Petroleum ‘Pothetical #5

Filed under: Petroleum 'Potheticals — Tags: , , — greglandgraf @ 9:51 am

Last week I asked “What’s the mascot of the College o’ Hard Knocks?” From a mighty batch of submissions comes this week’s winner:

“The obvious answer? Jack Black”

True, so true, and congratulations to mikey for giving the obvious answer and seizing the Rectangle of Glory.

Now, time for a new Petroleum ‘Pothetical:

“What are the Pye Boys going to do with Sturdivant?”

As this plotline winds down, the Pye family has kidnapped Sturdivant Kleeb in hopes of collecting a major ransom. Unfortunately for Sturdy, his parents decided they’d rather have the money than their son (not an illogical decision, really), and the Wallet family isn’t showing any particular eagerness to rescue the boy who keeps snogging their daughters. So it seems that the Pyes are stuck with a somnambulist they never really wanted. Will this situation lead to a body in the ol’ ravine, or dressing him up in a frilly maid outfit and setting him to cleaning up the highway underpass, or what?

Provide your answer in the comments, and you may win next week.

It’s almost that time again, which means it’s that time again.

Don’t worry, it’s pretty harmless. But for those of you who play PMOG (the Passively Multiplayer Online Game), I’ve made a couple of missions you may be interested in.

One, Making the Comics Funny Again, is a general tour of comic snark blogs, which received “massive props” for the rhyme scheme used on lightpost descriptions. The other, Gasoline Alley, is a collection of resources related to, well, Gasoline Alley.

You’ll have to sign up for PMOG to take the missions; visit the About page to learn about the game and sign up.
