Oh that is the surrealism I like. Just pile that in a bowl and put magic shell on it, mm.
Okay uh, the owl is in panel 27, and Billy is the name of the steambound kangaroo wizard’s chiropractor! Also the rat on the right is secretly an egg masquerading as a rat. am I right? I bet.
I’m just as sure that Piccolo Slim namedropped the title of this comic at one point as I am that I’d never be able to find where they said it. I’d tell you where I found Billy, but I was specifically instructed in the last panel to post no bills.
ColdFusion: trippy surrealist sequences like this are definitely a chef specialty.
Boxing and fencing share a weird feature in being contact sports inexplicably named after the act of enclosing something. Anyway, I couldn’t find the owl nor the Billy, but I did manage to track down a bowl and an Illy in my kitchen.
Whee: that would be mountaincomics.com/comic/mt656. Although Piccolo Slim does appear to have a bill…
Cold: I call that “steambound kangaroo wizard” the Ol’ SwitcheRoo. But man, the back of that rat COULD be an egg in disguise. I love a good mystery.
Whee: The way no one ever talked about Piccolo Slim, I thought maybe only I could see him. Yet, NAR got the link right, so I’ve been proven wrong twice today.
NAR: Whoa, they ARE both named for enclosing things. Probably because they’re both violent sports, and violence traps man in with his baser instincts, unable to yada yada…
Piccolo does have a bill, for he is clearly half duck and half… stick of gum?
Huh, the website’s icon in the tab isn’t showing up anymore (it’s the default grey globe instead of an onion). Is that a site issue or is it just me?
As for this strip: I think I’ve figured out the trick. “Can you find an owl and a Billy?” doesn’t specify that you need to find them *in the strip*. Just go outside and find an owl and a guy named Billy and you’re set!
Using Firefox, sometimes it gets weird on me and shows a little onion (the ooold favicon) instead of the onion mask (which it’s supposed to be), but it’s never gone full default-globe on me. What browser do you use?
I saw an owl across the street a couple years ago, but I have no way of knowing if and when Billys cross my path. This just gets harder and harder.
I’m using Google Chrome.
See, you just have to name the owl Billy and then you’re good to go!
