, the ARTIST of Working Daze.

Somehow that's even sadder, because Scott is the third artist to work on the strip.

Arlo and Janis



Is the joke that Arlo is rolling his eyes due to the acknowledgement that him and Janis eat dinner on geriatrics time? Because both of those episodes could have been 30 minutes, and 20 minutes of cleanup would put dinner time at 6:20 which isn't thaaat early.

If that's not the joke then tell me, I've been known to become confused about the funnies before.

Okay, two questions. 1) Are they playing strip dice?! 2) What is a whiffle anyway?
1) There's an old-timey joke where people on a bad losing streak run through all of their money and start betting (and losing) their clothes, eventually having to go home wearing a barrel with suspenders.

2) The whiffle hen is a made-up bird. "Whiffle" (sometimes "wiffle") was a name for the haircut given to WW2 soldiers, aka a crewcut, which is probably why he named it that (the three hairs you rub for luck stick out on the top of the bird's head). It's apparently also a verb describing the blowing of a light wind in a particular direction.

Mandrake is not actually peeling the gently caress out on the courtroom steps, unfortunately, but is making those goons believe that he is.

What part of Phantom's mission compels him to revisit the scene of the crime and have a private laugh about how the authorities don't know who he is? It's like he wants to be caught. "Wait, Bob, you had that weird sunglasses guy on your scene too?"

Yeah, young doctor sindrome. Luckily it fades away quickly. My :derp: girlfriend :derp: is a clinical psychologist and after ten years on the job her diagnosis is usually "wow she's hosed in the head" or "how the gently caress am I suppoused to know". Young doctors are cute.
