Am I getting a bit too pedantic when I wonder why Satanists, who are certainly not pagans as they believe in God as well as Satan, would want to invite witches and advertise it as a pagan ceremony? [Yes, too pedantic. Shut up and enjoy the ride.]
Who says they’re not good comics? I suspect you’re the only one who thinks that. Leave them where we can return to them when we need them! And anyone who can deliver such jewels in the midst of illness deserves a laurel wreath.
Do what thou wilt. I mean, if Christians can have Christmas trees and an Easter Bunny, I don’t see why Satanists should be barred from embelliishing their holidays borrowing from their favorite pagan rituals in return.
Depends a lot on the specific brand of Satanism, which I’m not sure was ever totally clear in Steeple. The main US Satanists are pretty much just atheists. Theoretical Christian Satanists might be anti-pagan, but who knows? It seems like they still might cooperate to throw a mean non-Christian party.
Is this yet another situation in which John is making up euphemisms for genitals all… ah… willy-nilly?
I believe cartoonists have special licenses (depending on the jurisdiction) to make up names for genitals.
You and me both, Billie. You and me both.
“Toby, meet Snoopy. Snoopy, this is Toby.”
Given Billie’s response, maybe not…
And I thought “Manscaping” was a term I would never use.
Toby or not toby, that is the question.
Plot twist: “Toby” is Brian’s pet name for his beard.
…or his pet goat?
His pet goat’s beard?
His goat’s pet beard (his beard)
His beard’s pet goat. A beard like that needs statelier livestock than lice.
GO BILLIE! Dunno what she wants to do, but this looks to me like she’s trying to follow Marjorie’s advice, in some really charming and hot ways.
I understand the reference to the X-treme bike ramp / Wendy house / boat, but I don’t know why it needs to be trimmed…
Mr. A, that sounds like a THREAT!
Question; is Hexxennacht in any way related to Walpurgisnacht? Or to the Swedish silent film Haxan?
Hexennacht is literally another word for Walpurgisnacht. The exXxtra x is just for effect I think.
How could tomorrow be worse? Assuming John does not subject us to the actual trimming of the Toby. That might be worse.
I’m just trying to trace the convoluted path from pagen celebration to moderating Brian’s diet. There seems to be a few missing pieces at this point.
Some witches are being invited. Maybe they’re going to cast a spell on Brian?

These aren’t good comics Ally, they were delivered at high speed in the midst of illness. I don’t think they’ll be staying up long.
Don’t take them down. Everything you make is great.
This.
I hope you don’t take them down too soon. I want to reread them on my desktop when I get back home next week.
Every frame with Billie is a charm.

There’s no reason that Satanists need ONLY to believe in god with a capital G. The crucial issue is whether they believe in Satan.
Makes as much sense as Christmas.
Nah, you’re thinking of Santanists there.
if you gotta ask the answer is always Yes

Tch. Satanists are too fancy for ecumenicalism?

Toby is actually just Brian’s (so far unseen) dog, right? RIGHT!?
No :C
Nevertheless I reckon its bark to be worse than its bite.
Does Brian have cockney roots? Toby jug – mug? As in fizzog? As in face? I can’t imagine what else he’d be talking about.
oh, I can imagine…
