spinky is one and the same.

Dru has missed before in this arc. When she shot at Lena as evil queen.

What gives?
Margueritem said, about 1 year ago

Dru has been drained, not what I wanted to see tonight.
fear-ciuil said, about 1 year ago

Frida, I don’t think this was a miss–it was a misfire.

Fearciuil,

You are right but it is still unsettling.
Frida Bonita said, about 1 year ago

Should Dru stick her finger in the light socket?
desertdwlr said, about 1 year ago

“F” as in Fudge ???
AliKzam said, about 1 year ago

She’s on the wrong side of Spitcock to get to the lamp with her mojo.
It’s like Mario fighting King Koopa to get to the Princess!
I can’t bear to (wait to) see what happens, tomorrow.
ejcapulet said, about 1 year ago

…fizzle?
txmystic said, about 1 year ago

…FERCOCKT!
ejcapulet said, about 1 year ago

That’s one clever succubus! Just punch the b!!!
txmystic said, about 1 year ago

While I find it difficult to accept the idea that Dru can be drained, she did sort of bring this about through her exuberent coupling.

TO THE LAMP, DRU!
Trail_Blazer said, about 1 year ago

Frack!!
ejcapulet said, about 1 year ago

Or how about Roger smashes the lamp while Spitcock is distracted? That might work.
Heavenly said, about 1 year ago
I’m sure we are setting up for Roger to be the hero, once again.
- But, I’ve been so very wrong before.
  ;D
- Night all.
jimbo1949 said, about 1 year ago

C’mon Roger, bust the lamp and set her mojo free.
It don’t mean a thing if you ain’t got that swing.
ejcapulet said, about 1 year ago

I wonder if we’re going to get a reason WHY spitcock even started this game to begin with - don’t tell me it’s a complicated cure for ED.
paciii said, about 1 year ago

Bet Spitcock knew and that’s why he let her out… dead battery… probably turn out that he wasn’t fooled by her attempted deception.

Oh… I feel the cliff-hanger to raise more questions coming tomorrow…
txmystic said, about 1 year ago

Trail_Blazer, where you been? And Where’s Cartman? And didja notice aerwalt brought towelie into the discussion, yuk yuk yuk?
Adrienne Gormley said, about 1 year ago

What we need now is Pib and her extremely effective right cross.

Or a 37-ton housefly to come bursting through the walls like the kool-aid guy…OH YEAH!
Sisyphos said, about 1 year ago

FIZZLE.

Also, this would be an opportune moment for Pibgorn & Geoff, maybe even Luciano, to show up in the knick of time (“Here comes the cavalry! Yea!”).
AliKzam said, about 1 year ago

Okay, so Inky is not back there where Dru left? Spitcock actually did untangle himself from Dru to go zap Roger?
Pokefan_Frank said, about 1 year ago

Kind of cartoony the way Dru’s arm seems to just go out, but funny!

That’s probably the closest Dru will get to saying a swearword that is not “bitch”

Comment #25. All of them posted in less than a minute. So if you’re wondering why I’m all the way down here, my excuse is that I blinked
Trail_Blazer said, about 1 year ago

Hey tx: Been working too many hours and getting home too late. :(
But I’ve got all next week off - woo-hoo!!

I decided to give Cartman some time off, so I’m using one of our kitties (his name is Purrcy) until Cartman gets back.

Didn’t see Towellie…I figured he was off gettin’ high. :)

G’night, all!
Nabuquduriuzhur said, about 1 year ago

Her power generation quit generating? I’d think Expectoraterooster would be only able to steal some energy, not the ability to make energy, which is what Druzilla must have.
Pokefan_Frank said, about 1 year ago

Trail Blazer, bet that’s something to Give Thanks for!

Ferciuil, glad to have you back.

but I too haven’t been sleeping much so, good night to all as well.
tallwoman41 said, about 1 year ago

c’mon Roger, now’s your chance. Now would be a real good time for the giant fly and Pib to ride to the rescue.
Sisyphos said, about 1 year ago

Hmmm. I’ll just have a Little Something and then retire for the night. There are some leftovers, I hope, on the endtable?
txmystic said, about 1 year ago

Spitcock hasn’t lost an ounce of his sarcasm…

Any more guesses to who/what he might be? He might not be a natural demon after all, since demons do not need the mojo lamp to store their power, yet he was still able to conjure the scary plasma-blasting pixelating gray cloud that originally captured Pib, so where did that power come from?

I also now believe that the first encounter between Dru and Spitcock was a computer-generated hologram (hence the pixelation when she blasted him), designed to lure her into the lab and thus be captured into the power frame with Pib.
Fairportfan said, about 1 year ago

ooops.
Trail_Blazer said, about 1 year ago

Pokefan_Frank says:

It is indeed, Frank, and I am. But I’m not young anymore, so it’s time to hit the ol’ sack so I can do it all again tomorrow.

BTW, my vote is that Roger’ll apply a little old-fashioned mojo to Spitcock’s cranium with the Louisville Slugger. As Spock once said, “Crude…but effective”.

Cheers!

TrailBlazer says:_

That’s why he’s with us on the confusion couch…he’s so high he doesn’t even know what’s going on…
txmystic said, about 1 year ago

GoodNightNow!
Fairportfan said, about 1 year ago

Old military adage:

“If it’s stupid, but it works - it ain’t stupid.”

Or, as Vlad Taltos once observed: “No matter how powerful or subtle the wizard, a knife in the back will seriously cramp his style.”

That is - apply a bit of white ash mojo to either Spitcock … or the lamp … or both.
Trail_Blazer said, about 1 year ago

Later tater! :)
wildflowerose said, about 1 year ago

Grumpy O. B. says: SKU# for bulb-

Thanks, Grumpy, but since I have the adapter I can use nice green twisty fluorescents. But if you have the SKU# for the mojo….
wildflowerose said, about 1 year ago

Txmystic says “smack”

Oooh, feeelz gud. lotsa applescreesp for yu!
macFicheallaigh said, about 1 year ago

Is Spinky Inky? Was he able to become Inky only after he was able to draw off paranormal energy from Dru?

Wonder what’s going on with Dru – is this a drain, a misfire, or a fake?
GrumpyOldbear said, about 1 year ago

Dru is not above and has used the right cross herself. I do believe.

Knight all.
GrumpyOldbear said, about 1 year ago

Will look in the catalog - may take awhile, It is a yard long and growing.
This really is nitey nite
Fairportfan said, about 1 year ago

I just took a look at 9CL. Amosi is going to be surprised by that standing ovation i still think is coming…
The Old Wolf said, about 1 year ago

My excuse is that I just rolled in from the airport. My! It’s good to be back on the couch again.

F…? I thought the worst thing you could say around these parts was the Q-word. ;^) Still, that’s an almost-never seen expression on Drusilla’s face there. Spitcock is feeling pretty smug right now, but as someone said yesterday, he’s about to have a dozen or so new ones ripped any minute now.

Yas, yas, I think some good old force times distance is called for here, either from Roger’s bat, or Pib’s right cross, or Luczilla “dropping in”.

For the confusion couch, Anthon Berg chocolate coffee drinks: dark chocolate with liquid coffee centers, a souvenir of Europe. Enjoy!
Mikkail said, about 1 year ago

Or howsabout Lena to the rescue? We know Spitcock is not enarmoured of small girls armed with hoes. Any way that it goes down tomorrow, I sense another cliff hanger coming.
Hroth said, about 1 year ago
Oh B&@@#!
- What we need now is for Roger to step up to the crease and tap ‘ol Sarky there smartly across the back of the noggin, thus allowing Dru to recharge herself at the lamp. If he hits the lamp, he might damage it and prevent Dru using it.
- Mind you, I’m still of the opinion that Spitcock is an Evil Geni and the lamp is his home.
- But a disconcerted Dru is priceless…
Hroth said, about 1 year ago
9CWL: fairportfan, you’re right. Edda still hasn’t told him… Its going to be a humdinger of a finale!
- (Soooooo her vid got onto UToob already? I love the way she was staring at the laptop screen as he came into shot. Hehehehehehe )
Fairportfan said, about 1 year ago

Hroth says:

“(Soooooo her vid got onto UToob already? I love the way she was staring at the laptop screen as he came into shot. Hehehehehehe )”

Remember Seth told her he saw it on the ‘net…

The way she hides it behind her reminds me of some classic film or other (a Hitchcock, may hap?) - i mean a specific film, not just a generic pose, but i’ll be … blowed … if i can recall what film i’m thinking of.
SirMirom said, about 1 year ago

9CWL: how totally Brooke would it be if there WAS a video on YouTube now with Amos and Edda? That would be a totally McEldownoid crossover into reality.

I shan’t go looking for it, howsomever.

Pibby: I am totally waiting for the eponymous fairy heroine to come to the rescue (giant fly as her noble steed or otherwise). I predict this arc will end in about three weeks.

About Pibgorn

A fantastic saga of adventure both high and low, of forbidden passion and iambic pentameter, of fays, fools, organists, demons, accordions, heaven, hell and Shakespeare, Pibgorn follows the whims and flights of its eponymous fairy heroine as she plies her conviction that there must be more to life than depositing dew drops on dandelions and sleeping under mushrooms.
