MythTickle by Justin Thompson for April 25, 2011

A long climb up. Quit complaining and get started.

And that’s why Boody really needs those wings!

Somebody give him a kick in the can - that would help him get up those steps

I don’t see “your mama” but Justin does not waste time with random drawings. I am sure the message is significant but cannot figure out what it says.

something? something? fly crawl (before) fly

Khoofoo? Khufu - (Cheops) Placenta - Quail - Horned Viper - Quail.

“You gotta learn to crawl before you can fly”? On the other hand, since this IS a repeat, does anyone remember if this was explained the first time it was published?

Are you supposed to try translating Trademarked things?

Hmm, the Great Pyramid? Wasn’t the Great Pyramid covered in a smooth casing of stone and only revealed the stepped understructure after thousands of years?

I like how Dudley patched up his broken heart–but then went into a dark grey funk at the thought of hundreds of really big steps to climb.

So does Dudley actually climb or does he “Q*bert”

Thanks, JP, that’s it exactly.

However, I must say i am disappointed -

I expected Justin to pun in hieroglyphics.

I dunno, I thought Khufu trademarking his name and putting it on the base of his pyramid was kinda’ funny. That’s OK, as long at it makes me laugh. So much of this stuff is really just self-amusement anyway. :)

Actually, back then, the thing didn’t look like a staircase. It was covered in smooth marble, which was stolen in later years to skin other buildings.

Just had a vision of Dudley jumping over Qbert critters. Should be interesting.

Watch out for snakes…

What could possibly go wrong with catching Ra bees?
