Man, I only realized when I saw a comment over at GoComics that the dumb political arc meant we got no Pizza Box Monster this Halloween. Of course Batiuk would toss a precious young gag (young relatively speaking) on the pile to rot in order to get his prestige arc out by election day.
I’m not one to disrupt tradition though! So of course I got my traditional killer headcold of harvest that has me in such a befuddled brain fog that I can’t even begin to parse out the pen buying nonsense of this week. I almost thought that ‘Allen’ looked like he could be Batton’s son, and wondered if we’re finally getting another Brian insert finally, to replace Dead St Lisa.
While my head meat recovers from bad juju, I decided to slack off with another young tradition. The 1977 edition of EXISTENTIAL LEAVES.
I don’t even have thought juice left to make funny captions. Please, you in the comments, do my job for me!
That was a solid gag. This probably means that he regrets it.
