I’ve shared many a flat with folk who played this game !
There are a lot of players out there!
Yeah Duncan, but playing with wine bottles is so much harder 🙂
I always win this game with my wife.
Why am I not surprised?
Ditto
There is nothing like a game of spring the trash from the can, well actually there is but I can’t tell you on here so hard lines 🙁
Perhaps I’ll make up my own game and put Fraz in the can!
Knowing Fraz he will leap out with a pancake in his hand 🙂
Well I hope he didn’t get it from the garbage!
No he always has a fresh supply hidden away, but no idea where he stashes them? 🙂
I’m not telling! But you can have all the pancakes you want, Andro!
Thank you Fraz and I will share my wine gums with you anytime 🙂
I think we need to celebrate again!
Well if we are celebrating
don’t forget the party hats 🙂
I haven’t taken mine off since I got my island!
Yes there are a few of us that keep our party hats handy, as there is always a party just waiting to happen at any given moment 🙂
Especially around here! There are so many things to celebrate!
Yes I can think of lots of ideas for parties Fraz, so why don’t we have some pancakes and get ready for the next one? 🙂
Okay! There’s always room for another pancake party!
Hahaha…
so, does the ‘loser’ have to empty?!
🙂
Apparently. I always have to empty the trash because no one else will!
Yes funny that, I always end up with that job too 🙁
It doesn’t pay to be the neat one!
Hubby always wins this game. He’d put up side walls just to get more in if he could.
I know the feeling!
it seems we play this a lot at my house – since I’m the only one who seems to empty the garbage.
True dat!
Men are unable to empty the trash! It must be genetic.
Hey I always empty the trash cans 🙂
Sorry, Andro! I guess it’s not a he/she thing, it’s more like a neat/messy thing. Or a I-can-tolerate-a-lot-more-garbage-than-you-can competition.
Yes I know what you mean Twink and being that you and me are so clean and tidy we just cannot abide such messy surroundings 🙁
Maybe we can just sweep all those messy others into the trash.
Great idea that one Twink and then why don’t I make us a nice cup of tea and a few dozen pancakes? 🙂
Sure! I’ll bring the maple syrup and scones and we can celebrate the end of messiness!
I hope this idea works out Twink, but if not just think of all the extra pancakes and scones we will be sharing 🙂 It just goes to prove that being clean always pays 🙂
Yes, I think we’ll win either way!
Exactly, now do you want one or two sugars in that tea? Oh yes and I have brought some freshly made scones and a pancake chef, you need to relax and enjoy the evening for a change 🙂
Only one, please. And the candlelight and wine gums are a very nice touch, Andro!
Yes well they don’t call me Prince of the Goths for nothing you know 🙂
Yes, you’re quite the charmer!
Thank you Twink, and do have another soft centred chocolate and let me pour you another tea 🙂
Oh, thank you! Mmmm….
Bwahahahahahaha. Competition is competition. Excellent.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
And I always win!! Yay me!
She is going to stuff you in that can, Fraz. Better watch out!
Red.
Twink actually did once! It was a bit embarrassing!
Oh, my. Is there a strip about that one?
Red.
There is, but it’s not on here because I’ve hidden it!
You may have to email it to me 😉
Red.
I just did. But don’t tell anyone!
Sounds like a fun competition Fraz. Who got the most win? you or winky?
I think I’m better at garbage stuffing than Winky. But Winky’s had more years to practice.
Winning is not easy. Give Fraz credit
Fraz is the master.
Maybe even the Jedi Master judging from the force on that last game 🙂
Yay, I’m the Jedi Trash Master!!
Sorry, Fraz, that’s my title!!! Noone can stuff trash like I can!!
I don’t know about that! We’ll have to have a trash-stuffing competition to see who’s better!
Let The Force Be With You Fraz 🙂
The Jedi Trash Force is on my side!
I think that you deserve an extra helping of pancakes for being so masterful 🙂
Yeah, being a Trash Master requires a lot of work, and I need to keep my energy up!
You’re right Fraz and here are another five freshly prepared pancakes with lashings of maple syrup, actually I like a bit of freshly squeezed orange on mine but maple syrup is great too 🙂
I like peanut butter on my pancakes!
I like peanut butter on a nice piece of celery 🙂
I like Cheese Whiz on celery, but I’ve never tried peanut butter on celery!
And I have not tried Cheese Whiz either so how about we swap? 🙂
Sounds like a good swap to me!
Maybe we could try chocolate on celery, too!
So now you have doubled your crowns. Prince and Master. Moving up in the world, Fraz.
Red.
Don’t forget President, King, and Prime Minister! Well, I haven’t actually gotten elected yet.
Don’t worry Fraz you will be nominated very soon, but which of those accolades will be chosen first? 🙂 It is always so difficult to choose but as you have all the best ideas I know that you will pick wisely 🙂
I think I’m going to run for President first, and then once I’m elected, I’ll go for the others! You can see my posters on my special Fraz for President page.
Congrats, Fraz! Not having to take out the trash is definitely a prize worth winning!
I sure think so!
You won a new light sabre Fraz well done 🙂
And I need it, too, now that I’m the Jedi Master of Trash!
With all these new titles you are getting to be a right little super hero 🙂 I wonder if you will get bigger pancakes now, being that you are the Super Hero of Wombania? 🙂
Well I should! A super hero like me needs his super-sized pancakes!
Yes and you should see the wine gums, they are huge 🙂
Those are Wombie-sized wine gums!
Wombie Wine Gum Wonders and Phenomenal Pancakes here we come 🙂
Let’s stop talking and start eating!!
Now you’re talking, metaphorically speaking of course, here Fraz have another pancake 🙂
Mmmmmmm. . . !
You know who doesn’t win? The person that has to clean that up!
Tell me about it!
hehehehehe too close to real life, when I was married.
Loved it! Wonderful art, hysterical subject and writing.
Thanks, Miss R. There are a lot of people like that!
kids always win this game !
Or trashy adults! I mean messy.
It seems that she is just a sore loser!
That’s what I think too, but don’t try to tell her that!
“Life is a game”! He should get an award for creating new games.
#TeamFraz
Yeah, I should! The Fraz Trash Game!
good fun isn’t bad 😉
No, it’s good fun!!
For sure for you 😉
🙂
My wife hates when I do that! I guess that’s why I do it. 🙂
Sometimes it’s pretty easy to bug girls!!
My wife plays this game to win. I seem to be the only one in te house who seems to know how to empty it.
You must be the neat one, then. It seems as if only one person can empty the trash in any house. Too bad you couldn’t train Dixie or Angus to do it.
But then he would be selling “how to train your dogs to take out the trash” videos instead of writing the Tasmanians. That would be horrible.
Red.
But after Tony makes his millions with the training videos, he could devote all his time to his comic strip!
He would have to moonlight with the strip whilst he made the millions.
Red.
Yes, that’s probably true, but all artists must suffer.
Fraz be humble in your victory. She tried.
I’m humble.
I won!!!!
Thank goodness it was just paper. At my house it could be anything from a can to last nights dinner!!!!
It’s more exciting when it’s messy trash!
On the planet UG there is a diner called Sloppy Joe’s, I wonder what his trash looks like? 🙁 Actually he is looking for a new helper but that could be dodgy with you being a Super Hero…
Maybe Winky wouldn’t mind helping out there, if they gave him free food.
He calls his food Slop Burgers and Slime Cuisine but his speciality is Dumpster Pancakes on Rye so Winky might not like those choices 🙁
I could try to save the pancakes before they end up in the dumpster!
That is a wise choice Winky, and while you are doing that I will try and grab a few chocolate milkshakes, his diner might be a bit dodgy but his milkshakes are prized throughout the galaxy 🙂
BUT, do they have winegums, Androgoth????
Doesn’t everyone? Well, other than Americans.
Of course they do, well it’s a sort of twist on Earthly Wine Gums, they call them Grime Gums but he says that you are welcome to a whole packet of them on his next batch 🙂
Food usually brings out my smarts!
Those milkshakes sound really good!
They are better than good, they are groovy 🙂
Fantabulous!
What is the prize when you win this game – a dirty banana peel or empty Friito bag on your shoe? W.C.C.
No, that’s what the loser gets! The winner gets, well, blamed, I guess.
You really should start keeping score. Maybe, Winky will step up his game. Or you could make it a team effort.
Red.
Winky and I are usually the only ones who play, but that’s probably because the others realize how awesome we are and just give up.
Having a reputation is cool.
Red.
Where I work there is a crew of people for who one of their responsibilities is picking up and emptying trash. But if you ever go to the main area where they stage and end their workdays you will find trash cans so full that the ground around them is littered with the overflow. Hard to believe. At home I always win this game since I have size 12 feet! But then again I always empty the trash too.
I know a yeti with smaller feet than that but hey if you are the main trash remover then perhaps Fraz will enrol you into the Super Hero Programme of Wombania? I think you will get extra pancakes and chocolate treats if you accept his challenges, but don’t take my word for it, ask first 🙂
And don’t forget we teach Fraz Fu at the Super Hero Program, too. And also how to eat like a super hero.
For you this will be as easy as eating your way through a hundred pancakes 🙂
It comes naturally to me, but sometimes other people need help with eating like a Wombie.
Yes and I know a Fraz Super Hero that can help them out every time 🙂
Yeah, teaching people to eat like a Wombie is pretty fun!
It sounds like a Super Heroes Paradise to me Fraz 🙂
Pretty much!
Unfortunately I like to eat super size hero’s. Is that to obscure an attempt at humor? Maybe not too many people these days know what a hero is?
There aren’t as many heroes around as there used to be. But there are a lot of sub shops.
It’s like that old adage, “The cobbler’s children go unshod.”
Your feet are almost as big as mine!
I thought it was “The son of the shoemaker has no shoes”? When I hear cobbler, I think peaches.
Peach cobbler in an old shoe, anyone?
I guess there are many versions and translations of that old saying. But these days there are probably no shoemakers left, anyway.
No they all go around in their bare feet shouting cobblers… Nooo I mean that they are shouting where are all the cobblers? 🙂 Glad I got that one right…
I’ve got one in the fridge! I mean a peach cobbler, not a cobbler person. That would just be weird.
Depends on how thinly you slice them.
Red.
I don’t think I want a people cobbler no matter how thin you slice him! Or her!
Yes stick to the peaches Winky, well not literally of course 🙂
I usually do stick to the peaches, though.
Fraz can turn a paper wad into an Olympic event!
I go for the gold, even if it is garbage!
Measure them like the long jump…This really is a team competition.
Red.
Yeah, then maybe I could set a world’s record!
Talk about a really cool title to have!
Red.
The World’s Best Master Trash Stuffer!
I separate my garbage into recyclables and the other stuff. We don’t seem to have much “other stuff” so it doesn’t get emptied very often. I like doing the recycling; plastic and glass containers make a satisfying sound when they’re tossed into the wheelie bin
It must be a wheelie big bin!! Ha ha!!
They are wheelie, wheelie big bins those Fraz as I have one in my garden too 🙂
Maybe you could give me a ride in it one day!
Yes I sure can, and it will
be wheelie good fun too 🙂
I’m sure it wheelie will be!
We just recently had to get a second 60 gallon curbside recycle can since we can recycle almost anything now and they only pick them up every other week. Our 40 gallon trash can goes out every week, but it never more than 1/2 full anymore. I guess that’s good!
That’s a lot of recycling! I’d have to get Winky to lift that.
Fraz is so competitive! I love it, I’d totally kick his butt at garbage throwing
Oh yeah?? I challenge you to a throw-off!!
I’d be mad too, it’s hard work to slip one past the trashcan goalie.
You can’t get one past me!
Perhaps the Fraz Challenge Game will enhance this new sport, but as it can only be authorised by a Fraz Super Hero we will all just have to wait and see what happens next? 🙂
I think a Fraz Challenge Game would be a good idea since a lot of people think they could beat me at these trash games, but I DON’T THINK SO!!
Me Neither, you’re definitely the Wombie with style, and with the biggest pancakes and wine gums this side of Wombania 🙂
And I practice every day!
Not a lot of people know that, but they do now 🙂 And you know what they say… Practice makes perfect 🙂
I know! That’s why I’m the Jedi Master Trash Masher!
Even Luke Skywalker would have difficulty beating you at this game Fraz 🙂
I think so! He might have the Force, but I have the Trash Masher Force!
Yes and a team of Skeletons standing by to help now that you are a Jnr Prince of the Vampire Realm 🙂
Having the Skeleton Force too will be a big help in beating all these other people in the Trash Wars!
I’ve played this game many a time.
It’s a good game! I think maybe I should go pro!
A trash league? I’m liking your idea.
Yeah, the best trash players, guaranteed!
It’s going to be the only game in history that encourages rubbish players 🙂
But only the best rubbish players!
Winning! 🙂
That’s me!
Wow. That’s expert mode right there. I play this all the time and never manage to get the trash to fly out the lid is lifted. *golf clap*
You have to know how to set the trap so that the lid has just enough weight to keep it all in until someone opens it! Springy trash helps!
So it’s all in the Spring action is it Fraz? 🙂
A lot of it is. But you also have to know how to pack the trash in there juuust right!
I will learn from the Master 🙂
I’ll teach you everything I know about trash stuffing!
I bet I could squeeze another piece of trash in the can.
I don’t know, I had it expertly packed!
This strip hit a homerun with co-habitation! I call it the ‘Janga tower’ but I’m not even sure that’s a game anymore.
It seems in every relationship, there’s the neat one and the messy one!
In my house if you are the one who fills it you get to take it out, so no one wants that glory.
I need to employ that rule around here!
I like that idea too 🙂
