Comic #23 - 23:02

If you are new to Ponyville, or just forgetful, lol, please read the following strips before reading the new one below, as it will then make more sense to you: #17 - #19 - #20

This week's strip is only one panel, as I wished to experiment a bit. :)

If only fish liquor, Gummy Mayors, and Gummy Crap were real!

Hehe. I like how Roo (he's the shop keeper, right?) has some chin stubble. :)

Hehehehe. I love the Wanted sign.

OMG! The signs in the back are awesome! My in-laws run a liquor store, so the Fish Liquor and Lotto signs cracked me up the most. The fine print on the wanted poster is good, too. ^_^

The inevitable day has finally arrived. Poor Minty. At least his hair looks good.

It's amazing how many details of the storyline you can weave into one panel! ^_^ (Roo definitely jacked up the price of fish liquor -- I wouldn't buy it for more than $1 a crate.)

LMFAO!!!!!! How the hell does he stay in business? LOL!

Poor, POOR Minty. If nothing else, your strips are a testament to the importance of education. *cackles*

How come CC didn't get a copy of that wanted poster? Hm.....

I *love* looking at the hidden goodies in the background.

Either way, I want some! *paws through change jar for quarters*

Hehe, poor Minty, the only place that would hire him was Roo's. Good thing his name tag says Trainee, because I wouldn't want anyone knowing my name if I had to work for Roo. (And he does look much older than before...good job)

Love the background signage, lol!!! If only Gummy Mayors were real...I lurv gummy fruit snacks! (I wonder what Sweetberry would do to them if she bought Gummy Mayors?)

LOL!!! I love it. :D Minty's got a broom of his own too! Hee! He looks so bewildered, with the little 'Trainee' badge pinned to him... And 'Roo just gets crustier by the day, doesn't he? *g*

And I love the background details, like the 'Wanted' poster (obviously Cotton Candy hasn't seen that yet! *g*) and the bag Gummy Mayors...

Fabulous. Simply fabulous. :)

Awww..... he had to succumb to the inevitable. Poor Mint. A stash of Gummy Mayors in a Wife Mug would sure make for a nice Christmas gift. ^_^ That Kimono poster is begging for someone to draw a mustache on it.

How did anyone convince Roo to put that poster up? Anyone coming in would get decked with a broom.

The badge reminds me sooooooo much of being 17 years old and working at a local tourist attraction. Some maniacally idiotic tourist would always say, "Har har! Good ta meet ya, Trainee! What's that short fer?" Like I hadn't heard it a million times...

And if I find that monkey, I'm not turning him in. *plots*

Mmm...fish liquor

Dude, everything about this is funny as hell!! :D
I about died when I saw the "Gummy Mayors"... and Fish Liquor! OMG Fish Liquor!! Buck fifty a crate! Reward of personal satisfaction!! *cries*
Poor Minty. He even gets his own broom. <3

Also, the nametag! They do that at TARGET, they give newbies namebadges that say "New Team Member" on them... if it's not going to provide useful information, why have it?! So not only is "TRAINEE" funny, it's true to life. *headdesk*

Does Roo have a favorite broom that has lasted him for years? or does he need a new one fairly often? (depending on how busy his store gets)

XD OH MY GOD! This is one of my favorites. I LOVE Minty's expression and the wanted poster. AWESOME. X3

I want some Gummy Mayors and Yummy Crap.

Roo's neck is awesome. XD Bony and wrinkley and great.

Awesome detail as always. <3

My first thought was that Razzaroo sounds very much like Wallace Shawn, in my head, saying to Andre the Giant: "The minute his HEAD is in view, HIT IT WITH THE ROCK!"

'Gummy CRAP'?! That's only slightly more disturbing than 'Gummy Mayors,' actually, and slightly less disturbing than 'Fish Liquor.' Urgh! How does Razzaroo stay in business with his approach to customers and his stock? Mob ties? ;-)

Kind of makes me wonder what the bag behind Minty reads.

A bag of Gummy Mayors, please. ;)

LOL! Poor Minty. What a way to end up :P
I love the wanted sign in the back (for this, that and the other. Have I mentioned that the monkey rocks?)

And Minty got his very own Broom! :D

Yay, broom for Minty! He looks so thrilled. :D

Gummy Mayors! And is that a dangerous bag of pure sugar behind Minty?

I wonder if fish liquor would be good in margaritas...

And I so want to see Minty whack someone with that broom. :D

::cackles gleefully:: I'd want to work at Roo's simply so I could smack my customers! ::contemplates bringing a broom with her to Target::

I really like the background detail on this strip Spoosh. Particularly the wanted poster. (Is that K'iono and his monkey on there?)
