    And if I saw a dead body I don’t think I’d scream the place down either.

    Geeze, I don’t know what’s funnier today, the stupidly-oblivious upside-down baby, or the feudal warrior who can’t seem to decide if he’s bored or stern.

    …prooooobably gonna have to go with the shogun. He has a funny hat.

      Although, the removed grenade pin is right up there.

      Nice work on the details.

        Wasn’t gonna put it in there, but I realized that someone would point that out.

    I was watching Starsky And Hutch earlier, and an old woman was being robbed. She wouldn’t stop screaming, and since she had no teeth, it was pretty silly. The more you know…

    I’ve been saying this for ages! Every time someone drops something in a movie/show, I say: “Why would you do that?” or “What a waste” if it’s food… So utterly ridiculous…

    I believe you drop it so your hands are free to grab your face or clutch your head next. Watch it in a show…. And why do girls strip down to their undies to answer the door in teenage slasher/horror movies? Just wondering. Also wondering how Bug could portray undies on his bugs.

    Let me tell you something. If the mess hall WERE out of Rice Krispies Treats…I’d drop a pin-pulled hand grenade too! Horrifying!

    I actually have dropped something because of a shocking revelation. I don’t remember what the revelation was — I’ve probably blocked it out in mental defense — but I remember the feeling of my hands going cold and numb. Just my whole body went cold, and a wave of numbness went along it, and, when it hit my hands, they relaxed, and the glass I was holding hit the floor.

    So it does happen.

    I also once crushed the thing in my hand out of anger, once genuinely saw red out of anger (so much blood rushed to my head that it affected my vision), have seen stars after hitting my head, and heard bells after hitting my head.

    … hunh. Apparently I’m a cartoon character. This explains much.

      You’re not alone, Ian. Once I was so angry I felt my face change color, though whether it went red or white I don’t know. And when I almost fainted after a head injury, I said, “Whoa– you DO see black spots before your eyes!”

      I guess we cartoon characters should stick together….

        I do occasionally see stars when my head hurts. Haven’t ever heard bells, though…

    Good detail on the pin being out of the grenade, but… the safety lever is still attached. The moment you let go of the grenade the safety level is flung away from it. I’m an army veteran and I have thrown live grenades before. I have actually mentioned this exact same thing with another web comic once. Also, love the comic.

    I never get surprised if it’s completely unexpected like a car crash or loud noises but if I know somethings going to jump out at me in a movie i jump out of my chair

    It seems you just don’t care what’s going on more than not reacting to it.

    I don’t see why “I’m leaving you for a shogun” would be an abnormal revelation for you, Adam.

      I do believe it’s a Bloom County homage. Actually more than one. “…and I’ve killed Nazis. SO WHOSE BABY ARE YOU CARRYING?” “the Shogun’s”

      … yeah, I re-read a lot of those as a kid
