Suggested wine pairing: Paul Mitchell Original Owapuhi Shampoo.
It’s
SHAMPOO WEEK
again, and you know what that means: Four comics this week, each dealing with that special viscous liquid we put on our heads, pets, and carpet. So lather up! (Or don’t! Overwashing is inconducive to a healthy scalp.) It’s time for a sprightly semana of sebum-smashing stimulation!
ALSO!!!
Mountain Time now has a Patreon! Patrons get to submit words into a “potluck comic” (working title) that gets written at the end of the month. Check out the Patreon for more details about this exciting Patreon event on Patreon!
My first Shampoo Week as a commenter! I’m excited. I have very long, thick hair that gets greasy quickly, so Shampoo Week holds special meaning for me. On the other hand, as a snake, I do not understand this holiweek and ask for it to be replaced with Scale Polish Week.
No joke, I made up a song about a hairy snake in the car last week.
I was all set to point out how the patch of grass underneath Chutney in the third panel looked like words, and maybe make a cutesy guess at what the phrase might be. The more I looked at it, the stronger the impression got that it was text, so I zoomed in, and noticed the second blob of lines seemed to be “weevil”. It finally dawned on me that it’s the phrase “Boll Weevil of Shame” from the previous panel, in keeping with the gag of the words being tangible objects surrounding the character. A gag I’d understood and appreciated not ten seconds beforehand.
I’m not smart enough for your comics.
To be fair, objective permanence isn’t a given in New Lancaster.
