Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 10


Hey, folks. It's been a while since the previous Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic. Hopefully this one will be my last Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic due to creative burnout, family issues, and a world whose turmoil continues to grow.

In December 2025, the Yona of the Dawn manga finally reached its conclusion. The final chapter ended with Yona becoming Queen of Kouka. How's that for a happy ending?

Judging by her medical expertise, resourcefulness, analytical mindset and calm under pressure, Maomao from The Apothecary Diaries would fit well in the Mobile Army Surgical Hospital unit from the TV series M*A*S*H.

I'm very sure the Super Horn from Mario Kart 8 was the product of Professor Elvin Gadd and Dr Crygor being obsessed with ending the infamous Spiny Shell's reign of terror.

Despite their leftist leanings, Mastodon and Bluesky are blocked in Mainland China. Looks like the Communist regime in China is terrified of progressivism...

If there was one major commercial failure that was made by Samsung that surpassed the Nuon, it has to be the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Before the Samsung Galaxy Note 7's infamous exploding batteries, the biggest failure made by Samsung was the Nuon, a DVD/game console platform that tried too hard to be both a DVD Player and a gaming console just like Sony's PlayStation 2, but ended up a commercial failure. The Samsung Galaxy Note 7, however, took commercial failure to a fiery new level. There were injuries and property damage due to the battery fires. Thankfully, no one died from this fiasco. There was, however, a huge recall due to the fires. As a result, battery safety was drastically improved.

China's aircraft carriers are struggling with combat readiness issues. Some analysts say that Mainland China will have no more aircraft carriers by the time they conquer Taiwan. This is not a good sign for the administration in Beijing because their ambitions for world domination will be shaken to its very foundations if they learn the truth about their aircraft carriers' lack of combat readiness...

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 9


Hey, folks. I'm back once again with yet another Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic.

Contrary to popular belief, David the Champion of Jehovah was not the underdog that Sunday School often portrays him as in the story of David Vs Goliath. You see, slingers such as David were a Bronze Age battlefield elite that were arguably deadlier than most archers of that period. Getting hit in the face's "Golden Triangle" by a stone ball moving at 100 miles per hour is as fatal today as it was back in the days of David and Goliath. In other words, Goliath was going up against the wrong enemy...

Let's face it. Even if Dan Hibiki is considered the most pathetic character in the history of Street Fighter, he would still win against Glass Joe, Bubsy and Awesome Possum, even if these three born losers joined forces against him.

The first day of January was not the correct day to start the New Year. In fact, the Anno Mundi Calendar states that the first day of Spring, a.k.a. the Spring Equinox, is the true start of the New Year. Yet, Julius Caesar thinks there is nothing wrong with starting the New Year in the dead of Winter. Looks like the Roman Empire is the 4th Beast of Daniel 7 because that 4th Beast has a "little horn" that has the intention to change times and law...

While the Swedish Strv 74 looks weak and outdated by Cold War standards, even this tank could win against the Panzer 68 despite the Panzer 68's superior stats because the Panzer 68 was very problematic according to the Swiss Ministry of Defence.

Speaking of problematic tanks, China's Type 69 Tank was problematic, but not as problematic as the Panzer 68. Both the Iranians and Iraqis identified serious problems with the Type 69 Tank during the Iran-Iraq War. Even the M47 Patton, which would have been considered obsolete by this point, could win against the Type 69. With all that said, Thailand did the right thing when they dumped their Type 69 Tanks overboard to turn them into artificial reefs.

If there was anyone in Puella Magi Madoka Magica who had to go through far worse suffering than even born losers such as Dan Hibiki, Glass Joe, Bubsy and Awesome Possum, it has to be Sayaka Miki. Her funeral at the beginning of Episode 11 of Puella Magi Madoka Magica is a fusion of tragedy and depression because she wanted to heal Kyosuke's hands, but this left her unappreciated and she became so depressed that she became the very same enemy she was supposed to fight against, and ended up dying as a result.

Fake Precious Metals


Amid the rising value of gold and silver, some people in China have been left disappointed by the existence of fake gold and fake silver, and these people acquired the fakes as far back as the 2010s. One of the best (and my top favourite) examples of fake precious metals would be bronze bars being coated with a layer of gold or silver to make them look like gold bars or silver bars.

The video below aims to expose the dark truth about the existence of counterfeit gold and silver:


Even if fake gold and silver ingots exist in many countries, these fakes are everywhere in China.

Ultimately, these counterfeiters will discard their fake gold and silver right before they get dragged away kicking and screaming to face judgment. While this doesn't really look like the imagery of the Ezekiel 7:19 prophecy about gold and silver being discarded into the streets, the idea of counterfeiters discarding their fake gold and silver in the face of justice coming to get rid of them invokes a terrifying similarity...

Weak Rebars


Imagine steel rebars that are so weak that even a 60-year-old man bending it will end up looking more like the Incredible Hulk...

Low quality products such as rebars made from poor quality steel have no place in today's construction industry. Unfortunately, that is not the case in China because of corruption. Such cases of complaints about low quality rebars will always be a huge problem until the corruption is purged from China's steel and construction industry.

Thinking of other things other than other ladies 2


Another comic about my OCs in a lawyer-friendly version of the "Thinking about other women" meme? Looks like this comic could become a new Internet meme.

Bad news, folks. The tariff wars will be nothing compared to the debt bombs America and China are sitting on right now. If these debt bombs explode, it will cause a downturn that's far worse than the Great Depression, and it will ultimately lead to World War 3...

For those wondering what a xenophyophore is, it is an undersea amoeba that can grow up to eight inches in diameter. It's possible Kirby is a pink xenophyophore because official Nintendo sources confirm that Kirby's diameter is eight inches.

Risotto was always a great alternative to pasta and pizza for Italian Restaurants. Nuff said.

Anime was possibly the real reason striped bikinis are so popular in Japan. Change my mind.

Contrary to popular belief, the final battle between good and evil that threatens to end the world as we know it will not take place at Armageddon, but rather, that epic final battle will take place near Jerusalem, or more accurately, near what remains of Jerusalem.

The L6/40 is an Italian World War 2 light tank that is known for being weak in that particular conflict. Therefore, it would be better off being demolished in the Street Fighter 2 car breaker bonus stage.

Anti-Tank Magical Girl


Continuing from that comic about characters who would win against a T-72 tank, I decided to expand on it by coming up with this comic about eight tanks Rit would win against if she were to confront them.

Remember when I said that the first boss of the Mysterious Pyramid levels of the arcade version of Rod Land was a tank? It turns out Rit and Tam won against that boss, which inspired me to come up with the comic about characters who would win against a T-72 tank, and this comic is a sequel focused on eight tanks Rit would win against if she were to confront them.

M47 Patton: This tank never got to fire a single shot in anger under the American Flag, but it saw a lot of action in various conflicts. However, its combat record was below average, with the biggest blemish being the Iran-Iraq War, where Iranian M47 Pattons got destroyed by Iraqi tanks of Russian origin.

Chieftain Tank: Britain's attempt to create a more powerful successor to the highly successful Centurion Tank was actually a disappointment that got rejected by Allied countries, including the Netherlands, Canada and Australia. There was a silver lining in that rejection, however, because Iranian Chieftains were getting massacred by Iraq in the Iran-Iraq War. Even Iraqi tank crews claim that their sabot rounds were going through Chieftain Tanks like a hot knife slicing through butter, and those claims turned out to be true.

Type 62 Tank: This Chinese light tank invaded Vietnam during the Sino-Vietnamese War, only to perform poorly in that conflict due to its weak armor.

Type 63 Tank: Another Chinese light tank that invaded Vietnam during the Sino-Vietnamese War. Like the Type 62, it performed poorly in that conflict as well. During the 1991 Gulf War, Iraqi Type 63 light tanks invaded the Saudi Arabian city of Ras Al Jafiji to little success. The reason behind the Type 63's poor performance in the Sino-Vietnamese War and the 1991 Gulf War? Blame its weak armor.

Type 69 Tank: When the Type 69 Tank first came out, it was initially rejected by the Chinese Ministry of Defence due to its poor performance, and all 100 Type 69 Tanks were sent back to the factory that built them. After improvements were made, the Type 69 tank got better. So much better that China manufactured Type 69 Tanks for Iran and Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War. Talk about playing both sides...

Panzer 68: The Panzer 68 had so many problems that it could well be considered the worst tank to have entered military service. The Swiss Ministry of Defence knew about the Panzer 68's problems and they rectified many of these problems with the upgrade to the 68/88 model.

TR-85: Romania's most successful attempt at an indigenous combat tank project was not without teething problems. The problems were so bad that the communist regime threatened to cease tank production. Even after the modernization program that came after the fall of communism, the TR-85 still looks like a relic of the Cold War. In fact, the Romanian Ministry of Defence is mulling over retiring the TR-85. But with no replacement, the TR-85 will have to remain in service with the Romanian Army despite its obsolescence.

Arjun MBT: India's attempt to create "Leopard 2 Tank at home" was a huge disaster. How bad was the Arjun MBT project, you say? The project was mired in so much corruption that the final product ended up having a worse performance than the T-90 Tank. And Krauss-Maffei's involvement in the Arjun MBT project wasn't helping either because the Arjun's MTU engines were not the type of engines you would expect to find in the Leopard 2, but rather, these MTU engines were similar to the ones found in the Leopard 1.

With all that said, if Rit is a magical girl that is capable of anti-tank warfare, then she is eligible to be on the "Top 10 Best Magical Girls" list.

Existing in the Same Century


Fun Fact: The last Sega console and the last dynasty of the Chinese monarchy both existed in the same century. In fact, the Qing Dynasty collapsed in 1912, while the Sega Dreamcast was released in Japan at the end of November 1998.

It's crazy to think about historical events that happened within the same century. For example, the 20th Century witnessed the commissioning of the 1906 version of HMS Dreadnought and the commissioning of the first Arleigh Burke-class destroyer within the same century. However, we must remember that within less than 100 years, we went from not being able to fly to the very last Sega console, the Dreamcast, launching in North America.

On a side note, Happy 25th Anniversary, Sega Dreamcast!

Freedom's End


It's sad to see democracy perish in darkness. Especially when democracy in 2020 is suffering the same tragic fate that brought China's Han Dynasty to an end 1800 years ago. Between belligerent governments that are forcing big tech companies to silence the truth, especially effective countermeasures against epidemics, and the free world currently being a divided house, democracy as a form of governance is officially going the way of the Han Dynasty.

Apparently, the Han Dynasty collapse happened due to corruption, natural disasters and epidemics. The same thing is happening to democracy in the present age, especially with the current pandemic. Eventually, ideologies that dislike democracy will rule various parts of the world, resulting in a rivalry between said ideologies that could possibly end the world as we know it.

Recession Resistant


Author's Note: This comic was made before China lifted its ban on video game consoles.

Don't get me wrong, mobile gaming is just part of the future. But only because of most of the factors mentioned in the comic. Also, most smartphone apps are available free of charge, although some of them will have micro-transactions, which can be very costly.
