[s]Valentimes[/s] Valentines Day issue (red ink)! I'm watching it right now.

EDIT: Once again, Teen Girl Squad's style had me laughing for no reason. I applaud TBC once more.

I agree. That was really weird.

Part of it seemed kind of forced, which is unusual for TBC. HOWEVER. The 'tiiiiiiines' race car thing was hilarious.

Good prize!

It seemed to go on for a long time, but it was pretty funny.

"Ow! My the fact that I was alive a few seconds ago!" <--Best "Ow! My blank!" ever.

Ha! I this is going to be one of my favorites. For some reason, I love the Wireless Wizard. Bonus points for Scifi Greg and DnD Greg making easter egg appearances.

Did anyone notice Class Prez getting killed? Wasn't that right exclusively for Teen Girl Squad members and regulars? New character on our hands?! Fragments?

Not too bad. I think I like TGS #11 better, but this one's definately funnier than some of the older ones.

I don't know how they does it but they does it. I just couldn't stop laughing. The funny thing is, last night my mom said "gag me with a spoon" and I had no idea what she was talking about.

Yay, yet another reason why TGS is one of my absolute favorite things on the whole site. :D

I can't even pick one part as my absolute favorite, but I loved "Is it voodoo?", the race car thing, "band names, band names", the whole TECH-NO-LOGICAL ROMANCE thing... aw heck, I'll just say I was laughing through the whole thing and be done with it :D

Ah, it's good to see What's Her Face come out on top for once.

The whole bit with Cheerleader trying to text-flirt with the Class President, only to get scolded by the Wireless Wizard and killed by the USB Dongle Goblin, amused me. And I can empathize with So-and-So's grammar & spelling pickiness. I can also sympathize with her getting TINES'd by a fork in a Formula One racer.

I less-than-three the Teen Girl Squad. :mrgreen:

"Tiiiiines! Tiiiiiines! Tiiiines!" Don't ask me why that was hilarious, but it WAS.

The Wireless Wizard was by far my favorite part of this, though. Since people text messaging from a few feet away really, really bugs me, I was completely cheering for ol' Wiz. And how ironic What's Her Face is the only one getting fought over... :P

But we all know The Ugly One would sweep the school by storm if she just got into her Hotgly One outfit.

Nice one. It's weird though, my brother was just saying yesterday he hoped there would be a new TGS today.

"Sometimes...wizards are so awesome...it hurts."
So true.

For some reason, that fork thing reminded me of an avy that einoo used to have. Weird.



Anyways, awesome toon, like usual. I also love the Sci-Fi/D'N'D Greg egg. Wizards being so awesome that it hurts, truely the most truthful quote ever.

It was OK, definitely a below-average TGS.

As for a rating....

1.5'D!!

Definitely best "Ow, my (fill in the blank)!" ever.

But I thought it was kinda weird. TGS usually tends to be kinda weird, but this was even weird for TGS.. I dunno. That's just my opinion.

They get more and more random each time... More animation each time too.

Tines, Tines, tiiiines.

I noticed that too. It's a bit odd, isn't it, for a hand-drawn comic to be animated on the paper? :P

Eh, he was in an early comic. So early that we tend to forget them.

I totally forgot about the TIIIIINES racecar, and the subsequent tire marks on So-and-So. Classic enough for an avatar. :mrgreen:

Do I get any sort of prize for being the first one to notice that, when you go to the toons menu now, there is a 'new stuff' page??

That was a really awesome TGS, for one of those rare moments I found myself laughing out loud, and that do you like "cloth" was the perfect touch. Yes, harder than ever to follow with so many characters, but I liked the "bandname" joke, definitely one of my favorites.

I also liked the "tiiiiiiiiiiines" car and "Is it voodoo?"

That was a pretty odd one. I'm famous now, though.
