That last panel got me right in the ol perfect-comedic-timing.

Our Truth Vase is a metal sculpture that my husband brought back from Africa. I constantly place it on the mantelpiece, and he constantly moves it to an obscure location at the back of a shelf because in an earthquake it might crash to the floor and kill a child.

This is why I subscribe. The first panel. Jesus. What a delivery.

Glorious Patreon Pixels! We could only dream of this level of detail in the old days.

Masterclass this one. First panel is a standalone joke, minimal art required while still looking great (good for delivering on time), a gag in the middle you'll blink if you miss and then a punchline.
Nicholas Williams
I stand by it.
NotAnon
The beat panel really sells the execution of the punchline I think
Rex Mantooth
I cant help but wonder if Lyle got the Truth Vase from the same location/website as the dildo used to "dildo it for $1" for the Perky Pervert. We know he found the bra he enjoyed licking on the ground, but I don't think folks are apt to leaving Etruscan pottery lying about.

You know Patreon can now use this quote in any context it pleases right TONIGHT: LIVE COVERAGE OF THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

I really like that you can see their gigantic dongs.

Fuckin' PUNCHLINE. Way to go. This is comicin' at the highest level.

Lyle's world is more real than Teodor could even dream of. Too real, one might say.
Vincent Verweij
He was too busy buttfucking to care about his 1040

It would have been the perfect alt text

The Etruscans loved pornography, of course back then it was called "ancient erotic symbolism" I think. Plus, when did two dudes buttfuckin stop being erotic?

He promised to think about castles next time he had a chance.

I have a vintage Bakelite duck sculpture that doubles as a clothes brush. It manages to live in the uncanny valleys of aesthetics, function and antiquity all at once. My wife hates it.
Brian Brake
The recycling bin and what goes into it

We have a hand painted wooden Christmas ornament that is either a bear singing from a hymnal or a bear with a large black nose. It’s divided us. Next Christmas I’ll replace it with something similar to this and see if it heals the rift in our family.

I had no idea where this one was going to land and it was a perfect touchdown
Eli Parker
I like how characters not feeling anything at all toward gay sex has become a recurring motif.
zoë hayden
where did lyle get an erotic etruscan vase? i like that this is the sort of art object he would seek out
Joe Locastro
I love that Lyle can admit when he's been gotten. That poignant pause.

an entire cabinet devoted to coffee cups in a house of two people only one of whom drinks coffee tragedy of the commons writ small i tell you what
Alex Moscovitch
I sent to a few friends who wont put it on the internet. I laughed so hard when I read this that co workers came and closed my office door. Lyle, never ever change.
Omnithea
So stupid. 10/10
Finbar Clougherty
Lyle & T are possibly the worlds best parents to a young impressionable otter
Chris Onstad
This made me laugh
Chris Onstad
Hey, give it a shot if you think it will get new people into enjoying the work.
Chris Onstad
Hey, the guy dabbles in this world.
Linus Lee
The Etruscans don't get enough credit for their pottery OR their taxation policies.
Alex Moscovitch
Oh lord, i have never wanted to share a comic with literally everyone i know like this one. I won't, but man.
Justin Schardin
The funniest part of this is just Lyle having an Etruscan vase of any kind.
Chris Onstad
Can’t believe I missed that opportunity
b.zap
Ace of Vase!
Phineas Jones
As a guy who is meeting with his accountant today Teodor's last panel is speaking to me most

Lest you think this is some sort of passive-agrresive, misogynistic slight regarding the intelligence of women, I assure you that my partner is very much in charge and I drink her bathwater

A collection of 37 dusty plastic 6-pack holders hanging from our kitchen wall because my wife loves turtles and I don't(?) or something
Matthew Harris
Ask a stupid question, T
Matt Mitchell
Haha. I like how “actual”-ness is a Lyle-adjacent concept (“I...I was sober, sir. I don't know now any of that information can be considered actual”
Josh Egbert
"Daylight" Perfect. No notes.
Jay Williams
LOL. Daylight. That’s awesome. Lyle is just the best kind of asshole.
