Pyrrhic victories

that should be “Hellmont”

Your organ ics are getting acu punctured for sure

This doesn’t really do anything for your migraines, but it will make you forget about them for at least an hour.

Cactus makes perfect.

Cause of migraine cessation: excessive blood loss which led to death.

To be followed by sitting on a porcupine for an hour.

They also sell products for exfoliating his skin, like a loofah he can use in his shower.

I suggest Mr. Tidwell and the cactus both have a glass of wine first.

Shouldn’t he worry about… leakage?!

In order to get the full effect, you have to roll your body around the cactus, since it isn’t big enough to cover you in one application.

What a prick!

3rd grade level

HA! lol

He looks like he already has!

And you got your license where?

ping pang walla walla bing bang!

Of course, after that you’ll need a spine adjustment. Which we can offer for an additional fee.

There may be some side effects.

Cereus-ly?

yeah… he’ll have a whole lotta other pains to think about!… (ever get stuck by even one cactus spine? you’ll never forget it!!)

Bleeb is staying where it’s safe. :)

Referred pain. Try it, it works! Like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. It feels great when you stop!

A self-help clinic.

Maybe a nice firm handshake first? Hiya Bleeb! :)

It would be pointless to avoid this problem.

Ah yes, the nexus of Eastern and Western medicine. Happy trails, to you…

Tidwell may have to drink some water afterwards….in case he leaks

Ah yes, the Hurtz Donut method of healthcare.

No more crazy than drinking bleach. I guess we should make him secretary of HHS.
