I mean, it was funny for one generation, it can be funny for another. =)

You can make the same joke if you can't remember making it.

i always imagined a week or two was sufficient

Steamed hams should be the one exception

This doesn’t really have anything to do with this post…(and looks like a plug, but it’s not!)

Many moons ago at Pax South, I gave you a manuscript and thanked you for helping me to use creating and art as a way through my PTSD.

I self-published as therapy. Thank you again.

I read today's comic and thought i had seen it before! I just assumed it was because i took an edible earlier.

Kind of related: I still remember when you titled a second strip "Wastoid," briefly breaking my bookmark to one of my favorite strips.

I think they're both really funny and well-drawn, but I like Wastoid 2014 the best.

Ernie Bushmiller did this quite a bit.

But even then it's only a reference, not actually a funny new joke.
