Listening to the Universe Weep:
The Stark Beauty of the Buttercup Festival.
posted by kaibutsu (13 comments total)

This is my favorite comic in the world.
Realized it had somehow never been posted, despite four years of beautifulness...

Now it can be your favorite comic too!

(And you better have some appreciation for how much digging it took to find the 'Listening to the Universe Weep' strip, my favorite of all, taped for all to see on my binder full of math.)

smoking slim jims, manta rays, sentient paper plates, much hate, king ribbit, mobile centrifuges, flying pigs, the penguin proletariat, and baaaaad sheep

and of course the best strip ever

Recommendations for Buttercup Festival must be paired with recommendations for Death to The Extremist. It's some kind of rule.

I like that '2'. You know, the bright fella. But not so much '1'.
