JUNE VOTING INCENTIVE READY TO BE INTERCEPTED!!!
I asked my fine patrons on Patreon about the nouns they wanted to see in a voting incentive. Then I collected them all, put them to a chaotic vote, and am going to spend the next while making those noun dreams a reality through crazy voting incentives!
VOTE TO SEE NOUNS BY THE POUNDS!!!
As for this comic…
It’s been a while since a good old-fashioned threat of violence from our leading lady. I thought I’d bring us back to basics with this one.
Somebody swiped a “C” and a “K.”
They’re hot letters. Go for a lot on the black market.
Surprised someone didn’t take an ‘A’ and two ‘S’s.
Because I can see an idiot doing that.
My PO box has a zip code ending in “zero;” for many years they had it mounted outside the entrance just a little off the wall, enough for someone to reach underneath. Every few months somebody would steal the “zero.”
nah, they were probably scrapped long ago.
I had a stick growing up.
I taught quite a few friends how to drive it.
Getting into first gear was always the first lesson.
Once they mastered that the I allowed them to drive it for real.
Dammit Colin.
He never fails to disappoint.
She gave him a choice.
What could be more fair?
Exactly.
Ok, I was onboard with the idea that he couldn’t shift well enough to pull off a Y turn, but how’d he get it rolling the first time? And goodness, how many times did it take before he got it to the house?
That poor engine..
The transmission might not survive this experience.
I’m sure with therapy and adiquite family support, it’ll be fine. It might have to switch jobs, but it’ll be fine.
So when’s the next voting incentive?
Next week.
Old gas station on a lonely road with a seemingly normal guy in a chair out front.
Somewhere lurks Crazy Ralph: https://youtu.be/z1g1ZB4WNhw
You know where this is going.
Crazy Ralph vs Cranky Puck? I know where my bet is going.
RALPH: “You’re goin’ to that Scooby Con, aint ya? It’s cursed, you know. Y’all are gonna d… ouch, hey, aah, ow, quittit.”
PUCK: “Just give us directions, then shut the hell up, old man. I am NOT in the mood.”
I’d vote for this one.
going by personal experience, thats the *minimum* amount of threat one needs to use to get a guy to ask for directions – apparently its against some unwritten bro-code to admit that you´ve lost your way. its right up there with asking women for advice! if it happens too often, you run the risk of your balls falling off 😉
And Colin already lost one ball. So high stakes.
Isn’t the correct protocol that the GIRL will ask for directions and the guy will complain it was not necessary then use those instruction to get where they were heading?
The face. It needs saving.
here we go with THAT trope, again?
Guys, I was a trucker for 19 years and I was always ensuring I had good directions.
If that meant I had to ask for directions, I did.
Maybe trucking is a bit out of the ordinary for mainstream culture, but we are guys too.
So guys DO ask for directions.
I will ask for directions when necessary but hate doing so, mainly because I dislike talking to people, and I usually find the people I ask to be unhelpful. They either send me the wrong way or give me directions that I have a hard time following.
I also hate people asking me for directions. The past few times I’ve been asked for directions, the people have asked how to get to some place on the opposite end of the city. It would take me twenty minutes to break down the exact route they’d need to go. I end up just saying something like, “Drive east for a half hour and then stop to ask someone else.”
Man have I done that.
And then they ask you a question that you just explained! ‘Cause the streets are funny ’cause this is a REAL place!
I was once stopped by a car full of tourists if I knew where the mall was. There was, in fact, a mall 5 minutes up the road, but after 5 minutes of confused conversation, I realized that the mall that THEY were looking for was over an hour and a half away! I pointed this out and attempted to politely suggest that they choose the nearby mall instead but they were having nothing to do with that idea. I eventually told them to go south and wished them luck.
Yeah, that. Exactly that. I’ve had people ask for directions to places on the far side of Toronto. The near side of Toronto is an hour’s drive away.
It seems to me that when making a living is involved, it is ok to do whatever the job requires. Asking directions is part of the job and no big deal.
But when a guy is trying to assert his manhood by acting like he is not in total command of every situation, things become problematic. Especially when he – such as Colin – is demonstrably not in command.
ooops, that should have been “acting like he IS in total control”…
I’m not even in control of my own words sometimes. More coffee!!!
You do NOT question the redheads Colin. Have you learned NOTHING?!
Answer: no. He has learned nothing.
He married said redhead. that argues against his potential for learning.
He’s asked her and she’s said yes. It hasn’t happened yet.
I’m hoping they wait for when all of Ontario is in bloom.
What happens then?
Prom
I imagine that happened from time to time in the “Real” M.M. Prove it didn’t!
Slim Jims actually snap? Isn’t that more like pulling it apart? Just breaking his legs sounds a lot more compassionate.
According to Randy “Macho Man” Savage, you snap into a Slim Jim. It wouldn’t be my verb of choice, though.
Me neither.
Ooooooooh yeaaaaaaah.
I think it might be wise to stop….and for some reason im hungry for breadsticks
Gotta love classic Italian cuisine.
Puck must be getting hungry. 😉
Where dem Scooby Snacks at?
Does no one else in this van drive?
Phoebe can certainly afford a car, and presumably has to get to her Howlers job somehow. The teens in the backseat are old enough to take driving lessons (granted, their high school likely doesn’t provide such instruction as I understand happens in US schools. There are private businesses that provide that training in Ontario.)
Puck… Come to think of it, she’s still unemployed, isn’t she? Stay-at-home-mom. She had the job at Howlers wearing the wolf-suit, but must have stopped that once she became more heavily pregnant.
There are only two people who drive in the household: Colin and Phoebe. And Phoebe definitely doesn’t drive stick. The teens aren’t driving yet (though maybe they’ll learn soon), and Puck has never learned.
And she stopped the job as the Howlers mascot after only one day.
To be fair, it WAS a disaster.
