Is that cartoon from 1992 or something?

He's been here before. He paid a visit to the Giant Lava Lamp (tm) out in Ephrata many years ago.

What a disappointment. Did Bill do his homework from watching Singles? Zippy, we deserve better from you.

No, see the Bridge Troll is a man of stone? His metabolism is slower, so for him it wasn't that long ago that we wore Docs and flannel? We, in fact, have grown older, and larger on high-milkfat espresso drinks, and so our fashions have had to adapt? See? You don't see, do you?

Fuck it, I'm not going to explain Zippy the Pinhead if you all are too deaf, dumb and blind to listen...

Ha Ha Griffith knows Seattle all too well. I see grungeturds 90's relics wearing flannel all the time. Seattle is full of drugged-out loser morons anyways so yall probably didn't notice because you are too stoned or fucked up on heroin.

At least it isn't as bad as some asshole from San Fransisco googling "I love Seattle because" and making a $550000 art project based on rain and airplanes.

In 1988 I bought a Nash Metropolitan convertible because that's what Zippy drove.

It was the last great impact graphic narrative had on my life.

You guys DO realize you're getting your boxer-briefs all knotted up over a COMIC STRIP, don't you?
