Snow Monster

I hope you don't misinterpret this drawing and erroneously assume that the snow monster is about to eat that poor bear. Snow monsters don't eat bears. They throw them... hundreds of miles in some cases. This relationship is mutually beneficial to bears and snow monsters. The bears get an exhilarating trip to a distant mountain range or parts of the sea they never would have visited otherwise, and the snow monsters get to vent some frustration. We call this kind of relationship “symbiotic.” The point I'm trying to make is that you'll never get these last two minutes of your life back. Sorry about that.

  1. first to post! Man, with airline tickets like they are, I should just go piss off a snow monster.

    My favorite part is the wrap-up sentence. No 2 minutes is wasted on laughter. I sound like a hallmark card.

  8. Aww, that poor little bear. Bet he never thought he'd be so quickly thrown (pun intended) to the bottom of the food chain.

  9. I thought the bears were in the ocean because their iceberg melted? Darn Al Gore's not pulling the wool over these eyes again.
