    I dunno. I could probably get into a conversation about Silly Putty VS Play-Doh.

    (Clearly, Play-Doh would be the victor!)

      Pfft, clearly Silly Putty would win as Play-Doh dries out a lot quicker.

      silly putty is more powerful but play-doh can come in larger containers so it would be a close one. One thing that would need testing: if you mix them which one does the mixture resemble more? if one can assimilate the other that would make it the clear winner!

        Play-doh doesn’t actually mix. It just sort of swirls.

    I had this conversation with my friend at one point:

    Him: So the missus looked at me this morning in a sexy playful mood and asked me what I wanted most in the world.
    Me: Yeah?
    Him: So I said bacon.
    Me: Lol, you botard.
    Him: Which clearly wasn’t the answer she was looking for.
    Me: rofl!
    Him: but it was honest..
    Me: lollol, you’re such a moron.. ……hmm, bacon, damn I could eat some bacon right now!
    Him: See, I was right!

    Silly putty, no doubt. Much more versatile than Play-Doh. It bounces, it snaps, it copies! Play-Doh is no match.

    also don’t you mean ‘your sweet one’ instead of ‘sweet on’

      Nope, to be “sweet on” a girl is to be fond of or attracted to her. It’s kinda old-tymey.

      No, because it says “a girl you’re sweet on”. Learn the difference between “your” and “you’re” and you’ll be part of the properly-educated minority.

    The big can of Play-Doh would crack that little egg of Silly Putty wide open.

    You can’t go wrong with corny. First, make sure you know the color of her eyes. Then compliment those eyes.

    There is no woman who doesn’t have a feature to be admired. Keep those features in mind and be prepared to compliment. “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” also works.

      Corny might make me burst out laughing, if done right, but it will never ever make me do the hokey with anyone. If you want me to be naked in your presence tell me honestly what you’re thinking about.

      And yes, Silly Putty would win. Mostly because it can make that fartsound. It always cracks me up.

        Seek the smile quality not just the container. FYI, most run when the truth is told. I suspect some body misinformed a lot of people during childhood that silly-putty farts are not funny. Perhaps that is why most people run from reality. Not me, I am still comparing play-dough and silly putty sounds with a smile on my face. Long live the putty fart!

          A watched pot WILL boil, holding a fan in place so it makes that clicky noise WONT break it, bouncing a ball off the wall WONT dent it, and silly putty DOES make hilarious fart noises. MOM. YOU LIED TO ME.

            Actually, the clicky noise will eventually make a fan break. I’ve cannibalized a few for parts when someone breaks one that way.

      Adam, I can understand your wanting total perfection for your very first collection, but I don’t see why we can’t have t-shirts now now now. I think a great t-shirt design would be a solid black back and a solid white front so that we could look like your bug army while wearing ’em. You could just print your masthead logo over the left nipple. Or the luv prof. Or nerd bug. Or whatever. I’m sure I could find a sweatshop in Bangladesh that would be thrilled to work out the details for you…

        building on the black-and-white shirt, maybe that should be a hoodie, with antenna sticking up from the hood.

    Please bring back Da Luv Professor. Again and again and again and again…

    Also, play-doh would totally win. Have you ever tried pushing silly putty through the Play-doh workshop? I have, and it ain’t pretty…

        Da Luv Professor sounds like Freud in my head. And silly putty would SO win against play-doh. Using the Play-doh machine is cheating.

    Funny thing, when a girl asked me what I was thinking, I was honest. I asked her how she had two strikingly different eye colors.

    Okay, I laughed out loud (at work!) on the last panel. It’s additional proof that real honesty has no place in a relationship, especially in the early stages.

    As a woman, I would be more willing to jump the bones of anyone who is willing to discuss an epic battle of Silly Putty and Play-Do.

    the first guy talking about baby seals screams douche to me. where as the second guy seems like he’s trying to impress you (in a gross, but sweet way.) most likely to get brother status from me. and the last guy is just being honest and would sound the most interesting. then again, i’m a geek/nerd, and met my boyfriend at a university anime club, sooooo…..

      Anyone who goes by the name Elvenjedi is worth knowing, to me. XD

      As a guy, I’ve always hated the type of guy (who is unfortunately the majority) who intentionally lies, twists the truth, and makes up compliments and shit on the spot just so they can get laid. The first girl I EVER dated was in 11th grade, and we are now happily married and living together. Quality above Quantity. Sure, I had crushes before her, but nothing I could call love – just my hormones going “HOLY HELL, I WANT THAT NOW.”

        You’re blaming the guys? Why should it be the guys fault that women like to be lied to?

        In fact, this comic is very right:
        Women tell you all the time to be honest, but they are WAY more likely to choose a liar over the honest guy. :-/
