I'm not very funny either. This is all I could come up with:

Aww, Winston looks pretty dejected in that last panel. I like the idea of using Dip's top feathers as emotion indicators!

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

It seems to me that Dip's top feathers could not be used in any other way!

The joke I was trying to get at is that Winston thinks Dip is a bird and Dip thinks Winston is a cat, but they do not necessarily realize this or the implications. I am not sure if maybe they do both know their own species though because I haven't read every single comic yet. I am perhaps overthinking the scenario.

I was trying for Winston looking disappointed and confused and maybe a bit worried about Dip's mental state.

Dip and Winston know that Winston is a cat, though I'm not positive that Dip knows he is a bird. There has been a comic or two with Dip hinting at confusion over what he wants to be.

Well then my comic still canonically makes sense! Since it only really relies on Dip not realizing he's a bird to work.

I mean, for very small quantities of "work" because any joke that needs explanation isn't a very good one.

Actually I kind of started out thinking that maybe Winston wasn't a cat and Dip wasn't a bird but they just sort of superficially looked like them and that maybe they were both deformed squirrels (and Dip is a flying squirrel).

Ok so I am real glad Pseudo just linked me to this because I would not have seen it otherwise and I think that might have qualified as a CRIME. The kind you get arrested for.

WHY DONT YOU MAKE COMICS MORE OFTEN

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

oh, it is a shame that you are not feeling funny :( I hope this does not mean you are also not feeling happy. I am making you a comic, but it may take some times. (also I cannot guarantee that it will be funny)

(Reply) (Thread)

I look forward to it! I am glad you are still around. I hope things are going well.

Maybe I'm not happy. I dunno, I'm just kind of coasting along right now. Being able to quit my job when fall semester starts is the bright light at the end of the tunnel for me right now!

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

Hate your job, huh? That's unusual... hahahaha
Don't worry, things will get better. I was sorry to hear about what happened with that chick, it is so awkward trying to keep in touch with people who don't seem to care anymore. It totally sucks, actually, I feel your pain.
Anyway, yeah, I haven't been around for like... ever, mostly 'cause of uni. Hopefully my marks will reflect my efforts, but I have a feeling they've slipped a bit towards the end of semester (i.e. now). Should be cool, though. I'm so glad it's nearly holidays, I have so many things I want to do, that I haven't had time to do. Also, my sister had a baby boy last week (exactly a week ago now, actually), so I will have lots of free time to adore him in!
Anyhoo, chin up. Hope everything works out for you :)
P.S. Since you've been so good entertaining me with your comics and great art while I've been to busy to do any, I shall have to entertain you in return, with my bad comics and mediocre art :D
