Severed Ties-2008-08-05

Aug 12, 2008
I am leaving for Dublin today and won’t be back till the 24th. I tried to get an update up this weekend, but I was busy with other things. So here is a pic I drew to keep you amused. Have a good day — The End of Things will return shortly.

As I write this, there is some manner of tornado occurring where I live. The lightning is constant and the thunder is cracking, with winds as powerful and windy as the loudest politician. Everything should be okay, as I no longer fear death, But I do fear a painful death, so I’m heading towards the basement. I mean, if I died in my sleep, that’d be one thing. I don’t want to get hit by a flying printer or something.

    Why must you say such things!!! D:

    Don’t die!!!

    LIVE, damn you!!! LIVE!!!!

    Also, I thought we would see Evan’s sister soon enough…

  2. Fang Says:

    Indeed, had a similar issue in December with a freak hurricane way up here in Washington.

    I agree with your statement on death since I have a similar feeling. And yes, it would be pathetic to get killed by a printer. I half assedly dodged a stop sign, which I feel would have been equally as pathetic……..

    NOW LIVE DAMN YOU! WE DEMAND IT!

  3. Liam Says:

    Urgh. Least it’s more serious where you live. Down here they’re freaking out about the Hurrricane, but at the most, we’re just going to get some heavy rain. :/

  4. admin Says:

    I dunno, even though tornadoes are more powerful, they’re much smaller and don’t last for nearly as long. Hurricane’s are pretty frightening and I’d never want to be in one. I was caught in a nasty tropical storm once when I was in Thailand ages ago.

  5. Noa_E Says:

    Ya, those were some nasty weather. Though you’re right, they were pretty small. Wow, you were in a tropical storm in Thailand. What happend?

  6. Vinnie D. Says:

    At this point I don’t even fear tornadoes anymore. They come too frequently to bring life to a screeching halt every time a watch goes out. I just look to the sky and say “Bring it.”

    On the comic. I wonder. If Evan’s sister can feel his bones, his mom probably could too. She probably is worried but didn’t say anything.

  7. Lycanthromancer Says:

    Feeling your brother’s bones through his shirt and jacket means that he’s REALLY, very seriously underweight.

    Maybe Evan should start bodybuilding? Hire a personal trainer/nutrition consultant? I’d like to see Evan with a muscular, buff bod, and a sense of self-worth and fulfillment. That’d sure help with his body image problems. I hope, anyway.

  8. Shadowe Says:

    Flying printer death? Hmmm that’s creative indeed! Glad to hear you are ok. You and FB2k should build a shelter stocked with stuff to survive the zombie hordes and natural disasters!!

  9. Fang Says:

    Bah, tornadoes are made for cleaning up zombies. besides, he prolly created zombies >:p

  10. Veteran Says:

    Bah, printer schminter, a guy in our area died after breathing in a pencil.

    Still have no idea how he mamaged it.

  11. Veteran Says:

    Just thought i’d comment again, not done that in a while.

    Oh yeah: can anyone identify this quote?

    “you think i’ve been sat scratching my balls with my head up my ass?”

    “i’d have been impressed if you had been”

    you people have until next update (which i’ll probably miss by a fucking week, as per the usual)

  12. Veteran Says:

    last but not least

    Evan’s ears are getting bigger…

  13. Lycanthromancer Says:

    I wonder when Evan’s hair, fur, and teeth are going to start falling out? And when he’ll go blind.

    Malnutrition is a terrible thing.

  14. Spike Truent Says:

    Fuck tornado’s.

  15. Spike Truent Says:

    @ Vinnie D.

    You should move.

  16. Wolf Says:

    If you die, I will bring you back to life so you can keep making these awesome comics forever. So feel free to get hit by flying printers, computers, cows, barns, whatever.

    I agree with Lycanthromancer.

  17. admin Says:

    Heh, sweet.

    I will one day move to where it never snows because I hate snow. But there will be some other sort of disaster native to the area I move to no matter where I go, like floods, mudslides and hurricanes or whatever. Here, it’s tornadoes and blizzards.

    Heh, malnutrition.

  18. Valk Says:

    Good luck in Dublin; this picture will serve as an invaluable reference for the inevitable Evan x Ryan fan-art.

  19. Spike Truent Says:

    I’ll be sure to kiss my screen to this picture <3

  20. Veteran Says:

    Now now spike, don’t make me file a restraining order on his behalf.

  21. chairman fluffles Says:

    have fun and rock that island!!

  22. Spike Truent Says:

    Hehe Awww Veteran. You know me too well <3

  23. Lycanthromancer Says:

    Bony Evan is bony.

  24. Adder Says:

    Aw, man. I live in Dublin (assuming you mean Dublin, Ireland).

    Although, since I only read your comic and don’t actually know you, it’d be kinda weird to organise a meeting.

  25. Valk Says:

    Bone-inducing Evan is bony.

  26. admin Says:

    Ha ha, I do indeed mean Dublin, Ireland. I was actually at The Gaiety the other day and had Dark Whopper. It was a hell of a thing. Burger King tastes exactly the same as it does back home. Except the pop is better since the rest of the world actually uses sugar and not high fructose corn syrup.

    I’m actually about to leave Dublin right now and am heading Galway at the moment. Heh, I guess it would be kind of weird meeting up since I’m with my family while I’m here. Though if you saw an Asian guy with an Midwestern American Accent and a blue raincoat, that was me. Though there are actually a lot of Asian people in Dublin so that doesn’t really narrow it down all that much.

    I have a good story about this aul wan at The Porterhouse that was talking to me about the Olympics since she assumed I was from Bejing. But that’s a story for another time.

  27. Spike Truent Says:

    Ohh Wow….

    We totally got whooped in Ping pong D:

    Anyhow :3 I wish to hear that story.

  28. Lycanthromancer Says:

    “Bone-inducing Evan is bony.”

    You know it. We’ve got him gay (great for me!); now we just have to get him *real*. That’s the real feat, right there.

    Mr. Nititham, is there anything you can do about that? You ARE his creator, after all.

    “I do believe in fairies. I do! I do!”

    …Okay, I’ll shut up now.

  29. Spike Truent Says:

    I love you lycanthromancer

  30. chairman fluffles Says:

    hmmm, makes me think of a cross between Mannequin 2, Weird Science, and Cool World. Either incredibly brilliant or the worst 80s movie ever

  31. Lycanthromancer Says:

    See what we get up to when we have too much time on our hands?

    Also, http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=612

    Here’s a distraction to tide y’all over. It’s hilarious whether you’re a gamer or not.

  32. Spike Truent Says:

    Oh geezz

  33. Lycanthromancer Says:

    Also, that’s either the largest silverfish I’ve ever seen, or it’s a teeny-tiny fly-swatter. Seriously; that thing’s the size of a softball (biggest one I’ve ever seen is about the size of a dime).

  34. admin Says:

    Oh yeah, I drew that way too large. Oh well.

  35. admin Says:

    Oh yeah, I’m home now. Expect an update next week.

  36. hungrywolf Says:

    Welcome home!!!! YAY!!!

    Oh wait, you must be tired… *whispers* welcome home! yay!

  37. Spike Truent Says:

    OH GEEZ GIANT SILVERFISH D: He’s gonna live in my sofa and It’ll be grooooosss

    Welcome home! :3

  38. Lycanthromancer Says:

    Evan could be rich if he decided to breed those gigantic mutant silverfish and sell them as pets/bait/prank-fuel.

    Rich, I say!

  39. chairman fluffles Says:

    the world’s books would become unbound and the world would be forced to rely on wikipedia for misinformation. He could rule the world! excellent…yes, excellent.
