    Yeah, tell us Braces. We’ve been waiting to hear this for months.

    WAIT A MINUTE!!! Where did Shirl(ey)’s sister come from? I guess Braces has a long parade of people coming in and out of the “abandoned construction site”?

    Geeze, Liz is slow! Dangerous ELCTR SNGLS, Liz - haven’t you been paying attention?

    Where is good old Sam with a snide comment to liven up the strip when we need him?

    Wow hench-woman. If you wake up in the morning, eagar to make fun of a Lochner character/plot/drawing, you should really join this board. Way to emasculate your boss. Poor Braces was responding to an unsolicited email that promised to make him “larger” while also addressing his constipation issues, and he accidentally ordered a large robot instead. Most friends would let a simple mistake like this slide, but not you. Good for you hench-woman.

    I see you have also grown a collar since yesterday’s strip. Which of the following ridiculous options explains ths: (1) You magically grew a collar while heckling your boss, making you the “bigger man”. (2) Braces turns the machine on, and you go home and change shirts before asking him what he is going to do with it. Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion.

    Liz seems to have found her left arm, but lost her right one. Who poses like that when they ask a question? Oh bleeep, now I am doing it…

    “Well, it’s like this. My mother didnt like me and my father was never at home. I used to get beat up at school alot and making giant robots was the only thing that ever made me feel loved and appreciated. Oh, and I have a little dinky.”

    Wow! Someone’s a bit cranky today. Can’t we all make fun of this nonsense in peace?

    To the owners of the Dick Tracy franchise: I have no artistic ability, couldn’t write a story if my life depended on it and have a limited grasp of the English language. I feel that qualifies me to take over the strip should you be looking to make a change. Thank you for your consideration.

    Braces’ constipation is about to cause him a stroke. The dialogue needs to continue as such:

    Henchwoman: “Tell me how an expensive robot makes you feel better.”

    Braces: (Thinking and whispering to himself) “Let me count the ways.” And then continues out loud - “I’ll tell you how…. First of all, in the morning, the robot is easier on my eyes than you are. Second, it doesn’t talk back. Third, it does floors, windows, and my shirts perfectly. Fourth, it cooks, and for closers, it doesn’t complain or get headaches.”

    He’ll be happy as soon as he eliminates that henchwoman.

    Oh, and takes something for that constipation.
