- "Death has no bedtime". Abigail sure takes that Clouseau reference seriously.
- She gets him again!
- Abigail Waxes Poetic as all her sadism Hard Work pays off
- Abigail's response to the fact that she's not turning into a gigantic caterpillar monster after what she assumes was a "botched teleporation" (imaginary adventure), just losing her baby teeth:
- Thomas' anti-cootie hazmat suit... And Janie "contaminating" him with the letter's cooties.
- "Hey, Gandalf. This is science fiction. Use your gun."
- Elizabeth secretly plays Mass Effect when no one's around.
- When Fisk and Elizabeth decide to have children. "My MAN'S under these clothes somewhere! I can SMELL him!!!"
- All of 217."Think of unsexy things. Nursing homes. Smart cars. Steve Buscemi."
- Fisk "retiring" his "not-a-family-room" couch.
- A momentary crossover between My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. "You can watch Ponies upstairs."
- This. Just, this.
- The wonder of bacon."Its like if candy were made of meat! Or if meat were made of candy!"
- When Aron and Beth return in 308. The Towel.
- We get a lot of these in the South Haven arc, most of them involving Aron and Trixie, who apparently can't hold her scotch well.
- Like when Trixie explains how she's not at all uncomfortable living in South Haven (a clothing-optional community), having been born and raised there. The little Sight Gag with her parents makes it funny:
Trixie: There's my parents. (Waves) Hi guys!(Cut to panel of Trixie's (just as naked) Mom and Dad.)Trixie's Mom: (Waves) Hello Muffin!Trixie (nonchalantly): Yeah, you get used to that, too.Aron: All gone!- "Oh god. Too much massage. ZZZZ."
- Followed by Beth introducing Trixie to scotch, stating its "kind of like wine," which turns out to be Trixie's drink of choice, convincing her to try a glass or two. As Beth explains that you have to "savor the complexities of the flavor," however...
- "... Can't... Feel my... Face!!"
- Which in turn leads to her getting drunk off her ass (or "completely blotto" as Zoe puts it, after recieving several texts from her), and marveling at Beth's hair.
- "You have... So much hair..."
- Some good natured sibling trolling between Janie and Thomas.
- "Well, it was worth a shot."
- "Go to where man is at his lowest[...] Offer him hope."
- What do they need the grill for?!
- "Picture time!"
- "I'll be in the den."
- Thomas teaching Charlie how to be a boy
- Everyone's reactions to Charlie's hair.Miko (who was about to cut her hair): Are you sure you want me to do this?
- The battle for the pool.Fisk (to Beth): Grab a drink, honey. It's getting good.
- '''I'll make a rug out of you and fuck my wife on it!!!'''
- "Mm, Cuddles!" ''*scoot, thud, thunk*'' "Hey?"
- The power of Next Gen. compels you, Lynne. The power of Next Gen. compels you!
- From the second South Haven Arc:
- Trixie's utter glee at getting to dress Aron in drag.
- Aron's insistence that he wear girls' underwear to complete the image after his make-over, and Trixie's complete shut down of it.
Aron: No panties?Trixie: No. Anyone who sees you in panties will know you have a dong.Aron: Yeah, but I'm kind of an immersion method actor.Trixie: You're not wearing my underwear, Aron!Audery (kissing Aron & embracing tenderly): Hey. You're getting a boner.- This is why you never let your friends borrow your phone.
- Trixie keeps stealing Aron's phone, mid-conversation with Audrey, to continually text naughty stuff at her.
Audrey: Aron and Trixie are funny. We should hang out with them more.Mary: Can you get Aron to wear that skirt, again?- When Trixie says "hi" to them before leaving to start her day, sans pants, of course:
Aubrey squints after Trixie as she leaves, eyes glued to her butt.Aubrey (coyly): Yeah, I'd pound that bare ass like a tent peg.Aron spit-takes. - The segues back to Lynne's story have a number of these as well, with moments of Self-Deprecation and Creator Career Self-Deprecation most likely playing a part in her struggles and annoyances as a webcomic artist and freelance artist.
- An all too familiar annoyance for creative people, or anyone of that matter.
- The downside of taking commissions as an artist? The potential for Squick.
Lynne: Why me...? - From the It's a Wonderful Plot arc, we have a couple of these as we see just what life would be like without Fisk in it.
- Beth is a complete, anti-social, nihilist who hates everyone equally (including herself), and channels that hate into grotesque, misanthropic artwork. And when she isn't painting she's working on her webcomic.
- When we get to Lucy, Fisk is prepared for the worst, listing a number of terrible possibilities until we get to the real change, which leads to a hilarious moment of What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?:
Fisk: So, what's wrong with my sister, hmm? Drugs?Angel: No.Fisk: Loveless marriage?Angel: No.Fisk (listing off on his fingers): Mental illness? Auto sales? Cam whore?Angel: Nope! She's dating a guy who wears a kilt!Fisk: Aw! AW MAN! You're just making shit up now! - The reveal that Brice (Sissy's husband) isn't seeing anyone, and only asked for an open marriage because he knew that it would drive her nuts, and that by making himself "available" to others, he'd be more attractive to her, flying in the face of her psychosis. The revelation that "men can be just as devious as women" is apparently too much for Elizabeth to take, as she just sits there dumbstruck while Fisk nonchalantly takes a sip of his coffee.Elizabeth: This changes everything.Fisk (unfazed): The need for sex brings out our best. And our worst.
- "Because mom!" "Because wife!"Elizabeth: Your saran wrap will be as tight as a drum! (Holds up saran wrapped bowl from out of nowhere as an example.)Sissy: How, did you...Elizabeth (continuing): You will be as a god!
- The "great mystery" of tumblr.
