That word is far worse than that atrocious cartoon and is probably the insult with the highest potency to shake up a woman in a "man's job". I have a suspicion that Bob is not totally opposed to May given his rather shapely drawing, which isn't totally flattering but isn't completely disgusting either — it's not as bad as some of Bell's depictions. Also I have no idea how 'Unicorn Pee' is supposed to taste, is it is loving terrible or like something out of Willy Wonka's alchoholic distillery ? Anyway, the cartoon isn't that bad. I suggest you go back to ironically 'beer boarding' your student flat mates guantanomo-bay style instead of dispensing judgement across the internet.

Dabir posted:what a waste of everyone's time Paul Thomas is I appreciate Mac's ability to slice through decency and belch up the most reprehensible poo poo humanly possible. It was efficient to loathe his work, because he so regularly dredged up something freshly vile to piss off the literate reader. Paul Thomas is but a pale shadow of that. Offensive in his relative inoffensiveness.
