How Not To Cartoon

1. Don’t make a joke that has to be explained.

This is lichen

Lichen: simple slow-growing plant that typically forms a low crustlike, leaflike, or branching growth on rocks, walls, and trees.

2. Don’t do inside jokes.

My daughter and I were listening to an audio book, that went on and on with mind numbing details. At one point it said, “The lichen was pallid.” I said, “Oh no…the lichen is pallid!” She laughed and we used it as a run on joke for a week. “Dad… look out for the pallid lichen and so on.

3. Don’t post it to a blog.

Wow I made an animated gif!

I put a subliminal message in it that makes the viewer woefully unimpressed.

I looked out my window and saw a UFO!

  I was going to use my new HD ultra resolution camera, but quickly remembered UFO pictures are done with cheap and blurry cameras.  So having just studied the impressionist movement made an ink drawing as it happened.

Been painting miniatures

Lots of Battletech mechs , 

War Hammer budget bin miniatures

 and Rapier Space Mice.

In Battletech there are small Protomechs 

 I plan to use the Space Mice as a joke.

Put Stanly and Betty in a game and people just say,"No."

Limerick

Octavius Monk was a very smart punk

And he had his ideas in clusters

Though his thoughts would amaze

And worthy of praise

Most people he would just fluster

Moo-Ninja

It's been ten years since that night

 and I still can’t drink milk.

The Finagler Angler

A Herbivore Just Herbivoren

Lewis Carroll

From Some Of His Poems

"The Good and Great must ever shun

That reckless and abandoned one

Who stoop to perpetrate a pun.

...

Sound argument and grave defence,

Strange questions raised on "Why?" and "Whence?"

And wildly tangled evidence.

...

Her idea of passive beauty

Was a squinting of the left-eye,

Was a drooping of the right-eye,

Was a smile that went up sideways

To the corner of the nostrils.

...

(On writing poetry)

"for instance, if I wished, Sir,

Of mutton-pie to tell,

Should I say 'dreams of fleecy flocks

Pent in a wheaten cell'?"

...

There is an insect that people avoid

(Whence is derived the verb 'to flee')

Where have you been by it most annoyed?

In lodgings by the Sea.
