VALENTINE’S DAY CAT STUFF! AGAIN?
Last year we somehow got on this ‘Valentine Cats’ thing, and it’s back for some reason. A new voting incentive pic is going to be popping up each week, so…
VOTE FOR OLD DEUTERONOMY’S SAKE!!!
As for this comic…
Is this weakness on Colin’s part … or self-preservation? You decide!
Oh noes, we have to fix him right away! We need his “Fred”! 😉
Thought he was Fred.
Well, he didn’t want to get the costume dirty.
He isn’t wearing an ascot.
The ascot is what conveys the manly power, I suppose.
either way, he didn’t wanna get caught in the catfight.. which sounds great, as long as YOU’RE not in the middle of it.
Exactly. You sound like you speak from experience.
I’ve seen that stuff on TV, it’s pretty and dangerous.. depending on your location. also my brother went through that 1 time, long story.
Colin did the right thing.
He might get some minor flak for not standing by Puck… but I think she’s too mad at Phoebe blame him.
When you’re dealing with a heat-seeking missile that’s already locked onto a target, just keep your temp low and get out of the way.
In that case, throw distracting flares just as reduce your heat signature.
Colin: Remember that time we were all naked?
Puck: —
Phoebe: —
Daphne: Well Miranda, I think that the Peanut Butter is safe this time.
Remember when this comic was kinda racy? I remember that too. Good times.
I’ve had dreams like this … although they did end differently … ~_^
Now I want to know how they ended.
Colin, THIS is why we were yelling at you get out of that room BEFORE you got sucked into the argument.
Or, better, out of the house.
Out of Hamilton would have been best.
The real reason he was standing around was so that he could be there for this joke. In reality, I think he probably would have hightailed out of there the second it started.
Nah…
That would have meant he had SOME intelligence.
Though you would have thought just a simple git of self-preservation instinct should have sufficed.
Colin doesn’t have much intelligence, but even no-brained tiny multicellular life has a survival instinct. And Colin has that in spades!
But all of his cool stuff’s in Hamilton. As well as his lack of immediate family.
“Randy lay there like a slug. It was his only defense”
-Ralphie, A Christmas Story
Colin really is a lot like Randy. He hides under the sink, he plays dead. So many similarities.
My, my, this is giving me flashbacks to their college days! 😀
Well, we gotta slip in a little retro flavor every now and then.
Safety was never an option.
Just living in this house is very, very dangerous.
That’s just the fraying asbestos.
This is the sort of conflict that started the Trojan war
Exactly. And imagine all the misery that would have been avoided if Paris had responded to those goddesses the way Colin did.
I’m sure the only thing Colin regrets is he doesn’t have a school desk to hide under.
A desk! A desk! My kingdom for a desk!
He keeps that at school.
Hey, school has a distinct absence of this! He should go there! And be further demoralized by the nonsense there.
Different varieties of nonsense everywhere you turn.
People, you know?
Too much redheads. Brain shutting down….
Too much ginger ruins the cookie, amirite?
There’s gotta be some karmic comeuppance on these two for this much disrespect toward Velma. Like Daphne plays Daphne while Puck and Phoebe cos-play Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Dum….Perhaps Hot Dog Guy needs to stage an intervention….
I think the slight to Velma is mostly unintentional. They haven’t even given a thought to why they don’t want to play Velma. They just have fixated on Daphne. It’s like people who are caught in an unrequited love dynamic who say, “The object of my affection is so cruel for ignoring me!” They’re not being cruel. They just don’t think about you. At all. Which I guess is even harder to accept, on some level.
True dat.
Peter Lorre: You despise me, don’t you?
Humphrey Bogart: Oh, I suppose I would, if I gave you any thought.
-from “The Maltese Falcon” 😉
No, “Casablanca.”
Yes. That.
“I’m Spartacus!” “No, I’m Spartacus!”
Kirk Douglas would be proud.
a double-ended rake…
as in, a rake on BOTH ends of the handle (more damage that way)
Colin has well and truly stepped on the rake.
oops…
make that a double-ended rake…
meaning a rake at BOTH ends of the handle.
That inflicts much more damage.
But stepping on this rake may save him from an even bigger, deadlier rake.
I know you meant to post this below, but still- it’s oddly appropriate for Kirk Douglas.
well i said it before he should have run much earlier cuse it was bound to happen….it took longer than i thought but it happend.
He only stuck around because I needed him for this joke. In all honesty.
At least he’s needed. 🙂
I wouldn’t have run, either. Freeze is a perfectly valid, if often wrong, choice in these situations.
Making popcorn is not.
All the Avatars are gone today.
Most strange.
The site was updated to https over the weekend. Might have something to do with it. Honestly, I don’t know. The fact that this site is functioning at all anymore is a miracle.
colin clearly still has much to learn – just pointing out that he can´t speak against his girlfriend would´ve mollyfied puck and made sense to phoebe. no chick wants to discourage a guy´s loyalty to his woman!
Such statements require words. Colin is not good at those.
Ah, to play Russian Roulette and have a bullet in every chamber…
It’s the only way to play the odds.
The true answer to Vizzini’s puzzle is to assume both are poisoned.
Poor guy. All he wanted to do was geek out at a party for people who like a show.
It is fun, though.
What was that movie with Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn where they were opposing lawyers in a case?
It was called “Legally Blonde”. Spencer Tracy was played by Reese Witherspoon.
No, there’s a good line in there about men being able to cry on demand too, we just don’t find much use for it.
That and it’s a good movie with a song about verandas and Amandas.
Let’s be fair to Colin: he’s just one human vs. a fairy plus a devil. 😉
You’d think the fact they’re against each other on this point would give him a leg up, but no.
Just surviving this long is a testament to his durability.
Part of the problem, I suspect, is that Colin would switch to Phoebe if she were interested in him.
I guess they’re all very lucky that Phoebe isn’t interested in him.
@EG, well he doesn’t look anything like the Papa Schnorff dude, that’s for sure!
Weakness or self-preservation?
Doesn’t NEED to be “Either/Or”.
The 2 states don’t contradict, or cancel each-other out.
#Just_Sayin’
Well put.
To be fair, Puck’s a natural redhead, Phoebe’s not.
That is an indisputable fact.
My thoughts on this is that he has strategically placed himself below skirt level to get a better angle on the situation so that he can better decide. Also there are a couple of other things he is now under… hmmm.. There the comic is racy again, you’re welcome.
You scoundrel, you!
Phoebe can go as “Racy Daphne ” dressed just as she is. :p
She certainly wouldn’t be the only one at the con.
Phoebe’s experience with men appears to be somewhere between superficial and nonexistent, and this is sad for her. She needs a real relationship.
Well, it might happen. One day.
I forgot Papa Shnorf and he was a cad. Hopefully, he didn’t poison Phoebe’s outlook on a real relationship.
Have Phoebe’s mad clothing fabrication skills been addressed before? Did she make a deal with Daddy for them?
She’s just naturally talented. Any Satanic gifts are entirely genetic.
I though that’s what she went to school for.
I miss my avatar.
I’m looking at it, dude. It shows up on MY screen.
Colin comes pre-broken, and they both know it.
100% true. It’s a selling feature with him!
oh damn a class 5 hericane run colin run, run for the nearest bars doorway
No escape.
I wonder what if Colin had said “Since you’re both acting like spoiled children, I declare DAPHNE IS THE BEST DAPHNE.” 😉
He would never say that. Besides, I think Daphne would view playing Daphne as a curse.
Poor fool. He waited to long to flee.
He should have fled before it even began.
