Meet the boys!
Benjamin's in IT and Benicio is in Human Resources. But they like to pester each other during the day...

Panel 1: Benjamin, a large fat rat, leans into Benicio's cubicle. Benjamin: Hey, can you help me with a trip to the supply closet? Benicio: Sure! Panel 2: Benicio is talking about calendar dates and sports teams. Benicio: I'm so excited. Benjamin, being a much heaver man, is leaning against the wall and struggling to keep up physically and in the conversation. Benjamin: Yeah Panel 3: Benjamin is doubled over, and Benicio is scanning him in by pulling his nametag to the door lock. Benjamin: Th-huff. Benicio: Lemme get that. Benjamin: Ye.. Benicio: Maybe let's do trips before lunch, okay? Benjamin: ...Yah.

P1: Benjamin: Oh Dippy Stixx, you fix everything that a hand job can't. P2: Benicio: I know I didn't help, dropping all my drama on you. P3: Benjamin: Don't say it like that... I'm just not used to caring this much. P4: Benicio: You were CARING? About work? About ME? Shucks! Benjamin: Listen, You! Benicio: I'm listening, I'm listening!

A trick - I'm posting early.
The treat - have a comic!

P1: Benjamin and Benicio cross the street to Vito's. P2: Benjamin: Did it strike you as odd...how close those two stood? P3: Lisa: Who are you, my father? They just wanted as much space from me as possible. For good reason. P4: Benicio: Plus Phyllis looked exhausted, I can't imagine what she was dealing with up there. P5: Phyllis: But who stays that late after hours to TALK? Lisa: I've heard enough from Lara. That Benicio can turn a five minute conversation into an hour. Phyllis: That tracks. P6: Benjamin: Phyllis is too professional Benicio: No, she's just a hard ass. Besides... P7: Benicio: ...Assuming two people can't be close would be homophobic! P8: Lisa intimately buckles Phyllis' seatbelt. Phyllis doesn't resist, but she looks angry as she blushes. Lisa: Let me get that for you. Your husband would kill me if I didn't bring you home safe.

I respect your feelings but also fat backs and back rolls go underappreciated so often

Honestly and truly live performance is magical and it IS the best way to view it. Unique things do happen on stage.

That said... It does NOT need to be the only way to see it. I'll take a final dress rehearsal recording, something. I would pay if it was affordable to own recordings.

I have to agree - I'd rather be forced to play differently to make my numbers go up than snout for marginal increases, though I understand you have to have some of them

But can we all agree that the FFX Sphere Grid system has ruined skill trees for so many

Hey all, September is going to be very busy for me! I'm trying to get the next Bens up but between visitors, trips, and *~Two~* Special Projects I need more time.

I am not giving up on this story! I just need to do other things before burnout sets in.

Because yeah, I do like to grab the mic and say bigger, having to outdo yourself every year isn't as fun, and honestly not what the bears are doing anyway. But that's me being lore-headed about it.

Like Range said, I personally find it fun to be a Personal goal deal - take an oversized piece of clothing with Fat Bear League ™️ branding, and grow in/out of. I also like playing as a "Coach"/encourager and that gives a fun dynamic.
(Also this prevents size creep year over year)
