I kinda need to hear the terrible pickup line, though.

I am 99% sure that's not what Bobbi says in the 2nd panel in the OG collections. Something about "when was the last time you slept in the same bed?"

ffs?

Yep! I remember from the original books a bit about what they were doing on their honeymoon, but this part of the arc is all new to me!

And here's me with just the OG collections like some kind of SUCKER

"Properly" and "should" are doing a lot of work here.

Hail my gimlet brother! I've gotten back into these in a major way over the last couple of years for the exact same reasons.

Is it time for an Al/Al ticket?

Ok, I have to admit, I'm missing the reference. Is this a Dr. Pepper "I want to be a pepper too!" thing?

Where the HELL is my triceratops?

I learned TI BASIC on a Texas Instruments 99/4a back in the very early 80s. Wrote some programs from magazines, saved them on tapes, and went on to automate D&D character creation in an attempt to rules-lawyer an all-PC dwarf army.

Fun fact, though: TI BASIC lived on until at least the late 90s, on the TI graphing calculators that everyone taking Algebra/Trig had to buy -- or borrow from the school. I wrote a surreal choose-your-own-adventure game on my calculator, large enough that because of memory limitations, you couldn't open the file to edit it without deleting another, ancillary file.

And since you could transfer programs via a proprietary cable, I put that game on every school calculator and as many of my friends' as wanted it. It was still there years later when I visited.

Bobbi! ❤️
