COME ON, THEY WANT TO CELEBRATE ME GETTING TENURE. I KNOW, I KNOW, BIG DEAL. BUT WE SHOULD HUMOR THEM.
YOU'RE A PIECE OF WORK. TENURE HAS BEEN THE SOLE FOCUS OF YOUR EXISTENCE SINCE I MET YOU. AND, NOW THAT YOU'VE GOT IT, YOU ACT LIKE IT'S A LIFE SENTENCE.
yew'll
be sorry that
yew

I'M TIRED OF LISTENING TO AMERICANS WHINE ABOUT THEIR PORTFOLIOS WHEN A BILLION PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD LIVE IN REAL POVERTY! I'M GLAD THE STOCK MARKET'S DOWN.
WELL, CONSIDERING IT'S TAKING BUSH'S APPROVAL RATINGS DOWN WITH IT, SO AM I. HERE'S TO THE DEMOCRATS NOT BLOWING THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS.
CLARICE, YOU'RE SO NAIVE. A "PRE-EMPTIVE DEFENSIVE INTERVENTION" IN IRAQ IN THE NEXT MONTH OR SO, AND THE REPUBLICANS ARE IN LIKE FLYNN. THEN THEY CAN FOCUS ON DISEMBOWELING THE CONSTITUTION AND SETTING UP A MILITARY POLICE STATE HERE IN THE #%@ING FATHERLAND. OH, EXCUSE ME, I MEANT THE #%*ING HOMELAND.
ARE THESE
GENETICALLY MODIFIED?
A BIT LATER...
GOD, AMERICANS ARE A REPUGNANT PEOPLE.
THAT WAS A GREAT SPEECH ON HOW VIOLENT VIDEO GAMES ARE A PENTAGON PLOT TO DESENSITIZE A NEW GENERATION OF BABY KILLERS. I ESPECIALLY LIKED THE PART WHEWRE YOU GRABBED RAFFI'S GAMEBOY AND MADE HIM CRY.
HE WAS PLAYING FROGGER, FOR CRISSAKES.
I TOLD YOU I WAS EXHAUSTED. GOD, I'M SO SLEEPDEPRIVED I CAN HARDLY SEE STRAIGHT.
OH, PLEASE. SO YOU'LL HAVE TO BUY CONVENTIONAL INSTEAD OF ORGANIC OLIVE OIL WHEN YOU'RE 70.
UH...THE BEDROOM'S THAT WAY.
YEAH, I JUST WANT TO CHECK MY

The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of ETHAN GREEN
Local Color
Hey Queelix,
This coffee smells kinda weird... Fishy...
Naturally. It's mostly water.
Yeah? So?
So What?
All of our water comes from the canals---which are teeming with aquatic life.
Aquatic life? in the Frappuccino? BUHLECHHH
Can't you, I dunno, filter it or something? I mean, that's what we do on earth.
100
Oh Really? We've been under impression that Y'all do nothing but dump carcinogens and old tires in your bodies, of water...
Anyway,
Canal fish are loaded with protein.
Thats why Martian water is so healthful.
That cup of coffee is Yeh, ok, but Good for you!
it's still pretty stinky...
Listen: I've been Thinking. Ordinarily the the way-you space-time travel to get here is by fantasizing about a hot Martian, right? Namely, me.
OK, but you don't think the process works in reverse--you don't think you can travel back to earth by fantasizing about
guy there?
Right, a hot, conceited,
Martian.
RIGHT. I'm from
there. So that's
not fantasy, it's
REALITY.
Ha! That's the flaw in your logic.
Okse, You gonna tell me, or just sit there looking smuge
Brad Pitt, Oscar Delahova, your favorite porn stars, ALL EARTHLINGS! And still you Fantasize about them all the time
I think you're stuck here because
(a) You're scared of falling in love with this new suy
***whavja say his name wasz Porter?, and
(b) You don't want to screw up whatever patential you might have for a successful relationship with him by thinking horney thoughts about some other døde.
Consequently, there you sit.
