You'll Need to Put This Comic Together Yourself

Two things:

1.  Yes, I realize Ikea Man's cape should be blue like his mask.  I'm an idiot.

2.  It took me a while to figure out, but I think we can all agree that Verdana is the most mild-mannered of all the fonts.

Taking Note

I didn't have the heart to tell her:  it isn't.

Live Feed

In actual fact, when you download the weight-loss app in Stick Figure Land, it triggers a program that causes your 3-D printer to create a gum eraser.

Feel free to print this page and carry it with you, as these specimens can be difficult to spot in the wild.

It's Tajikistan, incidentally.

Yes, I'm sure you knew it.

You're very smart.

Eerily, the two figures have almost identical stories:

One was a thief who became a superhero.

The other was a dandy highwayman who became a goody two-shoes.

Spooky.

Hopefully This Will Be Okay...

Now that I see the phrase "little oat nubs" written down like that, it seems as though it would have been a better made-up name for a breakfast cereal than for a soap ingredient.

"WOW, Mom!  These are delicious - like sweet little flavor-packed nubs of oat!"
