OOTS #534 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up.

(Also, note that there's another new Erfworld.)

[Raiser Blade]

There is a typo in Roy's first speech bubble. Otherwise nice.

Not shooting down yet of my another plausible theories.

It sounds incorrect to me.

[Szilard]

Cool, I knew staying on the forums was a good thing.

[baltor85]

Wow, psychics are getting lamer and lamer each day...

As are Roy's Archon's jokes.

[Woof]

Buahaha... poor dog :D

[Courier]

Very puny So is the Roy-ghost storyline coming to an end? I had hoped someone would be able to see him - I guess all our speculation looks pretty silly now!

[Nathan W]

how come my first pst on the page got delid it said
"awosum secont post
i dont get the number one psikick joke
"

[Castamir]

Wow, psychics are getting lamer and lamer each day...

Uhm, no. It's just people who are a tiny bit less gullible nowadays.

The psychics stay put.

I was gonna mention the "Hey, you’re supposed to be checking the cart, not shooting down yet of my another plausible theories." thing, but Raiser_B1ade done did.

Maybe Roy's diction is suffering from being a ghost.

Anyway, great strip. Bathroom humor never goes amiss. Not if you're sitting down anyway.

[Quorothorn]

Wow, this is the shortest amount of time between a comic being posted and me reading it: awesome.

I must say, despite it being a joke you can see several miles distant, the psychic thing was quite funny. Nice to see the Archon again, too. Only issue was that typo, but no matter.

Fixed now.

[baltor85]

Because of all the typos?

No, they just don't allow posts that have the main focus on like "Awesome, ____ post!"

In response to your question, think about what the dog was sorry for. Next think about other meanings for "Number 1."

[Albonor]

Ha ha! My prediction will manifest!

[Rama_Lei]

Madame Xanadu...Nice reference Rich, though it's her pre-crisis counterpart

[warmachine]

I've always thought of psychics as fraudsters, rather than providing a service.

Poor Roy. Guess he'll have to research why no one can see him.

[Lira]

Poor Roy. :P

Good strip, I laughed out loud at the punchline.

[Surfing HalfOrc]

Hmmm... Will Roy have to wait until the Team gets to Julia before he can communicate, or will he ask Eugene for one more bit of advice? Afterall, Eugene knew how to communicate with Roy...

Maybe the Epic version of a Sending Spell?

[Yendor]

And after all that, Roy has to go back to his unbearably smug father. Poor guy can't catch a break.

[Tyris]

Madame Xanadu? Does she, perchance, have a stately pleasure-dome?

[Shades of Gray]

Maybe no one is really psychic? The only times people have claimed to be psychic is Roy as a joke, and the person who cannot detect Roy five feet away.

The Psychic is a lie!

[Mojique]

Maybe the dog has problems with his castration also in the afterlife.

[holywhippet]

Ok, so what exactly would cause a dog to stay in limbo and not be able to move to it's afterlife? Did it take a blood oath of vengeance against a cat or something?

[Szilard]

It was probably just trying to contact the material plane just like roy.

[SteveMB]

Wow, psychics are getting lamer and lamer each day...

Heh. At least a Victorian medium put on a half-decent magic show. Nowadays, you just get newage babblegab.

Getting back to the comic, I had a hunch where the "psychic" bit was going, but the final punch line... well, it's a good thing the cat had gotten bored and jumped off my lap first.

[Aurorax]

Arrrggghh. Was hoping that the plot was going to move forward...

[Mad Scientist]

Alas, poor Roy. It looks like he'll have to wait for that stupid spell to wear off before anyone can hear him!

[Raider]

Would an animal technically go to a plain when he dies? Sorry if it's a newbish question.

[Ikialev]

As are Roy's Archon's jokes.

Yay. There was a joke? I didn't noticed. >>
Poor Roy.
Or, Rover.

[fractal]

Anyway, great strip. Bathroom humor never goes amiss. Not if you're sitting down anyway.

And if you're about 10. I'd rather have rules jokes, thanks.

So, short of advice from Eugene or an encounter with Julia, Roy seems to be out of luck. Will he watch Haley or Elan next, or will something else come up?
