DIY Liposuction
There are a lot of things you can do yourself these days. And some things you shouldn’t.
(This comic strip was previously published on March 29, 2010.)
Last month our good friend Debbie Adams made a Wombie birthday card for me featuring her adopted Wombie, Tink. Tink put the right number of candles on the cake, too. Deb does artwork in many different mediums and styles, which you can see on her art blog.
Oooooh this could end in tears .
Hmmm but wombat fat might make quite a bit of money . Money= chocolate = more fat ….circle of life
Would that work? Maybe I should try it after all!
You have beaten me to the Wombie spot again loon but it’s okay I have brought enough chocolate and wine gums for all of us to enjoy 🙂 Happy Thursday Loon 😉 xxxx
Woohoo Androgoth …. It’s arty time
That’s PARTY time
Party time? I’m in!
I want Party …big time. have been away from civilization too long. i want PARTYYYYYYYY
We need to have a big welcome back Soma party! We missed you!
Why hellooooo there stranger 🙂 Nice to see you here in Wombania snacking on all of our yummy chocolates 🙂 xxxx
I’m not a stranger. I’m the puppet master 😉
Yeah Soma, you need a great big party. We missed you.
I always like BIG parties Loon 🙂 xxxx
Especially big chocolate parties!
Wow a party, Yes I’m in too Loon 🙂 xxxx
It’s the day after Thanksgiving. It’s Friday. And it’s Black Friday too. It’s party time!
I like to paint, but I can never find enough arty time myself.
I don’t know. We never got to try it!
I don’t think that Chris is convinced in Binky’s excellent invention but never mind he will live and learn 🙂 No chocolate for him today…
My inventions seldom get the respect they deserve, but I’m used to it.
You deserve more that’s for sure 🙂
Perhaps you could have a word with Chris.
But if it works all the chocolate you want!
That would be a good benefit for you humans. We Wombies already eat all the chocolate that we want.
It sounds good to me Binky 🙂
I can make an appointment for you if you think you need it.
Woohoo Wombiegiving …. sounds like a new holiday to me.
I can give you all the chocolate you want, and Binky can take it away from you!
This is a brilliant idea for a birthday Card Deb 🙂 I like it a lot… And yes, of course we want some of your chocolate double whip fudge ice cream milkshakes, Winky, Fraz and Binky are drooling at just the mention of them 🙂 xxxx
Especially me! And today’s American Thanksgiving, too! All day eating fest!
Yes well I knew that you would be first in the queue, especially with all that cake and truffle covered chocolate 🙂
I wouldn’t want to miss out on any of the yummy treats!
Don’t worry you won’t 🙂
🙂 🙂
Is it powerful enough to suck up that black scribble on the floor?
Looks like I am the first US American to make a comment. Happy Thanksgiving 🙂
Just like an American, forcing his holiday cheer on the rest of the world 😉
As a fellow American. I would also like to force my Thanksgiving cheers on everyone including this webcomic! Wombania cannot win against Turkey!
I didn’t know we were in a war against turkey! But I don’t mind losing to it! Happy Thanksgiving, Denny!
Those black scribbles are everywhere. And they’re impossible to remove.
You can force your Thanksgiving on me, Dave! Really, I don’t mind! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks Winky. It was good and my blood sugar way too high 🙂
That’s good. But I don’t think I want any blood sugar. It sounds gross.
My Zombies enjoy it and some of the Vampires crave it after midnight 🙂
Those are good reasons for me not wanting it!
You might not be aware of this but you are well known for being an incredibly wise Wombie 🙂
Really?? Wow! I think I should celebrate with some chocolate!
I kept the blood sugar to myself and it did go back down.
Currently I am eating 2nd rate gummi bears. I knew I should have just purchased Haribo.
One day I might try those. But they’d take away space in my tummy from wine gums!
That is one cool looking looking vacuum cleaner!
Rocket power makes anything a lot cooler!
It doesn’t work as I’ve already tried it. Bwahahahahahaha.
If today is your birthday, then a big happy birthday to you.
Have a fabulous day. 🙂
It doesn’t work? That’s not fair!
My birthday was back in October, but thanks for the wishes, Sandee. And happy Thanksgiving!
I’ll be willing to give it a go! Got about 7 pounds (3 kilos) I need to lose.
I’ll set up an appointment for you. Seven pounds should be easy.
As long as that thing has enough suction to snatch spiders and bugs from the ceiling corners I would be happy. I’ll try exercise to remove my gut bound spare tire! W.C.C.
My vacuum should have sufficient suction to remove the spiders, bugs, and the corners from the ceiling.
I think it’s a great idea. And whoever designed that thing did a great job!
Thank you, Mike. All rocket-powered devices around here are of my design.
It’s much cheaper though!
Less than the price of a box of chocolates!
Oo..I just spied a comment from you, Peter that your birthday is in October? When in October?
As for the Wombies’ …can that be used to transfer cold / heat? 😉
I also would like to book a session …need some liposuction…badly! I could pay in chocolates 😉
My birthday is October 14. But don’t tell anyone!
Woohoo!! Yay!! Another Libran!!! and okay shhh…won’t tell anyone 😉
Is that what I am? I can never remember that. And you are too since you were born in late September.
Unfortunately I don’t think it would have sufficient capacity to transfer our winter snow and cold to you. I’ll have to work on a much larger device for that.
Awesome Binky…just try not to blow the world up into tiny pieces…that would be the end of chocolates and ice creams!!
I shall wait patiently for further developments!
I’ll try to make it a priority. I know a lot of people up here who would really like to borrow your excess heat during the winter.
Oh My that is one powerful machine. Patent it asap Binky. I have a feeling these humans will steal the idea and sell it for a very high cost.
Yes, the humans probably will. My last patent application didn’t go very well when they discovered I was a Wombie.
Don’t worry Binky they are just jealous of your inventions, it’s not your fault that you are a genius 🙂
Thank you Andro. I think they may be jealous of me being a Wombie as well.
Yes I agree, but you’re one special Wombie, and everyone that visits Wombania knows that 🙂
I think you’re a rather unique human, as well.
Oh my, you could come out all lumpy and bumpy. What if you lost grip of the power hose. It could vac out part of your brain.
Just invent some good tasting low fat chocolate.
Here’s a chocolate milkshake (full flavor) for you to drink while you think about it.
Well I’m already kind of lumpy and bumpy. But I wouldn’t want to lose my brain! Even though certain someones say I don’t have one.
Don’t you believe it!. You have a masterful chocolate mind!
I do have a pretty good mind for chocolate. And I have my chocolate doctorate, too!
That’s right! So keep away from the vacuum….protect the brain.
And protect the chocolate, too!
Of course! 🙂
I brought you chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, with chocolate butter.
That’s the best way to start a weekend! Thanks!
…and end it!…passing you another larger serving.
I can never have too many pancakes! I hope you’re having some too!
Thank you for posting Tink with a cake for you! She wasn’t sure how many candles to put on.
Thanks for making it for me, Deb. I think six candles is about right. Give or take a few decades!
Your welcome, my friend! 🙂
I told her she was heading in the right directions with those candles…depending on how one counts. 😉 🙂
Less is definitely better in the candles department!
I agree with that!
I want more candles!
Trust me, they’ll come. Once you get a certain amount they’ll come faster than you want.
I don’t think so!
That’s what I thought…then bam!
Well I don’t know. I have to wait forever for my birthday!
Pretty sure a little less junkfood would be better than liposuction (don’t hate me, I know the wombats love their junk food). hmm…I wonder if hubby is part wombat?!?!?!
Eating less junk food might be better but I don’t think I could do that! I think a lot of humans are part wombat!
I’d draw the line at quadruple bypass…
Happy Birthday, Peter!
I can’t even do a double jumper in checkers!
Thanks, Mark. My birthday was actually last month. I could have made that clearer.
I was watching a medical show about this recently. Sorry but I’m with Chris on this one guys
Did the show give you any instructions or tips?
Yeah it looked easy to do. Just poke it through a hole in your skin, turn the suction on & move it around a lot
I’m not so keen on the “poke it through a hole in your skin” part!
It would probably make a great vacuum cleaner. 🙂
It does! But it gets stuck to everything!
I might have to hire you guys for your services after the holidays are over! 😛
Okay! It’s a good idea to sign up now before the holiday rush!
You know…I certainly wouldn’t mind having my own DIY liposuction. I need to lose so many weight.
I don’t know about that. But if you want, maybe Fraz can bring it over to you next time he visits!
Gah, Chris. Way to hate on science. This could be history in the making!
Chris doesn’t like us doing things he thinks is dangerous. Which is just about everything.
