Oh man. Boy is my face red. I got all ahead on the comics last week
and I was actually able to update remotely, but then I didn't get a
comic up on Friday cuz I was so tired and I had lunch plans with some
people and then I had to go to Las Vegas. If I hadn't had to go I would
have put a comic up, even if it was late in the day. But still, now
we know the remote update can be done, so we'll try that again this
week and then hopefully get the Friday comic up too. So not a total
loss.
Vegas was cool. It turns out that if you pound Bailey's Irish Cream
all night, you'll spend the next morning giving birth to the apocalypse.
While sitting on the toilet. Y'know, in case you didn't get my implication.
But yeah being drunk is fun. Making bets with drunk friends about the
cup-size of your waitress is also fun. I should stop talking.
Oh man, also, and honestly nobody on earth is going to care about this,
but I bought the most obnoxious t-shirt ever. It's like too small for
me, it's like a child's large, I can barely get it on. The entire t-shirt
is yellow, it's SpongeBob's face, and the caption reads "WHATEVER
DUDE." And then it says Las Vegas. So not only is it obnoxiously
small, it's obnoxiously SpongeBob, the "Las Vegas" printed
on it is obnoxiously touristy, and holy crap, it says "WHATEVER
DUDE" on it, which is a somewhat obnoxious thing by itself, but
also, SpongeBob would NEVER say "whatever" and he would NEVER
say "dude." So on top of all of this obnoxiousness, the t-shirt
itself betrays a complete lack of familiarity with the character on
the part of the t-shirt's creators. Unbelievable.
Las Vegas is not hip. It only pretends to be hip enough to sell that
image to tourists. As evidence I submit also that the SpongeBob statue
outside of the SpongeBob 4-D ride has no buckteeth, and that they spelled
"cowabunga" as "cowabonga" in some scrolling text
supporting the Simpsons Movie, which I still have to see. Honestly,
if these people were cool they would catch mistakes like this. Try turning
on a TV once in a while. Geez.
