I thought it was clearly liquid when Cueball stuck his foot in it in frame 16

Of course you didn't see it correctly. All *ahem* Readers-of-the-Book know you can't quite see his face properly.
If we just call him "Randy Flagg" then we can go full circle back to beach bumping.

Nooo this thread cannot involve anyone chasing Randall Flagg. Or it will all definitely come full circle. "The Man in Black fled across the desert..."
<hipster> I was making Randall Flagg jokes way before it was cool... </hipster>

Or maybe not... They may be unpleasantly surprised... in a newpix or two.
Perhaps it's oobleck? That could get...weird.
That would be friggin' awesome. They start running out into the ocean, but can never stop moving or else...
Or else what? They go swimming like they wanted?
You've never tried swimming in oobleck, have you?
TO THE MYTHBUSTERS! Or umm.. it is not a good idea...

I'm going to point out why this is an invalid argument, even though it is clear as day that they are on a beach and that people who insist otherwise are just being needlessly argumentative.
It's not just wanting to swim, but someone else asking you. You are in an office, so if another person came and asked you if you want to go for a swim, as happened in the comic, would make no sense whatsoever.

But man, with this newest frame, I got legitimately excited at the prospect of seeing them go for a swim. I really hope Randall keeps this comic going for a while, I'm really enjoying it.

It has nothing to do with being arguementative and more to do with challenging assumptions. This is a thread full of them many of them shattered as quick as they appeared. We have limited information due to the medium and the presentation. It is true it is clear that they are near a body of liquid. Your analysis of dialog with context is correct, but not much else can really be assumed.
