Oh, that looks like a new toy, Sven.
It’s my new smartphone.
What is it?
A… It’s… I don’t remember what it’s called. It runs Android and it’s from Japan.
You got a phone, but you don’t know what it is?
I hate going to see movies in the theatre.
Yeah? I love it.
Do you? Do you really? Or do you just think you do?
Uhm, no, I love it. I love getting popcorn and sitting down in a big dark theatre and…
Being surrounded by a bunch of people who talk, get phone calls and generally don’t understand that a theatre isn’t their living room?
Hey guys, it’s the rare as hell TWWM News post! Yeah. I am really bad about doing these, aren’t I? Well, we’ve passed the 80 strip mark and I don’t know about you but I don’t plan on slowing down anytime soon. To that end, there will, of course, be a strip on Thursday. It may be Thanksgiving for Americans but the rest of the world wants a comic, dag-nabit! So, if you are in America, after you pass out from turkey and wake back up, come around for a strip. Hooray!
Past that, please note there is a store link up there now, as well as a bunch of links at the end of every comic. They are both great ways to show some support for the comic. Buying a shirt or mug or whatever puts money into both my hand and Matteo’s. Linking to the site, via Stumble, Digg, or twittering about it and so on increases readers which does all sorts of good things for us as well.
I think that’s it! Have a great week and there will be a comic tomorrow as always!
Did you hear about Maria?
No, what about her?
She has the H1N1 virus.
Pig flu?
Swine flu, but we don’t call it that any…
The anti-pig? The Dark Side of the Pig?!
For science!
I don’t know if you can do that, Sven.
Do what?
Just do… anything and claim it is for science in order to make it all right.
Sometimes I watch those videos of the animated singing rodents and such and…
Animated singing rodents? You mean The Chipmunks?
Sure.
Alvin? Simon? Theodore? They aren’t just singing rodents! They’re cultural icons!
I may have just won.
What did you win? What were we playing? I don’t remember playing a game, man. Shit, did I lose?
No, no, it’s all good. I just think I won.
And what did you win, then?
I wanna rock and roll all night!
And party every day?
No I think twice a week would be good. I mean sometimes you just want to watch some TV.
Yeah but “I want to rock and roll all night and watch Scrubs a few times a week!” doesn’t really scan well for a song.
