That’s Better
Chapter: Season Four
Sam is all pretty’d up and on his way to Amy while the group prepares to settle down for a night of games. I kind of dig cleaned up Sam. I need to draw him like this more often.
My apologies for the lack of comic on Monday but to be honest, I just had a great weekend and I decided to take Monday off to work ahead a bit. No distress or bad reasons, just good things (which feels pretty great, I have to say).
The fact that Brett IS Santa makes that joke even better.
HAHA Thought the same thing. Well played sir.
yea i was thinking the same thing
I’d be gone as well… Hahahaha!
Is that a d6 cufflink?
Wow the comic has only been up a half hour n im already beaten to the punch to point out that Since Brett is Santa makes that line soo great! Oh well. It does. And Sam’s looking much more swave or “oh girl”
I’ve never understood the point of ties, at what point in history did someone decide that a strip of fabric around the neck magically makes you look smarter or more professional? And it’s frowned upon if you wipe your hands or blow your nose on them, so they’re not even practical. There’s a conspiracy somewhere I tells ya… 😉
I dunno why, but I’ve always liked ties. My usual outfit for work is jeans, a nice white or black shirt with the sleeves up to my elbows, a fancy silk tie and an even fancier waistcoat. The jeans are just to make sure I don’t look too dressed up, since for a while there I was out dressing management… they didn’t take kindly to that.
Ties derived from Europians men and women that would wear scarves around their neck. Also, they would put perfumes and scented oils on the scarves to hide the fact that they hadn’t bathed in a while. So not just fashionable but they had a practical use as well. 😉
The tie is a mechanism for advanced warriors only. Not only does it provide a crucial extra inch of knotted fabric between a throat and any potential garrottes, it can also be used as one itself, or as a measure to incapacitate prisoners by tying it around wrists or ankles. That and they look cool, but feel terrible.
As a man wearing a tie this second I can say with authority, ties are punk bitched.
Ties make you look good, like you mean business in every sense of the word, and if you LOOK good, you FEEL good.
I’ve been told that a woman with a proper ascot is irresistible. I’m tempted to find out. 😀
I dunno…if I’m not in uniform, I’m usually a shirt and sweats kinda guy. I cant stand ties, they don’t make me feel fancy, just more like…”wow, why the hell am I wearing this…it serves no purpose”
then again. Asperger’s.
What you don’t seem to under Brian, is that as soon as you started posting a webcomic, you became our property and are thus not entitled to a break. Ever. Dance for us Brian! DANCE AND PUBLISH COMICS! MWHAHAHAHAHAH… *cough* Sorry, where was I…
Oh yes. What I actually intended to say was that I’m glad to hear things are going so well at the moment. It’s always nice to take a break and enjoy life while it’s good. I don’t think any of us can begrudge you that. And if anyone does, point me at ’em and I’ll slap ’em upside the head.
Also. Hot damn, I’m starting to fall for Sharp Sam. 9 times out of 10 I prefer the ladies, Sam is looking like he’d fall into the 10% if he was real.
Man, I’m glad someone else said it, because every time I bring up the “webcartoonists are public domain” argument everyone looks at me like I’m insane.
Is that a 12-sider cufflink?
They’re d20s!
I cannot help but imagine that Amy will be showing up in her very best Catwoman t-shirt, complete with a cowl/hoodie.
Oh SAM. *fans self* I do declare.
A friend wore d20 cufflinks at his wedding last week. I was tremendously envious.
Man, that first line was meant to say understand. Good lord my typing has been shocking today. So many potentially career ending typos in various documents I had to send to the higher ups… thankfully I make a point of always getting someone to look important stuff over before it’s sent.
PROTIP: If sending an important report to the CIO, CTO, Global ICT Support Manager and your own manager, you really do NOT want to accidently replace the G in “regards” with a T.
I would say accidents are inevitable, but then they’d just counter with “what about spell check?” So I’m just going to say good call there with a second set of eyes.
Hah, the problem is that spell check won’t catch that particular error… “retards” is technically as correct a word as “regards”, its just nowhere near appropriate to send as the final word in an email to management…
The trick of lettering, of course, is that it’s written entirely differently from typing/handwriting things. It’s like drawing itself and, at least for a dyslexic like me who normally writes just fine, it’s sometimes hard to make the words turn out right, then to notice them.
The process is so very different that I get why people letter comics end up with that.
I love the idea of Brett Playing the Santa card. This needs to be a thing that happens more often at least until another seasonal route comes around to humble him. (Hoping this year he actually gets stripped of his powers & in his darkest moment has to use actual holiday cheer to kick start his powers again :3)
Lookin’ FINE, Sam!
Come now, Brett, don’t abuse your mantle…
D20 cufflinks…yes….YYYYEEEESSSSS!!!!!
By the way, was Sam about to break into a certain West Side Story song before Brett interrupted?
I must have those cufflinks!
“Every girl’s crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man!”
DAMMMMNNNNN Fine!
@FELTit
I need an “Oh Girl” kit.
Never underestimate the draw of dressing up. I once knew a gamer lady that was all paint covered shirts and raggedy jean shorts, but if she got a chance to “vamp it up” as she called it, she’d blow your mind.
Haha, this was supposed to be a reply to Tripp.
You know, Brett really crosses that line between “friend who can be abrasive and annoying” and “why the hell to we hang out with this guy?”
Don’t we all…?
