For those of you that can draw and like a chuckle...

PART ONE: Basic Laws of Comic Drawing

* Crooked lines are funnier than straight lines.
* Dotted lines are funnier than solid lines.
* Light colors are funnier than dark colors.
* Flat is funnier than perspective.
* Ugly is funnier than cute.
* Top-heavy objects are funnier than bottom-heavy ones.
* Really big is funnier than really small.
* Small kitchen appliances are funnier than furniture. Always include either a blender or, better yet, a toaster in every kitchen setting.

I'm happy they archived this e-mag. Check out the old "Filler" comics if you have a bunch of free time and are feeling a little bit of angst.

Yeah, I was just saying to myself the other day, "You know what would make Violet Days really funny? Toasters. There aren't enough damn toasters."
