Haven't you heard the rumors? They might be giants...
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Am I the only one who thought the two regulars (the one in the green shirt and the one in the cut-off) were both female? I blame the long hair and the logic of having a "hot_girl+dumpy_girl" pair.


Edit: "dumpy" seems like a better description than "ugly."

i read that comic on and off, the green shirt is your stereotypical pasty-faced, malnourished geek. see the bags under his eyes? that's from geeking all night. give it a read, it's a fun comic.

also, totally adopting the term "dumpy" as a byword for "unkempt".

But "greenshirt's" right arm is really strong:

How is that you have so much strength in that arm?

How can he stand like that while shifting his center of mass so far forward?

Here I am, questioning webcomic physics. Somebody help.
Consumption is not a politically combative act — refraining from consumption even less so.

Okay, I snickered when I finally got it.

But we've ventured off-topic, seeing how unpolitical this is.

Here's an actual political cartoon. Might be hard for those who aren't Australian to enjoy but hilarious if you are.

Especially apropos...since the statue was a gift from France.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.
