I see a security camera on a poll in the background. The girls can't just poit out and hope no one sees, it's already too late

so wait, let me get this straight, you like big butts and you cannot lie?

Curses!! Beaten to the Mix-A-Lot reference by a country mile.

Good point. Makes me wonder if her demons see an opportunity and are taking it. Especially with the dark eyes thing.

(I wonder if they're ever going to follow up on that and make sure there wasn't anything else in that tree beyond the Artifact?) M hasn't been to Hell or in the heart of the Sun - yet - so she couldn't send them there. She had, however, been to that mall.

That is the usual way of things, but I was wondering about what Shelly said; "... and her ability to poit anything anywhere." Does that mean just what it says? Does she have the ability to poit anything anywhere, even if she has not been there before?

I always thought the limitation was aim, not distance -- those with the ability could easily poit about the right distance to Ireland and splash into the ocean a few hundred miles offshore, or visit there ahead of time and be able to hit the target more exactly. Poiting something 30% of the way through the sun would be nearly as effective as the center (50% point), so for all practical purposes M would be able to do a sun poit.

Yes, and our friendly neighborhood Officer Tight Buns knows both of them! Justin would probably be happier not having that conversation with them, particularly if they're still together and naked. Awkward, you know.

Actually, not as much as you think.

There is more that it looks like. I have it all in one form or another. 9 complete story arcs and various points east and west.

Someone mention streaking?

Bwahahaaaa! Had a semi-busy day yesterday, and forgot to check the dailies thread. I'm glad someone did this one, because it's about perfect!

Not at all Opus, not at all...EDIT: darn! waldosan beat me to it...

Oops...

I thought that was odd, but never actually noticed, until now... It's even there, in nice red letters, in the banner at the top of the page, but I never saw it!

I'm not supposed to be dyslexic... that's my wife's gig, not mine... but I do make mistakes pf that sort, at times... only small ones, but once in a while I catch myself doing it... I guess I didn't catch it on time, this time around, and my embarrassment is now displayed for all the world to see...

Thanks for setting me right, by the way...

Next, Monica will realize what happened, and think, "That wasn't me."

Next step from there is to go to Tina and ask her what it was like to have Nudge.

Agreed! I thought Shelly was supposed to have the hottest bootie, but that was before Bud showed up.

No idea why Bud hasn't realized it, but then she's so insecure. Still Brandi might have mentioned it to her lol

Brandi told her to shut up (more or less) about her caboose at the same time she pointed out the "racehorse legs", and then reinforced it with a remark about balancing a beer bottle on it.

By the way, in case you're wondering - they're standing right outside of Saks Fifth Avenue's outlet store (which is the direction Shelly is looking), and apparently looking southwest at the IDS Center (the tall building on the left) and Macy's (on the right). The camera is perched on the corner of the building housing Brooks Brothers.

The Google Maps view is here.

Oh, I see. This mall is actually a street of shops. So they were poited onto a public street. So much the better.

Yes, I see, going to Streetview. But I think they would be standing on the street near Marshals to get that particular view. Next to Saks, we would see more of the left side of the Macy building. Thanks for the link.

That does seem to be another definition of "mall." Here in Winnipeg, we have Graham Mall; when I was very young, it endlessly confused me how a mall could have all its stores outside.

It's been prvoen that you can sitll mkae snese of mxied-up wrods as lnog as the fsrit and lsat ltteres are in the rghit pacle. Obviously your brain was doing something similar with "Pibgorn" and automatically "proofreading" it into something that looked more lexicographically lgocial.

That may be so, but I'm still embarrassed about it...

I read Comics Curmudgeon, and I can say, "PIGBORN" is a common spoonerism, malapropism, and general mixspelling of Pibgorn.

Not infrequently intentional, at that.

"Bigporn" is another.

There is more that it looks like. I have it all in one form or another. 9 complete story arcs and various points east and west.

2433 strips/pages, by my count - not counting the 214 reprints-with-commentary of the Mozart story.

And Pibgorn tends to be pretty text-heavy and downright dense, with a fair proportion textual and peripheral references...

The arc beginning 21 January 2010, is based around such a reference in a rather ... odd ... way.

(Knowing what "Rosebud" was won't help at all ... but it's sorta slightly peripherally relevant...)

Heh. As the founder of the ComfyCouchofConfusionv2.0 (Which is basically an offshoot of the former comments page at Pibgorn) says in his .sig:

"Dew knot trussed spill chick two ketch awl miss steaks."
