Y’all remember my sister Kelly from her previous appearances.\
It seemed like dunking my thumb into the cold liquid would relieve the burn much better than pressing my thumb on the outside of the bottle… so that’s what happened….

@MumaKirby on twitter told me I should dunk my other one in something green so I could be Christmas Thumbs. I’ll keep that in mind for next year.
I really wish I could share with you the look of childlike glee that took over Chris’s face when I pulled out the tube of Justin Bieber: the Wrapping Paper.
SPOILER FOR MY FAMILY MEMBERS: your gifts are coming swaddled in the tender, comforting embrace of J-Beebs, y’all.
This comic’s title references the far superior song by The Waitresses:
We saw Contagion on Thursday night. I went to the bathroom after the movie was over and had a brief panic, but luckily I recovered.
Our first date was three days later on the 8th, which is when we celebrate our anniversary. But the Askiversary (oh god I’m such a dork) is also something we keep in mind, too. ^_^
So yeah. We met at an anime club. Geek love, y’all.
While discussing the making of this comic:
Me: I was thinking it would be funny just to have you sitting on my shoulders and we’re both posing excitedly, even if it doesn’t make sense from a mechanical standpoint.
Chris: I could curl up into a head. I did have a Headmaster toy as a kid.
Me: Maybe you could posture your arms around my head like a helmet?
Chris: Well, I’d basically be engulfing your head with my whole body like a helmet.
Chris: Of course, in a modern egalitarian relationship, we’d take turns forming the head.
Alex: Of course.
Thanks to all who answered my calls for suggestions on this onomatopoeia for the transforming sound across varied social media platforms! I almost went with the SFX used in one of the Transformers comics (whrr tschzz tschzz tschzz chk) but then my friend Thorn submitted the above for consideration. Thorn has been previously seen in Alex’s Guide in the Unicode comic. ^_^
Honorable Mentions:
If it hadn’t been for you, my faithful friends and readers, I probably would have done something like “VERP VERP VERP VERP.”
Tomorrow, the 24 Hour Comic that started Alex’s Guide is turning three years old! Yay! ^_^ You can buy print copies of the 24 Hour Comic. Maybe someone you know would like a copy? Eh? Ehh?
MAN, this comic was a long time in coming. Chris and I had this conversation early on when we first started dating, and it’s been in the back of my brain as a comic idea for years. Finally, the Manliest of Man Soaps will be known by all.
This comic is being very fickle and didn’t want to post the first three times! Hopefully it will behave now.
We thought this up while at the wedding we attended a few weeks ago, but the structure of this strip was Chris’s idea. ^_^ If you have no idea what we’re referencing here, head on over to the Wikipedia article for 4’33″.
And congratulations to Talcott and Val!
I mostly wanted to get a picture of the 80′s Hair that Twilight has acquired.
My poor ponies have been shoved into a container in my Artist Alley boxes all summer, so I really need to restyle their hair. T_T
