Fueled by the knowledge that the comic was from only from "the last month or two" back, I figured, "Oh great, I'll just start at the current comic and keep going backwards; it should only take me between 30 and 60 comics to get there."
As comic after comic passed before my eyes, I soon realized the comic was further back than two months, further back than three months, further back than four months. But I couldn't just give up now, not after already having flipped through so many comics. The comic I was looking for was closer now than it had been when I started; I had sunk costs and I wasn't giving up now.
Comic after comic after comic...
Doubt crept in. What if this comic was not on the website, but had instead been posted to
The Nib? What if the joke was from a different comic strip entirely?
And then, just as my sanity started slipping through my fingers, it was there before my bloodshot eyes and twitching face:
