Friday had a hectic day today. The strip it was working on is nearly complete. Figured on completing the last bits --mostly background-- today, but Friday basically just got home due to a problem with work. So instead...you get a tree...  Till next week then. ----- Vote for Sluggy Freelance at Top Web Comics. Remember to vote EACH day. [#95 +4 *126]

Oh no. Gwynne likes sad on the inside. What possibly could go wrong?

Yeah, Torg has a fair amount of stress and angst bottled up inside. Part of the reason Zoe is so good for him.

@Pete, regarding your rum uncertainty: Standard hard liquor is 80 proof. 151 is less than twice that, so just pretend one person drank a bottle of almost anything else down to that level -- which is a lot for someone who isn't already a raging drunk, but certainly not to the point of lethality.
If they haven't eaten anything recently, there's a strong chance of gastritis (swollen stomach), which will make tomorrow utterly un-fun but isn't going to kill an otherwise healthy adult. If they have eaten, they'll likely vomit out most of the alcohol before much longer, and just have a standard hangover.
Or Torg spilled it, and they're just regular-drunk.

Once again, 151 Rum works its Sluggy magic! Is it not nifty? Worship the Rum.

As an experienced raging drunk, I can tell you from experience that drinking half a bottle of that would be not only completely survivable, but not especially deadly. As Tejon pointed out, it might be a lot at once for someone who isn't a raging drunk, though.

If this ends in sex I will be very annoyed. With Pete.

Let's see, Torg and Gwynn are polishing off one of Bun-Bun's bottles of 151 Rum... Gwynn just called Bun-Bun adorable... Torg wasted some of the rum by spilling it...? No they're not going to live, but has nothing to do with the level of alcohol toxicity....
