I thought of trying to write Joyce’s “heartfelt string of ridiculous euphemisms” for you all here in the commentary, but that’d just take the magic out of it, honestly. It’s best to imagine to oneself.
GOSH DANGIT TO HECK SHOVE YOUR MOTHERSTUFFIN’ HONKY TIGHTY-WHITIES RIGHT ON UP YOUR BUTT OPENING CHESTERDRAWERS
That’s some genuine Frontier Gibberish!
Cholma Johnson is right!
Now all someone needs to do is write a webpage that generates a random string of “Joyce swears” every time you refresh it. Would make for an interesting sig…
There was a “fudge” in there also, if I’m translating correctly.
No hanky-panky in the string of euphenisms?
Wouldn’t Walky going missing be considered Government business or did SEMME getting shut down mean he’s no longer connected?
A little of both I’d presume? I mean I’m sure he’s still “connected” in the sense that there are probably a lot of government agencies watching him (and all the other abductees) making sure the country doesn’t have rogue superhumans running amok. But he definitely doesn’t work for them and as such him getting in one little car accident isn’t gonna cause a government freakout.
Nah, we got the “heartfelt string of ridiculous euphemisms”: it’s ꩜#★
We’re so gonna run of euphemisms someday.
Aw, atpoundstar, it won’t be a good day when that happens.
Ah yes, the Rubberband Man principle.
She borrows from Nick Zerhakker.
I think Joyce might be the living personification of Nick’s profanity filter.
and Zodon (PS238, not Power Rangers) and everyone in “The Good Place”.
“It’s best to imagine to oneself.” I beg to differ. I still love the bit in Terry Pratchett’s Night Watch with the Sergeant that couldn’t swear but still managed with stuff that just sounded right.
“You sons of mothers!”
Jason Chesterfield is a Bongo-Butt Michaelwarner. He skedaddled on my friggin’ fiancee. And he said his moral high ground was THIS BIG
Sal knows ‘zactly how big Jason’s moral high ground is.
(It’s not really that big.)
My favourite euphemism is “purple-headed yogurt dispenser”…
“Mille milliards de mille sabords!”
I imagine Joyce’s “heartfelt string of ridiculous euphemisms” in this strip must be somewhat similar to how Dumbiverse Joyce used to avoid swearing.
Perhaps Joyce should get some swearing lessons from Sydney (Grrl Power).
