    Hm. Would “Rohypnol” have been too offensive to be funnier?

    What wine goes with Thorazine?

      “Fortified” would be my guess…

    At first I read that as “the taste of true love’s kiss” and thought “Even the AIs want him!”

    I almost read that as his “true love maggot.” I’m not sure if that’s bad or not, considering the way this universe works.

      In “Three Fingers” (Rich Koslowski’s somewhat disturbing comic book about “Dizzy Walter” cartoons) , there’s a little poster for a film starring Fly Adams and Millie the Maggot. Millie is a huge maggot wearing lipstick and a sailor’s cap.

    (TUNE: “Billie Jean”, Michael Jackson)

    Mary says “Lunch is through, right!
    Time to say good-night!”
    She says “You’ll be in a magical slumber like this,
    That your love … will awake … with a kiss!
    It’s a test that can’t miss,
    If your love … can awake … with a kiss!”

    I said, “Beg pardon, but I’m awake.
    How you gonna make
    Me fall into a condition of somnolent bliss
    That my love … will awake … with a kiss?”

     She’s slipping me a mickey, she tried to knock me out,
     She’s telling Gerald to buzz off!
     ”True love is even greater,” I hear her sternly shout,
     ”Than a quick lavage gastric!”
     Says this sarge made of plastic!

      Thorazine isn’t cool!
      It’s just a tool
      That Mary’s using on me
      To make me princess-y!
      Phar-ma-ceu-ti-cal-ly,
      To make me princess-y!

    Tip’s gonna get his stomach pumped. Mary can’t change that by getting all . . . bendy. She’s got the lights from the console to keep her, lift her up. They shine like . . . little angels . . . *thud*

      Did he just go drag-queen and pass out?

      If he collapses in this place, there will be actual birdies (mechanical ones) flying around his head when he comes around.

    Poor Tip. This is either going to go horribly wrong… or right… for him. Either way, I’m sure it’ll be hilarious for us. 🙂

    Tip falling asleep is not the problem. Who kisses him awake is.

      Yes, that is the problem–the awesome problem.

      I’m kinda rooting for Tigerlilly myself–“you will be awakened by true love’s funky, funky bassline” and all–but we haven’t seen her in this storyline yet, so that may just be wishful thinking.

        I’m kinda rooting for Sweetheart, myself, although I’ve been kinda sorta shipping the two ever since the lycanthropy storyline. 😀

        Given Artie from Narbonic, the idea of a sentient mad scientist’s dog with inverse lycanthropy isn’t too out there. 😉

    he didn’t eat much of it. he’ll probably get fifteen minutes out and be woken up by sweetheart’s lick of exasperated tolerance.

    Thorazine is an antipsychotic, not a sedative. It can cause some drowsiness. However, given recent events I wonder if it will actually make Tip weirdness-blind like the whimsy corp employees.

      Weren’t you listening to Mary? It’s a totally different apple! I’m sure it’s completely fine.

      The first generation antipsychotics used to be called “major tranquilizers,” as opposed to drugs like Valium. Enough thorazine and Tip could be knocked out.

      It’s a poor choice on the drill instructor’s part, but maybe she’s just not up to date on her psychopharmacology.

    Just as well anyway. Tigerlilly Jones isn’t available.
