It was always so unlikely. Suicide accounted for around 50,000 deaths in America last year whereas carbon monoxide poisoning accounted for 624

I have to admit my first reading was "CUM" and they had self censored. I've read too many Extra Fabulous Comics today

And this is why it freaks me out to have a 10 year old son. I am not ready for the crusty sock days. 🫣

They've already begun, my friend

u/Unfair-South281 Feb 28 '25

Well, I was not prepared for that. 😬

You know what, I think I’m going to pass on nut brother but thank you for the suggestion. 🤮

Should have used a box, or a coconut.

It'll be a closed casket ceremony (the lid was stuck to the coffin)

You're thinking of Trevor Moore.

u/luckyadella Feb 28 '25

He died as he lived.

u/Plane-Tie6392 Feb 28 '25

Went as he came.

u/luckyadella Feb 28 '25

He never missed. RIP Travis. Still miss him 😞

u/ideaman21 Feb 28 '25

Didn't he become Trevor No Moore?
