Zirealism

yer Sunday comix







I'm putting this up on December 4th!  Proactive for once!  Also thanks posty for being so early.
Otherwise... [2003-12-21 01:32:00] Herman Kneutick
Otherwise, it would be a present. Sometimes, you get out of it what you put into it.
Zirealism [2003-12-21 09:40:00] Antwan
Makes no sense. Badly drawn. Antwan hates. Rar.
OK [2003-12-21 10:00:00] bOOfer
ok that one was pretty bad
The Box [2003-12-21 12:42:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
Maybe it's a magic box.
Next Frames [2003-12-21 13:56:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
In the next frame, the guy with the box could say to the other guy, "Hey, your shoe's untied!" Then, in the last frame where the other guy looks at his untied shoe, the guy with the box could punch the other one in the nose! It's an old trick, but it might work.
The hater [2003-12-21 13:58:00] Morticia~
doesn't know how to tie his own shoes.
He deserves an empty box.
Maybe PH could re-draw it with the box over his head and tied tight about the kneck with a large razorwire bow.
In the spirit of the season and all, you know?
Posthumous [2003-12-21 17:00:00] Antwan
It's like Posthumous sat down to draw this comic and just said "I give up!"
Empty! [2003-12-21 17:35:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
You don't love him, that's why the box is empty.
Wait [2003-12-21 18:34:00] Zim
BUT the second guy (the one NOT giving the box) says that it is empty because he doesn't love him, BUT HE'S NOT GIVING THE OTHER GUY ANYTHING! ONE box, TWO guys, ONE Lie..can YOU figure it out, Finally TV's finest realty TV show, Who will be the Lieing son of bitch, and who will be the kind loving one, Find out tonight on FoXed.
Wheel Barrows [2003-12-21 18:42:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
Maybe it's like the story about the guy who takes a wheelbarrow out of the factory every night. The guard looks through it, but doesn't find anything. Finally, he asks the guy, he says, "OK, I give up! I know you're stealing something! What is it?" So, the guy says, "Wheelbarrows!" The box is it. There isn't anything else. The box is the gift.
[2003-12-21 19:23:00] Eve
The guy on the right looks like a clone of the guy on the left(albeit with a few minor differences.)
Maybe it's really one man who sees himself as two people, and is full of self hatred.
"I bought you a box for you because I love you"... he feels the box is him, whether its his creativity, indentity, etc... when his other self hating side says "and the box is empty because I don't love you"... it means he also feels, as the box is empty, that his creativity or his identity is all gone, because he hates himself.
Its a yinyan thing. One side you have him as happy, and with a present for himself, but on the other side the present is useless as it contains nothing, so he is a self hater. He is either a self hater because of the empty box, or the empty box is a result of his self
hatred oh no i've gone crosseyed.
no, I'm sorry, you've failed again [2003-12-21 19:35:00] Zim
See the guy on the right is bald, tall and has a big nose. The guy on the right is short, with only one line of hair, and some kind of stick growing out of his foot. but who knows, we'll just have to watch the reality tv show to find out.
UGH [2003-12-21 19:36:00] Zim
Guy on the left is bald, tall and has a big nose. I have failed you great antwan!
You failed twice, grasshoppah [2003-12-21 21:54:00] Morticia~
That 'stick' is an untied shoelace.
Now, PAY ATTENTION!
Bad Zim BAD!
oh crap [2003-12-22 05:52:00] Zim
I did, I failed twice. Oh well, let's go get the monkey......MOOONNKKEEEYY
Headline du Jour [2003-12-22 07:01:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
Fishermen Dress Lobster As Barbie
a different angle [2003-12-22 10:39:00] minna
perhaps it's a metaphor for zirealism.
it's created because posthumous loves us (he wants to give us somthing to think about)
it's crap because he hates us (which is self explanitory)
posthumous is a what?????? [2003-12-22 12:45:00] bOOfer
why r they both guys wait a second is the one of the guys really u posthumous??????? an if it is u deep down inside u better learn to tie ur shews
It's a wonder [2003-12-22 14:16:00] Morticia~
..that they don't both topple over, what with only one arm and one leg on one side for each. I guess then, there is no real danger in having the shoelace untied, because the guy just hops like a pogo stick.
I can see them now...



Two receding figures, arms around each other's shoulders and walking like the Monkees on the old TV show, singing in a loud falsetto:

Here we come..
Walking down the streeeet!
Get the funniest looks from
Everyone we meeeet!

Although I have my doubts that they would be staring because of the walk, per se.
I would suspect that it would be the vision of one of them, sans hands, with an empty box hanging off his penis.
Box [2003-12-22 14:32:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
A box is an excellent gift! You can keep your stuff in a box. Maybe they're Canadians, and it's Boxing Day.
Keep your STUFF in a box indeed, HB [2003-12-22 14:51:00] Morticia~
And what was that Boxing Day comment, you anti-Canuckian you.
We happen to have Boxing Day on Dec. 26th just like Amerkins, didn't ya know?
Boxing Day [2003-12-22 15:38:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
We always did all the gift stuff on Christmas Day so as to get it over with and start getting drunk for New Year's. The 26th is a new thing here. New Year's Day is really quiet, nobody out, hangovers all round. V-8 Juice and beer is my remedy. And/or brandy and coffee. And/or whiskey and raw eggs with tobasco and salt. Basic hair o' the dog.
The day before New Year's Eve [2003-12-22 16:30:00] Morticia~
I don't care for all the hyperbole of New Year's Eve, but I have learned to handle it by celebrating it the night BEFORE.
The reasons are manyfold but the main ones are:

A) Less chance of getting stopped in a roadblock.
2) Yelling out HAPPY NEW YEAR in various drinking establishments drives most ppl to apoplexy patiently trying to explain to me that
"It isn't New Year's Eve tonight, it's tomorrow night".
Repeatedly.
Till I repel them home.


Then I start the rounds of visiting various friends' houses after the bars close to wish THEM a Happy New Year. After being sent home by the last (by-now-ex) friend, I crawl into my thilthy little trundle bed and sleep till 2:00 p.m. then crawl to the can to technicolor-yawn into the big white throne, choke down a few hairs of the dawg (yes THAT dawg) via a Beer and Clamato-fest then retire to bed again at 6:00 p.m. I sleep happily through New Year's Eve, oblivious to the throngs paying twice as much for the same meal at any other time of the year in various restaurants and the goobers making merry in the venues that cater to such affairs, with their cheap paper hats and outlay of crusty, chunky spam-and-cheese pates and stale crackers. Slopping sub-rate champagne out of plastic glasses and waiting for the countdown so that they can shamelessly grope and slobber all over each other in a parody of rapture. Not I, no no, I would rather be up bright and early New Year's day gloatingly phoning everyone at 9:00 a.m. to tell them how great I feel (which of course would be a lie because it takes me 2 days to get over a 'Night Before New Year's Eve' bender) and offering to come over to cook them a greasy plate of underdone sunny side up eggs.
Good Plan [2003-12-22 17:45:00] Hieronymous Biscuit
If I celebrate at times when other people aren't, I get in less trouble. And if you've got your appetite back by New Year's Day, the local hotels have some good brunches, usually chefs on the line, not just a buffet. I should volunteer to drive on New Year's.

We also have boxing day on the 26th and we don't do a damn thing about it. When I was younger I always thought boxing day was about boxers (the fighting type, not the shorts type) and thinking, what the fuck do they have to do with xmas?
A hollow love [2003-12-25 01:15:00] Frank
Love that isn't returned is nothing more then an empty box, it's imcomplete and pointless
