    After that Friday, they really fear waking SAL more?

      She’s more likely to murder them since if she can disappear for days on end, it’ll be easier for her to know a good spot to hide the body.

      Hmm, wonder if we’re ever going to see where Sal goes?

          My roommate and I were watching DBZ on a TV which faced away from the door which we habitually kept open. We were watching a scene with lots of grunting and powering up, and our friend from New Jersey stopped by the door with this look on his face. His words?

          “Are you guys watching gay porn?”

                  I mean it has cake in the name, but what if its baked in a pie styled crust? It’s still called cheesecake.

            We already have enough problems as it is, trying to explain to people when we mention it that 1)it’s not a knock off line of Transformers 2) ran for nearly a decade in over 9 different shows and 3)had some of the more inventive molds ever.

            Joe would set us back. Trust me.

Andor thoughts My friend also suggested they could be vapes and I wish I'd thought of that
A comic of two people (myself and my partner) watching Star Wars Andor on TV.
Me: What are those things in their front pockets? (Referring to Deirdre's imperial uniform with metal cylinders poking out of the front pockets.)
Partner: That is THE question.
Me: Maybe they're like... pens, for writing their fascy memos at double efficiency! (Deirdre frantically scribbles notes on a sheet of paper with a pen in both hands.)
Partner: No, no, no...
(A panel of Lio Partagaz unclipping the metal things and lifting them out of his pockets. In the next panel, his pants fall to the floor with a FWUMP.) 
Partner: ...it's the only way they can take their pants off.
