- Sandra: Larisa was even weirder than usual today.
- Cloud: What did she do?
- Sandra: First, she asked me lots of strange questions, for example how I’d defeat a 40-ton excavator in a duel to the death.
- Sandra: And then she tried to read my medical records! … Can you think of anything more bizarre?!
- Cloud: Hmm…
- Cloud: Yes, I can.
- Ye Thuza: Yuna! Get rid of this Black Hole in our living room carpet this instant! Or dessert is off the menu for a month!
- Yuna: But mom!
How do ANY of these kids define “bizarre” anymore?
No matter how weird you think your life is, someone else will always have you beat.
Is that better or worse than her cold fusion generator and reverse entropy engine?
Worse, way worse. Neither of those are liable to suck up the house or explode with the force of a nuke (depending on the size).
Ladies and Gentelmen, I present the child genius that couldn’t get a maths mentor because she failed at figuring out what 13×17+3^2 equals.
Uh oh. Larisa ought to take lessons at being discreet, because at this rate she’s gonna blow her cover soon.
David: What’s this?! Is that a black hole?? …Why isn’t the event horizon spherical? Why isn’t it evaporating due to Hawking radiation? And what sort of gravity gradient is that?! I think I’m going to have to look at your notes!
Yuna: But the inverse square law is boring! And when I make a black hole, I make it look BLACK, not black-body-at-x-thousand-kelvin! 😛
>:=)<
Yuuna continues to defy everything we know with her experiments.
Get the feeling that God and the Devil (and EVERYBODY else . . .other than a certain raccoon goddess. . . ) are . . . gonna get reamed by the might and power of Yuna.
I’m surprised that house isn’t running off of Dark Energy yet.
What the heck is Yuna holding? It looks like a miniature brick cornucopia or maybe a slightly off center ice cream cone.
@ ghostwhitehorse:
Seriously, WHY would God mess with this family, kinda like poking a sleeping tiger.
Does God really think he can deal with Yuna, Ye Thuza, Larissa, Woo, and a Raccoon Goddess who will probably be willing to give a little divine intervention to a great friend of raccoon kind.
*Yuna breaks down the wall of reality to create a portal between earth and Hevan, allowing and army of raccoons led by Woo, Larissa and Ye Thuza to enter Gods office*
Thomas J. God: ” I’ve made a terrible mistake”
This is why you don’t tell Yuna to ‘vacuum the floor and get rid of the trash’; she will do it with style!
Yaay!!! Woo is back!
…A black hole that size should have destroyed the planet already.
Didn’t they mention a black hole in the rug on a previous strip? 😛
Also, I have to say, Larisa isn’t very good at this…She needs to be more discreet. She’s not an idiot, I’m pretty sure she could do better at this whole “secretly throwing God’s plan off track” thing.
Says the girl who inadvertently summoned an aztec god of death due to a cereal change.
I see Yuna has brought about the end of the world. Well… we all saw this coming from a mile away.
finally Woo is in the strip, missed him so much after his long absence… :3
Don’t think of it as a naked, all devouring, singularity but as a free in-home vacuum system that you’ll never have to empty or change the bag or filter on ever.
@ Thisguy:
Writer please make this happen.
Anyone else think panel 4 offers a good solution to the problem from panel 2?
I’m more surprised that the black hole didn’t already suck in the entire neighbourhood.
A black hole that big would have a mass of at least 6.74*10^18 kg (about the same as a medium-big asteroid), and at the distance Luna and Ye Thuza are from it, it would excercitate an acceleration of about 450,000 m/s^2 (45,000 times bigger than Earth gravitational acceleration).
So either Luna found a way to anti-gravity, or that isn’t a black hole in the astronomical sense, but just a hole in the carpet.
@ Wanderer: True, perhaps she’s found a way to limit the influencce of gravity by increasing the effects of Dark Energy locally. Not likely to actually be possible, but this is a cartoon after all.
Only 40 tons? Then she didn’t plan to go up against the Dreaded Bagger 288, at least…

All relative, my friend. There’s the “strange but still within normal parameters” level, then there’s the “never seen it from this person before”.

Shhh, don’t blow their covers~
Meanwhile, Woo shows that belly rubs equal personal nirvana
I notice Sandra didn’t mention Larisa’s suggestion to buy lingerie. Perhaps she’s saving that surprise for later.
@ Thisguy:
Thomas J God is certainly not omniscient and therefore should not be omnipotent either. However, chance is that, yes, he can indeed deal with what you mentioned just fine.
@ Interamna:
@ Interamna:
I had the same thought, it looks more like a normal hole than a cosmic black hole. Perhaps yuna has simply made a device capable of instantly boring very deep holes through the ground.
@ Interamna:
Or what we are seeing is just the event horizon and not the actual black hole.
@ Autoskip:
230, innit?
For me Yunas abilities/skills/academic merits/world-dominating-super-villain-prowess crossed the lines. it’s not funny anymore. What’s next? She accidently kills God or collapse the fabric of the universe?
Then again it’s my opinion, feel free to disagree
@ servantofNorthia:
If it makes you feel better then take the possibility that Yuna made a hole in the floor in more believable manner such as playing with matches, and that the dialogue is just an inside joke in the family relating to her superior intelligence. 😉
The black hole could be related to the portable one made by Acme and used by the Road Runner after taking it from Wile E Coyote. Doesn’t affect gravity but just makes a hole in any object. In this case there is a new way to get into the basement.
It’s a cartoon it work on ACME logic, and physics.
Now you’re thinking with portals, Looney Tunes Addict!
I think Larisa needs to consult a psychiatrist, check herself into a mental health clinic. At least till the hallucinations stop happening and she no longer see’s Satan telling her to do things. I am currently 100% sure that’s what’s happening.
@ Kodyack:
Then your 100% wrong, because Satan, along with a large amount of other mythological beings, actually exist in-universe.
ACME logic, remember the lemonade!
Something more bizarre?
How about a talking raccoon?
Yuna has created a portable hole item.
@ Blitz the Comic Guy:
1. Am I Awake?
4. Does the day contain a vowel?
R. Is time still valid?
Lungfish: Can I perceive time?
That simple Lungfish-point list defines bizzarity in the world of Sandra and Woo. You’re welcome.
I wonder? With ACME logic are the characters age appropriate for whatever conversation they’re having?
You know. For a comic named Sandra and Woo, we haven’t seen Woo in a while.
@ Luke:
He’s in panel 2.
Ye Thuza: “Yuna! Get rid of this Black Hole in our living room carpet this instant! Or dessert is off the menu for a month!”
Prediction: Yuna designs the best dessert dispensing machine the world has ever seen…
…AND it runs on ‘free energy’! 😀
@ Agarax:
More like the lingerie thing was totally normal for Larisa. XD

… or maybe on Cloud’s action figures…
If the dessert is good enough, he might even forgive her.
I’m expecting Yuna to create a portal to the Gaia universe eventually 😛
