Does that shirt say ‘Silt Life’?
I love silt as much as the next flood plain ya know but that’s kind of irrelevant to the comic
Saltlife, it’s a surfer clothing brand.
Hard to read with dem big ol’ titties in the way
I would troll people with this if I ran a shop.
“Ask about our hot guy discount”
And when someone actually asks about it, (the guy in the comic doesn’t ask, he just says that he has heard that they have one, which is a statement, not a question)… I would make sure that everyone is trained to say “we don’t have one”.
I said ask about it, not that one exists.
I would just give it to anybody who asks on a hot day.
That’s a nice twist.
In Hungarian, “hot” (meleg) means gay
Like, it’s the word for a gay person
Just sayin’
You have the hottest head of state, hotter than that of Russia
I used to live in Atlanta and when I first got there I was perusing the roommates ads and I noticed that a lot of the ads used the word “liberal”. I called one and chatted with the guy and it seemed like a good fit. He finally said “so … are you liberal?” and I said “yeah, I’m pretty liberal – I hate Reagan.” He laughed and explained to me that “liberal” meant gay. I said “oh, I’m not gay” and then asked if it was OK if I still lived there because I needed a place.
Hungary
Gays are so hot right now
In American, Hungry means you want to eat something
no, in American it means you want to eat mcdonalds
And the comic artist is meleg too. What a coincidence.
Now, bait both sides of the gender war by making a gender-flipped version of the comic!
It would actually be really interesting to have a comic artist do this routinely for their comics. Would definitely make a lot of people consider their assumptions
Fool. She’s a goth chick, of course she is gonna get a discount.
nah nah gotta make her a blonde girl jock, like the annoying volleyball player whos kind of a total bully
WackDonald’s
In my opinion, the number one reason that guy is objectively and unequivocally not hot is the fact he is not wearing a seat belt.
I figured the artist just left out that detail so readers could read his shirt
For me is the sunglasses, they’re ugly af
Yea that style died out in the 2010’s.
I’ll never understand who the fuck cares about what’s currently “in style”, and why. It has to fit the person, not the society.
I do concur about the missing seatbelt though. Makes him look ugly.
Some people are really concerned with fitting in. Probably a survival trait from early humans
I can still watch Kelly LeBrock in Weird Science and realize she’s insanely hot, even though '80s style is out of fashion (although it’s sort of come back in bits and pieces).
I only agree with style in so far as pointing out what has fallen out of style. As many, many things are stupid fads that should have never been “cool” in the first place.
Me, wearing shutter shades.
'Sup.
Apparently nobody in Alberta got the memo.
I mean, Alberta is filled with backwoods dipshits that pretend to be US citizens from 10 years ago, so…
I guess get ready for Alberta’s Donald Trump soon?
Not my friends in Alberta, but they live on a reservation.
He didn’t order a hot guy though, so why would he get a discount?
The comic strip never shows what he ordered. There’s a chance!
It is heavily implied he ordered an XL Meal. Could a “Hot Guy” is a type of sandwich? Like a fancy version of a “Po’ Boy”, maybe.
Maybe a spicy Po’ Boy that’s twice the size?
Yeah! Maybe that’s the entree in the $15.99 XL meal!
Apparently he got the discount, since the price would be more after tax.
you and your weird “you will actually pay more than your see on the sign.” Our prices just include taxes, so you know exactly how much you will end up paying.
I know, it’s very annoying. Always got culture shock when I came back to the States and had to pay more than the listed price.
The reasoning is because every county can have different taxes, so it varies a lot from place to place, but I think that’s a lame excuse. The place it’s being sold knows exactly how much the tax will be, so they could post the correct amount!
That never made sense to me, either. You can calculate how much it’ll be after tax automatically. I guess making the customer feel like they’re paying less is more important than being upfront about prices.
In ohio there’s no tax on food so that’s also a possibility here
Does anywhere in America have sales tax on drive throughs?
Also ohio does have sales tax on dine in, at least it did a few months ago and the previous two decades
Same in CA, but fast food is considered a service so it’s taxed.
No sales tax in Oregon
Only if you aren’t going to eat in the restaurant. If you eat in you have to pay sales tax
salt life shirt in ohio is wild
/smalltext i assume they exist/
I live in Ohio. They absolutely exist.
That being said, a lot of people in western Ohio go to Myrtle Beach every year, enough that I don’t really question it
Yeah i see less of them out west than I did in Ohio. Fucking myrtle beachers…
I grew up in NE Ohio and everybody there went to Daytona for spring break. I don’t know where they go now, but fucking nobody goes to Daytona for spring break any more.
I live in Kansas City. The closest ocean is 750 miles away. I want to punch every single driver I see with salt life on their car…
I always thought that it was people being brazen about cocaine addictions lmao
For the longest time I thought it said slut life. I laughed very hard when I found out the truth. I still call it that when I see one. And yeah, I hate them as well.
Sounds like a shirt idea lol. Kinda like “south butt” being a parody of north face.
Alright, this one got me cracking up on my lunch break
I still own my South Butt coat! It’s somewhat tattered now and thus not worn, but I loved the raised eyebrows when people read the logo and it didn’t say what they thought it would.
I want to get one so bad but my wife wontbley me lol. I’m jealous of you
A quick glace on fleaBay shows a few used coats, but I’d just get one of the tshirts if that suits you. I am sure someone else is making those now and they are only $20 or so. Wear it when the wife is out of town.
I thought that too. I was almost pleased with the state of the world for a few months, over that misunderstanding.
They really want you to know that they went to the beach once, and they might do it again.
Hey, they’re just being honest about their high sodium diet.
Fuck yeah salt makes stuff taste way better
PINK HIMALAYAN SEA SALT ISN’T EVEN FROM THE HIMALAYAS!!!
Wait, it’s not for þose of us who drink soy sauce from þe bottle‽‽
Damn it, I just ordered þe shirt!
What happened to your keyboard?

I think it’s cool, as English could benefit from re-introducing “ð” (eth) and “þ” (thorn) and getting rid of “c” (because it’s fucking useless)
My only gripe with the user in question is that they get snippy when they’re corrected on when to use “þ”. They’re specifically using the usage in Middle English, not how Old English or modern Icelandic use them.
This gave me an idea.
As someone who lives on the coast I never see that. I assumed it was a desert thing, like Nevada or whatever lol.
Salt, as in ‘salt water,’ life.
But lizards do have salt flats and the shirts spread faster than the knowledge of what the fuck a salt life is so…
It’s just a sticker for your F250.
Been thinking of getting a sticker maker, maybe I’ll put a sticker on my 2001 Tacoma that says “Arctic life” note I live just outside of the Mojave as in if the San Bernardino mountains weren’t present it’d be a 10 minute drive.
The NCR ranger puts an “Artic Life” sticker on his armor before pointing at it and saying “Patrolling the Mojave, eh? EH?!”
The hell’s a Nevada?
<hauls ass to Tahoe>Fun fact the state of Nevada just straight up stole the name from the city in California that has now had to rename to Nevada City.
That’s pretty funny actually
I lived in the southeast near the coast and these stickers were everywhere. Now I live in the PNW and they’re nowhere to be seen. And yet, Confederate flags are semi regular and I fear I will never escape the sound of mainstream country music…
Makes you pine for the Salt Life days, doesn’t it?
This is the first I’ve heard of it.
Only 750 miles? I figured KC would have to be like 1000-1200 from an ocean
Did you forget about the Gulf of Mexico?
Yup. Visited Galveston last year.
No, I just wasn’t thinking of it as an ocean since ocean isn’t in the name
I think it’s generally considered part of the Atlantic. Or at least that’s how I think of it.
It is.
I live less than an hour from large bodies of salt water and feel similarly.
I feel that, but how close are you to the nearest salt mine lol
“Two burgers and some fry, thanks”
What would you want baby fish for?

“No, I want to know about the discount on the hot guy”
Alternate ending.
my pasty, fat, goblin lookin’ ass pulling up sweating my balls off becsuse it’s 102 outside and my A/C is busted
Fuck… I’m so damn hot! 😩🥵 What? Half off? Siiiick!
That;s just mean.
Agree. Also the whole concept of a hot guy discount is mean.
What if they give it to every guy to make them feel better :³
That might work for most guys - unfair to women though.
Women can be hot guys too. It’s just statistically rarer
Women can get the discount if they bring a guy with them.
That doesn’t feel right.
They can get a discount if they put on a fake mustache.
– Come on! Who ordered that? Who ordered that menu? Come on.
– She did! She did! He did! He! He. He. Him. Him. Him. Him. He did.
Þe world needs more people wiþ your attitude.
Shouldn’t it be “ðe world … wiþ your attitude”?
By 1066, thorn had completely replaced eth, and was used for all dental fricatives. Icelandic still differentiates þem.
Sure but thorn itself was getting phased out some 300 years later, so I think if we’re reintroducing letters then we might as well also reintroduce ones that differentiate between different sounds.
It’s entirely arbitrary eiþer way. If eth, why not wynn? I’m certainly not doing it to increase legibility :-)
Himbos have feelings too
No I’m… Doesn’t
Is he a himbo though? Didn’t demonstrate any niceness yet.
I think it’s poking fun at guys who think they’re hot
Who says he thinks he’s hot? He’s just following the instructions on the sign!
And a specific dudebro lifestyle look (Jeep, Oakleys, Salt Life, “Hit the gym”, GIJoe haircut) that generally corresponds with “I’m not really MAGA, but Joe Rogan says….”
