Yes, more of it, and due to special request, the further discussion of Klingon characteristics. and this time, you can click the image to enlarge it for easier read-a-fic-ation!

Again, that’s all part of Sheldon. Go. View. Laugh. Make the world a happier place.

I don’t often plug something here unless I’ve something to do with it. Out of a lack of time for anything else, typically.

However, let that not be the case today. SHELDON! You need to visit this daily so go to the site and stuff the RSS feed in your reader, or sign-up for the daily e-mail of the comic strip.

Yes, I said ‘comic strip’.

On the internet, yes.

It’s like in the newspaper, only without the killing of innocent trees.

And waaaay funnier.

a strip of funny things

Actually, the independent comic artists and the independent literary press are much alike. Both shove their wares out there and hope people will buy things. In my case, books written by other people that I’ve edited and so on. In the case of Dave Kellett, it’s a case of shoving your daily panels of ‘funny’ onto the web and hoping people will buy the hard-copies of semi-regular collections of them.

I would try and explain the world of the strip, with its intelligent talking duck who’s adopted a lizard (which can only say the word “squee”) as his son, both of whom live with a multi-millionaire kid and his grandfather who mostly has a moustache (but always seems to be more like my Father than I care to consider), plus a pug named Oso who is all enthusiasm and no brain at all…

Look, just head here for an introduction, you’ll get the idea. He’s even got an audio tour you can use to acclimatise yourself to all things Sheldon.

Eventually you will be hooked. No, really.

Anyone who can make jokes based around punctuation needs to be lauded.

Eventually you will be hooked. No, really. You will, trust me. My mother recommended it, and I thought “yeah, okay, I’ll see what it’s like…” and then found that I’d spent at least an hour giggling happily.

If jokes about punctuation don’t do it for you, how about Klingons?

You see what I mean? This is not Fred Bassett, nor is it Cathy or Andy Capp. If you like those strips, fine and dandy, but I like this one better.

I’d buy the books, just to be able to lie in the bath and giggle a lot, but I’m broke (and am blatently hoping that Dave will read this and send me the lot of them… or maybe a t-shirt instead… or something…). If nothing else, I want to show my appreciation of the grandness of this important part of my daily routine by sharing it with the rest of you. This is worthwhile stuff. Even his daily posts about the strip — or even his dead scanner the other day — are funny and a wonderful break from one’s routine.

It’s fresh, it’s new, it’s silly, and it’s not going to bore you. It’s also guaranteed to start your day off in the right way: you’ll be at least 115% happier and more awesome in a fortnight or my name isn’t Séan Gemorgån.

Oh… wait…
