(9th - October 2007) Little Blue Pills

[Uniqueusername]

Dave seems to have a medication problem...

Things really are falling apart, aren't they?

[wacko]

I know we asked Dave to get a spine, but did we ask him to be bossy to Margaret? I guess we'll have to be careful what we wish for...

[Marcos]

Dave seems to have a medication problem...

No, he's just making a second try at committing suicide.

His first being punching Roger?

[Moxie]

^ hahaha!

[wacko]

That too, but Dave's tried to commit suicide before. See the "Assisted Suicide" storyline.

No, he's just making a second try at committing suicide.

Those pills don't look like Asprin to me. Small blue pills?
I suggest they are derpdrugs.

Given that dose, it means Margaret is the one who is going to die, but at least she'll die happy.

Seriously though, given the slurred speech and confusion, I think it's pretty likely Dave has a concussion. Margaret needs to get him to hospital ASAP.

well with that overdose chance are hes not going to be in a postion to stop her from dragging him into the hospital

but on a selfish note " i want know whats on that note"

[Loner]

My remedy would be a nice large meal of hallucinogenic blue mushrooms and a side dose of satanic intervention.

[wacko]

If we're talking about blue pills to relieve pain, it could be Aleve.

You don't seriously think Margaret would mistake derpdrugs for aspirin, do you? Would she (or the guys) even have derpdrugs?

[PsycheDragon_GD]

Well, we know that when Dave overdoes it with the lasers, he tends to lose it a little. My guess is that he doesn't quite have a concussion, but something similar that's caused by his over-lasering (that's not even a word, is it?).

Definitely, it would require brain damage to piss off Margaret when he's wounded and she'd helping him.

[Moxie]

I'd rather see what's going on with Marsha, I think.

This is interesting and all, but Dave'll recover. He always does.
Unless...he shall be the next to go.

I'd bet it was a letter from Mike to Blue. Mike also had sketches of his sister, and Dave assumed they were done by Roger. (Same style as the Dragon he got earlier)

[swampfather]

Mike possesed Dave.

[wacko]

Interesting statement to begin your posting career with. Welcome to the CRFH forum, swampfather!

Dave seems to have a medication problem...

Or he could have an immunity problem. Considering all the scrapes he's been through and the pricing and requirement of a doctor's prescription for the more serious pain suppressing drugs, he's probably grown a tolerance for most over the counter versions, hence the need for a larger dose to get the same effect.

Well, that and him being whiney and not being able to tolerate pain all that well.

Side note, is anyone reminded of the Weres from CotC with regards to Roger? They also seem to have this superiority complex with regards to the mundanes. Some back to basics with Lily might be in order. Plus, if Dave really wants to nail Roger's hide to the wall..

One word.

Diana..

Don't think she'd be too pleased with the idea of Roger having romantic feelings for someone else. Not after that whole Roger and Margeret having nookie in the forest thing, true they resolved that with the payment, but still.. Redheads and jealousy and all that.

[Mad Bomber 80]

I don't think anyone's mentioned the most important part of this strip.


That being Margaret's belly button.

[Pope William T Wodium]

We do notice that the pills aren't in his mouth, right? They're just resting on his face. There's no overdose here.

I think they are Blue's letters to Dave that Mike intercepted. Only Dave think Roger did it.

Look closer. You'll see that Dave's cheeks are puffing out. He's got a mouth full of Aleve...

But, than, maybe he's just got a head ache (*stretches out arms*) THIS BIG.

[Dr. Jeff]

Pfft, derpdrugs...

That's debatable. Due to the Goddess' unique drawing style, it's not clear at all whether his mouth is full of pills or the pills are resting on his face.

Any guesses?

[Quetza]

I'm going with the attempted suicide thesis. I mean, come on, "OW. Bah head. Ts alive" ? Even for Dave, that's an odd way of stating things.

I'd say that punching Roger wasn't attempted suicide. He looked far too furious and focused on him for it to be "Hey guys, I wanna die so I'll poke the furry thing and see what happens".

On the "inside the mouth or on the face" issue (that somehow sounds way worse than I intended, sorry), seems pretty clear to me. I agree with jpcrim, it's no stylistic inaccuracy, his cheeks are clearly puffings out. The rest of the pills are just extra that wouldn't fit.

(Oh, fresh meat, by the way. Do your worse. )

[Technetus]

Would she (or the guys) even have derpdrugs?

Search your archive, I believe Roger once spiked Mike's hair gel with it...

[s1]

Then Dave will looks like a second level Saiyayin!

I assumed that that's a pill falling from the bottle beside his right cheek.
