New Hat (lemmy.world)

Guppie shows off his new hat. Also will be taking a well needed break from Lemmy starting tomorrow. For my mental health, I am going go out and touch grass for a bit.

But the comics will continue, You'll just need to head over to my website to view them. Have a wonderful week and thanks for reading.

You have to read the comics to get it. But Guppie always having assorted items that he can't possibly have in a fish tank. You see they live in a fish aquarium in someone's home. It's the whole gag. I have several comics lined up that will be wholesome and humorous. Only few out right hilarious. I will draw some in the coming weeks that can address the questions you might have.

I appreciate the explanation but also agree that it is not very funny. Comics are cartoons and nobody takes cartoons literally, which is the whole point. Reality is suspended when consuming cartoons, so the idea of a fish wearing a hat is actually pretty sensible. I think if the fish pulled out something more far-fetched like machine guns or a sex doll then it might work. Of course those ideas may go against your view of wholesome.

Well if you read the Knights of Round table. Which is number 8 you see something like that. But no I would not do a sex doll. I have foul language comics, but nothing vulgar not for Bill's Aquarium.
