    Did he even crack the eggs before putting them in the pan? Also, he’s just lost the rest of them to the floor in that last panel. Messy messy.

    • KomiIsDrawing

      Ye’re meant t’ *crack* ’em? Bloody hell..

    • Arianwen

      I love that last panel. …What? It’s so easy to forget you’re holding eggs, or dishes, or oil, or milk, or…

  • Yoeri

    Looking at those eggs, I believe he might have cracked them, but still tossed them in the pan without opening or anything. Or they got cracked in the pan. So yeah… he just tossed them in, in a sense. Reminds me of when he first got to Thackerey’s place, when he dropped the ink vial. So he seems to let things slip a lot. Everything ends up on the floor when he’s thinking about things too much, no?

  • PraetorDragoon

    Well, at least the didn’t explode.

  • Sir_Krackalot

    Aww, they’re just like a married couple. One cooks and thinks and does all the work, and the other bitches.

  • Aqlex

    Gotta love the underpants gnomes!

  • Oh, hey, Ben also flails around a wet towel when smoke is billowing out of something. Well that makes me feel correct and proper about doing so myself on some half-retained memory of some old household tips book I read as a kid. ^_^

    • Nonesuch

      Maybe he was going to cover the pot with the cloth and thus smother the fire? You know, for lack of a bucket of sand or an extinguisher to put out a grease fire.

      • Heh, well, if I recall right the book claimed the wet towel could be used to direct the bulk of the smoke out a window and that it’s being wet would catch the particles of smoke out of the remaining air afterwards or somesuch.. ^_^; This is the same book that recommended giving a noisy dog a treat like chocolate to keep them quiet though so I have no idea how much psudo science or flat inaccuracies was involved in that recommendation though.

        • KomiIsDrawing

          Chocolate for dogs, oh no D: It’d certainly keep them quiet, bit more permanently than expected..

          The idea was to smother the smoke. I don’t know if you’re actually meant to cover a burning pan with a wet towel, it’s half-remembered knowledge. I considered looking it up, but then decided it’d be half-remembered for Ben too, so he can share in my ignorance. Little more realistic that way!

          • Exactly– it was an old book so I guess they didn’t know about dogs and chocolate when it was written. Made it somewhat harder to take any of the other advice without a grain of salt, though.
            Heh! So Ben doesn’t know what he’s really doing either, huh? Oh, dear!

  • Violet Black

    “Why are they on fire?!” “I don’t bloody well know, do I?!” That exchange made me LOL. Kind of reminds me of the time I set the ramen noodles on fire. I /think/ I knew I was supposed to add water, just slipped my mind…

    • Oblivion

      Hey, I’ve done that.

  • Nonesuch

    Aww, they’re starting to bond! :D How cute.

  • Me-me

    Mal’s etty-ket for tricky situations you done fought over
    1. ‘Pologise
    2. ???
    3. Profit!

  • Hethaa

    N’aaaaaw.

  • Spirit22

    Mal and Wolfe remind me of a male version of Zimmy and Gamma from Gunnerkrig Court.

    • KomiIsDrawing

      There are a lot of similarities, now that you mention it..! Even down to the more stable one being foreign. Dang, I hate it when I do that..!

      • Me-me

        Quite right, how dare you take inspiration from other modern works!

        All inspiration should be from old works that the author can’t sue you over! Preferably because he’s dead and his work is public domain!
