JEFBOT.98_Chain Reaction
A couple strips back I promised I wouldn’t have Xinda, “punching, kicking, spraying, poking, stomping or stabbing anything or anyone,” for a while. Well, doing what she does in this strip doesn’t count as any of those things, so I figured it was fair game. Besides, I felt this was a cautionary tale that needed to be told. You might think that puking into someone else’s napkin and then putting it back (even accidentally) would be something that everybody knows instinctively not to do. You’d be wrong. Welcome to the Schuetze Family Thanksgiving Dinner of 2007.

You had to be there.. or maybe lucky that you weren’t.
November 28th, 2008 at 9:42 am
yes, i think it’s better that the readers weren’t there! from the look of these comments, seeing it in comic form is bad enough!!!

If I didn’t have a steel stomach, i think I may have hurled at that. Loved the depth of field with the turkey - and the gravy boat is a really nice touch. As always, sir, well played.
November 28th, 2008 at 10:33 am
thanks, eleventeen. glad there was no hurling.
November 28th, 2008 at 10:51 am
Oh wow. This is pure gold. (And quite gross all at the same time. Good times.
November 28th, 2008 at 11:33 am
heh. thanks, Spanky. “pure gold” and “quite gross” - it’s not every day that both of those terms are used to describe the same strip. i’ll take it!
November 28th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
oh my gosh… no way did that really happen…
Ew. Ew. Ew.
*Read this while eating dinner*
November 28th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
sorry about that, Tomix. i probably should have put a disclaimer telling readers “Do Not Read While Eating!” and unfortunately, yes, it did happen.
November 28th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!! YOU PROMISED!!!!!!!!!
November 28th, 2008 at 12:56 pm
there were no promises about “vomit” being off limits!
November 28th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
Oh goodness. I laughed so hard.
This made my day.
What a horrific experience.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
horrific indeed, wraith. imagine how my brother-in-law, ted, feels.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
On the last panel that guys mouth looks like something gross!
November 28th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
well, if you define someone else’s vomit on your own mouth as “gross” then yeah, you’ve got a point, seth6.
November 28th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
haha now THAT is funny!
November 28th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
heheh. figures you’d like this one, jhorsley3.
November 28th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
I.. oh. oh my no. oh god…. BLLEEAAUUUGH!!!!
Hilarious.
November 28th, 2008 at 4:38 pm
also, your sister seem awfully thrilled that you posted this. classic brother move! but watch your back in the next few weeks…
November 28th, 2008 at 6:00 pm
i love that in your comment you threw up, but still thought it was funny, CitizenJed. heheh. and as you can guess, around linda, i’m always watching my back!
November 28th, 2008 at 10:12 pm
I just threw up my entire Thanksgiving dinner from yesterday…. Somehow, I think that’s a compliment to your strip, bot. Wait, I have to go and throw up again…..
November 28th, 2008 at 10:33 pm
throwing up once is quite a compliment, Michael, but throwing up twice!? - that’s just humbling.
November 28th, 2008 at 10:44 pm
Oh my god! That’s horrible! I hope your sister is feeling better. I hope everyone is.
November 28th, 2008 at 11:33 pm
i don’t think we’ll ever feel better, shan. ever.
November 28th, 2008 at 11:55 pm
THAT IS DISGUSTING!!! GROSS, FOWL, and JUST NASTY!!! Very nicely captured Jefbot. I felt the chunks well up in my own throat!
November 29th, 2008 at 6:33 am
ooOOoh! chunks, even!!!
November 30th, 2008 at 8:54 am
The most disgustingly brilliant strip yet. It will haunt me forever.
November 30th, 2008 at 10:33 am
ha! “disgustingly brilliant” - i may have to use that on the cover of the JEFbot book. thanks, PTG!
November 30th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
mann, that is SICK!
Thanks, now i cant finish my stick of bueno chocolate =_=.
November 30th, 2008 at 8:33 pm
again, yeah, sorry, Jazzy K. i guess i need another disclaimer: “Do Not Read While Eating Bueno Chocolate.”

i admit this strip does deserve all those w’s, Mr Mojo.
December 1st, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Ewww, that looks absolutely GROSS, yet really cool. I hope everyone’s all better and isn’t throwing up anymore. The orange stuff on that dude’s face looks like it’s ALIVE!, or at least bubbling.
Since your sister sounds absolutely THRILLED that you posted this, I suggest you become a diglet hobo and avoid your town like the plague until Christmas Eve.
December 1st, 2008 at 5:48 pm
this actually happened last year, hanakitsunechan7, so we were all on our toes this thanksgiving. also, i like your suggestion, but i might actually have to become a dugtrio, so i can watch my back!
December 3rd, 2008 at 1:28 pm
This year I kept hold of my napkin throughout dinner. Great strip, but in real life it was not funny. Nice how you can look back on it and laugh. I’m sure Ted still can’t . Poor Ted. Too bad I couldn’t keep hold of my Pom. Martini. “Someone” had their lips on it.
December 3rd, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Ew, that’s gross x_x
December 5th, 2008 at 3:44 am
[...] emails and suggestions on “How to Burp” you readers have been sending me since the last strip. My throat has been feeling a bit weird lately, kind of like I have something stuck in it, either [...]
December 18th, 2008 at 2:23 am
darn….but wouldnt spoil my dinner though…i just keep on eating
December 18th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Ew….
December 31st, 2008 at 8:11 pm
