Joey got up and took care of his toilet duties

  • Joey got up and took care of his toilet duties them turned his socks and shorts inside out so he could wear them another day. His T shirt had to be changed the stains went through
  • both sides, deep into his body and onto his soul. Poor Joey'd never heard that cleanliness is next to Godliness and his foul wardrobe had tainted his very essence. When he saw that
  • Pigpen had the same manner of filthy dress he realized he was not alone. The difficulty in their friendship was that Pigpen was a comic strip character and Joey was flesh and
  • blood and bones. After the third time Pigpen got soaked during dumpster diving, Joey came to the conclusion that dating a comic strip character was more complex than he'd thought.
  • At least he didn't have the Truman Show antics to deal with, like Jon & Liz. Joey wasn't sure Pigpen was really his soulmate, but Hobbes was already spoken for. Maybe The Far Side
  • would at least provide an interesting locale for the wedding. Billy, from the Family Circus, was to be ring bearer, but kept leaving dotted lines trailing behind him. Garfield had
  • to make sure to erase the dotted lines behind Billy from the circus so that the aisle could be clear when the bride walked. After all the preparations were made, the big day arrive
  • d. The bride alighted from her crystal pumpkin coach drawn by giant pink rats and rushed up the aisle whooping. Billy realised he was in love and sadly contorted into a sick rose
  • and fell onto the ground. The beautiful bride stepped onto the sick rose as she passed, the rose bleed red with a broken hearth. The rose faded and died, the bride kissed the groom
  • , and they were pronounced husband and wife. The spirit of true love from the essence of the rose invaded their hearts at that moment & they lived happily ever after.

    Hard to imagine it could go somewhere like that from reading the beginnings - four, I'll say that again, four years ago!
