This entire series of strips is based upon my own Pavlovian reactions to particular words or phrases. In this case, I can’t hear the term “ward” without instantly thinking of, well, y’know.
That’s right, it’s the Jane Eyreiner’s Revenge Song! Thank you, thank you. I’ll be here all night. Don’t forget to tip your waitress.
This strip is dedicated to my friend Meaghan, who I’m fairly certain would rewrite Jane Eyre in exactly the same way if given the chance.
It’s really not that far off: many of the lessons Jane learns sound like they could’ve come from Yoda anyway. “It is not violence that best overcomes hate — nor vengeance that most certainly heals injury,” springs to mind.
It is as if millions of meaghans cried out “YES!” and were suddenly silenced. By something. I don’t know. YES.
True Story : When I was in high school, I took drama as part of the performing art magnet (also, marching band. the full nerd experience, you might think, but marching bands in the south are… dirty awesome) and got to direct. On occasion, including during my 20 minute musical I wrote myself, I wore a ball cap and a down vest and yelled “Faster! More intense!”

I’ve seen your comics. They’re not a worbby. They’re a hork. [rimshot] #tipyourwaitress
Howard Tayler, after I claimed that webcomics were my worbby, somewhere between work and a hobby. I’m simultaneously flattered and insulted.

Hey, it’s John Troutman! You might remember him from such comics as Lit Brick, Mary Elizabeth’s Sock, and Sporkman.
Someone on Twitter suggested that since there was an EGS version of Troutman, EGS Troutman should logically get turned into a woman. I could not argue with that logic. I did ask Troutman ahead of time if this was acceptable, however, as I think it’s polite to ask before turning someone into a woman.
It was, for the record, his idea to include the Sporkman puppet and make it female. It was also something I could not argue with.
I’m too sexy for my hat.
