Title: We Return Thursday - 10 August 2005
Post by: jough on August 10, 2005, 02:56:23 pm: I don't know - this one seemed a little too much like yesterday's comic to really be new or fresh.

Maybe it'll play better when it's in the book. You really can't appreciate these things until you've paid money for them.

A: Ba-dum ching!

Better this than a strip where a Filas cross-trainer is left on Pat's doorstep.

This is why I have stopped commenting on the comics, by and large. Besides, I have more important thinsg to do than rag on a guy who can't think of something that amuses everyone, every day.
Ah, to work from home again!

For the same reason, I suspect, as Slink, I generally don't comment on comics either.

I loves my free entertainment.

Post by: Suckin_Dick on August 11, 2005, 05:47:39 am: hey, y'know i'm upset by the lack of updates but i gotta be impressed that the guy has been doing a daily comic for nearly 4 years even after having a brand new kid. i live at home and don't even have a job anymore, i still couldn't keep drawing my comic for more than a few weeks before i just gave up. so, i can forgive him a lack of creative output lately. in short, give the fella a break occasionally.

Post by: side_show on August 11, 2005, 07:32:36 am: As someone who has been working creatively, and unmotivated by anything other than my own self motivation to do such work, for nearly two months now, I can tell you that there are days were I read two sentences of what I wrote the day before, and then I change the punctuation, then have a change of heart, then change it back. Then I spend my day researching something I might possibly write about only to determin after hours of research that whatever I have been looking into is irrelivant. This has actually been a fair analysis of my work on occasion. No joke. Not every day, but some days.

The next time my SO asks how the writting went today, I think I'll simply say, "edit, Undo Typing."

So basically, all I can say, even when it's a stupid large shoe strip, from yesterday, without even an update note, is that he's one up on me most days of the week.

I did however, look at the "Get a signed copy of this strip!" link at the bottom of the strip yesterday and snigger. I mean, it has an exclaimation mark behind it and everything. It's silly. I mean come on. Who would be more embarassed in this transaction, Onstad, or the person ordering it?
