meritorious - having merit
catachresis » neu 2 years ago
Well, yes. It was just awesome usage.
theoneyouwant » neu 2 years ago

hollis » neu 2 years ago
Or maybe... dictionarious!
charchar » neu 2 years ago
definitive?
rowboat » pro 2 years ago
Didactic.
charchar » neu 2 years ago
Well done, sir. Yay, words!
zaratustra » neu 2 years ago
You mean it was meritorious usage.
anomalous3 » neu 2 years ago
skyclad....heh heh.
agika » pro 2 years ago
Great, now I'm going to spend the rest of the day wondering whether snails have assholes or not.

dumbledore » neu 3 months ago
So they just poop into themselves?
scorpio_nadir » neu 2 months ago
Looks like they basically shit down their own neck.
griffypoo » neu 1 months ago
Well, at least they don't have to rip off their own head to do it.
scorpio_nadir » neu 1 months ago
Evolution is wonderful.
never_die » neu 2 years ago
Pat sucks SO bad.
theoneyouwant » neu 2 years ago
DO snails have assholes?
hollis » neu 2 years ago
Yep! They are up near the front though!

I'm glad people's assholes are located safely far away from their mouths.
erinye » neu 2 years ago
(not that you can tell with a lot of people)

(like Pat, for instance)
cpnglxynchos » neu 1 years ago
huh! weird!
dr_butt » neu 2 years ago
They all have tiny little assholes! It's horrible! Horrible!
solobuttons » pro 1 years ago
Ah fuck, I was gonna make a similar reference. Awww hell:

ASSHOLES COVER THE EARTH. IN A WAY TREES HAVE ASSHOLES BUT YOU CAN'T FIND THEM, THEY JUST DROP THEIR LEAVES.
connellingus » pro 2 years ago
I like this strip just for Pat's answering machine message. I am deeply considering using a similar message with my name in place of Pat's name.
deancain29 » neu 2 years ago
I am changing my answerphone message to this.
rogergs » neu 2 years ago
The tractor feed holes, and the comma after Pat, absolutely nail the library message.
meganasty » neu 6 months ago
It takes some serious chops to justify-align a voicemail.
random_shorts » neu 1 months ago
The library's automated message all spoken as if printed on a dot matrix printer.
songbirdspectre » pro 2 years ago
does no one else find "Hello!" to be an awesome name for a brochure?
lechatbotte » pro 1 years ago
Especially a brochure about skyclad jains! Hello!
serf » neu 2 years ago
ive always wondered if snails had assholes
ttagxamm » neu 2 years ago
I wonder if that book on the marginalized and nearly extinct culture of the Zoroastrians featured a jacket blurb from Freddie Mercury, The Only Zoroastrian in The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?
erinye » neu 2 years ago
Jainism != Zoroastrianism

Unless you were referring to "Yoga for Vegans".
ttagxamm » neu 2 years ago
You had me worried for a minute till I remembered it's the alt-text which mentions Zoroastrianism -- Freddie Mercury was born to an Indian Parsi family who I belive followed that faith.

erinye » neu 2 years ago
ohokay I should've checked the alt text. I stand corrected.
shutup_shutup » neu 1 years ago
I don't really agree with the usage "!=" for "does not equal." To me it looks more like "REALLY! equals".
boredom_man » neu 1 years ago
the English didn't agree with putting prepositions at the end of sentences, and that's why we let them all die in WWII!
honesttom » neu 2 years ago
How does vegan yoga differ from the regular kind?
ocarinak » neu 2 years ago
There's no animal products involved.
vincentkv » pro 2 years ago
I don't understand how there was even a question.
rowboat » pro 2 years ago
Blood Rite. Sodomy.
charchar » neu 2 years ago
You stand up slowly so all the blood doesn't rush from your vegan head and make you dizzy (I'm a vegetarian so I'm allowed to pick on vegans).
saucy_jack » neu 2 years ago
I'm allowed to pick on vegans because I eat meat.

It's the food chain.
notcool » neu 1 years ago
Get used to it.
mikeronomicon » neu 1 years ago
I'm allowed to eat vegetarians AND vegans when all other food sources are scarce because I as well eat meat, and those who don't taste like chicken.
rhadamanthus » pro 2 years ago
Pat is just the kind of asshole who could only tolerate reading "comedy" koans.
riazm » neu 1 years ago
How'd they resist naming them "Komedy Koans"

Greater men than me, that's for sure.
hrm » pro 2 years ago
Jains used to sweep the ground%u2014the path whereupon their foot might tread%u2014before they walked there as not to kill any tiny organisms.
hrm » neu 2 years ago
those awful clusters of symbols are dashes
xerol » neu 1 years ago
So Pat is his last name?
howl » neu 1 years ago
No, the comma just shows the pause between his first and last name in the manner of a computerized voice
ih8jonmayr » neu 1 years ago
Pat is the guy who sucks.
