As mentioned before it'd still be illegal in high school wrestling but this is especially funny to me because thanks to rampant Comics Curmudgeon reading years ago there was a plot in Gil Thorp where it was revealed one of the players on the football team accidentally killed a friend years ago doing a fallaway slam to him (in a backyard wrestling context).


(note: there is a good probability this is not a fallaway slam he is doing)

Granted this was in 2007 and Gil Thorp's a bit faster about time progression than most soap opera comics so by now a one Mr. Cully Vale had probably gone on to wrestle Count Crushinski at some point (have Gil Thorp and Rex Morgan ever crossed paths? I dunno)

In my opinion, it's mostly defensive. If I don't put things away, the cleaning people will hide them in the worst possible place. Ask me about how I found my mail-in ballot in a laundry bag.

In addition to everything this story is handling well, this negotiation about "do we really need to do surgery?" also feels very real. Completely different level of seriousness, of course, but I'm currently dealing with a wisdom tooth that decided to come in for my 50th birthday and I've been having similar conversations with my dentist.

Didn't you mean to ask about flowers?

I'm glad Jules drew the harp dropping in increasingly lovely thought bubbles three days in a row, shamelessly submitting a doodle on Wednesday, so that we might understand what it means that a woman let a harp fall to the ground and a cat was nearby. Also the constant thought bubbles reminding us what cats and banjos are and what they do. I think we also need another... it's Thursday, so at least two more days of Cherry saying OUTDOOR CATS DO BAD OUTDOOR CAT THINGS, maybe with a reminder of how Banjo made Violet act like an idiot?

quote:

The Phantom




Now speaking of an artist clearly rushing his way through a paycheck: yeesh! Nice ghoul eyes, dude. And nice jackass smirk from the Phantom, trying to get his son to date a woman by grinning at him like the Joker and practically saying "scared of women, pussy?"

I wonder what notes and drafts they're giving the artist to get this slow motion wreck.

was a dude who got a manager spot at my work, and this pissed off everyone in the department who had worked there for years; the assistant manager was told he wasn't experienced enough, his assistant the same. the new dude came from an entire other department and had to be trained by everyone how to use every single machine.

they called him Corky instead of his name. he lasted about 3 months on the job before he went elsewhere.
