Women drivers, huh? Looks like the PT Cruiser has come through the close call, none the worse for wear except a little overheating. So that black final panel yesterday was just a tease…and/or laziness…
Funky’s a lot calmer under the circumstances than I would be. “A little too close”? I’d be cussing my head off. I don’t know how he’s able to surmise that the “other car took off” and is not in a ditch on the other side of the road, judging from those skid marks.
Naturally, realizing a collision is imminent, the two drivers instinctively steer directly towards each other.
A couple weeks ago we saw TB trot out the classic “silhouette panel” to great effect. In today’s panel 3, though, he takes it a little too far! Could this be the end for Funky’s trademark PT Cruiser?
An emotionally drained Funky heads home after a trying day. Even with everything on his mind, though, his eyes are on the road and his hands are on the wheel at “ten and two”. But who’s coming the other way in that white Ford Fiesta? We’ve seen her before…and she still has not stopped laughing and telling her girlfriends about what she saw in front of Montoni’s last month: “Seriously, Ashleigh, I’m not kidding! Cory was walking around in front of the place wearing a pizza costume! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!”
From yesterthread: Something about panel 2 in Tuesday’s strip inspired me to pay homage to Norwegian painter Edvard Munch. Enjoy.
“Don’t want to talk while I’m driving! Talking while standing here in the street seems safe enough though!” Having faced down fleeting temptation, Funky phones home before hopping back in the mini-hearse and heading back to Westview.
Before he sips that nasty-looking cocktail, Funky’s better nature prevails, and a good thing, too. There was a time when I’d like to see our titular hero fall off the wagon, but any drunken shenanigans we’d be treated too would just lead to more misery.
The business in panel three with the bartender sucking down that abandoned Screwdriver (before the door even closes!) is actually pretty comical. Chalk up a point for TB.
