I just assumed that the wife's glasses popped off as a defense mechanism to protect her sanity. As for the vows, why didn't I think of that? That would have come in handy so many times.
No, not even a stuffed animal. I'm genetically hybridizing snakes and apes. I have the MAD skillz. Emphasis definitely on the mad. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!!!!
Ha! I love when you write a comic that is both funny and a break through the fourth wall. I really enjoy it. I also wouldn't mind having Snake Ape fighting someone like Omnipresent Man.
If any man is ever foolish madly in love enough to marry me, I must also put "...and you'll accept me even though I'm weird" right in the vows. Because that is an excellent idea.
Being weird is a healthy part of every complete relationship. It's like the saying, "If you can't spot the sucker in 30 minutes, you're the sucker." But in this case it, "If you can't tell if your parter is flipping odd within an month, you better hope you're odd, or else you'll spend many nights playing charades with your cats."
Thanks for asking, but I already did a comic about writing your own vows. http://basicinstructions.net/basic-instructions/2009/4/1/how-to-write-your-own-vows.html
1.) I'm convinced you never heard of TrogDor, BadStrong or Homestar Runner or at least patently ignored it. 2.)Your wedding vows must have been off kilter but awesome 3.)You're not working for them , which is a pity, 'cos they could help you out of the jams you get yourself into at times. 4.).Did you combine two monster costumes on Paint, Photoshop, whatever and trace over that creationor did you actually free-style that costume? 5.) I'm wondering when kids start happening in this four panel delight?
I would of course give Scott all of my dollars, which would no doubt be millions, that I would get from such sales.
However, if Dane really is going to make real live Snake Apes, then my efforts would be in vain. I mean, who wants a toy when you can have the real thing?
Whenever I read Basic Instructions, I hear the music of Disturbed in my head. And whenever I listen to Disturbed, I inevitably think of Basic Instructions. Apparently somewhere deep down in my psyche I subconsciously identify Scott Meyer and David Draiman as the same person.
"I already did a comic about writing your own vows."
yes, but they weren't about your vows, and there was nothing about you being weird, per se. This topic deserves some attention. you opened the door, councilor.
My 10-year-old daughter and I were whiling away the hours road tripping home today and we started talking about big purses. We agreed that a purse big enough to hold Marmaduke (the cartoon 200-lb Great Dane) would indeed be an enormous tote. Then she went on to say that Enormous Tote Man would be an awesome super hero.

No, not genetically engineering a Snake Ape. The gestational period is too long. I'm just going to hop in my time machine and redirect evolution to make the world rife with Snake Apes! For my skillz are truly the maddest!

Your wife's glasses disappeared at panel #4...
(Thanks for the catch. It's been fixed! Scott)
Clearly those must have been the best vows ever written.
No, not a costume. I'm making a stuffed animal of Snake Ape. I have the skillz.
: ) Thanks for the laugh!

Please post "How to Write Your Own Wedding Vows." I really want to see what went into yours ...
Surely a Snake Ape should in fact be a Snape?
"How to write your own wedding vows", now THAT would be a good one too. Keep up the hilarity.
No, not even a stuffed animal. I'm genetically hybridizing snakes and apes. I have the MAD skillz. Emphasis definitely on the mad. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!!!!
The first panel is part of a conspiracy to prove that I'm paranoid.
Ha! I love when you write a comic that is both funny and a break through the fourth wall. I really enjoy it. I also wouldn't mind having Snake Ape fighting someone like Omnipresent Man.
I bought your app just so I could add "How to turn an enemy into a friend" to my favorites.
If any man is ever
foolishmadly in love enough to marry me, I must also put "...and you'll accept me even though I'm weird" right in the vows.Because that is an excellent idea.
i'd like to read those vows. they sound more entertaining than the ones my wife and i read.
Holly, if you make a stuffed animal, I want to buy one. Assuming you can get permission from Scott.
This is more like "How to defend your insanity"...
I love that he wrote this into his wedding vows!
Missy's glasses look like an afterthought in panel #4
Written into your vows - a perfect finish for a good comic. Can I go back and revise mine?
This is classic... perhaps leading to another strip in "How to create your wedding vows"?
"Do you, The Wife, take Scott to be your lawfully wedded husband, even though he's really weird?"
"I do...?"
In sickness and in - oh btw I'm a bit weird - health...
Being weird is a healthy part of every complete relationship. It's like the saying, "If you can't spot the sucker in 30 minutes, you're the sucker." But in this case it, "If you can't tell if your parter is flipping odd within an month, you better hope you're odd, or else you'll spend many nights playing charades with your cats."
Which is in no way weird.
Just boring and sad.
Personally, I find the best way to defend my sanity is with a fake looking two-handed over-the-head judo chop!

Is that Trogdor? Is he, dare I say, preparing to BURNINATE?
I can not believe I forgot about your vow one

Master-Blaster!
1.) I'm convinced you never heard of TrogDor, BadStrong or Homestar Runner or at least patently ignored it.
2.)Your wedding vows must have been off kilter but awesome
3.)You're not working for them , which is a pity, 'cos they could help you out of the jams you get yourself into at times.
4.).Did you combine two monster costumes on Paint, Photoshop, whatever and trace over that creationor did you actually free-style that costume?
5.) I'm wondering when kids start happening in this four panel delight?
Though simple, the first panel is one of the most hilarious things I ever read . I may add suspiciously hilarious (shadow covering eyes)... XD
Good one, Scott. Being weird keeps things interesting as we fly around the sun on this ball of dirt.
The Snake Ape living in my closet doesn't have any eyeholes.... or a zipper.
I would of course give Scott all of my dollars, which would no doubt be millions, that I would get from such sales.
However, if Dane really is going to make real live Snake Apes, then my efforts would be in vain. I mean, who wants a toy when you can have the real thing?
Just remember - Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean that you're wrong...
