Is everyone getting ready for Christmas? I’m getting new skate shoes.
You can tell they’re mine, because they have extra ankle support and are large enough to fit over an ankle brace, besides.
I figured won’t be much longer that I’ll either have to quit skating or have one of those surgeries where they replace bits of you.
Cyborg Cartoonist. Sounds kinda cool.
Cyborg ultra cool, until the weather changes and it aches.
Yep, we have another unharmonic convergence happening at Ground Hubris…. stay tuned!
I had the knee replacement 7 months ago. It makes a great barometer.
Just when you think things are starting to settle down.
Hubris: “No Kara, I got this. First, I’ll need those rifles…
Then, everyone, sign up for my Patreon account before I count to three…”
“Mr. Draussen.” I think this is the first time I’ve seen Hubris’ last name (unless I missed it consistently while re-re-reading…..)
It’s sort of been teased out when Kara’s father was trying to out manly-man Hubris and the group went out shooting. Hubris brought out one kick-keyster rifle that had belonged to his dad (and Hubris is a good shot), and we pinned who it probably was by the year it could have happened that his dad medaled in the Olympics. So Greg and the Fans had a long one in comments and the last name of Draussen came forth… but this is the first time it’s been mentioned IN strip.
First appearance of Draussen *in the strip*, yes. But go here and take a gander at the tags:
http://hubriscomics.com/comic/hubris-dream-scheme/
So, a little more six years after his debut, Hubris is officially no longer mononymous!
I could have sworn someone had called him by his full name at some point in the past. That’s why I’m so impressed with you guys’ knowledge of the strip.
okay where to start on this comic.
can someone explain to me why Paste hasn’t been sent to correctional facility yet or having to call the parents to pay the BAIL?
second: miss this is a POLICE OFFICER…don’t hang around with guns like that it tends to get them…antsy.
Kelly…WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO? and can’t you at least ask please before you ask someone to pay your cab? your equipment…am surprised you don’t lose more than that actually.
and the ANESTHESIOLOGIST IS BACK…dumb as before, thinking he can do the triathlon…he really must be related to Lowell a way or another.
and well Greg i had 3 prosthetic knees done on me, 3 because they had put the first one 15 degrees sideways. and believe ME when i say you will know the weather ahead with that kind of shit.
Step on a sewing pin and drive it through the end joint of your next to little toe on left foot. And develop osteoarthritis in it. That is a more accurate barometer than the weatherman by far!!!!! (and Yes I took Relafen for three years because of that toe, it did help-I moved down 2000 feet and that helped with the barometric lows and got me off the meds)
yeah the employee at my parent’s kennel believes MY barometer more than TV OR HER CELLPHONE. i can even tell you if it’s going to rain in the hour. and, unlike a frog, i don’t need a ladder.
i got so much metal in me if my mustache tingles i KNOW it’s going to rain in the hour.
i piss off/help people around me with that.
and believe me i would do WITHOUT the pain and such…
Bet going through TSA if you’re flying is a REAL JOY (sarcasm dripping). Oh I found out last month you can have no more than 10 one quart baggies in your luggage. (I went through with 9, long story)
oh yeah so DAMN “funny” you go no idea.
especially if i pass through Paris. the guys want to work so much (sarcasm too) they make me pass the detector 5 times UNTIL i scream at them to pull out their damn “magic wands” and do their job. especially if my plane is getting close due to them.
when i am in the states generally it goes better. except that ONE GUY kept on pulling on my pants down that at the end i wanted to ask him if he wanted to see my ass so much.
but yeah…just to give you an idea of HOW “good” PARIS IS, EXTREME SARCASM, we are traveling the day before there, spending the night there to take our flight to the states the DAY AFTER.
HOPING this time they don’t make us lose it…this time.
once our arrival flight had been moved forward, the other moved backward. we waited 8 hours and they STILL nearly made us miss it.
so…LOVING IT.
but am not rich and famous to have my private jet so i deal with it to enjoy good times.
Yeah I got some fingernail polish (one tiny half cleaned off smear) on my big laptop and they had the sniffer pick up the volatiles and had to swab it. It was start of day and shift and they were still being polite, but. Just another thing wrangling my personal bag of techtoys through (it weighed more than my carryon). I got wanded too, and they told me about the baggie limit (I was carrying merchandise I made and was delivering at a convention I attended, the preorders) as I had kindly bagged up stuff to be neat. Then they hid my shoes when they rolled the totes through… you have my condolences karmacat.
i know they doing their jobs but at times they are “slightly” pushing it.
i try to stay nice with them, say hi, have a good day and such but some just push the wrong buttons in me i admit it fully.
At least at my usual hub transfer they put in MORE push line past the scanners, to allow a few more moments to get your act together AND get out of the way… I liked that at least.
Oh, Officer Ng, assuming you didn’t already know that this is the zaniest beat on the block, you’re about to get a crash course. If you plan to stick around for a while, talk to Officers Pettigrew and Tuckett and they’ll get you up to speed. Might lessen the shock — not much, but some. They’ll also clue you in on all of the dramatis personæ, though not necessarily by name (though you DO know who Mr. Draussen is, so that’s a start).
and kara was saying something about back to work. looks like work got to her the kind she wasn’t expecting.
