Have a comic book about a cowboy with syphilis.

It has a musical number and everything.

Wow.

Wow.

I want to learn the "Ignorant Ignorant Cowboy" song and perform it karaoke-style.

Oh, good grief... 'doing womens' work'... how utterly delicious!

ahahahahaha ha ha what.

I love the footnote when Lucky's all, "Guess it went away!"*

*That's what he thought!

In case we were unable to follow that. And then the song that's about a woman he slept with, and he thinks that maybe he might have syphilis. Oh, dear. It's kind of weirdly postmodern, in a way.

[angevin2]

Talk about weirdly specific PSAs...

[tempestsarekind]

Yeah--and apparently Katey is the *only* person in town from whom one could get syphilis: all you other dudes who slept with women who are not Katey, no worries!

Cowboy with syphilis? Surely that's the whole point of "The Streets of Laredo"?
