TEXT OF COMIC:

My new system of measuring distance can be used to state a length, width or height in much the same way we state a day of the year.

For example, I'm forty inches tall. The first four feet in my system are called Arlmun, Marmague, Skrunge and Uffle. Arlmun and Skrunge each have twelve inches, Uffle has eleven inches, and Marmague, at least in this situation, has nine inches.

So, doing a little math, I can tell you that my height is "the seventh of Uffle."

I think you have too much time on your hands.

Well, I think the circumference of your brain doesn't even get up to Marmague.
