Huh. So we’re talking the demonically sweet offspring of Disneyland and Action Park, which is then crossbred with a gas stove. A few more safety barriers to stop the lawsuits when people die, and this park should be pretty easy to make profitable.
And another of our occasional reminders that Dr. Wilkin is, in fact, a badass. He may not be as enthusiastic about Princess Boot Camp as he was a few hours ago, but he IS going to go down that slope, and he WILL keep the tiara on, and it won’t surprise me if he takes it in such stride that it’s never seen or mentioned again.
You haven’t just won the Intarwebs; you’ve beaten it at Thud *and* Skyrim, fathered its beautiful babies, and wrapped them in the pelts of the Honey Badger, Chuck Norris, and Theodore Roosevelt.
Yep. I meant the flaming ski slope would be taken in stride. As it almost was – Tip does mention burns in the next strip. I will not be at all surprised to see the tiara reappear. Maybe soon. Maybe not for years.
I’m wearing a cute
Tiara!
And I’m off and heading down a ski hill
That’s on fire!
This cute but minute
Tiara
Helps me through the flames, I’m hoping we will
Not expire!
Though he’ll never admit
A bit
Of envy,
Nick is feeling left out!
He’ll pout
With spite …
He doesn’t have my
Tiara!
Mary says it’s crucial my tiara
Stays on tight!
Tiara! Tiara!
I love my tiara!
A princess I’ll be tonight!
Tiara! Tiara!
So long, sayonara!
I’m hoping I don’t ignite!
Ok… so technically “off-topic” for today’s strip, but because I’ve tried twice now putting up links to previous strips showing why I don’t think Nick was talking to GODOT in reply to those who think it was but my comments sit there saying “Awaiting moderator approval” I don’t think anyone has seen them….
I don’t think it’s GODOT and here’s why:
skin-horse.com/2013/who-spoke-on/
skin-horse.com/2013/one-level/
skin-horse.com/2013/at-a-time/
skin-horse.com/2013/but-for-years/
True, but that seems to be because Violet is remote controlled from far away and GODOT doesn’t seem to be able to reach that far. If the operator had been closer, GODOT could have affected them directly and made them think they were seeing words through Violet.
How close are they to Nick’s Helicopter body? Not that I think it’s GODOT, but I’ll play Devil’s Advocate here and point out a flaw.
Can I post in on Tumblr to talk about how awesome you guys are by showing that “girly” and “hardcore” are not mutually exclusive? (Aw, screw it, I’ll do it anyway!)

Add in Chernobyl in there as well. There’s tourism GOLD in this park.
I’ll admit to it. I’d go.
The snacks might not be the best, but the souvenir green-glow to your skin can’t be beat!

He’ll keep the tiara, and it will show up at some later point.
Checkov’s Tiara, that well-known trope of fabulous foreshadowing.
Chekov’s Tiara. Gah!

I, sir, am in awe.

Why is Tip holding the ski poles backwards?
Well, he she didn’t say which way the it sloped.

Violet had ulterior motives. I wouldn’t take what “she” said as gospel.
But wasn’t there a strip with Violet and Unity together “talking” to GODOT that does illustrate your point?
There’s a sequence of strips with Dr Lee and Violet in which GODOT itself directly says he can’t affect Violet.

Is there any kind of compilation of the story being told somewhere? It’s a bit difficult to read all these on a small mobile device.
Still wishing for this because I still don’t know the message.
