As Alice said, I often give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it.

I meant to post this on its own and tag you but hey this is as good a time as any.

I took my kids to the library yesterday and this was sitting as a featured title in the youth comics section.

It’s rewarding watching kids who weren’t even born when the strip was running, discovering it now. Makes me feel like at least parts of it are timeless!

It has a sequel, too. :) called “Perfectly Normal.”

I curated both books to remove anything I thought a modern kid wouldn’t get. So, you know. George W. Bush jokes. ‘N Sync jokes. References to 2000s television.

I love Brussels sprouts. It’s also canon that Phoebe does!

Darn those ancient family dragon curses...

I could always recycle that idea, and say that, like, Todd’s family has a hair curse and it’s never come up because dragon.

He’s the most underpowered one. Kind of the one you turn to when everybody else’s life bar is kind of low.

But he’s not useless. In fact there are situations where the fact that his attack is the fastest matters. Don is slow and his weapon has reach but no sweep. That’s not always optimal!

I think so, but I would.

But a whole arc? Nope.

I guess it should happen!

The game is not as hard as he’s making it.

Listening to him insisting over and over that Donatello is the only useful one because he has the most strength and reach, and that’s not true at all, they all have their strengths and weaknesses.

It’s like watching someone mow their lawn with an edge trimmer while going “f*ck lawnmowers!”

Watching the Game Grumps play NES Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and as someone who beat that game repeatedly in my youth: Arin, you don’t know diddly.

A four-panel comic strip featuring Llewellyn (a dragon) and Ozy (a fox child wearing a top hat.)
Panel one:
Llewellyn: "Of course, spring's arrival is not without its little inconveniences. Take daylight saving time."
Panel two:
Llewellyn: "People think it was created for farmers, but of course that's wrong. It's a remnant of an old dragon conspiracy."
Panel three:
Llewellyn: "The plan was to deprive mammals of an hour of sleep, then use their dental floss while they were too tired to notice."
Panel four:
Ozy: "That seems kind of unambitious for you guys."
Llewellyn: "Well, we were out of floss."
