This one continues the breaking of the fourth wall – a gag started in the previous strip. I’m much happier with this one. The joke’s funny for a change, the art’s decent, and that shot of Colin is worth the price of admission. It’s so wrong, it’s right. Know what I mean?
Who wouldn’t want a leopard print speedo, anyway?
Siding with Phoebe here. The less explicit, the more erotic. TTT https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Ware_Theiss On the other hand it is not so easy to perspectively draw the “attached” salat spinner torque wrench without revealing to much.
Pretty much. Though I would say the ‘praying for it’ part is mostly due to the fact that it never happens. If the tables were turned and suddenly men were getting harassed constantly, I think we’d start getting annoyed … eventually.
If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumbered here,
While these visions did appear;
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend.
If you pardon, we will mend.
And as I am an honest puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to ‘scape the serpent’s tongue,
We will make amends ere long,
Else the puck a liar call.
So, good night unto you all.
Give me your hands if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.
Those speedos can get complaints even when worn by men.
There was an incident in college where women were complaining about men whistling at them when they were lying out in sun in bikinis, some micro, in well trafficked areas. The whistlers responded to complaints by wearing speedos telling them to whistle all they want. Some complained including some saying “stuff tissues in it” saying speedos were not filled enough. A number of girls in bikinis were less endowed than Puck on bad day and there were no comments about stuffing their tops by men.
It would be funny if you weren’t lying about complaints.
Well, no one knew about the lying at the time. I had to go and spoil it for you. In the name of honesty. Honesty sucks.
But you’re not complaining about the fairies, devil offspring, and the whole “fiction” thing?
Hmm. I think the humor still works, even knowing there were no complaints. In a meta sort of way, I think it works brilliantly.
If I think a gag’s funny, I’ll go with it. Even if it makes no sense. That’s the case here.
fanservice!
Of the WORST variety…
Spank him AND something. Alotta something.
Something, huh?

Ah, the differences between male and female psyches. Most women hate being objectified while most men pray for it.

Probably, but it might take a LONG time.

Yur nutz.
it would neva get old.
I’ll neva be an object.
Trust me.
(sigh)
Welcome to the club. If I was going to be an objectified man, it would have occurred over 40 years ago.
Can you buy those speedos in bulk? Might need a gross.
I won’t ask why.

Tissues never look right. On either sex.
