#505; In which One cannot Let Loose

Comic Transcripts

EVERETT: Yes, sir. You had a complaint?
MALCOLM: I’d call it more of a suggestion.
Are you the guy to receive brilliant suggestions?
EVERETT: I do seem to have drawn the short straw.

MALCOLM: I’ve been in some pretty fancy public restrooms. Some have mood lighting. Others have creepy attendants.
Everyone’s got the basic plumbing needs pretty well covered.
But what’s the number one MOST BASIC thing all public restrooms should have, but NONE do?

MALCOLM: Really loud background noise. Like waterfalls, or jungle birds, or polka music, or all of the above.
Your restroom is a TOMB.
All hearing echoes of the guy three stalls down when he BLINKS.

MALCOLM: I can’t crap in a tomb. I can’t make any TRULY SATISFYING bowel progress if I can be HEARD.
EVERETT: Those of us who have to clean up after you would argue that that’s the POINT.

In addition to buying things directly from me, the normal way, my game Bolted! is also now available on Amazon dot com.

On that famous website, you can also get the Creature-Crafting Magnets Set, which is made of the same artwork from the game, but is just a weird little trinket (not a playable game).

My kiddo made the elaborate version below to show off just how many magnets you get in the set (it’s 150 pieces in all — this isn’t even all of them).

Also now on Amazon is my set of Multi-Purpose Greeting Cards — a full dozen cards with envelopes in a fancy, unbranded, foil-stamped box!

Event alert!

I’ll also be showing off Bolted! at Greenwood Games, an event in Seattle this Saturday:

Greenwood Games is a free, all-ages community game event that invites players to spend the afternoon walking Greenwood Avenue from 65th to 80th, collecting clues, cracking puzzles, and discovering games made right here in Washington.

Think of it as Pride Hop, ArtWalk, and the Gumshoe all rolled into one, except the whole thing is built around games and puzzles.

Local game designers will be set up at different places along Greenwood Avenue in Phinney Ridge (near Ballard). My specific spot will be the “Holy Mountain Phinney Ridge Taproom”. All the information about all the different games & venues is on the website!

(If you’re in Seattle generally but not free tomorrow, Bolted! is also stocked at Blue Highway Games in Queen Anne.)

Next week, I’ll be at Gen Con! I personally will be hanging with my buddy Sam Logan at BFE Webcomics, booth #1217… but I have it on good authority that copies of Bolted! will be available at the CRWN Studios booth, #2549.

Visit one booth! Then the other! The order…is up to you.
