I don't know what possessed me to spend the time drawing this up. Is it funny? I'm not sure. The idea of this actually happening slightly amuses me for some reason.
There are so many possibilities, variations on a theme for this one. You could have page one repeat for a hundred pages, then the last panel punch-line comes from the Bird: "Enough already ! I heard you the 1st time !" etc.
It would be fun to do a "Shaggy Dog" story, where you punish the reader for committing a chunk of their time to see the story all the way thru to the end. The ending needs to be a big slap in the face.
I had budgies galore when I was a kid, and into my early adulthood....I spent many an hour in front of the cage just like Mr. Gootz here. {Or is that the bird's name?}
I spend most of my time devising evil plots in my secret villian's lair, underground. I pride myself on my wonderous ability to commit advanced acts of devious and sinister trickery without guilt.

By the way, I didn't think I'd have to say it but it keeps happening.
No one is allowed to use my illustrations without my permission. I like the idea of ME being paid for my work instead of other people.
It IS funny ! It really really IS !

Happy New Year btw.....
We had a budgie too. We loved it. It was a sad day when we found him in the bottom of the cage.
ReplyDeleteI meant for the man to be Gootz but it works either way!
Happy New Year to you too!
I vote for "funny".
