“When Parker Met Guy” Page 12: Turtle
Saturday, September 5th, 2009Homeless people are crazy.
And hey, look, someone stole one of my videos and put it on break.com (front page now) and then that was linked on digg.com and now it’s one of the most popular topics on there. Digg it for fun!
I’m participating in the Avon Walk in Los Angeles in a couple weeks, walking 39 miles in two days to raise money for the fight against breast cancer.  Please visit my personal Avon Walk page and consider making a donation!  I’m more than halfway to my goal of $3,600 and I could really use your support.  Thank you very much!

Always great to see a new page.
Silly Parker and her ability to always get into crazy situations.
September 5th, 2009 at 11:42 am
…Turtle?
September 5th, 2009 at 3:45 pm
i hope they’re enjoying their burgers, while poor parker is uncounscious
September 5th, 2009 at 4:12 pm
Poor Parker! I wonder what she’ll do when she wakes up to see a hobo in her hospital room pretending to be her father.
September 5th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
“Her name is Turtle” is now my new catchphrase.
September 5th, 2009 at 5:43 pm
Was anyone else reminded of Turtle Wexler from “The Westing Game”?
September 5th, 2009 at 5:51 pm
It might not have been intentional, but I’ve the weirdest feeling I’ve seen that older homeless guy before. To be honest, he looks a bit like Stasia’s dad. But I’m probably wrong, since Stasia’s career would’ve already started by then. (Wrote her first song at 14, and this looks to be less then 10 years ago…)
Anyways, great comic!
Always a pleasant surprise to see another page up.

This shit is getting hilarious.
September 5th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
Wait… that first bum looks almost familiar… he reminds me of someone…
Kinda crazy, scraggly grey beard… oh no… it can’t be…
It’s not Parker’s father, it’s Guy & Daisy’s father. Getting called something other than your own name all the time would make one off-kilter enough to earn the nickname Crazy Daisy.
BTW, Eisu, nice cover with the extremely tinted doors and windows.

I like turtles? LOLOL I GET IT I GET IT! I like the hobo bike yoinkage, although why are hobos hanging out in front of a hospital? I guess the free swag is why or maybe to rummage through disposed medical supplies? Who knows but now they’ve got a sweet ride!
September 5th, 2009 at 9:19 pm
… Does that homeless bum look familiar?
September 6th, 2009 at 8:15 pm
“Her name is turtle.” Love it. Like, what a sweet hobo! No thought necessary, he knows that if she was his daughter? Her name would be Turtle. I want him to be my city’s hobo.
September 6th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
Heeyy, “The Bean Trees” by Barabara Kingsolver !
First thing that popped into my mind ! (Taylor named her child Turtle)
September 7th, 2009 at 1:08 am
“Her name is Turtle” can be placed somewhere along the lines of “his name was Robert Paulson”, admit it, now you are imagining that scene with turtle……..
September 7th, 2009 at 11:10 am
Is a random kid being found and named Turtle a reference to Barbara Kingsolver’s book “The Bean Tree”?
September 7th, 2009 at 9:00 pm
PLEASE either update daily or just end the story so I don’t keep checking back here every day T.T
September 7th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
^ Um, the story is ended. These are bonus flashbacks. No one says you have to check everyday. Besides, most comics that update EVERY DAY are crappy.
September 8th, 2009 at 3:59 am
Man, I forgot this was still going! I stopped checking in at the end of the official story and I decided to re-read today and discovered that IT CONTINUED. Ha, neat. I love life’s surprises.
September 8th, 2009 at 2:27 pm
I guess this is why Guy didn’t want the story told, but i’m sure he’ll come be a hero some how.
After the burgers
September 8th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
Not all daily comics are crappy. And did’t they say when this started up again that it would be daily again?
September 12th, 2009 at 7:11 am
Hmm… that homeless guy’s design reminds me a bit of Stasia’s father haha.
I look forward to see what happens next!
September 12th, 2009 at 10:05 am
But someone stole one of your videos…isn’t that bad?
Man, there sure are a lot of bums around that hospital.
September 12th, 2009 at 11:46 am
“Free bike, sweet.”
September 14th, 2009 at 9:51 am
That’s it! When have kids my first daughter will be named Turtle!
September 18th, 2009 at 7:55 am
When is the next page being released?
September 20th, 2009 at 9:19 pm
I wish my name was Turtle.
September 21st, 2009 at 9:57 pm
Hee. My cat’s name is Turtle.
September 25th, 2009 at 12:54 pm
ahahahahahahaha

September 26th, 2009 at 7:47 pm
Excuse my impatience, but I would like to continue reading this….. Please update… pretty please with a large colourful cherry on top.
September 27th, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Oh dear.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:14 pm
drakfeld:
Oh MAN, you just HAD to jinx it didn’t you? Eisu and Bobby were getting back into the groove, and you just had to start whining…
October 1st, 2009 at 1:24 pm
oh man! turtle! that one totally came from the left field that it was practically right field…now i want to name something turtle.
lookin’ forward to the next page!
October 4th, 2009 at 7:06 am
@ the impatient folks
Bobby updates when he feels like it. Complaining doesn’t serve to do anything but piss him off.
I check in once every 3-4 weeks and just forget about it most of the rest of the time. When I find that it’s been updated then hey, nice surprise.
October 4th, 2009 at 7:18 am
I actually wrote Pages 12, 13 and 14 on August 30. This is one of the very rare times when the wait isn’t my fault!
October 6th, 2009 at 6:38 am
Lol, Bobby, it’s never your fault; if you keep saying stuff like that you’ll spoil us :3
October 7th, 2009 at 9:18 am
Turtle’s “dad” looks like Last Blood’s Grady…?
And I hope Turtle is a reference to The Westing Game.
October 9th, 2009 at 10:42 am
Ha turtle!
I’m starting to think the doctors will decide that Parker’s gone mad when she wakes up and says that she isn’t called Turtle and that that’s not her dad…
October 9th, 2009 at 10:00 pm
When is the movie?
October 10th, 2009 at 1:29 am
Free comics. Sweet!
October 12th, 2009 at 9:42 am
please update amazing web comic but why Turtle?
October 16th, 2009 at 4:32 pm
if I were a hobo I’d probably be the guy who said “free bike…sweet”
October 20th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
Oooookkk that is….. Odd
October 23rd, 2009 at 1:54 pm
Update update update update update update… please?
October 24th, 2009 at 10:48 pm
Please Update soons?
Kthxbi
October 25th, 2009 at 1:39 pm
Great comic, poor Parker… her bike might never be found again.
Wonder what will happen next? We’ll see!
October 26th, 2009 at 6:08 pm
Bobby, why hasn’t Hollywood beaten a path to your door already? I mean Part I was brilliant! Oh wait, maybe that’s the problem.
October 26th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
It’s been a 51 days.
The crew is starving.
I think most of them are eyeing Captain Bobby and First Mate Eisu.
Always were the fattest, as they had more than the rest of us.
If only they would share that new comic…
Then maybe we wouldn’t have to, well, cannabalise them and abandon their website. D:
Of course, I could always be happy with a bit of Turtle Stew!
;D
October 28th, 2009 at 8:09 am
I can has next comic?
or incentive of a turtle?
please? -hands cookie-
October 29th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Oh my gawd!!! The homeless man is Ana’s DAD!!!!
October 30th, 2009 at 11:46 pm
This webcomic is a special one. I keep coming back periodically to look at particular panels.
Compared to the sarcastic, sometimes idiotic ones that I get a kick out of too, this trumps them all
October 31st, 2009 at 12:58 am
I have been reading this comic for quite some time as well as many of the others. And while I am indeed impatient for an update it is somewhat rude continually pester for the next one. Though I must admit I am curious about why, if the comics are done, they are not yet being posted. Could you possibly explain this to us so that people could understand?
And as this is the first time I have ever posted here I must also add that I not only enjoy this comic but I find it thoroughly refreshing to find one every-so-often that doesn’t have a need for gore, sex or angst.
November 1st, 2009 at 10:45 pm
Actually, if you look at Bobby’s comment, he said he WROTE the pages. There’s nothing saying they’ve been DRAWN. So we all get to sit and wait. Patiently. ._. I need a fix here!!
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:50 am
Seriously. I didn’t know waiting could be THIS much of a torture.
The next person who asks me what my name is will hear me say, “My name is Turtle.” =)
