2006-12-29: Lying Down (hammock / dandruff)
Oh the pants
Two today to make up for monday's slackitude.
So keep scrolling down!
Drawing them on index cards is kind of fun but they're so UGLY when I do that.
This comic is in the storyline:
- Variations
A long-running series, maybe the crux of the site. Reader submits a suggestion, and I draw three comics based on that suggestion. Originally all three had to start the same, but it evolved.

{{title text: Lying Down (hammock)}}
Rabid: I'm so tired... I'll just lie down here for a minute...
Rabid: ZZZZZ
Rabid: Oh! A beautiful tropical island paradise! I must be DREAMING!
Rabid: Well, whatever. I think I'll "catch some zees" in my radical hammock.
Rabid: ZZZ -- OH!! This dream is much worse! I need to wake up!!
Dr Quickly: The hypothermia is taken care of, but he's herniating his coffee gland trying to wake up...
Rabid: NGH!

Rabid: I'm so tired... I'll just lie down here for a minute...
<<BOING>>
Rabid: WHAT?! The ground is springy and shoots me back upright!
Dr Quickly: Your hunch was right -- this isn't snow at all!! The "flakes" consist of microscopic helical compression springs!
<<ITCH ITCH>>
Rabid: TRY AN ANTI-DANDRUFF SHAMPOO!!
Rabot: This is more embarrasing than explaining my obscene power requirements! I wish I hadn't been built so huge!! Oh how I wish!
Rabot: What part of "SMALLER" sounds like "A REAL BOY", huh?!
