It took all of my will power to not include a "Dare To Be Stupid" Weird Al reference in the comic itself.

I ran into a bit of trouble while attempting to write the script for this comic. Not because I didn't know what I wanted them to say, but because I was having trouble writing it down for some reason. It all fit together in my head, but I would draw blanks when I actually sat down to type. I would keep looking at what I was writing and lose track of what I wanted to write next.

I eventually happened onto an odd solution, which was to close my eyes while typing. It wound up adding a bit to the editing process as I wasn't able to see when I made mistakes, but it allowed my stream of consciousness to just flow. It's a technique I'm going to keep in mind in the future, as the whole "drawing a blank when I just had a viable script in my head" dealie" is something I've had to deal with before.
