this story has a lot
of rednecks.
Seriously, boys.
I say we take the new
A.R., strap that sucker to
the Jeep, and see how
many rabbits we can
pick off.
There y'all
go. three domestics and a beer
and coke.
yeah, man. Even
Bob Barker castrates
his pets. Not to mention
the deal of doin' it at
home...in comfort.
Genius.
Now, you
know I love
brutalizing critters, but I got a
'mower competition bright 'n
early at 11 in
the AM.
Boy,
when're you
gonna get a
real job?
As soon as
my slip-fall
settlement runs
out, and not a
second
sooner.
Back off,

special thanks to:
Aw, Keith, if
you weren't so
creepy I'd really
appreciate
that.
Don't
your momma know we
got eleven kids? Whatre
we supposed to do with
the other six?
Don't drink
those, dummies.
They're for table
three.
Hey there,
dew-drop.
babeee...
Hrm.
Shut up
and scoot
over.
Umcan we
have our beer,
please?
Ow.
hey
now!
Just a sec,
But
sugar. it's getting
ho
cant a lady
take 2 seconds
to rub her
corns?!
Uh...
Anyways, I think
Britney's tryin' to get
me fired.
Keith, spit
in this beer,
willya?
I actually heard
that...
Uh,
no thanks.
How you
figgur'?
ever since I got
lefty done She's been
actin' crazy jealous. I
mean, I know I'm half way
to every man's dream, but
it ain't right to judge
someone based
strictly on their
sensuality.
i mean, Shed be
a cute girl too if
she did a sit-up every
once and a while.
You
can really
buy those one
at a time?
Well, If I wind up
layin face down in a
gutter with one boob
cut out, you know the
redhaired witch that
done it.
Yeah, I should
probably get home
too. one of our
sitters has a rule
about stayin after
two a.m.
meanwhile...
Zox?
Zox!?
ZOX!!!
Ba-ba-ba-da,
do-do-dee-do,
Doncha know that yer
toxiiiiiic!
There you are.
Do you have the
serums organized
and ready toHello?
GRAG-NAK
IT, ZOX!
Fessur, RE-lax.
its totally under
controlall the
serums are mixed
and colorcoded.
>sigh<...Why
don't you take your
fifteen minutes
before we abduct
the humans.
You tha'
boss,
boss!
Just make
sure you bring a
ring. I tried using
a piece of string as
a stand-in once, and
apparently it ain't as
romantic as the
movies make it
out.
BAM! She'll
look back at me,
and there I'll be on
one knee.
Hey
ya'll?
Watcha do is
take'er into the
hardware store, look
around like yer lost,
and then outta nowhere
you slide a two inch nut
on her and promise to
replace it with a
half carat.
Um,
fellas...does
anyone else see
that incredibly
bright light?
>sniffle<
dang, man...I'd
marry ya.
she
ain't gonna know
what hit her. when
that big ole trucks
headlights wash over
us...her life's
Keith, What the
gonna change.
hell are you
talkin' about?
DOES ANYONE
ELSE SEE THAT
Romance, man.
HORRIFYINGLY
Ro-mance.
BRIGHT LIGHT?
Sorry
I'm late. I fell
asleep on the toilet
again.
Uhyes.
Space
ship?
>Whew!<
I was afraid
someone slipped
me another
roofie.
If
that AIN'T a
spaceship, I'll
eat that sweatSon, dont
crusted A-shirt
be tacky. it's
off yer
called an
back.
A-shirt.
A-shirt?
You mean
my wife-
What're
yall staring
aOhdang.
Sodoes this
mean the Scientologists are
right?
beater?
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
It's like a 90
day deal. You diet,
work out, and when it's
over you're totally
ripped. Hand me the
memory wipe.
a few minutes later...
they probably
got the guy that
PhotoShopped the
president's birth
certificate.
zzzzzzzz...
I
don't buy
it
uuuhhh
wha? huh?
Where
where the
heck am I?
Just relax
Ricky,they'll be
done in a
sec.
how
would you
know that?
You
might say this
ain't my first
rodeo.
Zox said
he color
coded them.
lessee, it's
the teal
one.
I thought we
wiped the memory
of all the rednecks
we abducted. Why's
this guy all like, "Hey
Zox, we needa yada,
yada..."
Apparently, Keith's
propensity for abusing his
head has made him immune to our
best mind-wiping drugs. So, Adoyan
Abductions worked a deal that keeps
our trips to earth a secret, and
Keith up to his ears in do-ityourself probe kits.
Keith, how do
you know
these...these
THINGS!?
Buddy, I been
tellin' y'all I was
abducted by aliens
for years.
They ALL
look teal? Why
couldn't you just
leave the labels on
instead of organizing
them by incredibly
similar shades of
blue!?
It's not MY fault
you guys don't know
your colors. Teal has a
whimsical hint of aqua
green in it. Powder and Sky
Blue are non-clashing
shades suitable for a
baby's room or a
heavenly day spa.
Inject these
rednecks and lets
get going! We still
have the Saturian and
Martians after
this.
We
all figured that
was just Keith crazy
talk! Yunno, like the
death threats and
promises of financial repayment.
zzzzzzzzzz...
If I
get stuck
with that thing,
you an' me are
gonna dance
#$%-beatin'
style.
I'm
trying to figure
that out, but David
Bromstead here didn't
make it easy. Zox,
come show me which
one is "teal."
Which one
is the
Memory
Wipe?!
Zox, just
help Allen find
the stupid
injections!
What?
No way. That's
not how we
learn.
C'mon now,
everybody just
take'er easy
Take'er
easy!? I say we
tear through as
many of these
smurfs as we can
until they take
us home!
Fine, if you
want to coddle
him...
You
guys are so
high maintenance.
gimmie
those.
Look, seeyou
have powder blue, sky
blue, and Teal. See?
Whimsical, right?
GRRRRRR
Hey!
uh...
yeah, yeah.
One for
you..
zzzzzzzzzzz-
and one
for the gut
with legs...
and
you
YEOOOOW!!!
HA! Gut
with legs.
good one,
zox.
Uh...fellas?
Where are
we!?
Well, there's
the long story,
and the short
story...
Yessir.
Should I drop
off the Saturian
sedative on my
way?
Yunno, the
empty syringes
look kinda
powder blue
to me.
NO thanks. I'd
better deliver that one
myself. Fessur's still
touchy about last time.
Just when I think he's "over
it," he lays an egg and
gets all sensitive
again.
Am
I going to
have to have a
color theory
class? I mean, how
is it that the color
blind guy is the only
one that knows the
difference between
powder blue and
teal?
Color...
what?
Can
somebody
please tell me
Zox you
idiot...
Abduction.
Probing.
Stabbing.
Dude, Zox I
REALLY don't think
this was memory
wipe.
Wha? No way
ohyeah. I guess
powder blue an teal
ARE kinda similar.
you injected
these morons with
the combat
enhancers?!
e!!!
rumbl
What's going
on, Zox?!
Welp. I either
gave you superpowers or killed you.
Guess we'll find out
together, right?
whoa.
Huh?
Oh, yes.
GAAAAAAAAH!
WELL, THAT
ANSWERS
THAT.
WOW.
THAT is one big
mullet.
And
That

Okay, okay. So they

How
long will we

Adoyan Abductions
peddle their business
of torturing poor,
filthy, stupid
humans?
No way...
oh great. Now

mutilation?!
Um...that
was a lot of
information.
Are we answering the part
about experimentation, greed,
or standing
up?
Are you
with me?
Today, when we
board that Abduction
ship, well teach corporate Adoy a lesson
it won't soon
forget!
Speaking
of forgetting,
don't you dare
forget to stop by
the Pink Peace
bookstore to pick
up my new book
"DiDinetics: My
god is pinker
than your
god."
ewwwww.
zzzzzzzzzz...
What
would you say was
the best part of your
time here at Adoyan
Abductions?
I concur.
Which is why I'm so
happy to be here
for your exit
interview.
Yeah, I was
just thinking
that..."taco
night"
Sweet!
On the "sex"
question, can
you write in
"yes" instead
of "male?"
I got a question.
How is it that aliens
from across the galaxy
speak English?
They're
check-boxes.
it wouldn't be
practical.
Maybe you
should ask
why you
speak
Adoyan.
Well, ain't
that a kick in
the teeth.
WHAT was
that?
The Saturian
woke up, man!
It's like some
kind of jacked-up
sequel!
What's
goingooph!
Someone's
gotta do something! Not me,
but SOMEONE!
Soon, my
dear Fessur,
we'll be
together
again.
Mrs.
Didi, we're
approaching the Adoyan
Abductions vessel. We'll

good vampire
all i

reading twilight again
and call it a day.
Watcher step.
There's a 2.4 inch drop
at the enda that ramp
that'll have yer tail if

Narnia?
Yeah, c.s.
lewis gets me
pumped.
Well, Gordon
Ramsey has a new
show comin'

Hey, guys...did

Billy?
I think
I MIGHT fabricate a
spoiler for the new
spaceship, tape it off,
and maybe paint it Vols
orange. you okay,
britney?
...
Okay, those
combat enhancers
should have kicked in by
now, but I don't feel
any different.
That
doesn't sound
good...but I'm not
sure who Frank is...
also, who are you
again?
Uh...did you
guys know there's
a human asleep in
Frank's bunk?
I know
what you mean.
Normally by now
I...I...huh. what
was I saying?
Well,
for a second I
thought I was Frank... but
then I wasn't sure, so I said
"Frank's bunk" just in case it
wasn't me. You know, so I
wouldn't sound dumb.
OH MY GOSH,
wouldn't it be funny
if we had all lost
our memories?
Are
you in my head,
here? I swear,
totally what I was
going to say.
since you've
probably forgotten
how to fly this...this...
oh, golly I've forgotten
what this flying contraption is called...
I was going to
be like: "There's a
human on this ship?!
We better vaporize
that sucker!"
Yeah, You seem
like a decision-maker...
I really wish we all knew
each other.
I say if none of us
have memories we just call
reset on the whole day.
Besides, I think I might
like humans...
END.
