RIver Tam can kill you with her mind. Nudge could kill you with her neck.
I think necking with Nudge could lead to injuries, up to and including a lethality. But I lead a dangerous life...

TVTropes might have a topic on that....

Speaking of necks - talk about mood whiplash.

If Tina is offering a menu I wonder if submarine sandwhichs are on it?
<clink>
I'll bet she serves a drink called the Torpedo. One sip and you're sunk.
<clink>
Really, really bad pick up line there. 'Hey Baby. Want to check out my periscope?'
<clunk as he hits the floor>
Sign behind the bar. 'No Stinkies Allowed.'
<clank>
Menu Brag. Home of the ten foor calamari ring.
Ambush questions are fun. Watching the mental impact of them as they distort, or crumble, opinions based on faulty logic.

Oh, yeah, order the calamari turn on your stool and see Stinky there giving you the look that needs no words... :shock:

Yes, Stinky's odor would be a detriment to business, but he would make one heckova bouncer.

I really like this! I like the explody Sub reference too! Do you think Euyrale is taking the picture? This is just a really nice down time for the bunch. I hope it is cannon, just because it is so nice. This was an auspicious beginning to a new week with a wonderful comic like this.

Hmmmm. I'd think that girding your loins before a bout of necking in itself could be living dangerously--or at least painfully. :lol:

I'd like to introduce you Istvan Kodaly, the eleven-foot Hungarian.

He ain't touchin' that one, either.

If they serve Shirley Temples, or the Pac-Man mocktail, then I'm firing up my Trans-Dimensional Portal to stick my toes in the sand, and volunteer to be the photographer.

Enunciate carefully to your squires when doing this. You want to make sure they know you're girding your loins, not griddling....

If ever in Chicago and want to see a real U-boat, check out the museum of science and technology. They have U-505 on display. Quite impressive and one has to admire those guys for being able to stand staying submerged for hours on end in a skinny steel tube and not completely loose it. Messed up ideology but big on intestinal fortitude. Tickets are required for the tour and be sure to order in advance as it is popular. I doubt any v-cells are still on board, the MiB were probably part of the boarding party that captured it!

If it's still in one piece, we know Bud wasn't involved...

I like to think it's cannon, too. I could see Shelly cutting her hair again after finding out the truth about her mother. It's good to see them all relaxed and happy.

They probably keep that kind of stuff locked up in the back, VIPs only.

Given Monica and Jin's previous island experiences maybe U235 wouldn't be inappropriate.

Well that's not a good idea. Can't be very secure if James Woods escaped twice.
