The Boys Eighteen: A Study in Good Taste

And coming from me, that's about as ironic as Alanis Morissette getting hit by a truck delivering grammatical textbooks while crossing under a WALK sign.

OK, that was quite the stretch for a simile. But it made me laugh. Carrying on...

I really should apologize for this one beforehand, but really, anything that begins initially building from the rock solid foundation that is Garth Ennis' The Boys can only lead thusly. You should kinda know that going into it.

The Boys ---> Cherry Poptart. Really not that difficult of a connection in hindsight. I fully expect a Cherry guest appearance in a future issue.

PS: Garth, Mate? Enough with the hamster. Really.

Gah! Pass the bleach!

I've actually had this conversation. Well, close to it anyway.

Later That Day...


This isn't my original joke - it has roots solidly in one of the funniest threads ever hosted at Fark.com. I remember howling with laughter for several hours at the time as the posts unfolded and more and more jokes tried to outdo everyone else's. Sadly, that thread was a long time ago (in internet terms) so most of the hilarious photoshops have since exceeded their image hosting time/space limits.

I immediately thought of this when cruising for strange images to muck with - and I'm not certain, but I think I lifted this one from Sleestak somewhere in his archives. Just to give credit in case it's due. Plus, given his well-documented cat-love, I figured he'd appreciate another reason to question the toleration of their existence.

I like cats, really.

But Cats + lipstick = Good Comedy.
