Reply To: A Comic For Mr.Coulton
Perhaps people’s jarring reactions are because the joke hits, then ends.
Isn’t that how punchlines are meant to work?
the girl realizes that even though she just meant that she wanted Coulton inside her metaphorically (filling her soul with song), she suddenly realizes how other people, and Coulton himself, must have interpreted it.
I thought it was meant literally? Lots of people I know say things like that and the whole “have my babies” or “I love you in a non-gay way” to each other and worse and I guess I’m just used to it. My last guild in particular were very colourful in their expressions of manly affection for one another so I kinda just assumed this was meant in the same way?
Personally I didn’t find the flow of the comic bad, nor the actual joke that bad so I don’t really agree with the proposed restructuring. Slightly too much information but not that bad!
Maybe its just a bit general-internety for these forums which seem to have a slightly higher taste level but I enjoy that kind of thing too. Give me a good mudkips anyday!
