Punitive damages awarded to the landlord, to wit: The resident must get punched in the groin.
The fact that Keith actually stood up for Lazer Pony (technically) in this comic really shows how much he has matured through the comic.
I guess him being an evil corporate manager has given him perspective. He still hasn’t f**ked bad girl yet though…
I think it’s just Keith preventing himself from getting evicted, since he lives there too, and Gyrognome said he was going to evict them all.
Got agree with DouglasGrave on this one, Keith’s looking out for himself not LP, the sheer fact that he calls the hole “party grotto” instead of “LP’s room” cements it.
Those are separate caves. The party grotto was there first. http://superredundant.com/?comic=070-the-redundant-cave
And not a single nut-punch in sight…!
This is amazing! :D They actually won one over Gyrognome!
I feel like there should be a badge or icon or something of angry Gyrognome standing in that starburst like that.
For now. I foresee plenty of future crotch punches. Ah, hell, Gyrognome was going to do that anyway, might as well enjoy the win while they can.
Indeed! :D It’s like Christmas come early. :D
You crazy? Never say C-h-r-i-s-t-m-a-s near Good Girl!
Probably. ^_^
Gyrognome, you can raise the rent for more living space in the long run, and fixing up the place should be tax deductible too.
Considering that the entire neighborhood is built on a cavesystem gives some very interesting ideas for future plotlines, I’m thinking an organisation moving in next door fixing up their pat of the caves as an evil lair, underworld denizens attempting to invade and gets lost, potential mining operations… the list goes on.
But the knowledge that the place is potentially a deathtrap should lower the houseprices -> easily bought up by GG (or somebody else) who can go to become a housing mogul.
Okay, as much as I like the outcome, I do not understand that line of argument. The party grotto is not beneath the house as far as I can remember, so it’s structurally irrelevant, and I cannot make out any reason why Gyrognome should be responsible for that massive cave system. Did I miss something?
Gyrognome is responsible for the massive cave system because he is the landlord and the cave system makes it unsafe for him to rent it out to his various tenants.
My understanding of the last panel is that Gyro gives in because he realized that if he took it to court the entire cave system would be revealed and he’d have to pay for getting the problem fixed for *ALL* the houses instead of just the redundant league, which would almost certainly bankrupt him.
While the entrance to the Party Grotto is above ground, presumably the rest of it is below grade. However, its relevance to Keith’s argument is that an additional, hidden cave does not devalue the property, whereas the Party Grotto, with its highly-visible entrance denoting it as such, more likely does devalue the property.
As for the massive cave system, Gyrognome would be responsible for ensuring that the portion on his land collapsing does not cause the rest of the cave system to collapse, causing massive property damage to properties he does not own, and would presumably be liable for. Basically, it’s cheaper to repair and maintain his own cave (probably extracting the funds from his tenants) than to risk paying for the damage to other people’s properties.
I’m guessing Gyrognome also owns more than just their house in the neighborhood, so he wants to keep their mouths shut.
Indeed he does, as seen in comic #195
Even if it’s not directly underneath, a giant sinkhole right next to the house is still very relevant structure-wise.
“what the hell is this?”
says he, brandishing a piece of paper in front of the blind man
A true example of tenants extorting their landlord instead of working with him.
as it should be
Bogwombler, Gyrognome’s idea of working with his tenants consists of what is commonly called Assault & Battery.
And, if art imitates like, you sue the landlord because the company who built the homes was wiped out in the first round of lawsuits decades ago when the first of the houses “settled” up to the second floor windows. If your googlefu is good, search Kansas City Kansas, Turner, and subsidence…
HE’S BACK!
(And he has a new hat!)
Last panel: Lazer Pony say: “Taht would” ;-)
sorry had to point it, continue the good work :-)
Maybe “Taht” is the name of their suburb.
Good times.

LP might think he won, but I would be surprised if he wouldn’t get a groin punch if he starts gloating in his new basement
