Do you think the mouse would have actually floated there? Or would it go all red mouse spray into Philippe's face? The next plot point involves Todd trying the fan trick.

Having accidentally watched The Backyardigans, 'poop group hooligans' is an amazing name for them.

Beef is probably an old hand at this, most likely having done it for entertainment when he was still in Circumstances.

New strip! Interesting...a new update format. Seems like we're getting half the strip but in half the time. Could be good for more regular updates I suppose.

I think this is a great idea, as i'm one of those people who always preferred the shorter strips to the longer ones.

I like this idea, but I wonder if Onstad is doing this because of popular demand or because this is where his muse led him?

Are items for incontinence really found in the same aisle as condoms? Maybe I just haven't been paying attention when I buy them, but it seems like a strange juxtaposition to me. Gotta get some later, so I'll report back.

I posit an inverse relationship between embarrassment and condom size. Recall, if you will, the condoms Beef discovered at Molly's back in the day - dude may still have a bit of a ding dong size complex, even though he shouldn't.

Yes, but announcing "I am about to have sex!" to a cashier while wearing a ski mask in a supermarket at night may raise more concerns than it quells.

Especially if you are already wearing one when you scream it. Merchandising idea for Mr. Onstad... Achewood Condoms: For when you game pipe is rad and walkin'

This is such a common problem in fiction and real life, that if I were writing a story and came to a point where I had to address it I would be very hard pressed to come up with a way to do it that wouldn't be terribly cliche and boring and/or groan inducing. It's such an obvious solution in hindsight to have the embarrassment of buying condoms be the problem, but have the funny thing be something else altogether, while keeping it related to the situation. Onstad and other accomplished writers probably don't have to worry too much about it cause they're spinning old situations in new ways all the time.
