This comic has hit the final low for me. I just thought I would say that the quality of the humor has been in an intense plummet since late last year, and I’ve been waiting in vain for a decent arc for months. The jokes are stale, the animal characters are gathering dust, and frankly, I’m sick and tired of this whole deal. It pains me to see the strip going in this direction, as I’ve been a faithful fan for over three years.
Those words are like the authorization codes for Nuclear weapons
It should’ve been obvious but it was so obvious it went full circle
Damn! This comics keeps getting better! Mwahahaha! Go, Larisa! Show them some “prevention”! 😀
@ ZMAR:
SO, judging by the comment by “Don’t Know, Don’t Care”, it would seem that some share the view that everything’s been going downhill for a whilenow. Out of curiosity, how long have you been reading this webcomic and how much of it have you read?
This punchpanel is the greatest.
Underage lesbian pyromaniacs forever – oh wait, Larissa is aggressively heterosexual. Why don’t we have a word for an underage seductress?
This ask for an epic wallpaper! ♥_♥
@ NewEraOutlaw:
I don’t like to see any one come to harm,but there are some lessons that have to be learnt the hard way! Too many people expect everything to be safe and in perfect working order without any wear and tear and so make no effort to protect them self and other around them.
Some H&S is good BUT too much becomes dangerous as people stop thinking for them self or switch off as soon as H&S is mentioned.

Oh, right.
Pyromaniac lolitas forever.:
Larisa’s Journal. May 12th, 2015: Bear carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and fire safety will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “Only you can prevent forest fires!”… and I’ll whisper “no.”
@ Brian:
FIRE FIGHTING can be thought of two ways.
Larisa has lots of experience using fire to fight, though she doesn’t have much experience trying to put out fires
Like letting Jack The Ripper play piano in a New Orleans cat house.
@ Milky:I think you made your point.

Haha yeah, that’s what I was thinking too. After all, the only 100% surefire way to prevent forest fire is the get rid of the forest altogether. Larisa is way ahead of everyone else!
This was posted in may SO META IT HURTS
I remember when LArissa used ice in her first appearance
@ Milky:
Was going to say that your straw man argument is kinda lame, but that last statement was really genious.
Obviously, Larisa failed in her duties.
@ NewEraOutlaw:
You do realize that mist if not all of these comics are a commentary in the mille ial generation, and takes place when they would be adults. If you think about it this comic is very appropriate to young generations’ views on destructive forces and their prevention. It does not need to be humorous because it is in comic format – it only needs to be effective
Yes, we need know nothing more.
@ Novil:
Actually Larisa prevented all future forest fires…she did this of course by burning down all the forests.
Theoretically, if there are no more forests, then there can’t be any more forest fires…
wait a minute . . . there is a talking bear and nobody cares, but woo wants nobody to know he can talk.
@ Novil:
Your comment makes me think that Smokey the bear picks a person to prevent forest fires kinda like how the Slayer is chosen to stand alone against the darkness, the demons and the vampires.
This time he has chosen poorly.
Well this’ll be good. :p
@ Neospector:
Several hundred? Dude. 60 RPM is 1 revolution per second. If the wheel is several feet in diameter, that’s already flying. Several hundred? To come up with a meaningful tangential velocity or the centripetal force we’d need to know how large it is or at least how far from the center of rotation the kid is. Defeating safety equipment not only is stupid and dangerous but potentially tortious. This strip mostly takes place, let’s not forget, in the Sue-nited States of Ameri-wahhhh! If anyone gets hurt or otherwise damaged, on or using your product, service, or facilities, geez-us-kryste!
Ever heard of an “attractive nuisance”?!? That’s where your property gets broken into, and you’re liable if the person ILLEGALLY breaking into YOUR PROPERTY AND TRESPASSING is injured or otherwise harmed because something on your property or the property itself was soooo enticing that it’s YOUR FAULT HE BROKE IN. Some safety equipment is really only there to cover the hindquarters of the owner or manufacturer, and disabling it could expose them to legal liability which in turn means an increase in cost to EVERYONE WHO USES THE SERVICE to cover the increased costs of insurance or payouts so… Yeah, there’s that.
But let’s not forget, folks, it’s a COMIC STRIP and not go losing (or gaining) respect for FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. I thought it was hilarious! An excellent, apropos of nothing side gag to the main strip that would have been hysterical even if all the “Larissa is a pyromaniac” comics had been purely a setup for this, and totally worth it.
If you’re too damned sensitive to handle a comic strip that contains even a hint of reality, do us all a favor and go read Garfied or Family Circus, you Brady-Bunch Bottle-Bearing bytchie little baby!
And for your own sake, avoid Family Guy, American Dad, and South Park, as you’d obviously be unable to handle the adult themes.
@ NewEraOutlaw:
You are, by far, the least evil person I’ve ever seen on the internet. You’re also the most boring.
@ Name:
However from my quick research attractive nuisance only applies to trespassing children, not any random thief.
Oh, no. Good intentions. At the wrong subject. I can just SEE how wrong that could go when talking to the pyromaniac. 🙂

Selfish? How did you come to that conclusion? As far as I can tell she did that for her daughter.
Children could get hurt? OH, NO!!!
Guess what? That’s what may happen when children AND parents are careless. But that’s the parents’ responsibility. If they deem the playground too dangerous for their children, they shouldn’t spoil the fun for everyone else but simply keep their own children in their safe home, keep them away from other children (who could possibly hurt them too), thus making them anti-social wrecks over the course of the years, get them a game console, some egoshooter games (anything goes, as long as the possibility of anyone possibly having sex isn’t mentioned), an NRA membership and some guns (the more, the better). As anyone, whom the Republicans allow to call himself a patriot, will be able to tell you, nothing could possibly endanger your children as long as they are sufficiently armed – or something like that.
(Please note that I’m not against egoshooter games per se. It’s always a combination of factors that gets lives ruined and/or innocents killed. But coddling your children beyond a certain point seems like one of several good ways to start the progress…)
Easy to surmise. Yes. And also completely wrong.
I seem to remember that Larisa did that to Zoey as revenge for something Zoey did to Sandra. Your argument is ridiculous. By that logic anyone fighting back against bullies would be evil. Including Cloud who defends weaker kids against bullies. Yes, if that isn’t evil beyond measure…
But what’s more important: What makes you think you have the right to decide that someone is evil just because they have lost your respect? That’s hardly the same thing, you know? (No, you probably don’t.)
After reading your comment I definitely don’t want your respect at all. (I would probably feel incredibly dirty.) I guess that would make me evil as well. Evil and proud of it.
@ Milky:
I would agree with every one of your points – except for the bikini model example: Bikinis don’t disguise much – except for the most important parts of course (but I’m reasonably sure you didn’t mean that).
LARRISSA DESTROYED MY HOME STATE?!?!?!????!?!,
