Death (Part 2)

20050406

Come on, now. You didn’t really think I would have killed off Orange… before the 500th…? It’s fair game on everyone. Place your bets, the moment is coming,

Monday’s comic was more or less based on a dream I had a couple of weeks ago, where I dreamt I was sitting on a park bench on a hot summer day with two popsicle halves, one in each hand. I was saving one for my girlfriend. I started to eat mine because it was really hot and, well, it was starting to melt. So was the other one. But I was determined not to eat it, because I was saving it for my girlfriend. I waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, but she never came. I was left there holding a bare popsicle stick, my hand covered with sticky red stuff. When I woke up, I was unbelievably sad.

Oh, and, of course, you have all been reading Tasteful Future… right?

    Jump the Shark:
    phr.
    A last ditch gimick employed by writers and producers to try to regain intrest and revive ratings in their floundering television show/web comic.

    Only Orange could get mauled by a tiny herbivorous creature.

    Was the fruitbat out of left field, or is it a reference to an earlier comic.

    My sympathies to your “someone else,” Jan. Those situations are never easy.

    This makes all the difference. I live in Nova Scotia, and, that makes this awesome.
