LEEEEEE! - Nov 8, 2009

Todd bursts forth from a puddle of his own urine. Next strip, Cornelius's book makes millions. I liked this arc; even if this ends up being the last strip I think it ends a lot cleaner than the whole Lash of Thanatos thing.

Before this whole thing started in September, it was supposed to be a week of one-shots.

Original thread title: Today, I eat... ENOUGH chocolate.

'Yeun-ja, who grows more bald with each child' was also considered.

Sort of a Flowers for Algernon ending.

The briefly realized "Lee" slowly recedes back into the identity that is "Narration".

This little arc would'a probably not lost so much steam had it not been released at such an achingly slow pace but...

The ending's a nice touch. Daisy Daisy gimmie your answer do and all that.

Stolen From Assetbar:

wtf » neu 1 hour ago
Three plus signs issued in rapid succession on just about any analog modem causes the modem to drop into command mode, where instead of passing on the information received from the local computer on to the remote modem, it instead interprets this information as commands. If the local computer subsequently issued the command "ATH" to the local modem, this would cause it to hang up, thereby disconnecting it from the remote modem. "EOF" would not to my knowledge be part of any modem command set, but this is a Mystical Realism Modem, so who knows. "EOF" means "End of File" and in the present Mystical context seems to signify finality.

Dang, I was not really into this arc, but what a good ending. It was actually sad.

Did you notice that a newb started this thread and perfectly followed the board protocol?  Well I would put the title after the date, but why quibble, these things aren't set in stone.

I gave a can.  Welcome to the board Chumpy!
