    Who is the target demo? Kara? Brenna? That guy in the Pac-Man outfit?

    This would have made a terrific Randy comic.

    Someone mentioned the "G&T talk to each other during a strange situation" style comics a few days ago with Gabbie n' Tyche. This is one of my fav examples so far. :P

    The best is still discussing Civ V victory conditions while in prison.

    Oh brilliant

    I think that was me.

    The idea of having a feature on a otherwise-respectable consumer product called the "delighter" makes me giggle in much the same way I did when I found out that Rolls Royce cars have something called the "Spirt of Ecstasy Rotary Controller."

    A "delighter"? Why not just call it a "heavier"?

    Because then it wouldn't qualify for Amazon Prime shipping.

    So what I'm getting out of Tycho's most recent post is that Amazon has an incredibly convoluted reverse-psychology-style scheme in the works.

    Sure, the "Delighter" itself delights not, but talking about how the Delighter delights not is, itself, delightful. But had the Delighter never existed (or had actually somehow been inherently delightful), endless hours would have never been filled with delightful dialogue about the the delightless Delighter.

    In the end, it seems the Delighter has actually brought more delight into people's lives than anyone expected. Score one for Amazon. Again.

    I'm not a nice guy, I just play one in real life.

    I'm glad Tycho spoke that final line. With the arrangement of that bike I feel that needs to be explicitly affirmed.

    I don't know what I did to deserve so many comics in one week basically designed for me, but I'm so glad I did it.

    Sometimes he appears to be a target demo, especially in the strip where they hustle with a two-ended dildo.

    This is how I picture Winston and Julia ridin' around in the "Golden Country". The lighting particularly is quite close to what my mind pictured when reading the book.
