Uh, no, he doesn’t? If he never hid any bodies south of Main Street, it doesn’t imply he hid any bodies anywhere else… right? ~ [[User:VoidPhantom|VoidPhantom]] ([[User talk:VoidPhantom|talk]]) 21:23, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

:You have that backwards. If he'd buried bodies ''north'' of Main Street (or hadn't buried any at all), then he ''wouldn't'' take a drink. --[[User:Aaron of Mpls|Aaron of Mpls]] ([[User talk:Aaron of Mpls|talk]]) 22:10, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
 
::I have corrected this back in the explanation. Double negatives confuse people it appears.[[Special:Contributions/162.158.72.89|162.158.72.89]] 22:24, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
 
:: Technically, he could have buried bodies both north ''and'' south of Main Street, so having buried bodies north of Main doesn't necessarily mean he wouldn't take a drink for south of Main.  </pedant> [[User:CritterKeeper|CritterKeeper]] ([[User talk:CritterKeeper|talk]]) 16:00, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
 
 
The cop sitting at the desk has what appears to be a foot rest or pedal that deliberately has attention drawn to it with 'bump' marks. What does this represent? [[User:ClaireFreund|ClaireFreund]] ([[User talk:ClaireFreund|talk]]) 14:49, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the claimed date of the comic's release is wrong. Correct me if I'm wrong, but following the normal schedule, it should state the release date as April 5th, not April 3rd.[[Special:Contributions/162.158.74.141|162.158.74.141]] 14:59, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
 
: The transcript page lists the release date as April 6. [[User:TCMits|TCMits]] ([[User talk:TCMits|talk]]) 21:19, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
 
 
Reminds me, obliquely, of the occasional allusion to some of the honours granted to people by the Britsh government (in the name of the monarch, but many of them for party reasons). There's various subtypes that are more likely as rewards for political actions/long-service than for actual civic contributions to society. One level of a particular set is said to tend to be given to someone who knows roughly where bodies are buried. The next class of award goes to someone who knows ''exactly'' where they are. The highest version is reserved for those who are capable of showing everyone the actual shovel that was used. [[Special:Contributions/172.70.90.114|172.70.90.114]] 14:03, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
