    Did anyone else hear Jonathan Coulton playing in their mind while reading this?

      That was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the strip.

    There once was a comic called bug
    the greatness of which made the author quite smug
    his genius was clear
    in the comedy you’d hear
    for he was the one we all wanted to hug
    that marvelous author of bug

    Mommy? Are you my mommy?
    The worst part is that sometimes creepy little dolls get left places that you would think no child would leave them in. And instead of being rational about it (Suzy must have left her dolly here), you immediately think “How the hell did that thing get there?” As if the doll actually did move itself there.

    The only thing creepy about that doll is that it lacks antennae. In bug world that would be creepy. Just like the Betsy Wetsy dolls my sisters had. They’d pee but they had no genitalia. Creepy.

    Is it odd that I read this to the tune of “Oh Christmas Tree”?

    My sister’s Barbies thought my G.I. Joe was a creepy doll…but I informed her it would be more rightly referred to as a creepy ‘action figure.’

      She’s just jealous that Ken doesn’t have guns like Joe’s.

    Okay, I absolutely understand what you’re talking about – those freaky puffy-cheeked things with hard plastic faces and painted-on eyes that skip right past the Uncanny Valley and plummet to the bottom of the Uncanny Marianas Trench – but I think the doll looks kind of cool.

    Also, I freakin’ LOVE this poem. Panel 2 is definitely the best.

    There once was a poet named Stan
    Whose poetry never would scan
    When told it was so
    He said, “Yes, I know.
    It’s because I put every possible syllable in the last line that I can.”

      If you’re a Shakespearean jackass (which I am) who pronounces “every” as “eh-veh-ry”, that actually flows really quite well.
