My writing muse says to me things like “You have written enought for today, let’s watch some cats on the Internet”
And I can’t get her to walk around me in skimpy close to boost up my inspiration 🙁
My muse shows up from time to time. Although I’m usually writing in between that time though. She usually give me a kick telling me that I’ve got this than after a couple or paragraphs or pages if she’s kind she tells me to rest.
Nope, that’s a teleprinter. You type on the keyboard, the (usually remote) computer responds on the dot matrix printer integrated with the keyboard. From before the time when monochrome monitors were common or cheap. And yes, I’m old enough to have used one (although, admittedly, as a student). Still feeling old, Rat?
that’s exactly how i feel about making fanfiction and drawing about people going to a bar.
Note to self: Check next Thursday’s comic for a butt joke (and possibly a metaphorical tuna casserole).
Tuna casserole is just a METAPHOR for love? Wut?

THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT MINE DOES.
Did we hire from the same service or something?!
What the hell are you talking about, bring on fart week!
So Phyllis Diller is your muse too!
I wish.
Or Dorothy Parker.
Why are muses always depicted as FEMALE?
Would a MALE muse inspire me to write epic fart poetry?
Huh, I pictured the cartoonist muse as The Dude.
Something like this?
That’s awesome.
Dude bug is epically awesome.
That’s Sir Richard Branson bug!
Either that, or Zaphod Beeblebrox bug, but missing two arms and a head.
I am speechless
My Muse is a dumpy little balding man with wings and a cigar who whomps me with the Frying Pan of Inspiration when he decides he cares.
Because the mythological muses were all female?
I’m a writer and my muse closely resembles a zombie. She’s starting to get a bit ripe, too.

My muse isn’t very reliable she might be too much of a hippie
Muse abuse…
I amused to it.
Why is the bug in the second panel tickling a shoe?
Wait, wait… he’s just using one of those ancient push-button telephones.
My mistake. 😉
Looks like a typewriter.
I feel so old now.
A type…what?
Oh, wait, is that one of those computers without a monitor? 😉

I think it’s an Underwood typewriter.
My muse got stoned and wondered off somewhere back in the 70s.
here is a thought….. just a quick button to add to the website itself.
like button? that way you know which kinds of jokes are liked the best?
mabye im blind or something.
and I mean the website ITSELF
there are worse muses to have

Am I the only one who, due to the association of a cartoonist and the word “haggard” in the same sentence, thought of Haggard the Horrible?
My muse comes home from work, drops her backpack cum purse, kissing me sweetly and says, “how was your day?”
And the words and code just flow.
Aww, other writers HAVE a muse? My muse is dead, I think. I try to write a book, but nothing comes out! It just dies before chapter one is complete!
