I'd like to see Alien get more puns from literary canon. For a lit major driven mad by those stuff, it eases the mind.

So, Hookbill, I was wondering how much LSD you consume on a daily basis. One must be on an acid trip in order to write so much insane, brilliant, and just plain weird things. The Downer must be a product of drugs.

Hooky is too young to know what LSD is, it's the additives in Smarties that gets him high.

Hey, I'm a Pink Floyd fan. Of course I know what LSD is.
Where do I get my ideas? I steal them from homeless orphans.

So Hooky, this Floyd fellow you know, does he wear pink clothing or something, or is he another of your imaginary creations.

I suppose that would be Floyd the Pink, the sixth Istar; according to a very late and almost illegible slip of paper he missed the boat to Middle-earth and thus was never mentioned in the Legendarium.

Yes, with Ironic Sarcasm.

And maybe that's why he's running out of ideas, because of the new natural ingredients ones. (slightly more on topic)

It's time to get some news into your day!
Extra special wondrous thanks to The Elf Warrior for writing a neat story about the threat of Evil Mayo. Much appreciated! And now we see Peter Hampton head off towards Miss Collins' office. He meets someone on the way... Woot! Was that fun? Oh? No? Well, who cares? On Thursday we'll see the an episode that DOES NOT HAVE either the Phantom or Alien in it! Won't that be strange?

I must inquire. Why is it that some of the Downers and Phantom and Aliens back on the earlier pages of this thread are not there anymore? I rather enjoy reading old newspapers, but some of them are not there. It makes me very sad.

Urgh! Sometimes Tinypic takes them down for no reason. I'll have to go through the thread and find the ones that are down, by the looks of things.

Isn't Walmart by definition, evil? *hides*
Loved the progressive mini headlines. As for SpM, we write about him because he isn't here.

Don't forget to check back through the... The adventure continues on Monday with more laughs than you can shake an average sizes stick at for about an hour.

No indeed! I noticed that he had something orange crawling up his back in episode #19 and that his hands had already started to go in #15. They sort of shrunk into his sleeves. . .
By the way, our friend (or not friend) Barry looks familiar. Last edited by Laurinquë; 08-26-2009 at 10:11 PM. Reason: shrimp |

I'm feeling kind of ill at the moment so I'm going to head off to sleep rather than wait up to post this lot. Hope you don't mind.
Back to the adventures of Peter Hampton and his amazing life. Well, he think's it's amazing, but then, what else would he think? Don't forget to catch up on the latest P&A adventures! Otherwise you'll be late! It has all the fun you need and some you don't. Side effects may include; nausea, throwing up, fits of rage, nose bleeds, screaming, despair and chronic bowl movements. Come back on Thursday to see how Alien and Formy deal with the Soap Pope!

Ah ha! Go crab! You really just cannot help but love a crab with a top hat, he looks to very suave. It's no wonder the BWH considers him a friend, I would too if he hadn't clawed a hole in my boat.

The article was great, but the P and A this week was more amazing! It was great. I was cracking up... in the school library.

It was very amazing, but would have been even more amazing if Mr. SpongeCleanerGuy had "n00b#1" written on his shirt!
I heart Phalien.

Not double posted on this thread for a while. Must be my brithday... Wait... No it isn't. Oh well.
Now, after weeks of waiting, we get our first proper look at the elusive Miss Collins, owner of Beef Buses. She's also Alien's mother. If you're lost, you can check back on the previous episodes to make sense of all of this: On Thursday, Formy is continuously baffled by how Alien seems to be helping him cope with the Soap Pope. Oh the humanity! Poor Cardinal Mardinal, what will he do?

It's because people are too tired from laughing to post. Well done again, Hookbill!

Great Downer this week Hookbill! It was, er, lovely.
I should give my praise to Volo too, your levitation skills are improving! You'll have to give me a lesson sometime; we'll get on quite well I think, both of us being anile youths and all. And no Hookbill, there aren't any Downers you haven't yet insulted. |

Btw, if Volo were to meet with me privately (in a narrow alley behind the local solicitor's office) and make a small 'donation' to my favourite charity, all might be forgiven....

Maybe Alien's father is Phantom's father too! I'm guessing this because the bus company's ownership goes down from Phantom's ancestors to Alien's mother! That might explain why Alien lives with Phantom after he's dead.

What if Phantom is Aliens father?
TGEW, I think you are right. That sounds better than Phantom being a father.

Phantom would be a horrible father, "Say, you want something to eat today? Sorry, I just can't be bothered. I'm too busy being cool."

Alien's plot to trick the Soap Pope into thinking Formy hasn't blown up his church continues...
There are more episodes and drugs at the... PHANTOM AND ALIEN COMIC ARCHIVE THING! Come back on Monday for more adventures from JOHN FILLIS. Next Thursday we'll finally get a look at who Alien's father is!
