I think we just went beyond "insider trading"... :shock:

Not a frigging clue here. Nope -- nada, zip, squat, zilch, zero.

Off to try the muffins in Confusion Corner. Maybe some bagels with cream cheese as well.

Well, that defuses the current symptoms, but it doesn't cancel out the larger context.

Since a lot of what Jet said seemed to be spot on the money, both of them have a lot of introspection they need to do.

NAILED IT!

Two demons tried to get a little TOO close to each other.

(Dangit, LW, you beat me.)

I'm guessing this might be the first proof for the "demon of alcohol" that has been touted so much by the temperance movements, a while back...

Well, that's easy for you to say, Bud! Now, where the dickens is my Universal Translator, and did I remember to charge the batteries?

I'd say it's pretty clear that both Monica and Georgette "had the vapors", but just what those vapors are, I really don't have a solid clue. Georgette's resembles the mask-face that Guidance and Anger and the devil-dog seemed to wear, so I guess it must be one of her demons... but I can't recall our ever seeing that particular Monica's Friend before.

Was that gibberish that came out of Bud's mouth a transliteration of Glyph-speak?

Alcohol demons? I thought they were spirits.

Ah, so it's a couple of the demons who wanted to get together. Why could the vaunted Jaguar Girl not see this was the case right away? She has poiting ability and is supposed to be very attuned to the demon world now. And why could Bud not have done the same thing? What special power does Jin have she doesn't? I suppose this is a variation of Phix knocking Nudge out of Tina? But then, Nudge wasn't a demon in the first place, so who knows. Anyway, time for Tina to knock heads again it would seem.

This could be bad for the demons involved as well since this (assuming it is insider [bodily fluids] trading) is against the rules and might be punishable by becoming sphinx snacks.

Quite. Thanks to sudden poiting, they've now been distilled. And perhaps, with Tina intervening, they'll end up bestilled.

And, yes, Rocky, they're friendly spirits. Too friendly by half, it seems.

Makes sense it wouldn't work... it's backwards of what actually happened. A textual rotation like that would be a Caeser cipher, and this is clearly a Let-go-of-'er cipher... or decryption, if you prefer.

Frame three was not what I expected to see today. I didn't know any of the Golem Girls had the fine control to selectively poit others like that; we've only seen Tepoz do that in the past, and he's known to be an alcohol expert.

Nice info-dump from Bud, too. :D

Talk about your FREAKY FRIDAY.
Did Monica and Georgette just switch bodies? Life-Entity Transfer is what I think Spock called it. Does that mean 'Jet is now the Immortal one and Monica can live out and Die a normal life, in a tall,skinny body with hardly any boobage? or has something else occured?? I can NOT wait for Monday.

Let's see...

That doesn't quite look like Vanity (from April of 2007), nor does it look like Lust (same time frame). Looking back at the other times we've seen Mon's "Demon Menagerie", that one doesn't quite look like anything we've seen...

I'd almost bet these are new demons: Self-Worth (M) and Neediness (G).

Ninja'd, sorta... I was just preparing to comment that Bud's statement was not a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious single word.

You know, I find that Tepoz is so much neater, when it comes to dealcoholizing people... :P
