Well, if you perform nuclear fusion on the poop, it does have quite a bit of energy.
If I remember correctly, 1 gram is the equivalent of a 50 megaton explosion. Or is it 50 grams is equal to a 1 megaton explosion? I can never get that one right.
Hope you’ll forgive the nitpickery, but it seems like the text in the first panel should be “The best genre to fall off something *in* is science fiction.” Right now it sounds like the genre itself is falling. Which may or may not be the case, depending on your view of contemporary entertainment.
My tortured attempt at wit aside, there’s just something inherently funny about a toilet, even ignoring what it’s used for. Inexplicable floating just sweetens the pot (no pun intended, though I know that won’t stop anyone here).
If you really want to be nitpicky, it should be “The best genre *in which* to fall off something,” but I was too busy laughing at “carbon-based dipwad” to care.

I think this is the first (and only) time I’ve ever heard the phrase “hover toilet”
I love how “git” works in the double meaning.
I was going to say the same thing.
Is it a noun, or a verb?
Ah the hover toilet… a poo with a view.
Wait a minut… Where does the shit go?
It’s like Mr. Fusion on the Delorean, the hover toilet uses it as fuel.
Makes sense to me.
Hmm, next thing we know, there’ll be fart-powered jet packs too.
Intriguingly, I do wonder if these ideas are ever gonna… take-off.
I take it you don’t read Dr. McNinja?
KJ, didn’t you just mean ‘chili’?

Don’t overthink that one.
I finally understand the phrase ‘comic relief’.
I think the best genre would be Road Runner cartoons. Sure, it hurts for a while but you heal only to fail and fall again.
And if you accidentally run off a cliff, you won’t actually fall unless you look down!
And if you never studied law, the law of gravity never applies to you.
I imagined robobug speaking in Arnold Shwarzenager’s (Or however you spell it.) voice. It made it even funnier than it already was
Why would the robot and cowboy push you off a cliff rather than shoot you?
Waste of a bullet/energy round
Nice use of the UN-hyphenated “dipwad”, Adam.
First panel – when did Davros approve the new bug Dalek model?
Well, for starters, instead of ONE eyestalk, it now has TWO antennae. That one more, so the new model must be better.
Plus, those arms look like they have elbows, a big improvement on the old model.
Dang, I thought you said “why,” not “when.”
The exception being Western cartoons. If you run your feet fast enough, you can get back on the cliff.

Not necessarily. A comma after the added ‘in’ would do nicely, too.
Nitpickery forgiven. I see what you’re saying, but I’ve read it several times and I think it reads fine as is. Maybe I’m just weird.
Maybe? Dude! Your weirdness and creativity is what keeps us all coming back for more! Love your stuff…but you already know that!
Thanks!
Thinkgeek needs to get on a hover toilet NOW!
Soylent Green is people!
[splat!]
Not true, In a western you could land in a river and be swept downstream or catch the branch of an overgrown tree to break your fall.
That only applies to Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
All I can think of is Back to the Future III…I think I saw it too recently.
I feel like I was the only who thought “carbon-based dipwad” was a pun for “carbon-based biped.”
Intentional or not, it certainly made that panel a hell of a lot funnier for me.
Is “hell” inappropriate for comments?
Hell is fine. Think “PG” when commenting. You’re okay as long as you don’t drop any F-bombs.
In fantasy, there are usually convenient mages around.
