For Gold and Glory

Rejected Olympic Events: Trampoline Fencing, Equestrian Volleyball, Archery Diving, Rythmic Hammer Throwing

Nothing says world peace and unity like people from around the world gathering to compete in events that are most definitely against the Geneva Convention, right?

Magical Mirth

"Why is it snowing in my car?" Never engage a unicorn in a prank war.

Actually, never engage a unicorn in any kind of war. The results of this kind at least will be hilarious, as long as you don't mind losing spectacularly.

Washed Up

Two boys use use a garden hose and a blow dryer to do dishes, while both are on their phones.

There's "work smarter, not harder," and then there's this.

A Basic Guide to Automotive Controls

Car steering wheel and dashboard labeled with descriptions like "steering mechanism/blunt force trauma inflictor" (steering wheel), "you nearly killed me, you idiot' button" (horn), "happy anti-death balloon compartment" (air bag), "lazy enablers" (cruise control), "cop proximity indicator" (speed gauge), "I wonder how high this goes?" (odometer), "heat meter" (engine temperature), "cool meter" (RPM gauge), "inverted prayer gauge" (fuel gauge), "courtesy toggle" (headlight and turn signal lever), "visibility toggle" (windshield wipers), "panic button" (hazard lights), "musical disk nom-nommer" (CD drive), "panic meter" (clock), "head-bob-inducing mechanism" (radio), "personal weather system" (fan controls), "hurricane dial" (fan strength), "sweat dial" (temperature control), "Go Dogs Go!"

Cars have a lot of little buttons to keep track of. Hopefully this helps.

Shock and Awe

The goats hide as 4th of July fireworks light off. Admiral: Why are they doing this? Are they insane? Wisp: No, there's a purpose. In decades past, the ancient humans fought against evil spirits, and now light fireworks every year to scare them away and preserve freedom for mankind. Admiral: ...Oh. I guess that makes sense. Wisp: Though our people light them in November too. Brigadier: Wait, what?!? Galahad: Do you blame them?

Humans can't possibly enjoy bright, loud explosions... right?

Note: Just to clarify, Bonfire Night is November 5th and involves fireworks, which is what the goats are referencing in the last panel. Which yes, my family celebrates, because why not?
