When I was a kid, I LOVED Super Elastic Bubble Plastic. It definetly IS a party for one! But it's more fun with family and friends as this commercial attests:

Ah, once again KM shows herself to be totally clueless when it comes to the human condition. Unless that is Super Elastic Bubble Plastic in the pipe Vin’s holding, it’s highly unlikely he’d be offering to share. At least we now know that KM doesn’t do drugs.

Tomorrow we’ll see an angel whispering in one of Tommy’s ears and a devil doing the same on the other side. A floating head of Brandy may also make an appearance. Stand by for angst-filled days.

According to Wikipedia, Super Elastic Bubble Plastic lost favor partly due to its "noxious fumes". Apparently nobody told Vin about those.

Will he or won't he take the pipe? We'll probably have to watch him agonize over it for the next week.

How is it I never heard of super elastic bubble plastic until now? Jeez, I've been clueless about popular culture longer than I thought.

I can't decide if that's a scale model of the Discovery from "2001: A Space Odyssey" or, more likely, the ship from "Josie & the Pussy Cats in Outer Space."

Hey, didn't he date Libby's owner last year?

Two men hugging in a dark alley? Not too family friendly....

I always wondered what became of Dewey from "Malcolm in the Middle."

I thought he was sharing a Tootsie Roll pop with Tommy!

At any moments, I am expecting Mr. Wynter to walk into the alley with Eve as part of his Grand Tour of Santa Royale. Hilarity ensues.

Yahoonski, ha haaa!

Or maybe Brick from "The Middle." ("Paaarrrty.")

PS Mr. Wanders, when you put together the nominees for outstanding performance by an inconsequential character, please give consideration to the large waitress who served the onion rings Thank you

This is, of course, all Brandy’s fault.

I confess:

1. I thought Vin was toasting a mini marshmallow.

2. I LOVED the noxious fumes from Super Elastic Bubble Plastic (when I was too young to know why I loved it).

WEDNESDAY

Vin, Tommy always looks like hell. Truth be told, you don't look so good yourself.

"The drugstore should still be open. I'll just buy one of every medication on the shelves. I'll take the shortcut through Skid Row to save time!"

LOL KitKat.

When I saw Vin's crack pipe, I thought it was one of those wax pipes that they sold in the candy store when I was a kid. They had this gross sweet liquid in them that was delicious to a seven year old kid. It also looks like one of those bubble blowing pipes.

I am betting that Brandy is going to stroll through Shanty Town, see Tommy hitting the bubble pipe and it will confirm that she made the right decision in not accepting that onion ring.

LouiseF said...

Perhaps Brandy is planning to stroll down skid row at midnight on her way to the all-night CVS in hopes she can get some "pain relief" from HER old friend Vin.. I doubt she has health insurance, working at Food Scream.

I'm very disturbed that Gollum is offering to share precious.

Garnet said...

Maybe he's just offering Tommy a Chupa Chup?

MissScarlet said...

By the looks of Tommy's eyes today, I'd say it's already too late.

Chester the Dog said...

Where is his car?

KitKat said...

Just as Tommy is about to decline Vin’s offer, the burly waitress from The New Place on Oak Street steps onto the broken fire escape, falls on top of Tommy, and flattens him.

Chester the Dog, I think Tommy left his car parked in front of Brandy’s home and hoofed it over to Skid Row. I expect Brandy to show up tomorrow on her way to Druggie Mart.
