How to Deal with Ideas That Make You Uncomfortable

Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the next comic will be a rerun. Properly warned, ye be, says I!
No, I'm not going to use Thanksgiving to create a cheesy segue that leads to my standard message of gratitude to those who use my Amazon Affiliate links (US, UK, Canada).

Love the jazz hands. This is how I make every important observation.
JAZZ HANDS!!!
Also, I've been looking into a deodorant stick style butter dispenser. Thoughts?
Hmmm . . . ‘How to Create a Cheesy Segue’. You may have stumbled onto something there.
I now have the frightening image of Terry Crews daintily applying lip balm.
Butter applied like a deodorant stick is a brilliant idea! It would save valuable seconds while making toast.
@TheMortallyWounded: The deodorant-style butter dispensor already exists. It's on Amazon and everything. Too bad you won't live to see it, apparently.
@Scott: I was going to correct you, saying that the quote is "Fairly warned, be ye, says I," but then I remembered where you worked, and that's where your version comes from. You poor man.
Missy gives a whole new meaning to "cocking her head."
I haven't seen it on Amazon, but I have seen it on Instructables. While some may say that "there is nothing new under the sun," I like to think that "great minds think alike."
This is probably why I shave my head and wear a goatee, in addition to keeping a wardrobe full of black t-shirts.
I try not to skip ahead in the comic, but I saw the Jazz Hands and got very excited. You do not disappoint.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Deodorant style butter dispenser? Why would I want butter on my armpits? :)
I just thought I should point out that the shading on Missy's head in panel 2 looks like the Sriracha rooster. And that now I'm hungry for something spicy.
Panel three may have the largest number of great punchlines for any comic ever. Wow oh wow.
I recently saw an ad for a chili sauce which - and this seemed to be a perfectly serious claim - was not only a delicious addition to things you planned to put in your mouth, but could, if greatly diluted, be sprayed on plants to kill harden pests.
I'm not sure if this has already noticed,
but Missy has a cockarel in her hair. (2nd panel)
Panel 4 caption is something they've been using in advertising since the '60's - that I noticed...
As for pepper and garden pests, it repels them, rather than killing them, and it's not effective against squirrels. The ones in my yard must be cholos - if I put hot pepper on some plants and not on others, they eat the peppered ones first.
or how about a lip balm / hemmoroid relief product?
Has anyone else seen this?

I think I smell an idea for Basic Instructions merchandise.
panel two: Missy for the win - again
Another Panel 3 of Win!
