I haven’t been reading this comic for very long but I’m guessing that instead of taking a break from writing them until you come up with a funny unique idea, the alternative is to do a comic on puns or whatever this is. A lot of people like puns and old rehashes of comedy skits. Seems like the author has been busy lately with his tour. Has he even taken a break yet? I think I would have needed one.
You don’t have to be a parent to love this comic. I remember this scenario from when I was a kid. I was the pink duck. lol
