    If you would like to ‘favorite’ the strip, (and maybe the sketch, too), simply log in and click on the ‘Favorite’ star directly above the strip. Mr. McEldowney very kindly asked for us what purpose is served by favoriting, and this was the answer:
    I asked my editor at Gocomics about the purpose of “favoriting” a strip. Her answer was this: “‘Favoriting’ allows people following you to see what comics you like. ‘Favorited’ comics also show up under your profile, and allow us to see what comics people are enjoying.”
    Basically, I think it provides a method for spreading the word.

    You can certainly say that again! Quite the spin, indeed.

    Radical-KnightGenius_badge said, 7 months ago

    Bustard’s tongue is under his lower teeth?
    [EDIT] - Or maybe that’s his lower lip?

  4. The Old Wolf

    The Old WolfGenius_badge said, 7 months ago

    That’s a fat, protruding lower lip. Just like mine, right about now. s-s-s-s-s!

    Bustard seems…impressed ?

  6. Sisyphos

    Sisyphos said, 7 months ago

    Nat Bustard is making a fool of himself, and over what? A gorgeous, half-naked, torch-singing professional succubus? What’s up with that?
    (Oh, my stars! Must keep a grip on reality! Must….)

  7. The Old Wolf

    The Old WolfGenius_badge said, 7 months ago

    You gotta hand it to Nat, he’s got an unquenchable libido. I mean, the guy just got his ashes hauled 6 times in a row, and he’s still working himself into a lather. ‘Course, I don’t blame him…

    Just made myself some more of my spicy rice, BTW - had a 2-pound pork roast i bought on terminal markdown to use up.
     
    This batch is much tastier than the last one.
     
    It may even be spicier than this strip.

    NYTOL, Couchies!

    I think he swallowed his tongue.

    Bustard has had a glimpse of his little patch of heaven. Which seems an odd thing to say about demons.

  12. mjolnir 9

    mjolnir 9 said, 7 months ago

    Can it be that our…basic instincts…are being brought into question here?

    I must ponder this proposition. Deeply. For a long time. Perhaps even repeatedly. PROBABLY even repeatedly.

    Then I’ll come back with some snacks.

    Man I’m a girl and Dru turns me on:)

    It appears that Bustard now knows the answer to a riddle that has plagued mankind for centuries: What colour undies does a succubus wear?

  15. Sisyphos

    I’ll say it. I prefer Drusilla’s version to Sharon Stone’s.

    Had a female friend who loved watching good ole hetero dirty movies.
     
    Sometimes she would … never mind - what she said was too rude for this forum.

    thevenbede said, 7 months ago

    Unless he puts out that ciagarette, more than his libido will be in flames. Oh silly me this whole oeuvre is taking place under a mountain of magma.

  18. Sisyphos

    Sisyphos said, 7 months ago

    Bear in mind ccdesan’s initial post “last night,” fairportfan: ”Geez is she going commando?”

  19. thevenbede

    thevenbede said, 7 months ago

    Perhaps, gross as it might be, our demon lover has bitten off his tongue and it’s just lying limply on his lower lip? (Unlike certain other portions of his anatomy?

    I was going to say “I know who’s sleeping alone tonight”, but since you’ll be up all night with this anyway….

  21. thevenbede

    Dru going commando would explain the look on his face.

  22. Sisyphos

    Sisyphos said, 7 months ago

    How many more of these…shall we say “inspiring”?…episodes can Honorable Master turn out? Will he keep us in a frenzy all week? (–Which would be fine with me, you understand!)

    If Nat was the dead guy with the detached tool we know where it would be right now…

  25. thevenbede

    thevenbede said, 7 months ago

    Sisyphos If the maestro keeps it up (so to speak) all week, we’re going to have to get at least one more mop to wipe up the drool around the couch and some more towels for the pool. I had to snitch a bunch from that stack and the one by the hot tub.

  26. thevenbede

    thevenbede said, 7 months ago

    Quiet night, guess I’ll mosey off to bed. Gute Nacht!

  27. Sisyphos

    Sisyphos said, 7 months ago

    You’re right, thevenbede; it is getting kind of messy around here!

    Succubi wear undies? Why?

    In previous posts, mention has been made of the Tex Avery cartoon “Red Hot Riding Hood” – bottom panel is very similar to the wolf’s reaction to Ms Hood’s performance.

    “‘It appears that Bustard now knows the answer to a riddle that has plagued mankind for centuries: What colour undies does a succubus wear?’

    “Succubi wear undies? Why?”
     
    Because a nicely-wrapped package is prettier than an unwrapped one?
     
    However, the proper answer to the riddle is “Colour? Huh?”
     

    “In previous posts, mention has been made of the Tex Avery cartoon Red Hot Riding Hood’ – bottom panel is very similar to the wolf’s reaction to Ms Hood’s performance.”
     
    I just spent some time Googling for my favourite still from the Jim Carey film The Mask - the one where he’s doing the Tex Avery Wolf routing in the night club, with his heart pounding in and out of his chest.
     
    You can’t see it in the film, because of the motion, but in that still, you can clearly see that the buttons on his shirt are little purple heart-shaped thingies.

    When I was in high school/college, it was mainly the girls who were renting those particular tapes. Hard not to notice those rather lurid covers.
    In 2008, 51% of internet pornography was purchased by women.

    Hi all! I’ve been lurking out here for a couple of years now. Seeing Dru/Dinah repeatedly like this finally persuaded me to take the plunge, sign-up and join all of you.

    Ah, yes?

    ACME Ice company. Someone ordered 10 tons of cubes for a,..lemme see here..SWIMMING POOL??

    (More Knocking)

    Help yourself to some fresh coffee and croissants.

    All of this, and just think - fires are burning the building down.
    Not that there is a lot of difference between one visual or the other on the basis of fire alone…

    Nat doesn’t exactly have a poker face, does he? More like a pole-axed face.

    I love the way Dru always has one or two errant hairs that refuse to conform to her coiffure du jour.

    Nat has glimpsed the promised land, and it fried his little brain… .
