The touch of rust on my salad fingers...
is almost orgasmic...

Replicantten

Survival of the fingerest. Nature and human have sometimes very different ways of taking count.

The brilliant title is funnier than the (tired, old) joke and punchline

Er... where are you from, that jokes about extra digits are so old and tired that it bears mention? I presume some swampy locale where "keeping it in the family" is either the tradition or the only option?

Venar

Ah six fingers, I guess he grows up to write the journals... </gravity_falls_reference>

Finnish_Line

I've never seen this joke before. Weird comment FUJITSU.

RaveBomb

Tough kitty today.

LieutenantDan

I feel like "LOL" is a dumb comment, but that's all I want to say: LOL.

FourthNail

I am looking for a six fingered man... he killed my father.

Shark.Fighter

funny and sad.. reminds me of how normal people don't like someone to be *too good at something. once you are extremely good at something, the praise then turns to 'has too much time on his hands'(no pun intended), or come up with reasons why that person has an advantage, or otherwise try to tear down the person with a natural gift or talent, or who otherwise put in massive amounts of time to develop a skill. they can accept someone who is slightly better than them, but not someone who is extraordinarily better. /rantover

After the first panel I was expecting a very different strip.

It is all fun and games until Fingers McChokesalot gets pushed too far...

Something_Sinister

ooooooooh, I get it now! "digital" as in "digits" as in Fingers. damn, that took me eight hours to get.

I presume Fujitsu refers to the, "Set up expectation, invert expectation, then return to the original expectation," style of the joke. Which seems an odd thing to criticize. It isn't a tired joke so much as one of many ways to structure jokes. Unless Fujitsu literally means, "Shadow puppets that are more realistic than they should be." And I still think that's odd to criticize, because that isn't a joke. Just, like, a tool you can use within a joke. It all depends on execution. And this was executed pretty well.

One of these days, the comic will be a really long GIF that turns into a terrifying screamer-type image. It will sure scare the hell out of people searching for the cat.

Twenty Sided

I really was expecting it to cut away to a slavering wolf.

wormspeaker

Does it still count as a hidden kitty if you need to use photoshop to alter the contrast in order to see it?

maso

...Well it IS an unfair advantage.

MrSammich

That was actually a pretty good set-up, I think most of us can say we where expecting another mountain lion situation, but ya got us Katie!

Spman2099

Fujitsu, could you please provide an example of this joke being used anywhere else? Are you conflating the joke itself with trappings of the joke? If your primary problem is that shadow puppets have been used in jokes before then I can't say that I find your criticism to be particularly compelling.

J. D. Milknut

This kid's existence is kind of dark when you consider that his extra digits were probably why he was abandoned...

Mikhandrei

Dude, long-sleeve-mode Malachi w/ short hair and sweater-mode Seventeen look totally kickass.

C-can they stay looking this awesome forever?

Talyn Rahl

HA great comic Katie, nice twist on the old joke and extra fingers guy is... Really quite creepy!

Also totally expected shadow kitty, was glad you outthunk me.

tinwatchman

"C'mon, guys! What's the point of being seen a freak all my days if I can't have THIS?"

I AM TRULY AMAZING!!!!

Milachi's haird is growing, yay!!!

Normal color vision has it's limitations I guess, kind of makes me glad that I have perfect color vision instead.

petrepan

@xaosandhavoc I think most of us could see it without altering the contrast. (I could) I'm not sure there's such a thing as magical "perfect color vision".

Laika Clementine

Poor extra handed dude. He looks like a Dr. Seuss character.....the color palette especially helps in that department.

I like how the dog shadows even had their own expressions for the better dog shadow.
