It’s
SHAMPOO WEEK
again, and I’m sure that by now I don’t have to tell you what that means.
Still gonna, though.
This is the one special week of the year when I post four comics having to do with the stuff you use in the shower so that your pillows don’t end up caked in germs and fungus.
Pretty gross when you think of it like that, right? Well, maybe Shampoo Week just gets gross when postponed due to the plague. I don’t know; this is new territory.
I’d also like to note that this, one of the most verbose—and least mountain-temporal—comics in recent memory was meant to be Tuesday’s episode, but it’s the only one that’s completely finished right now. Yes, this week I’m working like the boomerang with regards to killing efficacy: under the gun.
Sorry about your COVID! Happy Shampoo Week, even if it’s a more than a week this year. No harm in leaving my shampoo wreath on the door for a little longer.
As someone who used to play french horn back in high school, I always hated it when the strings broke.
Re: Last week’s update – Hey, if the Greek myths are anything to go by, your schedule will eventually grow up into an accomplished blacksmith.
Wishing you a quick recovery from the COVID. I never really considered mountain-temporality as a measurable metric before, and now I’m wondering what exactly influences it.
Well now I want a gun with a boomerang bayonet on it.
and I also want that cute ellyfant on a t-shirt. But a special t-shirt that moves the design around to get out of the way of your beard and/or necklaces.
As someone who doesn’t religiously follow Shampoo Week, the experience of reading through a Mountain Time comic and then seeing the word “shampoo” show up in the middle of it is very exciting.
Stephen: Thanks! The plague has passed, and I’m trying my best to make Shampoo Week be contained in a single week, but it’s nice to hear you’ll keep the wreath up. Was it dripping originally, or did you use the ol’ acetylene torch to caramelize the shampoo?
Xin: Once you get a new string, all the other horn strings sound dull, right?
Whee: By that Greek logic, my wife will be the embodiment of sex, but will fuck everyone but me. Hard pass.
The COVID is gone, thankfully! But its lingering effect is a week away from my desk, which puts Shampoo Week behind.
Mountain temporality is a complicated metric that can only be measured against itself, I reckon.
Cold: The boomerang bayonet might be the least terrifying advancement in weapons technology, so I’m all for it.
Circle: I just think there’s gonna come a point when a plot episode will have to mention shampoo, and I’ll be totally fucked.
I have always thought that it would be really cool to see a Shampoo Week take place during a plot run and just integrate into the plot seamlessly.
I’ve wanted to do that.
