You have to take the personalities of your characters into consideration when writing these comics. I’ve said that before.
They each have their own voice and behaviors that matter.
Paste, on the one hand, would definitely ride out a crazy stunt.
Lowell, on the other hand, would bail out, after it was kinda too late to bail out.
And you people would stand at the edge of a mudpit and cheer the little rat as he flew to certain doom. Admit it. I got ya figured out.
You’ve got us pegged all right. Jettison Lowell and keep flying.
I’d be the one with the baseball bat at the finish line, winding back to pop Paste back out of the field…
LMAO
They could claim they did it on purpose and call it the Bing Bong maneuver.
1. Lowell is gonna be sore.
2. He looks like he’s got VERY bad gas… haha fart humour.
I hadn’t noticed the source of the flume till you mentioned it.
FART HUMOUR!!!!
So Paste used Lowell’s extra weight to get the speed down the hill so he could make it through the ring of fire and to the mud bog at the end without Lowell. Good strategy Paste. With them play loose with any pretext of rules, you should be a shoo in.
Ah, you beat me to it…
Poor Lowell…
Now Paste is a ringer 🙂
Genius actually; use Lowell’s… um, “immense personage” to drive the cart downward by gravity, then have him bail out just at the jump leaving Paste to rocket all the way into the mud (and hopefully right into Chase R. Ambule or maybe the Cassowary).
There’s such a thing as “maximum landing weight”. It was very self-sacrificing of Lowell to bail in mid-flight. There wouldn’t be much left of that wagon if it landed with Lowell in it.
Cheer? I’d be NEXT!!
