This webcomic provides adorably vulgar examples of:

  • Blatant Lies: Virgil tells Lance the only way to get a girl is to lie, lie, lie!
  • Fanservice Faux Fight: Lance and Virgil (dressed up as Kirk and Spock) discover that pillow fighting between two girls can actually slow down time.
  • Floating Limbs; Lance and Vergil are drawn this way - they have only floating hands, feet, mouth and eyes. Other characters are drawn normally like humans with bodies.
  • Groin Attack: The green floating-limb guy hits a guy in the crotch for saying that he needs to find a woman to talk to. Apparently, women are not for talking. The attacked guy hits the ground and curls up in pain. Here.
  • My Future Self and Me: Lance travels back in time to warn himself that he will spawn the Anti-Christ.
  • Nonstandard Character Design: The two main characters Lance and Virgil are the only non-realistic characters, appearing like "slugs with floating". Everyone else is human or humanoid-looking.
  • Toilet Humour: The toilet comes to life and begs to not be used as a direct sperm disposal system.
