It’s pages like these that I wish the comments had imported better on Sundays. Several Sundays were multiple pages, with multiple sets of comments, on WCN, but here we only get comments from the last page of each Sunday. (Which is to say, in this specific case, that I want the rest of Ed’s song.)

At some point I named each room in my parents' house growing up with the name of a continent. All I remember now is that the constantly-too-hot front living room was Africa and the finished basement was Australia.

Apparently, among some of my older colleagues, “Alphonse” used to be a slang term form an impedence-matching adapter. Apparently it came from a joke whose punchline was “Lucky old Alphonse, in the middle again!” Fortunately, I don’t know the rest of it.

Shaenon tossed a little pamphlet with the first Skin Horse story Arc in when my Brother got me Narbonic Vol.I for my Birthday. My reaction was pretty much “Hey, it’s like a Chick Tract for awesome Webcomics!”, and so I left it in the breakroom at work.

Uh…I think he’s knocking Windows. (Not that they don’t deserve it. It’s why *I’m* a Mac person…)

What's an Alphonse?

And Tiff, don't knock Macs.

Jeepers! Self-esteem books like that are nearly as creepy as Chick tracts. Hey – maybe that would be a good art project – a Chick Tract parody where the family saves the wayard son from Windows machines and helps him embrace Macs.

I'm gonna clean the Alphonse
With Swiffer tidily!
I now will end this nonsense,
And that's why you like me!
