Chapter: Comics
A few summers ago we got a small electric ice cream maker. We had fun making some delicious batches of ice cream when we first got it. Then we discovered it could also be used to make yummy slush drinks. Just pour in your favorite soda and 15 minutes later you have a nice slushy drink that you can eat with a spoon. It turns out that the sugars in the drink are what keeps the slush soft instead of just freezing into solid ice. We found this out the hard way when a sugar-free grape soda almost broke the machine.
Also, if you are not following me on Twitter then you are missing out on my thoughts about soda, cookies and lawnmowers. Mmm cookies.

damn the drink thing sounds cook…. we got an icecream attachment for our blender last summer and have yet to use it….also where did biff get those goggles? i want a pair
The true edge of that knife must be electron thin and invisible to the naked eye.
Mmmm… Split Atom Soup. I have a great recipe for it, but it’s still an official Navy secret. Too bad I can’t share – it works great!
OTOH, slushy drinks… Ooooh, good idea!
Kwik Trip used to have Mt. Dew slushies. I would risk running out of gas just to make it the extra few miles to a Kwik Trip. Last time I got there, they told me they’d stopped selling them. I almost cried.
I’m gonna take a shot in the dark and say “apocalyptic cuisine week”
@Space Butler: That’s actually true of almost all kitchen knives but especially so for the razors people use to shave with. They already ARE electron-thin and invisible to the naked eye; thats why they dull so quickly, something that thin wears down right damn quick.
Mmm, i must remind myself to get a slushie soon. :p
hey Chris, have you ever seen the movie Young Einstien? i suggest you watch it. this biff comic SO reminded me of it
“now where’s that chisel”
that is…. a damn big atom.
Or am I missing something?
And that’s where my black and decker countertop fission reactor comes in handy.
Makes it right quick!
And dispose of the leftovers in Mr. Fusion!
@EnviousLuna
He’s holding tweezers.
That soup would give new meaning to the term “explosive diarrhea”, I’d bet.
Homemade ice cream is always better than store-bought.
That does look like one huge atom. Steam-punk goggles FTW!
Truth be told I think it has gotten to the point when I enjoy reading your comments MORE than the comic itself.
This particular comic was pretty entertaining though 😀
Question: Can you still nuke it in the Microwave?
Nice steampunk goggles.
I know I am nice and late posting this but my theroys for the theme week:
– Sub atomic partical week
– Food week
– Referencing things in old comics week
– Homemade week
– Nuclear week
– Split week
– eye ware week
I was thinking, “Word replacement week.” And how do those goggles help him see something smaller than the wavelength of light?
Meh, gamma radiation gives me gas. Pass on the split atom soup.
I want those goggles… Why doesn’t my computer come equipped with Wonka-vision!?
