2011-01-24: Hysteria (never existed)
Not In My Diagnostic Manual, Thank You Very Much
A cut line of dialogue: "The aggregate of observations previously classified as pathological symptoms are no longer evidential."
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.
This comic includes the contribution:
- Jane suggested: A cure for hysteria.
Text transcript
Dr Quickly: Oh, Rabish -- I have some good news for you. Dr Quickly: Your, uh, problem has been dropped from our diagnostic manual, soooooo... Dr Quickly: You're cured! Rabish: Yay! Dr Quickly: Just give this to an orderly, and they'll help you pack up and move out. [[ Rabish is delightedly staring at the release order, which rests on her straightjacketed torso. ]] Rabot: How do I know YOU didn't write this?
