Matt Byron
2022-11-02 03:37:42 +0000 UTCI will always remember one part of CHP motorcycle school. If you see a small animal or object in the road, it can be dangerous to avoid it, prepare to surmount the obstacle. If you encounter a larger animal such as a deer or moose avoid it. Hitting it is like crashing into a semi. So TLDR avoid moose, tar snakes and wet leaves.

Ethan Searls
2022-10-30 18:50:42 +0000 UTCThat's pretty good advice. Annoyed Megafauna are bad for your health - as in, the 'turn you into strawberry jam' kind of bad.
VoxOrbisBrad

James Lomele
2022-10-30 14:12:56 +0000 UTCFirst of all, there’s an awful lot of Monty Python fans here, and I think I have found my people. Second, moose are huge abominations of nature, foul tempered - especially in the fall, and a lot larger than you think, even if you have seen them in real life, their hugeness still impresses you. Bison are like that too. Bigger than you think they ought to be.
Jeff Gedney

2022-10-30 12:41:35 +0000 UTCAs seen on Patreon: one speech bubble tail points to an unexpected character, and seven people independently pipe up to point it out.

2022-10-30 10:34:14 +0000 UTCIt turns out that Cubetown's head of particle physics is a moose. It wandered in through an open door one day, and it was unanimously decided that giving it tenure was safer than trying to chase it out.
Dean Reilly

2022-10-30 03:47:53 +0000 UTCSpeaking as a Canadian, I'd be more concerned about the gooses. Moose'll leave you alone for the most part. A goose'll be on ya faster than two greased Newfies going after the last Tim Bit.

Pete Hanson
2022-10-30 03:32:14 +0000 UTCI will say, the fact that moose swim so much that a regular predator for the moose is the orca whale is a fact that lives absolutely rent-free in my head forever
Sara Larner

Fart Captor
2022-10-30 03:24:08 +0000 UTCThe only cure for moose bites is to kill the moose that bit you before you turn
Fart Captor

Fart Captor

Kajsa Anderson
2022-10-30 03:20:27 +0000 UTCThis is QC. There are moose who do particle physics. Maybe not at Cube Town, but they do exist. (My money’s on them working out of McMurdo Station…)
Yvonne Hanafee
2022-10-30 03:19:35 +0000 UTCAnd if you encounter a moose when swimming, do NOT get between the moose and the orca hunting it.

Bill Silvia
2022-10-30 03:11:06 +0000 UTCIs that "Why?" speech balloon in panel 2 supposed to be pointing in Sam and Veronica's direction? It feels like it only makes sense for Emmett to have said that then.

Sean Kinlin
2022-10-30 03:10:45 +0000 UTCAlternatively, Veronica is just being a troll.
Bill Silvia
