What’s the phrase? “Too many cooks spoil the pot?” or is it “broth”? I dunno. This crowd looks like they’ll do fine, though.
They’ve just got to all start having the same conversation.
Nah, not really.

Don’t you hate that- when you get clumped together with someone else. I mean, I do. I always get mistaken for that famous actor, whatshisface. The old guy. Dead, possibly. You know who I mean. Anyhow, I sign his name on autographs. Serves him right for jacking my style.
Anyhow, as you can tell- these guys really, really don’t look alike. Really.

And so we see the dispensation of the wagons. Sometimes, all ya gotta do is have the intention of asking, and ya get what you came for.
That’s Hubris for ya.
You don’t wanna go bog down your process, now do ya?
Your team has stuff to get done, and your team is being hunted down for individual beatings. Best to streamline that workflow.
Oops! Except for the Patreon folks, who got this cartoon Monday morning, this is going up late. I have all this week’s cartoons done and ready to go, and didn’t hit all the correct buttons because I’m used to setting these up one at a time, right after I draw them.
*sigh* Trying to be better about my schedule is making me worse at my schedule.
It’s the simple questions in life that mean the most-
“Do you want dessert?”
“Why are we here?”
“Is your mom always like that?”
“What’s the ultimate question of Life, The Universe, and Everything?”
“Why?”
So, here, Hubris asks a question that Peter should have considered before now. “Why?” Do we know Why Peter wants to have a huge chain of stores? For fame? For money? For fulfilling a sense of importance and destiny that life has heretofore failed to provide? And Mal. Why does Mal care about this? Maybe ’cause he knows he’ll be needing a job pretty dang soon. Maybe ’cause Peter has more of an alpha personality than Mal can handle and he’ll wise up later. And Hubris? He probably knows Why Not, but maybe not Why.
You work with the tools you have.
If you got mad duct tape skillz, you can’t go sweating what skills you lack! Use what you got.
I know a guy who can spot four-leaf clovers while just walking along. I have trouble seeing them if you put then in my hand next to two three leaf clovers. But my buddy- if he needs luck? Boom. Skillz.
I dunno about you guys, but I can’t picture an alliance between the Outdoor Galore Store, Ex-Sportsmart employees, and Enis’s Good Sporting adding up to a viable challenge to the cold, calculating machinations of HomeTeam SportStores.
Of course, it might be only because of the people I’m lookin’ at in today’s strip. But, y’know, looks can be deceiving.
When you start trying to find a way to look at something you’ve done that puts you in the best light…
Chances are that the light was pretty sketchy, otherwise you wouldn’t have gone looking for better, right?
I said that in my ‘Dad’ voice. You knew that, di’ncha?
