I can almost hear the stacked logic errors weighing down on the poor girl's mind!

I hope that Millie will accept eventually though that some (and likely most) just need to talk gibberish, and that not everything will make sense, we just have to pick out the bits that do.

Afterward, I further hope that she'll use this knowledge to her advantage to develop her own variant of cockney rhyming slang.

Alright. I've heard every expression in there except for the donkey's years one. Although apparantly donkeys live a long time because Benjamin the donkey said that we'll never see a donkey die. Stupid benjamin the donkey.

Alright. I've heard every expression in there except for the donkey's years one.
Same here. I looked up the origins of three of the phrases:

http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-hap1.htm
http://www.yaelf.com/aueFAQ/mifbeesknees.shtml

And I'm pretty sure "dead as a doornail" is just going for alliterative appeal.

Watch out for Mrs. Mudd! :lol:
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

First and last frames are at different angles, the lamp isn't in "view" of the "camera" anymore.

My Friday face was lifted like a gold brick out of his bed because of the reaction Ms Mudd incited in the wee twist. Although I think all this wordplay can look like putting on the dog, if done nicely it makes me wear the yellow hose.
