Size Matters – Chapter 9, Act 3, Strip 84

With Halloween behind us, back to our regularly scheduled dick jokes. Don’t worry, we’re nearly done with them.

Riko makes an acute, if largely irrelevant, observation, and Yogi, boomer-bear that he is, can’t help but make an old-fashioned dick size joke. Admittedly, not going for a joke when the phrases “dick-measuring contest” and “yards” are hanging in the air would have taken an almost superhuman amount of restraint, and restraint was never Yogi’s strong suit.

Riko takes some umbrage at the assumptions underlying that old-fashioned joke, though. And you can’t help but agree with her…while the discussion of pleasure vs. size is often fraught, few people would fail to see some problems when the dimensions in question are measured in yards. And her observation regarding the fact that she and Yogi share the same lower body is also very accurate. Suggesting to her she should base future relationship choices on huge endowments comes with consequences for that lower body that he would feel as keenly as she. Apparently, Yogi has never thought about it that way.

Which is odd, really, given that they probably didn’t start sharing a lower body yesterday. One would think that they’d have discussed these matters a long time ago. But chances are that nobody in the audience has ever deeply considered the mechanics of a shared lower body either, so most of them will probably accept it, unless they have a moment to think about it more deeply. Fridge logic, it’s called. And the same goes for the idea that Riko has never examined her (and his) lower body in detail, in all of the years she’s shared it with Yogi. I understand her reluctance on some level, but it’s hard to see how she could have never been overcome by curiosity.

Anyway, the main take-away from today’s episode is: goal for Yuri Shinkai Gakuen!

And today’s lesson: If you share a lower body with a person of the opposite gender, don’t try to convince her to base relationship decisions on huge dick size. That lesson is probably pretty useless for just about anybody, but for the few people it might apply to it will be very useful, indeed.

More on Thursday.
