Sometimes they might be related to the plot, other times not at all.

Like, I sent these to Jon my freshman year, probably in an AIM message, and two years later I’m posting them on the web. This one seems like something I came up with after a night of sleep deprivation.</p> </div> <p class="postmetadata">Posted in <a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archives/category/comic" title="View all posts in comic" rel="category tag">comic</a> <strong>|</strong> <a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archives/23#respond" title="Comment on #005">No Comments »</a></p>  </div> <div class="post"> <h3 id="post-21"><a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archives/21" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to #004">#004</a></h3> <small>Monday, February 25th, 2008</small> <div class="entry"> <p><img src='http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/submit_bitches-copy.jpg' alt='04' /></p> <p><strong>Nick:</strong> Another “classic” strip, written a few years back, although recent events forced us to reevaluate the tastefulness of depicting an authority figure brandishing a presumably loaded firearm in a university setting (our original concept). I can only think of a few other scenarios where implying student/professor BDSM would be considered “more tasteful” than something else. Sadly, ongoing litigation prohibits me from describing one such instance about which I may or may not possess first-hand knowledge. (Hint: It involved a Thomas Pynchon novel, a fifth of espresso-flavored vodka, and two-and-a-half hours underneath the pews in the campus chapel.)</p> <p><strong>Jon:</strong> Yes, I do realize it’s a poor character recognition strategy to have Chris Susan wearing something different in every strip…oh well. He’s the one with the ridiculous hair. I guess that doesn’t help, does it?</p> </div> <p class="postmetadata">Posted in <a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archives/category/comic" title="View all posts in comic" rel="category tag">comic</a> <strong>|</strong> <a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archives/21#respond" title="Comment on #004">No Comments »</a></p>  </div> </div> <div id="sidebar"> <ul> <a href=http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com><img src="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/wp-content/themes/white-as-milk-10/ebafblack2.jpg"></a> <strong> <li class="page_item page-item-77"><a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/about" title="ABOUT">ABOUT</a></li> <li class="page_item page-item-74"><a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/archive" title="ARCHIVE">ARCHIVE</a></li> <li class="page_item page-item-10"><a href="http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/characters" title="CHARACTERS">CHARACTERS</a></li> <li> <ul><a href=http://exoticbirdsandfruit.com/?feed=rss2>SUBSCRIBE</a></ul> </li> </ul> </div></strong> <div id="footer"> Exotic Birds and Fruit © 2008 Jon Swihart and Nick Martens <br />  </div> </div>  </body> </html>
