'Cause, you know, that's what I do.

I was trying to write a punchline for a premise I thought up, but then I realized the idea for the punch was more fitting of a different premise I had thought up earlier, but then I couldn't get that to work either so I just wrote a whole new comic. Does every cartoonist do this?

There are no Train Whistles of Justice in my life, but there are Church Bells of Vengeance. They ring every 15 minutes on my campus throughout the whole day and everybody hates them. I decided that they would be less annoying if they had some kind of significance, and thus the inspiration for this comic was born.

I'm not sure how much I like the presentation on this one. I typically try to keep everything in complete, punctuated sentences and rely on the layout of text on the page more as a subtle indicator of sentence flow than as necessary to interpret the writing. The latter reminds me too much of terrible free-verse poetry. I never liked free-verse poetry.

I deliberated whether to make the last word "umption", which is how I pronounced it (I stole this joke from myself in an actual conversation), but opted to preserve the literal word construction.

It was going to be poinsettias, but they bloom in autumn. How people wrote comics before Wikipedia, I will never know.

This wasn't quite the original joke I had planned, but a quick internet search suggests that there are at least four people before me to come up with the term "macaramen".
