You've won my heart and my money, Driscoll. This is my favorite strip yet. It hits close to home. I think it's safe to say I love you right now.

I think all of us have felt the burn of futon hell. What is interesting is that we feel that burn BEFORE we start lifting that sorry excuse for a mattress.

Look at panel five. We all know what thoughts are going through his mind at that point.

"God. Damn. Futon."

Oh, I know how he feels. I have to move my futon upstairs for my cousin, but I keep procrastinating it because I feel like Mr. Owl in panel 5.

Oh yes...carrying the futon diagonally up 4 flights of dormitory stairs during move-in weekend...because it won't fit on the elevator...futon angst should be in the DSM-IV

You're so bad at handling a futon, you could argue that it sleeps on you.

Yeah . . . the set up was there, so I would have been shocked if someone didn't throw that out :P

Who started that joke, anyways? I cannot rest until I know where it comes from. Or I get my mattress through the doorway and onto the floor. Whatever comes first.

Trivia note: my mattresses are already in place. This has been a joke.

Are you trying to find out about Yakov Smirnoff? How some comedy bit he started in the '80s ended up being an internet "thing", though... that I can't answer for you.

Holy dang, that was Yakov Smirnoff? I saw that guy once and he was LEGENDARY. Thanks, dude. I regret that I only have one plus to plus you with.

I don't think Steve would be of much help anyway. Claws do not have a positive effect on futon mattresses.

Also congratulations! You deserve it.

Steve wouldn't claw it, he'd set it on fire.

I'd like to reply to point out that this was a great call, because in a couple of comics


*Spoiler alert*

*omg close your eyes, people that spend time reading all the comments per strip before they move on to the next, hmm maybe that does not happen? Well maybe. Just to be safe.*


HE ACTUALLY DOES SET IT ON FIRE!! Sort of.

Owls are better suited to the job; instead of having claws, they are more talonted.

I hope he's not crushed by the task, as he'd make a rather unorthodox owl pellet.

I sat for at least 5 minutes failing to think of a pun for owl pellet. But my, I like the word pellet.

Sure, a pun has to come naturally, it's not like you can com-pellet.

I feel your pain, Mr. Owl.

I think we've all ended up on the wrong side of a futon mattress sometime in our lives.

Don't worry, someday the world wont look so bleak.


Someday.

Yes...and sometimes "wrong side of the futon" is decided in terms of "right vs. left" rather than "above vs. below".

Fab (+76)

And in some trans-dimensional scenarios by terms of "completely evil and fueled by corrupt overlords vs. shining utopia of happiness and laughter"

...Or is that just me?

What I love most is that Daisy and Cooper are so calm. Not sure what is better: panel four (again with the "sound" effects (love it!)) or panel eight We've all been there in panel eight.

Its probably happened a few times before, it could take him a few hours to muster up the strength and courage needed to take on the futon again.

Futons are 100 times better than foldaway sofa beds. Sofa beds all have that bar that runs across your lower back that was designed during the inquisition and can paralyze your lower extremities for up to three weeks after one night of fitful "sleep".

It's too bad the Owl of Cancer can prevent many a youth from smoking, but is bested by a futon mattress. However, I'm sure we've all wrestled a futon mattress and lost.
