I also hate dancing. My mother likes to go dancing at techno clubs, and I just sit there watching people gyrate around like throbbing monkey corpses. Also, I just noticed that each comic has a Facebook ‘like’ button, but there’s no official Facebook page for Bug.
The (prospective) mom-bug doing the “L for Loser” sign in panel 3 kills, man.
I, personally, like to dance. I’m not very good, but…the music just…moves me. Sort of like a throbbing monkey corpse, I suppose…
Don’t give up, Adam! You can MAKE someone hate dancing! All you have to do is be terrible enough at it, AND take them out dancing! If you’re bad enough, after a few experiences, they ought to hate it as much as you do!
Can I just say how amazing that first panel is? You’ve always had a style that tended towards the more minimalistic while still effectively conveying emotion, but that panel is a cut above even a lot of your other work. A total of five objects – seven, if you count the text – and I can practically feel the melodramatic breeze whipping by. Wonderful work!
Yeah that first panel is totally great! And it is impressive how you used the same facial expression to draw bug being desperate and laughing his ass of. So cool!
Haven’t seen that last panel trick anywhere in AGES!

‘Throbbing monkey corpses’ I should remember to use that one next time someone refers to club-seisures as ‘dancing’.
That totally should have sound “tap tap tap tappity tap”
*LIKE!*

I guess it’s back to throwing away those buy-one-get-one-free restaurant offers…
How did you blow it? Did you tell her you are a cartoonist?

Wow! Thanks! I wasn’t 100% happy with it, to be honest. I knew what I wanted it to look like in my head – got about 80% of what I pictured.

I agree. That’s a great panel.
Soon, there will be oils and canvas in your future.
My wife hates dancing as much as I do. We didn’t have music at or reception and she didn’t even notice. Its awesome.
I had the same thing happen…unfortunately there was still enough going on i didn’t get any cake
#Kudos to another fine comic while I’m back in time here
As a fellow dance-hater, amen.
