I've cut grass like that. Seriously, Avery, it's not worth the money.

In other news, only five strips stand between us and the introduction of Llewelyn, for whoever it was that was waiting for that.

Darth Vader is Luke's father and an only child.
I drew this strip at a coffee shop in Gig Harbor, Washington, and some lady asked me if I was Gary Larson (who is also from there). I have no idea if she was serious, but I told her that, sadly, I was not.

I had so much fun when Snape killed Dumbledore.

I read the 5th Harry Potter book, watched Fight Club, and finished Bioshock; all years after they were first released, all without having it spoiled for me.

So, yay, or somesuch.

I knew that the Snape kills Dumbledore spoiler was out there, but didn't know the actual content of it, so I tried very hard to avoid it. Then on the day before the release of the book, I visited a forum I frequent, and it automatically started playing an audio recording of the spoiler.

Ha ha, I shouldn't laugh, but that's some good trick. No escaping it short of not going to the site.

I've seen videos on youtube of people driving by lines to buy the book, yelling "SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE!!!!!!" and patching out.

I don't really get the Snape kills Dumbledore thing. Its like "Take that people who really enjoy a book and otherwise do not affect my life" I think if your going to troll a group on that large of a scale they should be doing something to deserve it.

It's not just like "lol harry potter sucks let's ruin people's fun", the reason why people did it was because the book was illegally sold two weeks early. Once it gets sold early, there's naturally people who are going to want to know what big events happen, even if it's not to ruin it for other people. If it hadn't been leaked early, I doubt there would have been as much of a big deal about it.
