Heh. I really wish this interaction could extend a bit more before Lucas’ almost not late arrival.

That’s the most Ethan one sided conversation in the comic for a while.

If Ethan is so shocked about moustaches… what are his thoughts about beards?

I once threatened to shave my beard off to my wife, and just leave the moustache.

She said “ew no I hate moustaches!”

I pointed out that I technically already have one. She was conflicted.

I guess if you have a good full beard, it kind of connects to your moustache and becomes one lol. I guess she just doesn’t like the look of a moustache by itself.

It’s not nice to threaten to shave your wife’s beard off.

You never know, the idiot savant Ethan is, makes reading his thoughts like Deadpool vs Taskmaster fight.

But who’s going to test Ethan?

No I’m pretty positive he has no idea and assumed he’s just a customer he somehow didn’t scare off. They’ve never met so to the best of my knowledge Ethan has no idea what Ben looks like.

Holy GD @#%@, Ethan!

I’m not sure what would be funnier, if this is an honest-to-goodness Ethan train of thought, or if he already figured out it was Ben and is just riling him up for giggles.

No. No. No. What about them? No. No. No. Only if you want them to. Yes.

Glad I could clear that up for you, Ethan. 😆

You’ve provided more answers then there are question marks. It doesn’t line up.

That is exactly why it would be super effective versus Ethan.

“How is someone supposed to grab on…” is a question, but the question mark is omitted in favor of a comma for some reason (maybe to indicate Ethan’s rambliness?). The second part is declarative, but the first part is interrogative, and thus, I added an answer for it. The first “No” in the second set is that you’re not supposed to. I suppose “They’re not” might have been clearer there. Let us now depart, having provided Tim’s audience what they’ve really wanted all along: a grammar debate. 😆 (I will explicitly state that the last sentence is tongue in cheek,… Read more »

If Lucas and Ben’s relationship can withstand Ethan, it can withstand anything.

There… is a lot to unpack here. But, Ethan is Ethan and Lucas will have fun explaining this to Alonso.

That is what I would call “The Full Ethan” all at once. If Ben doesn’t run from the building screaming after this, he is a keeper for sure!

I was really confused by panel 2, and almost Google’d “Mustache Rides.”

But then I realized, this is a work computer, and I might not want to see what pops up.

I encourage you to do so! Add “In my area” to the search as well that way you can experience your first one more easily!

Do I Google “moustache ride?”. Hmmm…. I’m really curious, but fearful of what I might see.

My thought was, I don’t know what moustache rides are and I don’t want to look it up.

Saw a guy walking down the street today with a “pornstache” and said, “Oh! Hey Alonso!” I don’t think he heard me.

They’re still on the counter, Alonso walked in front of them during the questioning. You can see them on the right side in the first panel and under his right arm in the last panel, though the perspective makes it look like they moved along the blue glass during the conversation

I am typing more words in hopes that this will allow the recaptcha validation threshold to be met.

Ethan, you are not having pizza for lunch. You are having tacos, or at least Mexican food.
