    Awesome! As a former plumber, this really strikes at home! Toilet and Sink plungers are actually interchangeable, btw.
    P.S. Pythagoras was a square, man! ha ha

    I love when Adam steps away from the absurd and the philosophical and devotes a strip to things we all can use in our day-to-day lives.

      The best strips combine those three, of course 😀

      For instance inventing a new absurdly philosophical meaning or use for a commonn object

    This would have been useful to know last Thursday.

    I laughed so hard when I read “Damn you, suction!”

    And I never knew that the plungers without the smaller center part were sink plungers. I thought they were all for the toilet. The More You Know!

        I always thought that it was the size of the plunger that mattered, i.e., the smaller ones are for sinks and the larger ones for toilets. At least that’s how they’re advertised.

        I always thought the toilet was the one without the stub O.o

    Hahaha, I thought it was going to be how the different bugs deal with being drunk and it ends with plungers! Hilarious. The last panel with the one liners i perfect. XD You are mighty eloquent while drunk I must say, lol. I don’t think that NerdBug agreed with you though. XD

    Sometimes, I imagine nerd-Bug as a giant albino lizard. Makes this strip krazy. 😀

    If that plunger in the last panel stays on too long it’s going to leave a mark!

    “Pythagoras couldn’t theorise his way out of a paper bag!”

    Dude, you could piss a lot of mathematicians off that way. 😉

      True
      But even if he could theorise his way out of a paper bag, in reality he would still be stuck.

      It is true. Pythagoras didn’t invent the theorem (the theorem was invented by the Sumerians), he only made it into a handy formula.

    Brobug (or dudebug) is becoming one of favourites just because he looks like such a douche LOL.

    Note to self: in a plunger duel, always pick the toilet plunger. Sink plungers aren’t for crap.

    As a ninja, we spend much time learning combat of all forms… so nothing I didn’t already know, but very useful for the uninitiated I suppose. Now, just be careful about plunger ninja stars.

    The ridiculously long pause in panel 2 (“Wait……………………….. What?”) is gold.

    Shouldn’t Nerdbug have hit him in the face with a toilet roll first to challenge him to the duel?

    The trust attack would probably work if you do it on your opponent’s face 😀

    Great comic, Adam!

    2 is a moot point. You can’t get disarmed when you can always retrieve your weapon and/or devise a strategy to turn the situation to your favor.
