Smell No Evil

 

 

Offensive smells are one of the world's most sophomoric forms of warfare, as anyone with a little brother can attest to. 

Phobitron

All new from Dilettante Co. is the Phobitron™!
Whether you wish to be rid of the resident moocher that you can't even count as a dependent on your taxes, or the roommate and his/her/its significant other has infected the residence with too much reality television, our lovable(?) mechanized characters will gently persuade them to leave.  When the job is too big for a Cabbage Patch Kid or that glitchy, decade-old furby you hide in the attic, call for Phobitron™! 

As an additional note, we're not kidding about the Traumata Cat.  After consulting with our legal department, we have decided that it should only be leased in extreme emergencies, which must be proved with photographic evidence and at least four eyewitness accounts.  On a related note, our photographer has calmed down a bit and promised to come out from under the bed by the end of the month. 



The funny thing is, while they're technically robots, it turns out it's surprisingly difficult to make an actually robot-like Phobitron sufficiently creepy without either including an obscene amount of weaponry or referencing H.A.L.

...aaaand because we haven't seen the soul-eating unicorn enough on this blog already... 

Right.  There we go. 

A Little Joust

"Father, I have sinned - I have drawn dinosaurs and hominids together in the same cartoon."  

~Gary Larson      

Drawing dinosaurs and early man together is historically inaccurate, but at least somewhat excusable.  

This isn't.  Bad little dilettante.  Bad.  

I did, however, do enough research to know that a) that's not a full-grown Triceratops, and b) its species name is horridus.  Two points for science. 

Now we should probably all leave before someone gets the bright idea to try jousting on a Tyrannosaurus. 

Movie Night

Most people are capable of being civil towards each other.  Some just need a little more ...persuasion than others. 

...And so the saga continues.  Making us (slightly) grateful for the roommates we already have since 2013.
