Description There is absolutely nothing funny about suicide.

Which is a lie, of course, otherwise I wouldn’t have drawn this strip. But just in case you don’t think suicide is funny, I drew Winslow in the background getting burned in a lasagna accident. Because almost killing yourself without intending to kill yourself is always funny, no matter what.

Winsolow's hair is on fire! But he doesn't have any hair, so I guess it's just his head that's on fire...

Kind of. But if I drew a monocle, you'd know. Because it would be as ostentatious as possible.

I think Quentin has more problems than just having suicidal tendencies every other Tuesday. Not only he has Marilyn's wig, but the dress.

Hmm, anyone who decides to leave behind a pretty corpse obviously hasn't seen too many people at room temperature recently.
Good ol' Winslow, breaking up the tension. Is that the kind of thing that counts as an everyday occurance in their house? Ben doesn't even notice. XD

Is Quentin male to begin with--and is merely dressing himself up as Marilyn to leave behind a pretty corpse? Got to love Winslow having an accident in the background.

Also, suicide isn't funny--unless it's done in cartoons--in an early episode of the Simpsons, Homer tied a large bolder around his neck and wandered off searching for a high place to jump. One onlooker remarks that Homer is going to do himself in. Another remarks that maybe he's just taking his boulder for a walk.

Yes, Quentin is male, and yes, he's dressing up as Marilyn Monroe.

I really want to know how Winslow managed to set himself on fire putting a lasagna in the oven. Given his history, I know it's entirely possible, but I just want to know 'how' he did it.

Women that kill themselves tend to do it in a way where who ever has to clean up later after them, doesn't have to clean up much. So leaving a pretty corpse can be accurate. As long as they dont sit around for weeks dead in horrible heat. Unless you like that kind of thing.

AK-Is-Harmless In reply to YourUndead [2011-09-07 00:56:44 +0000 UTC]

Seeing as how Quentin plans to hang himself, I don't think it's possible to be pretty in the end.
