- The Hand of God: I’m very unhappy with your performance lately, Woo!
- The Hand of God: As the star of this comic, you have to be funny ALL OF THE TIME, not just two, three times a month!
- The Hand of God: But in my infinite kindness, I’ll give you one last chance! If you do something extremely funny in the next strip, you can keep the job.
- The Hand of God: But if not, you’ll be replaced by Tom, the talking toast!
- Tom, the talking toast: You’re toast!

To cue a cetain Muppets movie. ‘Dead Tom.’
Not to point fingers but….Oooh….Nevermind!
@ Tfeth282:

Don’t stop Sandra and Woo!!! D:
I have to know what happens next with Cloud and Sandra! 😀
I couldn’t bear the name: Sandra and Toast :l
@ LupisLight:
Agreed!! plus i got to see what happens between sandra and cloud! 😀
Bullshit, he’s in the comic title.
It’s either him or no comic at all, haha
Look out, here comes Tom!
I don’t think eating a talking toast is going to be funny.
…AS funny anyway. Hand of God said he needs to be extremely funny after all (the humorous punchline of this comic, btw, was the idea of being replaced by a sentient toasted slice of bread on legs).
Earlier example: Toast by Streetband (1978)

Poor Woo.
I can’t believe I waited until you advertised on my site to read this! I love this comic!
@ Ellert0:
During the My little pony series (and before that) A lot of people were compaliing and threatening to leave due to the lack of actual “Sandra and Woo” in “Sandra and Woo”
I don’t think the story needs to be FUNNY ALL THE TIME, but recently, when the gags haven’t been acidic and unkind, they’ve been non-sequiturs or peculiar innuendos. There haven’t really seemed to be any that were regular funny, or uplifting, or existing just for the sheer exuberant joy of it.
that’s not toast, it’s a sandwich
@ Pinwheel Ol’ Doom:
Really? because I’m pretty sure this was a not so subtle comment to all the pony complainers who were threatening to leave the webcomic because they didn’t like the last arc.
So if woo wins wat will god’s hand do to tom the talking toast?
I have to say I really have enjoyed your comic. (Having recently read it the whole way through) I also like the quote you currently have by Rinoa Heartilly. I apologize that I couldn’t think of much else to say, oh I can say that Larisa is my favorite character here. Hope all goes well so you can keep up with this wonderful webcomic. ^_^
In the words of Randal Munroe, “I’m so meta, even this acronym”
I want to see more of Tom.
The Hand of God represents the readers whom we’re not impressed by the art style enough to let the writing go?
seems running out of ideas?
Heavy: Get back here sandwich!
Tom the Talking Toast: Who?
*Nom nom nom*
That statement is just wired enough to go from randomly dumb to wierdly hilarious. XD @ Kat:
How NOT to do meta-humour.
Based on the average funniness of all woo and tom’s lines out of 10, i rate woo a 7, and tom an 11. I vote for tom!
