We at Stanley Steemer do not call ourselves freaks.
We are gainfully employed almost-rehabbed friends.

I have employed Stanley Steamer. I don;t really think that the people who appeared at my house looked as if they had ever done drugs. They seemed only to have a fine love of steaming my carpet.

We apologize for the mixup.

The bruise convinced me this would be great.
The Grue convinced me this is the greatest thing ever.

My New Favorite Quote:
You are drinking with Lyle. There are no exits.
That is the answer to both "what is the saddest thing" and "what is the happiest thing," depending on who's asking.

Do you think there's any chance that the eastern path leading to the grue was actually in a Zork game?
A path spelling out 'grue' would be the sort of thing that would only be discovered by text-adventurers who made graph-paper maps of their progress.
I imagine Onstad was one of these, because I am happy to project my own neuroses onto people I have never met.

I'm pretty sure that if you meet a grue, you're dead. That's why you always need to carry a lantern with you. And a jawbreaker. To give to the shark guarding the underwater cave. So you can slip by with the scuba gear you found in the chest. God I want to know what's in that cave.

it's just a fat sultan. But, give him a piece of gold acquired from the old man across the underwater lake after answering his trivia question, than he will step out of the way of the old rickety door behind him. Behind this door is your girlfriend.
And that is what I remember from Hugo's Haunted House.

I'm still waiting for Onstad to create an Achewood text adventure.
Looks like he's got some leads on multi-character action.
I never got very far on the 'Hitchhiker' one, but I would buy this.

The Hitchhiker game was really, really good, but this one would kick it in the soft-boiled eggs. Any game where pulling a bruise off your face is a valid option is my kind of game.

Assetbar needs to go down more often. I miss commenting on strips with 16 comments.
