Across the Funkiverse

1. Oh?
   I guess I never realized that was a store that sold comic books…you know the one upstairs from our business… in a building we own.
   What’s that you say?
   John as a StarBucks Jones #1 issue?….has only had it a couple of years now?
   I wonder what Rocky would like for Christmas that she can’t get there in Afgetthefuckoutofstan…Maybe a visit from Cindy Summers. I hear she is still embedded.

   Oh Dan….I’ll take Missouri over Auburn.
   Pulling for Duke but that ain’t going to happen.

2. Actually, Harry, pardon my immodesty but I pointed out in this very place last August that the natives are not friendly. At all. They’re cold and aloof and will probably only give you the time of day because your husband could have the owner thrown out if he so wished. Perhaps if you were to disguise yourself as a teenage boy, then John would be all over you….

   Actually, I think if Holly really wants to collect these comics to feel closer to Cory, she should get them the way Cory would–by stealing them.

3. “Maybe I should check eBay, or somewhere else on–”
   “AAAAAAGH! Computers! Burn the witch!!!”

4. Yes Harry, perhaps the comic book store LOCATED DIRECTLY ABOVE MONTONI’S would be a fine place to look for an old comic book. But don’t bother getting up and helping out your best friend’s wife, she’ll manage just fine on her own. What a bunch of dimwits.

5. Yeah, John bought my comic book collection, then hired me to sell it to other people. Seems like a fair transaction.

6. Harry sacrificed greatly, having given away 100% of his Starbucks Jones collection, which is a greater percentage than the 2/3 of his children who went missing.

7. Is it just me, or has Backache been extra-grim with his comics lately? Last week’s Funky Winkerbean + Crankshaft got ‘Most Depressing’; this one has only been going on for a week and it already seems like a strong contender to take down the previous champion.

8. @TFH “You’d think Harry might know whether or not Komix Korner has sold his Starbuck Jones comic, given that Harry now works there.”

   Ha ha, good one, TF! But seriously, I imagine Harry’s Komix Korner workday is pretty much the same as when he worked at the post office–sit in Montoni’s all day, drinking coffee, and complain about workload.

9. “Harry sacrificed greatly, having given away 100% of his Starbucks Jones collection, which is a greater percentage than the 2/3 of his children who went missing.”

   Which conveniently ignores the fact, that had Harry actually been on a RIF list for the Post Office, he would have had bumping rights to keep his job. In addition, had he actually been RIF’d, he would have gotten severance pay, been eligible for unemployment, and could have recovered his retirement contributions and any contributions to the thrift savings plan (were he wise enough to contribute).

   But will she run into the ghost of Crankshaft future as she heads for the stairway to KK???

10. This is bush-league shit here, man. It’s laughably sappy and inept. Across town, Crankshaft is trippin’ balls!

11. @Sarge, don’t forget Crankshaft tripped those balls a decade ago, because Crankshaft is in the past, man!

12. whoa.

13. “@Sarge, don’t forget Crankshaft tripped those balls a decade ago, because Crankshaft is in the past, man!”

    Yes, recall a few months ago when a much older Jff came to talk to the group, I think during the Frankie debacle, and mentioned he was visiting Pm’s father in the nursing home…………..

14. Holly, like all of Westview, is just so lame. Where else but in the Funkiverse would having to go up the stairs of a building you own and ask your long-term tenant a question be presented as some sort of epic challenge?
    (Harry’s work ethic, as already noted, shines as another example of the local brand of sheer, snarky inertia. Why get off your butt when you can sit around and smirk?)

15. Hey, Pookster, the important thing is, I came out all right financially, and in college football, that’s what counts!
