In my haste to post this morning's blog, I forgot to include an explanation of the rather... unique sound effect in the second panel.
It's actually a very specific reference to my good friend Mitch Clem's old journal comic San Antonio Rock City. Specifically, the comic where he shoots me in the face.
I was always a little disappointed that "cha-bert" never caught on as a sound effect...


Maybe it never caught on because there’s an actress with that as a last name, and I got confused why Tom was smacking a Benbot in the head with her.

Oh, you’re thinking of actress Lacey Chabert?
No, no, no. The emphasis is on the “Bert” – hence the hyphen. “Cha-BERT!”
