Please tell me I'm not the only one who noticed this

It's halloween. We should see something a lot more threatening than unibrow man and VHS's, which although truly frightening are not very threatening. So far the only scary thing about this chapter is the fact that there is still a video store that is still open. Although props for the set up of the store. It definitely has that infinite maze vibe you usually only see in creepy old libraries. Like the further you go the less likely you will ever escape. oooOOOH.NHWestoN wrote:Story's setting up nicely, I think … and, thanks, Champ for pointing out Peanut is wagging his tail.

Probably. My father always tells me how they could never afford a home projectorArgent wrote:I'm older than VHS. I remember when watching movies at home meant actual film. And I only knew one person who had a home projector that could handle full length movies.
They take the VHS home only to find out that it is, in fact.......Beta!!fenrirblack wrote: It's halloween.

If that happened it would be a really quick story. They get home look at it. Look at each other and go "ummmmmmmm..... what is it?"

Oh, please, when I first learned of the furry fandom, I thought to myself, "guess it's one of those things for the younger crowd."fenrirblack wrote:When you say things like "today's youth" you are officially old.D-Rock wrote:I'm 26, but the idea that a format that I grew up on is essentially lost to history for today's youth.

Used to try shadow puppets in elementary school whenever we got the rare chance to use the projector. The stopped using projectors in my schools by fifth grade, around 2002. It was fun.NHWestoN wrote:Heck, I remember lights projected on the only wall we had without patterned wallpaper, Dad doing shadow animals with both hands, and Mom doing Mel Bland impressions while ... oh ... okay ... I'll go quietly back to the couch ...
Since were sharing, I was 22 when I discovered the furry fandom. Partly because I didn’t have internet til I was 18 and in college. At that point I discovered the world of online anime.D-Rock wrote:Oh, please, when I first learned of the furry fandom, I thought to myself, "guess it's one of those things for the younger crowd."fenrirblack wrote:When you say things like "today's youth" you are officially old.D-Rock wrote:I'm 26, but the idea that a format that I grew up on is essentially lost to history for today's youth.

Not only was I incredibly wrong about that, I want to say that I was 19 at the time.![]()
I don't really hang out with people younger than me if they're not family. Online is a whole different matter.
That's my biggest fear about this comic. I'm afraid Rick is going to die or vanish and we'll never find out any of the mini-mysteries he's put in the comics over the years or simple things like King's actual age. Then there's Tom Fischbach who does the TwoKinds comics. I'm afraid he'll die before Flora has her baby. Twelve years she been pregnant. TWELVE. YEARS. The comic has been around for fifteen years. According to my math it'll take another six years. Thank god, Bailey had her pups in a realistic time frame.TeflonCougar wrote: Seen a lot of artists I liked fade away, leave in disgust, outright die and some just vanish.

I’m sure you mean well, but I’d just worry about not knowing what happened to someone whose work I got so invested in. I’ve never liked the idea that only comes up online of not knowing if they are still alive if they ever stop talking to you and others. Also, I think King’s age in his dog body is something Rick doesn’t intend to answer, how would you even organically even bring that up... also, man knowing Markiplier at least knows about furries if nothing else (its kinda up in the air if his brother is a furry or not) is not something I figured I’d find out in my lifetimefenrirblack wrote:That's my biggest fear about this comic.

If Rick does decide to end the comic he should have a Q & A page on the forum. You get one question so make it count.
Not sure I've ever heard of the term brick joke. It any different from a running gag, like the one with waking up always happening?GameCobra wrote:Just went to see Halloween in theaters and it suddenly dawned on me:
If by chance these two are going home to watch a horror movie, i'm under the impression Grape never seen a horror movie at home before with anyone and Peanut is going to be a good snuggle buddy for this. She may have heard of Halloween H20, but did she watch it? Guessing this movie might just be a whole out of left field horror movie. also.
Also, this leaves so much of a good brick joke. Peanut helps Grape get use to horror movies, then she helps Max, who helps Bino, who helps King...
