After much pondering, I thought I would take us back to one of the first interactive online comic experiences - Penny Arcade's The Bench. The rules for this contest are simple - make a bench strip, using characters in the pennyarcade.

Official rules:

1 - Except in the case stated in rules 2 and 3, only characters and props found in the category "pennyarcade" can be used. This includes the empty bench , the big Gabe, and the squirrel on the ground, along with the seated characters.

2 - You may also have blank spaces (no character) and use the two invisible height props from the "props" category.

3 - Optionally, you may use one other character or prop from any category once. This is not a requirement.

4 - The following dialogue, or something very similar, must be used at least once: "Aroused, very aroused."

5 - This contest will be judged in seventy-two hours from the time stamped on this posting.

Gentlemen, start your engines.
