#140 - One Last Time

Friday, April 11th, 2008

I forgot to mention this when I first put the comic up. While doing a daily scan of comics I noticed 2 in particular that I think are having a go at me. They’re denying it of course, but I’m sceptical. The first one has way too many real Swedish words and the second one, well you be the judge!

    fine, i can go to bed now. :-)

  2. Yahairah Says:

    Oh god. He’s screwed. Most probably she has a hidden camera and then she’s gonna sell it and cause more trouble to Anders and Maria. Oh, if he does it… the little bit of respect I’m holding for him will just fly out the window for good this time >_

  3. Eric Says:

    OH MY GOD AAAHHHH!!

    *drama chipmunk here*

    Hopefully she’s not the stabbity type of town crazy.

  4. Chuck Says:

    Well, he CAN’T be that stupid. Really.

    Really.

  5. humanoftheyear Says:

    i remember telling myself that around january, chuck. prove me wrong again, anders… i loves the drama!

  6. Jess Says:

    Guh– he slept with her? Anders, really now.

  7. Morgan Says:

    He shouldn’t do it, but last chance sex is always so good. It’s even better than make-up sex!

  8. Caroline Says:

    Has’nt anyone said ‘Bork’ yet?

  9. Elizabeth L. Says:

    Before I felt bad for Tina, but now I kind of really dislike her.

  10. Holly Says:

    *BZZT BZZZT BZZZZZZT* BAD IDEA

  11. Ashley Kromarek Says:

    He will. Then she will talk him into taking her home with him. Because hes a jackass.

  12. Hec Says:

    Hey, maybe she will stick a piece of wood between his ankles and go to town with a mallet.

  13. irrational_moon Says:

    Bad bad bad idea. He should bail–stay ANYWHERE but there tonight, even getting hate glares from Johan would be better than staying there.

  14. JMB Says:

    Hec: Misery! (the film version)

  15. Joanna Says:

    It’s a trap!

    I am hoping that Johan will bust in and save the day before Anders does anything life-ruining.

  16. zee Says:

    no no noooo!! don’t get sucked in anders!!
    he didn’t sleep with her already did he?? it doesn’t look like it but i want to be sure…

  17. Indigno Says:

    I wouldn’t bork a girl that just horked.

  18. Jessica Says:

    Hellll no he shouldn’t, but in my experience the prospect is tempting in those kind of one-sided relationships when they draw to an end. I’ve seen it from both angles.

  19. zee Says:

    oh yeah i kinda blanked on the horking. horking after borking… not so good.

  20. Amanda Says:

    Heh, I just did this with my ex… one last time inevitably leads to the next time… it’s always awkward when he tells you “oh, i’ve got a new girlfriend” afterwards.

  21. Hec Says:

    JMB: Nice.
    hey, I bet Tina smacks Anders in the head with a knäckebröd!

    (No Googling allowed, try to guess what it is.)

    Ewww the hobbler.

  23. katie Says:

    knowing anders he’ll probably do it

  24. Angel Says:

    I really feel bad for Tina…she must have had a really crappy life, even though on the outside everything looked perfect…

  25. Dave Says:

    Interesting how looking at the scene through the headboard makes it look like Anders is caged. Intentional, I presume?

    Re: Other comics having a go at you. Hilarious! I didn’t even notice the reference in SGR until you pointed it out (I’d probably just assumed it was another of John Allison’s Brit pop culture references I don’t get), but it’s definitely there.

  26. Brendan Says:

    This reminds me of the night I broke up with my first girlfriend. Once we’d talked it out and everything was clear: BAM! She was all over me like slime on Peter Venkman. I calmly explained that I wasn’t going to change my mind, but she just wanted some of me before it became unavailable. I totally understand what Tina is doing.

  27. Christine Says:

    Sad. I’ve been in Tina’s place, where she think she loves him but doesn’t understand its just desperation and a fear of being alone. It isn’t love, its dependency. I grew out of that finally, but it seems like Tina has been stuck in it her whole life.

  28. Chris Says:

    *bork bork bork*

  29. Ashley Kromarek Says:

    Welll, she is crazy, so it probably is her version of love…

    I totally was wondering about the SGR today and definitely had ALM in mind while reading it!!!

  30. christina Says:

    Oh come on now, Anders. Really?

    And that whole wah wah wah I love you schtick? So totally going to come back to bjork him in the end, so-to-speak.

  31. DmitriNeilovich Says:

    So, waitaminute here. Something’s just occurred to me. Are you telling me that the Swedish chef was singing about fucking all this time? The Muppets should’ve been R-rated from the get-go? I’m… so disillusioned…

  32. Annika Says:

    I would guess that it is the last night before he leaves. Don´t think he has slept with her, otherwise she shouldn´t be asking for it?

  33. Annika Says:

    probably he took of his t-shirt, since it was “horked” on ;-)

  34. JAPONfan Says:

    I give 5$ that Anders t-shirt will say “I borked and was horked”

    Split sex is better than make-up sex. I bet that Tina want to give Anders blindfold and then invite hunchback to bork Anders.

  35. Kai Maera Says:

    I can’t say anything for the first comic, but I can vouch for Scary Go Round. Lots of social references, language things, and I think someone pointed out on the Helvete Bjorn (I can’t use pronunciation stuffs) strip, it’s fashionable to have a go at other countries. …it was just a matter of time before that country was yours.

  36. Sam Says:

    Poor Tina…She is getting a *little* irritating now though, so I can kinda understand where Anders is coming from on this one.

    And I’m sure SGR wasn’t having a go. It’s our british humour. Consider it an homage!

  37. michelle Says:

    i agree with those that say if anders goes through with it my final shreds of respect for him are out the window…and he’ll deserve whatever he gets (i.e. secret films released on television or whatever - which maria chances to see just as anders tries to get her back!) but possibly more interesting is tina possibly already being pregnant. i think she horked bc she’s preggers and despite what the country might think of him when it all comes out on tv with two pregnant women and no way to support them, other women will still want anders. ugh.

    i also missed the joke on anderslovesmaria when i first saw the sgr strip! that is hilarious - milford should move in with tina next - he’d be down for sloppy seconds in a heartbeat!

  38. Joy Says:

    I just hope she didn’t poke holes in any condoms (if they even use them). But we know Ander’s track record with pregnant women.

  39. Opuli Populi Says:

    Everybody loves the long tetris block. It’s funny because it’s true.

  40. Rachel Says:

    anders is still totally wearing a shirt, but TINA looks like she took that sweater off before crying on him. having been the crying one before i am BEGGING anders not to do it, whether her intentions are to get it one last time or blackmail, if he cared about her at all he wouldn’t do it, its just a bad idea all around.

  41. Mirnavela Says:

    Yea, Anders is still wearing his shirt, but it seems that Tina is naked.
    Well, I suppose Anders can still bork with his shirt on…can’t tell if he’s wearing pants or not!

  42. Lukas Says:

    The current Beaver and Steve guest strip contains some horking (hörking, even) as well. Coincidence?

  43. Madonna Says:

    Ahahahahaha.

    I love that more people hate/are annoyed with Tina now.

    I know crazies when I sees ‘em.

  44. Mimi Says:

    all rise for the national anthem.

    there’s a rooooooad high abooooove and the eagle fliiiiies with the dooove and if you can’t be with one you looooove honey,
    love the one you’re with! love the one you’re with! doo doo doo doo do do doo doo!

  45. Rene Engström Says:

    Lukas: I think not!

  46. keith_m043 Says:

    I don’t think John Allison is having a go at you (Sweden, maybe). In SGR (and the comic before it, Bobbins) he has presented a rather interesting viewpoint of a number of countries including Wales and Iceland. My favorite bit was about how christmas is celebrated in Iceland ( http://bobbins.keenspot.com/d/20001117.html )

  47. GobbleStabler Says:

    Really?
    REALLY?
    Cmon Anders. Pull Up Your Tube Socks. And Dont Tap That.
    No.
    Seriously.
    DONT.

  48. Jackie Says:

    This hits so close to home. Wow.

  49. Mandy Says:

    I love that the characters in this comic are just as selfish, weak and insecure as people usually are in relationships in real life.

  50. Bluebird Says:

    Stumbled on ALM from Sam&Fuzzy.
    Started reading from the beginning…

    I’m hooked now.

    Monday is so far away!

  51. Genevieve Says:

    He’s already screwed (forgive the pun please), or at least a chump. How the hell did she get him into the bed already from the kitchen?! Or was he trying to be a “nice guy” and take Tina to her room because she’d vomited?… Uh, either way, she seems to have Anders pinned down on bottom. Anders, Anders, Anders.

    Possibly Tina will castrate him!

    Hec: I don’t know what “knäckebröd” is, but since I’ve heard a lot of German from my sister, I’m going to guess some kind of unleavened cracker or bread? Like tortillas… or matzo!! (HAPPY PASSOVER YAAAY)

  52. Kate Says:

    @DmitriNeilovich:

    Yes.

    That’s right- the Muppets are JUST as inappropriate/totally awesome as Avenue Q.

  53. Mary Says:

    o__o I donno about the first one
    the tetris blocks do not particularly strike a cord with me
    I read sgr though, and that is so funny! hmm~ I hadn’t thought of A

  54. Laura Says:

    The bed frame makes him look trapped behind bars. Heh. Poor Anders… but you put yourself there! ^_^

  55. Alisa Says:

    I dunno about the Eegra one but I think SGR was definitely smirking in your direction with that Swedish national anthem thing.

    Also, Anders…MAN.

  56. libbydibby Says:

    @ keithm

    ( http://bobbins.keenspot.com/d/20001222.html )

    “first, though, the giant robotic bjork head will sing our national anthem….”

  57. Rick Says:

    50 points to any more posts that can use the word “hork”, or an alliterative equal.

  58. Holly Says:

    John Allison’s skillz have come a long way. I didn’t even know he’d had an online comic before SGR.

  59. Andy Says:

    I love your comics. Keep up the amazing work.

    tina is aiming for anders babies.

    When will he learn that you don’t stick your dick into crazy chicks?
