That’s what I was thinking. This might not be Tigerlily-inspired so much as coincidentally Tigerlily-adjacent, but either way, they’re going to end up as cinion-cultists.
I did a search on Groovitron and found this: The Groovitron is a weapon manufactured by GrummelNet in Tools of Destruction, A Crack in Time, Full Frontal Assault and Before the Nexus. It is a floating disco ball that, when thrown, plays disco music that mesmerises anything near it to dance uncontrollably until it expires.
So, I give even odds between the King in Yellow and the Black Pharaoh himself actually being summoned when these two loons (yes, I know they’re possums, I stand by my statement) actually get their machine working.
Should that be “synch” or “sync?” (I suppose it depends on their doctrines and theology…)
They’re both correct. So it really just depends on one’s personal preference.
n’sync? Hope not.
Sink.
Hope not. The mothership can’t fly over a sink.
Synchronization or syncopation?
I can’t tell if Tip is wearing pantyhose or not. (He’s got great legs).
Tip, you’re a psychologist. Shouldn’t you have been asking a lot more questions before you got strapped into the thing that could’ve killed you?

Okay, make me smarter. I tried looking up “cinion,” but I mostly found proper names—nothing that made sense in this context.
Gah. “Minion”.

I don’t see Tip dancing.

Either that or they’ll get Earthworm Jim.
Yes, the near-coincidence between the latest Laundry Files publication date and this strip appearing is uncanny.
