So Keith told me about this contest they’re having for Cyanide and Happiness, where you basically have to take an existing comic and replace the text with your own. I don’t have the most “accessible” sense of humor, so I doubt I could actually win, but it’s fun to compete for a week of free advertising, with my banner up on their site. 12.5 million views? That could mean as many as 25 people who would actually laugh at my comic! Sweet. Anyway, here’s my submission. I tweaked it for a little bit because I felt like it hadn’t quite achieved what I wanted it to at first. In the end, giving it the father-son dynamic was what did it for me. It may not do it for you. And that’s fine. I encourage you to submit your own.
you’re so silly, joebot.
Comment by Aryn 02.17.07 @ 12:05 amum…first off turtles have a very low melting point so really it is not that hard to melt a turtle…second we all know that nightmarish balloon animals are the proper punishment for dismantling a time machine.
Comment by Dr.blowharding 02.19.07 @ 12:37 pmDefinitely the best one I’ve seen in the contest yet. The forum the contest on is sure a pain. One comic per seven posts of arguing. And of those comics, few are of the non-crap variety.
Comment by Patrick 02.19.07 @ 12:44 pmI’ve read several of the original happiness and cyanide comics now, and they actually seem to be a tad bit on the “LOL your infant daughter is sexually appealing”-side themselves. I’ll be curious to see what the winning entry looks like. You have my blessing to remove this comment when you win. Don’t want to piss in the well you drink from.

Comment by Dr. Blowharding 02.20.07 @ 6:51 pmWell said, doctor. Also, having experienced your nightmarish balloon animals firsthand, I speak from experience when I say that a two-headed giraffe and a bunny with one ear slightly bigger than the other are hardly suitable retribution against one who has wronged me so completely as to have dismantled my time machine. But then, I can be pretty spiteful.
