PoolMan: I’m going to let Justin explain this gag to you (in case you don’t get it, which I have a sinking feeling would rightfully be most of you), but I wanted to point out that this is the first strip I created entirely without paper. Got a neato graphics tablet for Christmas, and thought this would as good a test as any to see how well I could learn to use it! But don’t worry, just cause I’m all digital doesn’t mean I’ve lost my soul like Lucas!

Justin: Maybe this one is more nonsensical than funny, but I felt the odd muse of Judd Nelson come over me and demand I write this. It's an homage to Bender's famous unfinished joke in The Breakfast Club, where an unfortunate fall robs the audience of the much-needed punchline. I guess it was a harsh, harsh lesson in expectancies or something. Hey, I'm just glad I fit in the air ducts, as PoolMan's been ballooning my character in weight to where it looks like I'm about to give birth to triplets.
