I think everyone hates this kind of small-talk, but weather is the one thing that everybody has in common so it tends to come up pretty naturally. The only thing that’s worse is when some stranger starts talking to you about politics, as if an opinion were as universally understood as the weather.
This could have been a nice, easy comic, but I’ve been trying to get into three-point perspective and masochism. Perspective isn’t terribly hard, but it’s a lot more precise than what I usually do (which is ignore that perspective exists). It’s fairly time-consuming, but I’ve got it in my bag of tricks if I need it.
For a while I thought the comic would be more accessible without profanity, but I read through the archives the other day and realized that things started off pretty recklessly in the first three comics. Then I realized that I never gave a shit in the first place. It feels good to be liberated from the shackles of modesty.
