I find occasional good physical gags are delightful, but only sparingly. The three stooges are brilliant, but were always a bit much for me.
One of the great things about writing comedy, is finding ways to use old worn out jokes that remain inexplicably funny and re-purposing them to present them in a fresh manner.
Oh, and the bubble help me still makes me giggle.
Kids not only enjoy a good wordplay, but they live and die by the sword of wordplay. Dibs. Called it. Nothing Can Stop Me. These are rules of law.

Poor Blake. It’s not an unreasonable reply… unless you actually think about it.

I always enjoyed mixing strange little facts with utter ridiculousness. I am not the best person to learn from.

I used to bowl on a ten-pin bowling league as a child. That has nothing to do why this strips till cracks me the heck up.
Ever since I began swimming as a kid, I’ve always loved how clear everything is underwater, and how surreal it is to see the bottom half of people underwater and the top half obscured by the water’s surface.
I’d say this strip was half inspired by the joke, and half inspired by me wanting simply to draw it.
I think my favorite part of this strip is Vachel’s slow sink into the vase. He doesn’t climb in, or jump in, he just kinda sits in it and sinks down.
I don’t know why that has always amused me so much.
I think what Ted is missing is that with a fish you don’t have to keep buying cartons of milk and crayons.
See how small Blake’s nose is! And his snout! So long!
