This totally sort of kind of happened to me once. Totally. I was working this temp job, and they had a luncheon. I didn’t know about it ahead of time (nobody tells the temp these things), but my boss came around and let me know that I was indeed invited to take part in the [...]

As you can see, I’m still on vacation. Thanks once again to Gabriel Reed, for the great guest comic strip! I’ll be back next week and updating regularly again. And here for no apparent reason, is a picture of a goat fish.
