College campuses are full of smug offs. Remember kids, nobody wins in a smug off. Even the “winner” just ends up looking smug.

Prewriting is an odd task to teach. Obviously everyone does it when writing, but everybody goes about it in different ways. Still, being highly structured can be a great help for many writers for whom creativity comes in drips instead of gushes.
But honestly, this comic is mostly about mocking Kanye some more.

This is a pretty lowbrow joke. I do wonder sometimes if certain people in the media not only induce fear for ratings, but also because they perversely feed off of it in some manner, like a banshee.

We always assume our memories of a holiday mesh with those of others. It’s what makes the scene in Gremlins so powerful when she explains why she hates Christmas. It doesn’t jive with most of our feelings. It’s what makes it real, and also heartbreaking. I always wondered how diabetic kids felt around this time of year.

One of the fun things about doing a comic strip is getting to have people butcher quotes. I’m not sure why we do it so often, except it makes us laugh in real life, too.
Plus, the strip serves as a mini history lesson. Sort of.

This is a country music styled joke. A lot of country songs are built around a repeating chorus that in the last verse changes its meaning. This joke works the same way. It’s the Conway Twitty of comic strips.

Every educational institution is always complaining about the copy budget. I suspect one day this is what it will come to, if it hasn’t yet somewhere.
Dr. Klownus is looking awful dainty.

It’s usually not a good idea to leave an opening for college professors. These people tend to be in their profession because they’re fairly smart and quick on their feet. Faculty meetings like this never end well.
I like that Dr. Klownus carries around a list of students he’d like to get rid of. It’s with him at all times, just in case.

I always enjoy the idea of people not getting what it is that’s controversial about them. I think it shows a weird nexus of innocence, naivety, and ignorance rolled into one. The best part, however, is that he really feels like he gets the issue, but really has no clue. Yes, we enjoy making up things for characters to say that make them look stupid and then laughing at them. We’re bad people.

This was inspired by the occasional run in with a student off campus, and the utter shock they suffer from such incidents. I think they’re truly traumatized to realize that teachers are real people with real lives.
Dr. Klownus looks particularly styling in this comic.
