Title: At Home with the Tripod gods panel 1: garner, ba, and doors, standing around an altar Ba: No! NO, Ba says! Doors: Ach, what's wrong with pizza? Garner: If you have to ask, you're never going to know. panel 2: Doors: Ach, what's that even mean? Ba: It means- Garner: It means you're a neurologically hemoraging gooseberry, or at least on the intellectual level with one. Doors: Am not. Anyway, I want pizza. panel 3: Garner: I want curry. Doors: You always want curry! Ba: What Ba would like- Garner and doors: NO!!! panel 4: Doors: At least pizza is a kind of pie... Garner: Vindaloo pie would be an unspeakable culinary act though! Ba: Ba has an idea... Ba will go to the nursery school for some snacks while Garner and Doors make up their mind. Garner: Minds. Ba: Ba assumes Garner and doors have only one full mind between them. panel 5: (just doors and garner) Garner: Right, come on no-wit, we'll settle this in the usual fashion. Doors: Ach, thumb war? An' anyway, I'm at LEAST a half-wit! Garner: Well, at least we can agree on THAT point.

I have language problems with the last one, because I have no idea what either a "chug-a-thon" or a "tug of war" are. Otherwise, this thread has become a regular source of entertainment, and I so hope they get drawn one -not too far-day.
Chugging is slang for knocking back drinks - so a chugathon would be a drinking contest. A tug of war is when two teams pull on opposite ends of a rope. Whichever team can pull the other across a central line is the winner.
