Yesterday’s comic was the 25th comic posted here at A Little Scary! And all of them posted on the days they were supposed to be posted. How cool is that? It’s a mini anniversary! Yay!
It’s also Friday the 13th today. That seems significant. I should have done a special Friday the 13th comic…. Ah well… missed opportunity I suppose.
This serves as an early Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s out there.
I think it’s a universal complaint that Dad’s are just hard to shop for. They generally have what they want and don’t want much else. So what better gift that one of those fabulous little USB powered vacuum cleaners? Right? Especially when your Dad is ten stories tall and can’t grip anything smaller than a bus full of screaming tourists. Hmmm… perhaps this isn’t the best gift.
Also, this is the first comic to feature Xilla.
If you thought the rising costs of college or university were too steep, can you imagine if you had to pay with souls? Well some people probably can. I’m guessing the creators of MySpace, World of Warcraft, Everquest and other online systems have been saving up for just this sort of thing. I’m kidding of course. Mostly.
I told you zombies had feelings but some of you didn’t believe me. Well here’s your proof. Now don’t you feel silly?
If you’ve never worked in retail then you may not get this one. For those lucky enough to not have retail sales experience, let me just tell you that some customers actually do expect you to know what they are thinking at all times and get angry when you don’t. I’ve had it happen to me quite a few times.
Of course in this case zombies are almost brain dead, so the insult is a little too hurtful for zombies. I bet you didn’t know that zombies had feelings. Well they do. You should see them doing a karaoke version of ‘Memories’. It’s very touching… when they can remember the words of course….
