How to Pick a New Razor

in

This comic actually got quite a bit of traction when it came out. So much, in fact, that I was asked by the manufacturers to review two razors. One by King of Shaves, and one called The Goodfella.

The one by King of Shaves was probably the best disposable I ever used, but looked disturbingly like a vegetable peeler

I still have The Goodfella, and use to clean up edges on occasion. As I wrote at the time, it’s metal with no moving parts. There’s no reason it won’t still work in 200 years.

For my daily shaving these days I use a Panasonic electric. It is by far the best electric razor I’ve found. I use it on my face and my head, and shaves as close as a blade. Just sayin’.

How to Get the Most Entertainment for Your Video Gaming Dollar

in

I’m currently playing the latest Hitman game, which is really good if you’re into that kind of thing, which I am. I like to think of Hitman as a more humane, moral, violent videogame, because instead of killing everyone I see, in Hitman, I only kill the specific person or people I’m being paid to kill.

I said that I like to think it’s more humane and moral, not that it actually is.

How to Decide Which Star Wars Character You Are Most Like

in

Obi Wan was the worst Jedi of all time.

His mentor ditched him for a kid.

He watched, helpless, stuck behind a force field as that mentor was killed.

He took over training the kid, Anakin, who kept sassing back and disobeying him.

He was ordered to capture Jango Fett. Fett got away.

He watched, helpless, pinned under debris as Count Dooku cut off Anakin’s hand. Yoda had to save them both.

He got knocked out and didn’t see the future emperor goading Anakin into executing Count Dooku. Anakin then saved Obi Wan by carrying his unconscious bulk.

Anakin, his Padawan, who he chose to train over Yoda’s objections, turned evil and wiped the Jedi out.

He goes to kill Anakin. He chooses to leave him alive, but angry.

He goes to Tatooine to “watch over” Luke.

He finds Luke unconscious after he’s been attacked.

He keeps Luke busy talking about light sabers and Imperial troop blast patterns while Luke’s aunt and uncle, who raised him, are being burned to death.

He travels to Alderaan as quickly as he can, and arrives right after the planet has been destroyed.

He drops the Death Star’s tractor beam, but gets Killed by Darth Vader, A.K.A. Anakin, A.K.A. the kid he trained.

He tells Vader, “Strike me down and I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.” Vader strikes him down. Obi Wan spends the next two movies demonstrating his new powers Vader couldn’t imagine: the power to talk and emit a faint blue glow.

Note from Missy: Hey, at least he got that tractor beam down.

How to Listen to Other People Talk About Their Vacation

in

I understand the allure of fantasy camps where you pretend to be a professional ball player, but I think it would be even better to go to a camp where you pretend to be a team owner. You sleep in a 5-star hotel, spend the day in a plush office having well-dressed professionals suck up to you, then you go down to the ballpark, meet your favorite player, and threaten to fire him if he doesn’t win.

Note from Missy: It occurs to me that “shagging fly balls” could be a euphemism.

How to Be Patient

in

This comic was written right after Missy and I attended the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival for the first time. A major beer maker sponsored a half hour long tasting where you received your samples after a twenty-five-minute-long lecture about hops and water filtration. The result for me was that I sat there feeling hot and frustrated until the last minute, when I shot-gunned four small glasses of beer and fled back out into the park.

The Food and Wine festival is quite enjoyable. I miss it. Yeah, the portions are tiny and the prices are high, but where else can you have a meal made up of bratwurst, escargot, cheddar soup, and baklava.

Food and Wine was also the first place I ever saw a full-grown man vomit while sprinting.
