Tiggum posted:It's one of those puns that only work written though, because "mobile" isn't pronounced the same way as the "mobile" part of "Batmobile". One is moh-bile and the other is muh-beel. I thought it was mo-beel; muh sounds like some kind of lazy accent.

"muh-beel?" Where the hell are you from you pronounce "mobile" in any way like "muh?" The difference between something like automobile and mobile the baby thing is where you put the stress--last syllable for the former and first syllable for the latter. They're both "oh." (I'm from Texas.)

I have a request for a comic I think I saw here, but I'm not sure. Its about two brothers, or maybe they are friends, who speak only in simpson's quotes. One of the brother/friends gets put into a coma, and is non responsive, but the other one finds out that he'll respond to simpson quotes still. Then it becomes very emotional as he pulls the plug. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Can someone post the "Fags and Muslims out of America" edit of the Ultimate warrior comic.

Another request: can someone find the comic where it shows a hit man sneaking up to a window, and then he puts a snake in that rushes at the sleeping victim, and then kisses him? The hit man's face in the last panel used to make me cry . It's hard to google for because there's no word bubbles, and people rudely uploaded many more images that can be found with "snake" "hitman" "kiss" that aren't it. Thanks in advance!

I know exactly which comic you're talking about, and I'm 90% sure that's either a Ryan Pequin or KC Green comic, but I can't find it at all. Here's one I found while looking instead:

Ahaha I used the forum search to see if I could find it mentioned in a previous find an image thread and welp! Rubies in 2011 posted:Hey folks, I'm looking for a webcomic that I might have asked for a few months ago. I can't find it again. It's just a few panels where a hitman in a trenchcoat slips a fearsome snake into someones window, and the snake lunges at the target. But instead of biting the snake kisses the mark on the cheek and he continues sleeping. The last panel is the hitman in the dark with big puppy-dog eyes making a forlorn "I miss you" face with the propped up hand at the sleeping man. It's really cute and touching and funny for such a short comic and I'd love to save it. Here you go! Hold on to it this time! e: Also content.

haha yessssss! I guess I really love that comic! I just lost a bunch of stuff in a hard drive crash but luckily as I get older I realize how unoriginal I've been and most of my "classics" still pop up all the time, but not this one until you reposted me. Also holy balls, I had a few seconds where I was like "have I really been on the forums since 2011? That seems like a long time" and it's actually been almost exactly NINE YEARS.

I have a request that I hope you fine goons can help me with. It's a pencil or otherwise black-and-white comic with Ness and Jeff from Earthbound. Four panels long, two by two. Ness asks Jeff how come he gets so many Smash hits, and Jeff tells him it's because he's got HUGE GUTS. I think there's a "Rip and tear!" line to seal the Doom comic homage, but I can't seem to get Google to find me the image. I'm pretty sure I found it through 4chan an age ago, and I no longer have it saved. Content:

The old thread was closed due to vocal dislikers vocally disliking all over the place. Plus if you piss off the OP he will just start posting dead babies until you repent, and none of us really want that.
