Yep, that’s what I was thinking. “Oh I have an opin…yeah, I’m outa here!” He’s slid into a lot of interesting stuff, but deciding not to jump into that junk heap is definitely in his best interests.
It’s times like this that make me wish that “ninja smoke bombs” were a real thing. Not the little hissy distraction devices, but a real “throw it to the ground at your feet and FWOMMMPH-you’re gone” kind of smoke bomb. I can think of at least three times in my life where I could have used one.
Wait, you’re supposed to throw the vaccines at your feet to disappear from viruses?
Shit man, I’m too old to have been making that mistake all this time…
As a number of people have said here, there are a lot of reasons why business partnerships tend to be short-lived. IMO, the best way this can go is that Mick learns (or perhaps has absorbed) some salesmanship from Stacy before Alex buys Heidi out and fires Stacy.
Time to pack a bag, re-connect with that old buddy you haven’t talked to (or about) in years and see if you can crash on his couch a few states over. Smart move my man, smart move
Well, Abilene, Texas, is at 32.4838865N, 99.7363774W, so that would be around about 32.4838865S, 99.7363774E, in the ocean west of Perth, Australia, pretty much where the signals from that missing plane’s black box were heard.
(Re. the music video.) OK, so this is (in the genre) everything I like about the instrumental bits, and everything I dislike about the vocal bits. Who should I try, preferably with female vocalists?
(In the I-like-both category would be Evanescence’s Bring Me to Life, though most of the rest of their stuff is only OK.) TIA.
Honestly, listening to the intro part of that, I would have said maybe Mussorgsky or Bond but neither of those has lyrics.
If it’s soprano-fronted metal you want, my first nomination is Amberian Dawn.
Hrmmm. Erszebeth may or may not be your thing. It may depend on whether you understand her. In my case it depedns on whether I scroll down / ctrl-tab to avoid seeing the jumpy camerawork. I hate the jumpy camerawork. It’s supposed to be a song, not a first-person dance simulator. Oh, yeah, way better with a static image, no matter how hot she is!
Have you checked out Liv Moon? Not so metal, but that’s a very nice voice … when she’s not doing an atrocious job of the Phantom of the Opera duet, anyway. Ugh. Stick to Antonio Banderas for that one!
Hunh, and here I was thinking Mick was DUMB.

But noooooo, we got vaccines. Priorities people.

“… But noooooo, we got vaccines.” 😀
That might be the smartest thing I’ve ever seen Mick do in this comic so far.
Oh yeah. For once the gears in his mind moved fast enough to get him out of trouble.
Love his facial expression on panel three!
That may well be my favorite panel so far.
Discretion is the better part of valour.
Run Mick, Run!
Any man who tries interferin’ in wimmin fightin’ is gonna hae both o’ them jumpin’ up an’ doon on him in fi’e seconds!
Mick listening to his common sense? What is the world coming to.
“Exit, stage right…”
that’s Stage left… just sayin’ 😉
He went out the right side of the frame. While the original term is what you said the OP is more correct n this regard.
Stage directions are from the perspective of the audience, which is to say backwards from what they ought to be.
Actors! 🙂
Belay that, I’m confuzzled. You’re right. ( Stage right? House right? )
Sooooo, now’s a good time for that international holiday he’s been saving up for right?

I think you gave me part of that flu J.
Whoa… Mick’s not as dumb as he looks! THAT’S a surprise!
Hello, Qantas? Yeah, can I get a one way ticket? Where? Um… farthest place from Texas as possible.
Well, Abilene, Texas, is at 32.4838865N, 99.7363774W, so that would be around about 32.4838865S, 99.7363774E, in the ocean west of Perth, Australia, pretty much where the signals from that missing plane’s black box were heard.
So you’re sayin’ he missed his flight already?
He could still get to Perth. Though it’s full of old people, kinda like Florida.
Gun culture isn’t that great too.
Yeah, there’s that…
Just as long as he stays the heck off Malaysian Air… 🙁
I heard weather in Zanzibar is lovely this time of year.
But the real question is,
“what would Omar do?”
Beer, whore, dumpster, hide?

Or, to quote the Knights in Holy Grail, “RUN AWAY!”
Call that travel agent Omar used when he thought he sold dud .22LR ammo …
Good idea!
Sounds like a plan.

Also: ReVamp, some tracks more than others.
Yeah, this belongs here:

Some nice infographics on how big a loonatic the Feinstein is. http://imgur.com/gallery/K4RCxHG
Are you sure? It’s a picture of a dog clipped as a lion, claiming to be from a chinese zoo when I click it…
Given that Stacy lacks a character tag, I think Alex has this one locked up.
oops meant her instead of you
Meh. Sorry, but for female death vocals I have to take Anastacia Podnebesnaya: http://necrostellar.bandcamp.com/track/necro-stellar-orbit-of-transformations
*Smart* Mick!
