Sorry four panels, but this FPP is an unsuspecting civilian that's just picked up something shiny from the internet, and is about to be taken out by one of the sniper mods. Whose aim will be quickest and surest? Matt? Jess? Cortex?

I searched for both "sniper" and "baiting". Ah well.

Go ahead and shoot, coward, you are only killing a man.

I dunno, you could argue four panels is the sniper, not the mods.

...of course, I guess that would make me one of the victims.

A double post is like fucking the Homecoming queen, then going to school the next day and realizing the entire football team is laughing at you.

I don't understand this, but that will not prevent me from using it.

Can we refer to double posts as "Imus moments" from now on?

I think it's because the football team has all fucked her, or because she has herpies.
