In reply to Pete Bleackley (petethemadscientist).

Does having sex with a clone of yourself count as masturbation?

Dirty minds want to know…

In reply to Ed Gedeon (eddurd). What? Of COURSE there's deep meaning behind 42! Don't you know that it's the Answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything?

Tiff, did you know that Piers Anthony used definition #2 of "catastrophe" in one of the Xanth novels? Except in that case, it was mounted on a wooden plaque and hung on the wall.

Panel #3, "She wouldn't do it for FREE?" Best. Line. Ever.

You're far from the first person I've heard who loves having a bunch of differently dysfunctional characters interacting. It really is quite fun, isn't it?

I think I've actually been in a couple of these conversations, but I'm not sure, due to being rather out of touch with reality in many ways myself.

I noticed the resemblance to Bill, as well. But he can’t look like a “Bill” because then he’d fail the “Spot The Dave” test, so maybe his dad was a “Bill”. Or his mom.

Dave there kind of reminds me of Dave’s brother.

We Daves are thrifty when it comes to contracting killers.

Catastrophe, n, 1. The second half of a cat bracketed by single quote marks. (The first half is commonly known as an aposcathead.) 2. A usually humorous award consisting of a posterior of a housecat mounted on a marble base.

Saturday:

Why! What a horrid revelation! And if both Helens would just close their yaps, we might all find out the reason for the Daves' desperate assassination - a reason which even our cartoonist probably wasn't privy to at the time.

EtymOnline informs me that the word "Catastrophe" is derived from the Greek katastrephein, "to turn upside-down." Catastrophes: 1. (Not to be confused, of course, with something literally turning Helen upside-down. I have a separate counter for that.)

The total worth of Dave Davenport's life: $5.00. Poor poor Dave. That alone could be enough to send him off his conk right here.

The tomacco episode is the one which made me realize that the Simpsons was no longer worth watching.
