I took both of their eyes that are off of their faces', in the 1st panel, to be an invisible person between them, at first glance...

Second glance for me. First was just WTF, only understood the intention on third glance.

Misread it as "The poops are rising up", which made this very confusing...

Ancient GenX slang for "just kidding". Zoomers, don't let GenX make fun of you for "rizz" or whatever. They were doing shit like that long before you were born.

Yeah, to psych someone out was to mentally trick them. Was going to say Gen x made a TV show called Psych, but I never watched it so I'm not sure that the name corelates here

Sike is on dictionary.com so its really up to the individual if "sike" or "psych" is the correct spelling

sike a less common spelling variant of psych.

That's dictionary.Com politely saying that enough people misspell it that they'll felt compelled to put it here. If your definition points to the real spelling, it's not really "up to the individual" which is the correct one.

That's dictionary.com pointing out that it is now in common enoudh use to be a word. English isn't French, we don't have a language police that comes to chop off your head if you use a newer spelling, and I don't think we should either. Sike is correct now.

This comic would be better with only three panels. I love their work, but on this one the last panel seems to think the readers are imbecile and need the action explained.

"Now Chalmers did his head in you maroon" is a fairly humorous sentence on its own.

The joke isn't that he offed himself, the joke is no one gives a shit because they're empathy-free ghouls, they're just mad at Sike guy because it has inconvenienced them.

Seems it has quite a few meanings, I was only aware of the explosive one, thanks!
