But I was surprised how most of the funniest lines were really context-driven, even if they appeared non-sequitorial. Still, some do successfully stand alone.

Ah, but Faye’s therapist had a truly wonderful-in-an-awful-way last word in the Feb.1st strip, albeit way too long to become a t-shirt:

“Just go out and bang some dude” is one of those phrases you will never hear a psychiatrist say. Other such phrases include “I think the heroin is doing you a lot of good,” and “jesus, no WONDER your mother never loved you.”

Meanwhile, back at Dieselville, Stevens pats himself on the back on coming up with a rather obvious phrase that apparently had never been used before on the Web. “Necessity is the invention of Your Mother.” Now let’s see how long until this shows up as #2 for that search.
