It’s the neighborhood terror, Ashley. If anyone was destined to grow up a despot, it’s her.

This is just a quick post from work - more when I have a free moment, I’m sure.

I must say, Ashley is one of my favorite characters. I’ve babysat, and been a kid just like her…several times. I only did it cuz I was tired of being the tackle dummy in football for my cousins and brother…

Luckily, I outgrew it…maybe there’s hope for her.

Exactly. You bring in a crappy horse and then quickly switch it with a ringer alien clone straight outta the X-Files or Compton. Way to go, ninja boxer.

No, I think it’s safe to say that that child is evil incarnate. She is the reason that my idea of babysitting involves rope and duct tape.

He may have stolen her tricycle, but that kid still is pure evil. She’s all of what,5? If that; I was on a bike by that age, not a tricycle. I would love to see him take Mr. Bear hostage then turn Mr. Bear on her.

Although, the apple one, I shall not put on, for I will earn his trust and then- you are watching correct? That is a gone plan. Well, you are a mere gnat. I shall be back, in 2 days.

Imposter! Pah. And, if you truly were THE mr. bear, you would go by your formal name, Mr. Bear, instead of how that colleague of mine says it. By the way, I only have a chance at talking on every 2 days, which means about 1 & 1/2 days, as you can see. From here, I shall bid farewell to you, human imposter of mr. bear, and say: watch your clothes dryer…..

Hawk should so go for the whole exorcism thing and bring Ashley to the Apple side of the force by bathing her in the glorious radient glow that emits out of the beauty that is an iPod, that might just be enough to turn her (what i believe to be a “Windows loving” heart) to the good side of the force that would be MAC.

or have her recoil to the light from the iPod like a vampire does to sunlight that would be sweet too! =]

Phear the damage when Eve sees Hawk get hurt. She does not (would not) know how serious, even if the bleach only gets on his clothes. She also does not know the difference between age for kids and adults. Rampaging Eve would scare Ashley so bad that Ashley may surprise her own mom at being nice for the rest of her life.

Or are we all just jerking off?

I don’t think Eve would ever harm a child. She’s too sweet for that.

Eve would probably huggle Ashley into oblivion.
Eve: “Aww, you’re so cute!” *huggle*
Ashley: “NNNNNNOOOOOOO!!”

Ahahaha, @Cathal:

Ashley definitely isn’t based on Elmyra (Elmira?) … I know the reference (and Tiny Toons was awesome, for the record), but Elmyra drove me up the wall. I was never a huge fan of her segments, haha. Mr. Bear and Ashley are more like Pinky and the Brain, if a comparison is going to be made …

They’re pretty hilarious, and totally reminded me of Ashley. Sorry if this is something everyone already knows about.

You know the day before I read this episode about the bleach someone at work sprayed another co-worker in the eyes with clorox bath room cleaner with bleach.

The reason for it, the co-worker who sprayed was mad that I laughed at him for sticking his mouth on a filthy sticky window and he thought it was me.

First comp I programed was an apple IIe… My homeroom teacher got pissed when she didnt know how to make “hello” stop scrolling across the screen. My budy has 2 apple laptops. one with OS10 and one that he trashed the apple OS for linux.. and I run a PC and laptop with windows XP. Looking at this comic, I had never realy been a huge mac fan, but I am starting to see that they are not all that bad.. though the thought that they cant get a virus is obsurd. ANY computer can get one, just that macs are not as common so hackers dont build against them as much. one day, a huge virus will sweep through macs and everyone who said it cant happen will mess their shorts. and personaly… I want the scematics for Eve.. If apple can make someone like THAT, then I will go out and buy 100 macs right now…. and spend every last penny I got buying apple stock.
