it’s catchy, AND it makes you think

I’ve actually been asking different people this question for years and I’ve yet to get a satisfactory answer. I think the general consensus has been that she is “very skillful with a laser-based device”, which I guess makes a little more sense and lends a delightful sci-fi twist to the song.

As a side-note I have no idea why I decided to centre-justify the date at the bottom of this comic. Sometimes I try different things with the dates and usually they don’t hold. [May 21. 2011]

all I wanted to know was the version number

This comic marks the first appearance of tiny, circular eyes. I have an impolite name for that style of eye but suffice it to say that they are almost always reserved for jerks or idiots. Something about them suggests a certain…simple-mindedness. I’m not sure how I settled on that idea but I have been drawing stick-people for years before the comic started.

Since we’re talking about this comic, I’ll also add that the Wal-Mart sales guy looks like a character from the old cartoon “Stickin’ Around”. [April 25, 2011]
