T-Rex: Alright dudes, listen, it's time to MAN UP. It's time for us to become more CULTURALLY MASCULINE.

T-Rex: It's time to CONFORM TO WHAT STRANGERS THINK A MAN SHOULD BE!

T-Rex: Perhaps you need to take a leadership role in something, or perhaps there is a challenge you have failed that you must now succeed in, because that is what MEN do.
Dromiceiomimus: These seem like something a woman could do equally as well, if not better!
T-Rex: Perhaps now it's time for you to MAN UP and change our cultural perception of gender then??

Utahraptor: So toughness equals manliness then? Success is a male attribute now??
T-Rex: Hey man, don't look at me!

T-Rex: I'm just the reporter here. If people walked around saying "LADY UP" to mean "TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS ALREADY" then I would be talking about that!
Utahraptor: Okay. I'm going to LADY UP and say that from now on!
T-Rex: I sincerely wish you luck!!

Narrator: SOON: TROUBLE 4 UTAHRAPTOR
Off panel: I said it was time for me to lady up and clean the bathroom and then get some groceries!
T-Rex: *gasp* So sexist!!
Off panel: You were supposed to spread the new saying around! Come on!!
Off panel: It's TALKING.
Off panel: THAT IS LIKE 100% OF WHAT YOU DO ALL DAY

aw geez, aw geez

December 1st, 2010: This comic where T-Rex and Utahraptor invented the best greeting cards ever has somehow BLED INTO OUR VERY REALITY:

Also also! I woke up this morning and Joshua had graphed the length of the archive text on this here comic, with data binned into months, averaged, with error bars representing certainty! It looks like this and clearly shows an explosion in loquaciousity around 2006. INTERESTING.

One year ago today: seriously tempted to put out a whole line of these novels: "CLASSICS OF WESTERN LITERATURE: THE ODYSSEY, NOW TOLD AS IF IT WAS THIS REALLY LONG COMMERCIAL INTERRUPTING A TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES CARTOON, AND AT THE END, THE TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES CARTOON STARTS UP AGAIN". the best part is, i get to novelize a ninja turtles cartoon!
