Comic for the week of August 10, 2006.

[Edit on following day] After I posted this comic, Aaarhus informed me that there's another comic that made a very similar joke to this one. The comic is by Thornwolf and was made in 2003, so it predates mine pretty well: http://us-p.vclart.net/vcl/Artists/Thornwolf/Sketches/pshift.jpg I honestly wasn't aware that anyone else had made that particular joke before, much less made it into a comic. Nice comic, Thornwolf! Sorry about the similarity of joke, it seriously was coincidental. "Great minds think alike," I guess. *blush* Thanks for kindly letting me know about that, Aaarhus.

Slightly melancholy, but good...

...and now I'm wondering about the metaphorical implications of the fact that the Shift key always has arrows going up. :)

I never even realized there was an up arrow on the Shift key until I photographed it for this. I guess it's one of the things you miss out on noticing if you've been touch-typing since forever.

I figure that it just means "shift to uppercase," but in context with this comic, it looks as if it could mean something else.

"Dragon Up," maybe? *snicker*

hmm

It could mean many things... but some sould not be told on a public space lol jk no it mean that the leter your going to type is going to be biger eE!!!

or maybe its just that they did not know what to put so they say : what sould we put here ..... i know !! look up to see the result of typing with this.

Dragon up!?

I'll settle for "Wings of the dragon". Flying is fun.

Oh, am I the only one that thinks "The lesson, of course, is never trust anyone" is hardly a fair lesson? After all, they had that same excersize at a camp while spud and trixie were dealing with trolls
