Of course painting is pretty different from drawing.

Specifically, oil painting is a hell of a lot easier. I'm a really lovely freehand artist but only moderately lovely at oil painting.

Sammy's actually the character who replaced Ebony White because, as I'm sure you're aware, he sort of made Out Our Way's depiction of black people look progressive and nuanced.

Honestly, aside from the unfortunate art style (which is bad but typical when it was drawn), Out Our Way was pretty progressive for its time.

The cowboys theme in particular has a evenhanded portrayal of Big Ick compared with the other cowboys - half of them are illiterate, they all play the buffon at times, and all of them (except Wes) are written with heavy dialect.

Possibly the safest as well. During the spider verse story arc in the comics that had the villain hunt and eat as many versions of Spider-Man as possible to gain power, the main villain actually wandered into the newspaper comic Spider-Man's universe. He eventually gave up because of the nature of repeating everything after and it would take days or even weeks to do anything of consequence.

Also spidey woke up from One More Day and just said it was a bad dream

It makes sense in Finnish - 'läppä' means joke, wisecrack etc. There's probably an English synonym that would pass but my thesaurus had nothing.

Pretend I posted that comic with the villain who came to newspaper spideyverse, then decided he'd never get anything done because of all the repetition.

Oh, I got this. Bleeker just placed the bucket over top of Refurb, scooped him up and flipped the bucket over. In the process Refurb became predictably dismembered but his head managed to end up on top somehow.

If you shake a mixed bucket, the mixture seperates out by density! :eng101:

Refurb's head is pretty empty.

What is the penalty for guessing? You either get it right or not, right?


The SAT was set up with five multiple choice questions. Correct answers give +1, incorrect answers give -0.25.

End result is that random guessing gives an expected value of 0.
