buddy, maybe chill it with the graphic extreme kink banter <3
Liara
I mean, that’s just the logical consequence of using a human as a ventriloquist dummy.
Also cute that some anal fisting is “extreme kink” for you
Taffy
Not everyone needs to think about getting digested by an octopus to get off. What’s “cute” for one person can be too far for others, and that’s not really anything to smirk at people over.
*shrug* i’m not that invested frankly, i just think it’s good to have a tiny bit of restraint?
i don’t agree that Ana’s comment was implicitly sexual. sex talk is fine, and for my part even welcome and enjoyable, but perhaps not completely out of the blue, especially this high in the section? let’s just try to keep the space welcoming, you know? is my thought process here. Besides there has been pushback against too much unprompted sexual discourse in the past.
i absolutely did not mean to kink-shame, i’m sorry if it came across as such
Randy posted something disgusting at some point? Wow. I had no idea. I think I’ve been reading something positive for over a decade, and always thought his stuff was pretty clean. Sure, he can be a little abrasive at times, but really, who isn’t now and then?
Wizard
The very first strip featured Davan sending an ex-girlfriend a coathanger as a baby shower gift. Pepito the sex dwarf. Redneck trees. Rippy the Razor. Most of the worst stuff was more suggested than explicit, but it only takes a little imagination to crank the “Yikes” factor to eleven. I’ve always figured that Randy’s goal was to offend absolutely everyone at some point. Hey, everyone should have some kind of goal, right?

When I met him, here in Austin years ago, that Hanger comic was on his signing card. ‘Welcome to my comic!’ He’s just a grumpy teddy bear, tho.
Accidentally flagged. We invited Randy to speak at our Pagan church (there are such things and we were one) right after the “Fluffy Bunny Pagan” incident, because most of the Elders really liked that strip and were of a similar mindset and that was right after I was promoted to Elder status against my will. That was the second largest crowd to attend a service, and we really enjoyed listening to him talk about the UU First Principle (which he did very well for not being a public speaker. One of the Elders used to sign emails “Fluffy Bunnies Belong In A Stew”, so you can understand how well Randy went over with the congregation.

I’m assuming the comment you’re replying to was sarcasm (for the reasons you list), but you never can tell on that internet…
Interesting sidenote to drive the point home: The only one on your list that came to my mind was the coathanger one, I went straight to a particular storyline with Monette and some of the stuff that happened to Ollie.
That might not be as much of a concern as you think. My ex was a lot more shy than I was, and yet I made use of that paradigm a fair amount.
Admittedly, that was after I spent nine years assuring her she was better at the social than me when she got up enough courage to go there. Some of the process of that assurance was my totally legitimately figuratively chugging my foot figuratively in front of her. I think she was probably less shy than me by the time she proposed, but absolutely was less shy than me by the time we got married.
That said, I’m still a lot less reserved about talking with complete strangers in person. She wants to have a pretty good understanding of who she’s talking to before she says anything. I’m still kind of like the kid who told a bunch of truckers who deliberately sat in the non-smoking section of a virtually empty truck stop restaurant, right next to the only other group of people in the restaurant and started smoking cigars, “Give a hoot, don’t pollute.”
A few months worth?! Last I remember the Walkman was struggling. I mean the concept of jump kicking folks is one you can milk for years, but I don’t remember him putting in that much work yet.
thejeff
I don’t remember him struggling. Last I remember he was setting up for the merch. 🙂
And it was the first thing that had held his interest that long, so it’s not too surprising he’s stayed focused on it.
Though I agree it’s probably not months worth of strips.
It’s really annoying how hard it can be to get more money for a job without being promoted out of it. I guess some people think it’s “unfair”, but those people are wrong.
Yeah, when your own, it’s a constant calculus of “Is anybody going to be there who I can usually rely on to talk for me, or failing that, just instead of me?”
Daibhid C
“…when you’re on your own…” that should be.
I typed “when you’re”, I got distracted for a microsecond, and then I looked back and thought “no, it’s not ‘you’re,’ it’s ‘your'” and carried on from there.
So these two lunches are not occurring in the same place, right?
The cups are green and the chairs are red here, but the cups are white and the booth is purple in the other strip.

Walky: ventriloquism dummy

That’s an awkward angle, and I never pegged Lucy for Top anal fisting, but you can never tell what winds a person up.

If it’s the Princess Diana comic, yeah. Mind you, I’m still a big fan.

Heh heh. “Pegged.”
MacareuxMoine
Nope: given that he makes her speak while having his mouth full, I’d say she is the ventriloquism dummy here.

So Walky is the one we need to peg now, then?
Stephen Bierce
Efficient division of labor there.

That’s my target as marriage, too.
The risk is: found an even more shy people than me, as my last date were.

It hasn’t even been a week and he probably was able to pump out a few months worth of strips.

Ha, I had my annual review yesterday.
Manager: We’ll be looking for a new team leader soon. Would you…?

Manager: No, that’s what I thought, but I had to ask.

Walky is the Undertaker and Lucy is Paul Bearer.

Trying to avoid Walkyisms, eh? So considerate.
…Walkying it up doesn’t have a good ring to it, though, so you’re good. 🙂

It’s frequently best to just nod occasionally – hopefully at appropriate points.

Thats always been the tricky bit, though for me NOT laughing at the inappropriate parts can be even more so.

per alt-txt, yeah

Hey, just like at home before university!
…Shit, I made myself sad.

Walky seems really good with girlfriends’ family. Everybody remember how great he was with Dorothy’s?

I remember him sneaking off to make out with her dad.
