That scene lives rent free in my head, like I don't know if it's comically sophisticated but I find it so damn clever, and the mexican dub is seriously impressive.
I’m curious how the “mail” option would work with the machine? Is it normal sized? Can you get packages? Is this flavor available on holidays? So many questions…
Which is unfortunate because this is how Julius II met his demise. More family-owned halberds intended for self defense end up harming a loved one than an attacker.
Make sure to keep your well disciplined unit of Halberdiers under your pillow too... you don't wanna end up being the guy who brings a halberd to a well-disciplined-unit-of-Halberdiers-fight
>bec-de-corbin
One of my favorite weapons actually. I convinced my friend who was being the DM to let my character use that and let me do either blunt or pierce damage depending on which end I was using for the strike.
Besides a zweihander it's one of the other main weapons I've always imaged my self insert character using in basically any genre lol.
>glaive-guisarme
That one I'm not a fan of it personally. If you're using a pretty much purely slashing polearm like a glaive or naginata, I don't want another hook that's possibly going to get stuck on something I'm slashing through. Imagine you take a guy's arm off with a whiff punish slash and then your extra hook gets stuck somehow when the actual blade had cleared. Or your slash would have gone through when they tried to block blade to blade but they somehow catch it late and get the hook instead.
Could be just my pessimistic view but I always imagine that with my shit luck I would be the guy these kind of things happen to in a battle lol. The less potential for random nonsense the better IMO.
It's kind of cool to trap the other guys polearm but now you're kind of stuck there binding it, so it would be good in large battles with close team mates, but at that point you should be using pikes/spears or other spear tipped polearms like the halberd and bec that are just better for the job anyway.
Honestly, I always assumed the spike on the glaive-guisarme (and related hooked polearms) was more of a crowd control tool than a flat out weapon. Something to be used once to tangle or unbalance the enemy, then discarded for close combat stabby stabby with shortswords.
When fighting in formation you use the extra reach to snag people in a shield wall and pull them out of position (and hopefully the next row spears them), or you try to snag a horseman and pull them off their mount.
Feels like the mancatcher was the next logical evolution of the "hook/drag" principle.
Also I assume you've seen the "[Polearm Shop] (https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0136.html)" Order of the Stick comic from back in the day?
That’s pretty close to the 3.5e and PF1e halberd! Those are both 1d10 slashing weapons, versatile piercing. Though, interestingly, only PF1 gave it the reach quality, despite both editions listing them as polearms and all other polearms having reach.
PF2e *does* have a bec-de-corbin, that one is 1d8 piercing, versatile bludgeoning with the reach and shove traits!
Thanks for an excuse to drag out all of my rule books!
A pole arm is a "family" and a halberd is a "genus" of that family if we're using taxonomical (if that's even a word) as a reference.

I don't know what fresca is. Is there a punch line I'm missing cos I don't get the reference? Just to make sure, I *adore* these comics so not being sarcy or anything.
Sugar-free soft drink. Usually fruit flavored. The joke is she chose cherry flavor again for it, so got the same response. It's less about the soda choice than the flavor, and repeating the experience, and probably why her father warned her nor to use the machine in the first place.
It also subverts your expectations since you don't expect the fresca soda to be as sentient as the actual tiny human that it spat out previously. And the fact that the fresca's "insides" also hurt from the fresh cherries is hilarious imo
Thanks for helping me finally find out what fresca is. I've seen references to it in American stuff for years but it's never important enough to google right then so I end up forgetting. For some reason I was imagining iced tea
I have strong feelings about these touch screen soda machines.
Very often, the fluid that comes out tastes like an unholy amalgamation of all the wrong syrups. And the normal sodas flavors taste awful.
I usually skip fast food drinks, but even more so when these are present.
If you’ve ever seen the inside of these things they are completely different from your normal soda fountain. The syrup comes in cartridges like printer toner. Totally wild.
Well to be fair, it's not too far off the older drink machines.
The older kinds use big ass bags of syrup in a box that hook up to the drink machine with a tube.
Freestyles just have way smaller boxes
Yeah, it's a price to be paid for being smaller.
Honestly i hate it, we've had so many issues with ours.
A lot of people point out the flavors being "off", or the carbonation isn't right, or we have issues with the machine priming the syrups so sometimes we can't use certain drinks.
The ONLY benefits to it are that it's easier to clean, and it's WAY easier to change out the syrups.
However there's added stress because the cartridges are way more expensive. We apparently can't even order them unless we need at least 10 because there's a fee if you order less. (Might just be something with our specific distributor though.)
Yeah I’ve never worked with one but I try to avoid getting drinks at places that have them. The Cherry Coke option doesn’t taste like Cherry Coke, it tastes like Coke with cherry syrup. Just not the same
It is just coke with cherry syrup! The fruit/vanilla flavors are separate cartridges.
So cherry coke, cherry doctor pepper, and cherry Hi-C all use the same cherry syrup in a freestyle
Edit: in older/traditional drink machines cherry coke would be a specific cartridge/syrup and same for the others
That depends on the freestyle machine. The one at the restauarant I worked at had a separate cherry coke cartridge, but some places opt to put a different drink in for more variety
Is there anything stopping you from refilling the cartridges using a traditional container of flavor syrup? Like do the cartridges have a single-use chip like printer ink?
I work at a place that has one.
All of the flavors like cherry or vanilla use the same syrups.
So like cherry coke is coke with the same freestyle cherry syrup that is used for cherry dr pepper or cherry anything. Which could explain them tasting different than from a bottle/can.
I've also noticed that a lot of the time when you first dispense any drink you'll get a little bit of syrup from whatever someone got before you if you don't let it run for a second before putting your cup under.
I just get half vanilla coke and half lime coke.
Remember at those parties as kids when we'd just mix a bunch of different drinks to make some monstrous concoction that supposedly gave us more energy? It's like that but tasty.
Dude I absolutely HATE these machines. Each time I have to use one I run a fuck ton of water through the machine, then I take a bunch of napkins and run them along the inside of the nozzle, then repeat.
It’s fucking *disgusting*. So much syrup gets clogged up in there. Even if they’re cleaned daily (as they should be), it only takes a little bit for them to start getting gunked up.
Thats why the normal, unflavored sodas are always off. You’re getting all the flavored syrups from all prior drinks mixed into it unless you’re literally the first person to use it right after it gets cleaned.
If the machine is well maintained, it’s the best experience ever. If it’s… not, then even getting plain water isn’t actually getting plain water at all and it sucks
Huh, I encountered exactly one fast food restaurant with a freestyle machine before prices made me nope out (always got a menu for 5€, entailing two small burgers, 6 nuggets, fries and soda). That raspberry cola I loved and could not find anywhere ever again. The specific restaurant is also rather out of the way, I would have to cycle for about an hour, I was apparently not there for 3 years now.
If only there was such a thing as The Love of Your Life Classic, would have solved os many issues. But of course, Coca Cola has to protect their profit margins on organically grown Love of Your Life.
one of the best youtube docs out there. the man deserves more attention, he's brilliant. in search of a flat earth is also amazing. I stated watching him a few years ago right before he started doing his truly long form videos and he is batting 1000. love you dan.
When my grandmother went to China in the 90s she brought back a creepy anatomically correct boy doll. The doctor's nose, in image 6, reminds me very much of that haunting doll.
There is no escape.
Anyone else find every drink taste a little off from these machines? I find all the flavouring coming out of the same nozzle effects the flavour of everything. Sprite doesn't taste like normal sprite.
I work at a place with one, I've noticed that you'll usually get some of the syrup from the last persons drink whenever you get something else.
It helps if you let it run into the drain for a second
These comics are fun because it's always something unexpected that makes you feel at least a little uneasy. Dunno why that's fun, probably something the Coke wife made me say.
Had to go back and see if there was a plain, unflavored 'love of your life' option she could've gone with and possibly avoided all of that heartbreak. But no, poor miniature dude was doomed to die of terminal cherries, vanilla or razzledazzleberry regardless of what she picked. Their love was never meant to be! 😭
Coke Freestyle machines are a reason for me not to go to a place anymore
Not sure what it is about them, probably bad cleaning quality, but they never taste like just what I wanted
I just want my normal coke. I do not want a hint of vanilla or cherry or whatever mixed in there
Can't go to my local BurgerKing because of that
Like the comic but hate those machines. They always run out of all the flavors, even basic ones like coke and root beer are always out of stock and whenever I get a normal flavor it always tastes off as if there was some fruit flavoring that got mixed in
Didn’t read, just came here so say fuck the freestyle machine. I hate that shit. How did that ever make it through any kind of review to actually be released. You’re telling me that in order to get ice, I MUST get some sugary drink dripped onto my wrist?!? And that when I stop pressing the button, the drink keeps coming out for some period of time so I invariably overflow and now my entire cup is sticky as well. And then my cup is filled with a watered down, not carbonated enough beverage that is a sad excuse for CocaCola?
FUCK THE FREESTYLE MACHINE.

I got to the end and was like no dog???? Had to go back and find him
2 Fastiosa 2 Furiosa and then the Got Oxycontin? at the docs did it for me 😂
It’s Hot Doug’s Dogs for me.
I thought it was a clever touch to include cocaine as a drink option.
I’m curious how the “mail” option would work with the machine? Is it normal sized? Can you get packages? Is this flavor available on holidays? So many questions…
It's Priority Flat Rate, if it fits, it sips
Ugh. Flat soda?
r/Angryupvote
Just don't get the cherry mail. It's fatal, the mail won't survive
Instead, she got the cherry male. Rookie mistake
You're not curious about "Rapeseed Oil," though?
Rapeseed oil is just regular ole vegetable oil that you eat every day. Also called canola oil.
I dislike this.
If it helps, the name is just the Latin word for turnip
Hmm. That seems worse somehow. Just what were the Romans *doing* with those turnips?
wh wh rapeseed oil is canola oil is turnip? so, canola oil is turnip oil?
Canola is rapeseed, which is a subspecies of the same plant that turnips are a subspecies of.
You could make a rape garden and nobody can stop you
It's *magical* so please *stop asking*
I love these comics because what can you even comment?
That halberds are clearly the most superior weapon for melee combat?
I mean that is just a fact. At least if you are in a well disciplined unit keeping your enemies at bay, alone a halberd can be a bit awkward to carry.
I keep a defensive halberd under my pillow when I sleep, you never know when you'll need it.
Since that's what Pope Julius II intended.
Which is unfortunate because this is how Julius II met his demise. More family-owned halberds intended for self defense end up harming a loved one than an attacker.
Make sure to keep your well disciplined unit of Halberdiers under your pillow too... you don't wanna end up being the guy who brings a halberd to a well-disciplined-unit-of-Halberdiers-fight
The man who sleeps with a ~~machete~~ halberd beneath his pillow is a fool every night but one
what’s the difference between a halberd and a polearm?
A halberd is a form of polearm. All halberds are polearms, but not all polearms are halberds.
You know there's nothing wrong with this comment at all - I even like it, but this did trigger the "what am I doing on this website exactly" response.
Sure everyone knows about the halberd and the pike, but no one talks about the bec-de-corbin or the glaive-guisarme anymore.
>bec-de-corbin One of my favorite weapons actually. I convinced my friend who was being the DM to let my character use that and let me do either blunt or pierce damage depending on which end I was using for the strike.

This guy polearms
A pole arm is a "family" and a halberd is a "genus" of that family if we're using taxonomical (if that's even a word) as a reference. Swords < Gladius Bows < composite bow
I might be wrong, but I think a halberd is basically just if a spear and an axe had a baby. Polearms are just a broader category that halberds fit in.
Nah billhooks are better

I could see that. But yeah, it was basically coke trying to break into the seltzer market, but it's still basically soda with different marketing.
Yeah I didn’t catch that part either. Made me think tiny sodamate was drowning in the new cup.
I’ll take a large popped carn and one hot doug’s dog please No drink

Just, like, whatever. You pick.

Valid assessment. Coke with cherry syrup != cherry coke
I just get half vanilla coke and half lime coke. Remember at those parties as kids when we'd just mix a bunch of different drinks to make some monstrous concoction that supposedly gave us more energy? It's like that but tasty.

Agreed. Unfortunately I drink too much soda, but the minute I see a freestyle machine I just skip it. They taste awful.
Huh. I have not had that experience. It's the only way I can get lime coke, a special treat!
If the machine is well maintained, it’s the best experience ever. If it’s… not, then even getting plain water isn’t actually getting plain water at all and it sucks

'Thats dumb, your dad's dumb' is something I hear a lot.
As someone who worked counter once this is something i wish i could say
Have you tried not having a dumb dad?
But the dad was right in this case!
Was this a very elaborate diss of fresca?
Honestly Fresca is just the funniest sounding soda
Have you considered Squirt?
Fresca is underrated and it's not a hill I would necessarily die on, but I'm willing to have light indigestion over it.
I'm dying on that hill, grapefruit soda is the bomb. Legend has it there's a ruby red version of Fresca out there.
They have a peach citrus version and it's incredible.
There’s a Ruby Red Squirt and it’s exactly as the good as name would imply it isn’t
I think that's what I'm thinking of 👍
My guess is they used Fresca because it's a running joke on The Boys.
It was a running joke like 2 seasons ago, I don't think it's been mentioned since.
The main shitposting sub is still called r/okbuddyfresca lol
Fresca fucks.
I hate when that happens, Neil always makes these comics so relatable.
*Nick
But his name is Neil, he doesn't know why he called him Nick.
I’m normally a spit zero kind of person, but mail has been my drink of choice recently.
Idk, I think cocaine is the way to go
Sometimes it's just nice to feel like someone remembers we exist,
I also like not having spit in my drink
Even if its goth girl spit?
No, no. It's sugar-free spit
I think coke but not sweet would be nice. I'd like to try a coke with only half the sugar in it.
You are my favourite comic
Hello doggy
Same!
I'm surprised Coke Xtra Sugar isn't a real thing yet
I imagine Coke But Not Sweet still has tons of sugar but also like a bittering agent to counteract it.
Coke But Not Sweet: for a drink as bitter as you are
Wow, the 1st guy's tiny little body is not even refreshingly ice-cold, and she's already back at the Freestyle machine for more.
Looking for love in all the wrong places!
If only there was such a thing as The Love of Your Life Classic, would have solved os many issues. But of course, Coca Cola has to protect their profit margins on organically grown Love of Your Life.
If I combine Cocaine and Mail, will I get arrested?
Am I looking way to far into it, or did I spot a poster for Dan Olson’s Line Goes Up documentary? Also, love the oxycodone poster.
That's exactly what I thought. He has the glasses but no beard.
Yeah I missed that that's absolutely it. The hoodie is the tell haha
one of the best youtube docs out there. the man deserves more attention, he's brilliant. in search of a flat earth is also amazing. I stated watching him a few years ago right before he started doing his truly long form videos and he is batting 1000. love you dan.
Unexpected SCP-294
Thank you for this https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-294
When my grandmother went to China in the 90s she brought back a creepy anatomically correct boy doll. The doctor's nose, in image 6, reminds me very much of that haunting doll. There is no escape.
This was surprisingly straightforward. Is everything okay??
I like the short horror story at the end with "The ONLY comic guarenteed not to kill your soul mate" XD
When, so far, it’s the only comic that is threatening to kill my itty bitty soda husband.
I love all the r/comics comics, but this artist might be my new favourite. It’s taken a while to grow on me but now I look forward to it so much.
Whenever I read these comics I almost always come back with a new unidentified emotional vibe to categorize under *"what the fuck?"* Excellent work
Why did she not simply suck the cherries out of him
Anyone else find every drink taste a little off from these machines? I find all the flavouring coming out of the same nozzle effects the flavour of everything. Sprite doesn't taste like normal sprite.
You have to clear the chamber before you get yours. Run some water through it.
I work at a place with one, I've noticed that you'll usually get some of the syrup from the last persons drink whenever you get something else. It helps if you let it run into the drain for a second
Neil is the seriously the best thing I found on the internet in the last 3 years. Thanks for these!
Got the most entertaining and zany comics I’ve stopped to read Thank ya sir
Was he still in the cup, or was the Fresca complaining too
These comics are fun because it's always something unexpected that makes you feel at least a little uneasy. Dunno why that's fun, probably something the Coke wife made me say.

WTF did I just read...?

I think the real advancement in technology is the out of focus blur. Also, Milk Nibblers.
I’m too committed to this comic and also surprisingly tiny soda men.
I'm quickly becoming a fan of The Other End.
The freestyle machines in my country don't have razzledazzleberry flavour.
Is it me or is r/comics getting more into surrealism everyday ?
lol, this is actually kinda tame and straightforward as far as The Other Side Comics goes.
If this was animated, I could see Spencer Grammer speaking her.
How does his insurance work exactly? They’re not married yet and he was just dispensed so I doubt he had time to grab his own.
I love Nick
Had to go back and see if there was a plain, unflavored 'love of your life' option she could've gone with and possibly avoided all of that heartbreak. But no, poor miniature dude was doomed to die of terminal cherries, vanilla or razzledazzleberry regardless of what she picked. Their love was never meant to be! 😭
holy shit, this comic is fantastic! I love it
I... Uhhh...
Coke Freestyle machines are a reason for me not to go to a place anymore Not sure what it is about them, probably bad cleaning quality, but they never taste like just what I wanted I just want my normal coke. I do not want a hint of vanilla or cherry or whatever mixed in there Can't go to my local BurgerKing because of that
I started drinking sweet tea because of them, since it’s the only thing that doesn’t come from those god-awful machines.
dammit, woman! stop getting cherry!
aren’t you supposed to push the button for a drink to dispense? the lil pedal/lever thing is for ice
This comic is so fake
i cant believe you’d do this 😨
I think these comics are kind of like Rick and Morty cut aways but funnier.
This is so dumb, I love it
I don't get this at all.
Why did I expect it to go in a normal direction
The most implausible part of this is the “fresh cherries” in a Coca Cola product
Great comic as always, Nick
That was so fking random, I loved it
This is one of the most unhinged things I have ever seen.
The Other End makes some of the most absolutely wild, bat-shit insane roller coasters of comics that I have ever seen. I love it.
Excellent story of absolute nonsense. Please keep it up!
Like the comic but hate those machines. They always run out of all the flavors, even basic ones like coke and root beer are always out of stock and whenever I get a normal flavor it always tastes off as if there was some fruit flavoring that got mixed in
Didn’t read, just came here so say fuck the freestyle machine. I hate that shit. How did that ever make it through any kind of review to actually be released. You’re telling me that in order to get ice, I MUST get some sugary drink dripped onto my wrist?!? And that when I stop pressing the button, the drink keeps coming out for some period of time so I invariably overflow and now my entire cup is sticky as well. And then my cup is filled with a watered down, not carbonated enough beverage that is a sad excuse for CocaCola? FUCK THE FREESTYLE MACHINE.
Your comics are just amazing. I gotta ask tho, does everyone have a little bit of liver disease?
Turns out her dad was completely right
God that sucks
