Endtown by Aaron Neathery for April 29, 2020

You shouldn’t have done that Alan!

Sh*t has hit the fan or at least Alan’s face!

Poor Alan… I suppose I should have seen this coming, what with him being so likeable.

I’m reminded of The movie Aliens, when the marines flamed the Xenomorph victim, and what happened next…

Good thing this is black and white, or that would look a lot more gruesome.

“Oh Bloody Hell…..”

Proof that snap decisions can backfire on you…

Alan, what have you done?????

Hmmm… What if the blood we associate with bleeding gums isn’t ours?

And now things are really getting uncomfortable.

“Aww, get with it, Alan! Man, you kill me.”

And once again Neatherly blows my mind with something unexpectedly terrifying…

The proof is in the pudding; wait-that’s-not-pudding..!!

Oh my, incredible!

Alan whispers, “They’re not toothbrushes…”

great. Now they got an excuse to hunt everyone down. Thanks Alan.

“And now for something completely different.”

Murderer! Oh the carnage, the plaque!

Hal from 2001: “I’m Sorry, Alan, but you won’t be leaving this Reality alive!”

I don’t think Wally’s tail is ever going to unfrizz now.

Oboy, this just went south.

\\//_

Narrator: “And it was at that moment he knew he ****ed up.”

silently screams

…rut row Reorge…

Alan just made a fatal error.

I didn’t see this possibility coming at all.

Them’s the breaks, kid.

Seriously, would any of us have seen that coming? Keep in mind that Wally was once transformed into a cookie, and has a lower threshold of credibility for this sort of thing.

Oh boy. Now the entire flock of toothbrushes will try to murder our elephand friend here?

I just realized that Alan is pretty thin-skinned for a “pachyderm”. (Pachyderm definition, any of the thick-skinned, nonruminant ungulates, as the elephant, hippopotamus, and rhinoceros)

I think he broke something…

Rich creamy filling?

Cells in a body? Of a body?

They’re forward scouts preparing the coming of the toothpaste…

I’m kicking myself for not seeing it. They were dittos! Of course they were dittos!

In a world of teeth, everyone else looks like a toothbrush.

Oh, and gratuitous, “Ooh snap!”.

Use softer bristles to cause less bleeding.

I wonder if those so called “toothbrushes” were in reality eggsacs for some malevolent creature. :/

MEDIC !!! (Is there a Dental Hygienist in the House??)

When will they ever listen to the Chosen One? Sigh

In another vein, earlier, wasn’t it Alan who was looking at the toothbrushes on the ground and Wally telling him to ignore them and look at the “big picture”?

Hindsight’s giving me

Too much memory

There’s too much never seen

But it’s always there ‘cause it’s everywhere

Taking my own advice

Worked out for me nice

But now I come to find

The tricks we play with human brains

They don’t want to think about the other side

Is that grass just greener ‘cause it’s fake?

‘Cause that’s all that we’ve been told since we were five years old

Is that all we’ll ever know?

Hindsight brings me down

It keeps me on the ground

And though I’m never proud

I wouldn’t dare if you weren’t there

The thing with getting up

Feelings like giving up

Feels like not enough

You eat a crumb and waste a loaf

They don’t want to talk about the other side

Where the grass was greener than they said

‘Cause this doesn’t bring to mind what I’d expect to find

They must be colorblind

What about Canada?

What about Canada?

This paradise

Of pines and ice

Morning comes in freight ships while you’re sleeping

Bad into ideas was no surprise

We’ll wait ’till the wild has rights, then never lock doors at night

And kiss all those wars goodbye.

It will get really, really, really spooky and ooky when the other toothbrushes start keening…

Your next computer is not a computer. Your next toothbrush will not be a toothbrush.

Looks like Mickey’s been playing with the Sorcerer’s wand again.

How did Wally make the connection with the toothbrushes? Did he see that creature outside form from toothbrushes?

Could be I guess.

Oh, SNAP!
