“YOU MANIACS!” I’ll scream. “YOU BLEW IT UP!”
people were like “You know what eBay needs? Blogs.”
how it’s done is up to you
I wasn’t actually about to buy "Breakin’" today
First of all yes, the date on this comic is wrong-o and it’s definitely not the only time I slip up on that.
For some reason I can actually remember that the movie I nearly bought was “The Sting”, with Paul Newman and Robert Redford. I had never seen it but heard good things, and this was some Amazing Ultimate Anniversary thing (as they all seem to be). And it was cheap and I had it in my hands but then I saw it was full-frame, and I thought “WHY WOULD YOU EVEN PUBLISH THE AMAZING ULTIMATE ANNIVERSARY THING IN FULL FRAME.” Who clamored for that, is what I’m wondering.

Nerd-Man… AWAY!
One thing I enjoy when writing is to put in repeating phrases and ideas. I don’t think anybody really notices them, mainly because they are often designed to fly under the radar unless you know they exist, like the arrow in the FedEx logo.
The first words of this comic – “I don’t draw them in the comic, but…” are a good example. The phrase stayed in my mind as a good way to start a comic, and so it will pop up now and again over the course of the next few years. There are other examples. They aren’t usually present so often that you’d notice, but they’re another way I entertain myself with my work. [April 25, 2011]
apologies in advance
real-world Tripeaks is simply not feasible
I only just realized how many comics start with “so”. Unintentional, I assure you!
who doesn’t love tragic death?
Ah, ‘edgy’ humour. It just…isn’t really my thing? Every time I go for it I look back later and cringe a little. It’s pretty plain to see from the rest of the site that it’s not what I’m going for anyway. That doesn’t stop me from trying now and again, but I’m actually a little proud to say that for the most part this site never crosses the PG line. (The comments section, on the other hand…) [May 21, 2011]
