    In fact, I think Tycho meant to link to that comic in the newspost but somehow grabbed Friday's instead.

    Jerry always means to link to the current comic, but the link doesn't usually update, so it runs to the one before.

    Also, at a glance, those two comics may appear similar, but one is about the vidyagems, while the other isn't.

    Crucial difference.

    Where's my gold star for picking this out?

    Where?

    Oh yeah. Didn't even notice there wasn't a link to the current one elsewhere in the post. I just figured it was one of those where he linked to previous comics in the same vein before delivering the new one.

    I know, I love how Gabe gets a rare opportunity to mess with Tycho psychologically. Also Tycho worriedly measuring his nose gets me every time.

    Mike's news-post cracked me up. My girlfriend was finally able to get off Lexipro a couple months ago (she worked really hard at battling her anxieties and it was a long process). Finally she can have orgasms without it taking two hours. It's more like 20 minutes now. Sex is no longer a marathon for me, and I am pretty happy about it haha.

    I can only hope there's eventually a fourth panel for this one

    one thing I sort of hope they might do

    is during the offseason of PATV, bring back the podcasts

    4th panel is great and very funny, but I really enjoyed the longer form of the podcasts, seeing every weird little tangent they went on before landing on the actual comic, or seeing them go over and over on the same idea to figure out what the best way to formulate the joke would be. It was just interesting and funny in a way that an 8 minute video can't be, even if I like the 8 minute video.

    I miss the podcasts too.

    Every time a fourth panel comes out, I watch and love it. I am not ungreatful for what we have, especially since they can be visually expressive and funny in a way that the podcasts couldn't.

    But nothing is going to beat listening to hours of pure, unfiltered Mike & Jerry banter. They used to make commutes not only bareable, but enjoyable. I still sometimes listen to them on train journies very occasionally but it's not really the same now that I have heard them all before, and they're beginning to age, what with discussions about the new name of the Nintendo Revolution.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I would pay a subscription to have PA Podcasts back.

    In remote parts of Asia, if you're fat, you're cooked for the whole village to enjoy, because you've had more than your share. It's true, I read about it on Wikipedia a while ago. It's no longer there, but it was. They only allow the REAL TRUTH to be on Wiki for a short period time, lest everyone be made aware of... everything. It's called Truth-Cycling.

    It's called truth padding. And it's illegal.

    I used to feel exactly the same way. I was something like 9% body fat with almost no muscle and no physical activity (which many would say is lucky).

    My antidepressants didn't help me gain any weight at all, but I joined a gym last summer and have since gained about 15 lbs.
