Here is.

  While I'm not happy with this being a time waster, I do like how cute Rhoda is in asking Cat if the were on a date.  Cat looks like she was hit with a mild stun gun in the middle frame.

Adorkable

Side note, the word Adorkable does not trigger my spell check
This seems odd

It does mine, but as I mentioned elsewhere, my spell check is based on word lists that are country particular and that if I have an British or Canadian word list file installed it uses it instead of the 'Merican file list.

That's adorkable. (Triggered)

And with how she looks at her, she certainly hopes for "yes". I said that two comics ago Rhoda wasn't just trying to be nice.

Now ... "did certain things together anyway" ... that's VERY open to interpretation. Of course, if Rhoda wasn't one of them, she likely can't be more specific even if she wanted.

No, I rather think of it as Nerdy.

Like I've said before Rhoda + Cat is my favorite EGS couple that isn't part of a threesome, or at least a threesome in my head cannon.

So, did you forgot https://www.egscomics.com/comic/2013-12-20 or did you just not accepted into head cannon?

Forgot it.   Hmm.  Given that my head canon is Elliot + Ashley + Susan, as my #1 threesome, that would make life a bit weird.  Well, Catalina has shown some interest in Susan, this could work.

Your link suggests a foursome, not a threesome. Also, panel seven makes it fairly clear that panels five and six happened only in Catalina's head.

I think a head cannon sounds like a bad idea. You'd fall over when you fire it. But do post a video on YouTube when you do, it will be funny.

[Scotty 1,061]

This was a meet-cute. If Catalina so desires (which is likely) there will be an upcoming date.

She also pounced on and kissed Elliott, and he complimented her kissing.

We gonna bust out the polycule map again, aren't we?

True.  That does add an element to the OT5.

Of course!  I'll start work on it soon.

In my defense, I just copied mlooney's mistake.

OT23 needs update!

(Or maybe not. Not that much changed since it, did it? Well, Lucy is missing ...)

Need to add Lucy, of course.

Sounds dangerous.

Cannons are used for physical defense. Canons are used for ideological defense. Mixing those two wouldn't be pretty ...

There was some memo-technic based on what you want to have more of ... oh wait that was dessert.

You could go with a head catapult.

Like catapults and catechisms.

You could have a shell full of propaganda leaflets and have both; a canon cannon. Or doctrine on the use of cannons, that would be cannon canon.

You could. However, I suspect that unlike catapults, which can deliver the catechism in usable state, canon fired from cannon would be unreadable. Meanwhile, I don't see any problem with cannon canon.

They make shells designed to carry leaflets.

I, on the other hand, would find it odd if no one ever tried. This is close, bombs, not shells. Oops, nope, they have shells; about half way down, WW II; picture of guys loading them. Don't need to speculate.

We are rather inventive critters when it comes to mayhem. Someone has tried it. Yeah, I don't care what "it" is, someone has tried it.

Bill Mauldin talks about, among many other things, pamphlet shells being used in Italy by the US Army in WWII in his book "Up Front".

I've never read that. I recall his comics, WW II was still important to my parent's generation long after the fact.

It's mainly a collection of his comics with commentary about why he did a given comic and general autobiographical stuff.

Interesting.
I knew that there were leaflets distributed from planes, but I sort of assumed they just drop them without the bomb around them, utilizing the fact that sheet of paper falls quite slowly (unlike the bomb).

Also, I imagined more like classical cannons, front-loaded ones. Those probably wouldn't be able to deliver the canon readable, at least not with original technology. Thinking about modern cannons, I don't see any reason why should it surprise me ... I should've though about them sooner

Rule 34 says something very similar about porn. I suppose it would be true about sex itself as well, although SOME porn was likely just drawn / done using CGI ... like, we don't have any extraterrestrials we know about ...

Maybe not quite Rule 34 level, but warfare does not lead technology gently by the hand; it shoves it forward into harms way, damn the consequences. Between that and the space program we have our modern tech environment.
