Comic 5 and 6: A cheap idea

To help myself get back on track with daily comics, I decided to post a few old comics I've made. Sorry to those who have already seen them! It's sort of cheating I know, but it's not like yesterday or today were very eventful anyhow. So here you go!

In this comic I am with Anu on the bus, on the way to her place with Totoro so that he could spend some time with her cats to try and prevent it becoming an unfamiliar experience for him to be with other kitties. But, on the bus, there was a rather scary woman; snorting, burping and grunting while sitting opposite us, and happened to notice Totoro in his catbag. I wasn't sure what she said through her slurping, but I defenitely heard "kissha". She wouldn't stop staring at him with rather unsettlingly focused beady eyes. I thought she might want to take him home to make a roast of him O_O I've never seen someone burp, snort, slurp and heave their breath like that before, and smiling aimlessly all the while... Very unusual.

P.S. "Kissha" = "Kissa" which means cat in Finnish. Also, I am not anti-large-people. But this woman was excessively overweight, precisely what you would call "morbidly obese"!




In this comic, I was trying to portray a funny misunderstanding I had in an MSN chat with my friend Heike. I asked what she had been doing that day, and one of the things she said was "trolling in Fruit 'n Veg". Now, in my vocabulary, the term "trolling" in internet speak means "to go around making unnecessary mean comments to other people / other people's posts. But, in an online game called "World of Warcraft" commonly known as "WoW", the word trolling means "to hang around with no real mission or accomplishment". Heike is an avid WoW player, so when she said "trolling" she meant in the hanging around sense. I, on the other hand, thought she meant the other meaning, and I was trying to imagine why she would be trolling in a vegetable shop... This picture was the result :D I should point out that Heike hates tomatoes with a passion, and quite likes her spinach and cabbage greens. Hehe.

P.S. Heike is not a Nazi, it's just an arm band she has. And "ffs" is internet short-hand for "for fuck's sake" .




This picture is simply my overboard excited reaction to the possibility of me fostering an imported Silver Siberian female cat for Aino (she is the owner of the Talvivaaran cattery who I got Totoro from) sometime in the future! 8D




And last but not least, these are cartoons I made of me and Sonja as SUPAHIRO'S (Super heroes) for our Facebook profile pictures.
We are the SUPAHIRO MIDNIGHT BAKERS! because we have ended up baking in the middle of the night together a few times now, hehe. I am "Running Butter" and she is "Angry Eater!" :D
