Your enjoyment of it is very much going to be determined by whether or not you are amused by things that are so unfunny they wrap back around to being funny.
Why can't I stop laughing at this
"This Room is Full of Magicians!"
I feel like these are probably funnier if you actually read the original strips first.
I bought a new car with a manual transmission. I figured something was horribly wrong when it started changing gears by itself. But when I brought it into the mechanic he just looks at me and says, "Sometimes, shift happens."
People say I suffer from soap addiction, but I'm clean now.
That's a lye.

I saw all these little envelopes pop up on Facebook when I was browsing with my phone.
Like, someone would post a sassy status, like, "And then I kicked him to the curb!" and there'd be an envelope.
And I was like, did they send him out in an envelope? Is that envelope full of sass? Is it a sarcastic envelope? I don't know how I should be reading that envelope.
But it kept popping up. Like, on the Cake political page (also, for fuck's sake, people, they have a page for their opinions and they have a page for their music and this gets pointed out every time John McRea posts something libertarian) John McRea would post a libertarian article and just one word. "Thoughts?"
And then people would be like, "I liked you guys when you made music!" Envelope. Was there hatred in this envelope? Were there receipts that they are using to show that Cake used to be a band in that envelope?
And it KEPT popping up. Again and again. "Going to Vegas." Envelope. (Clothes in that envelope? Gambling money in that envelope? Plane tickets in that envelope?)
"Got sick at work. Heading home." Envelope. (Prescription in that envelope? Doctor's note in that envelope? Sickness? In that envelope?)
It was breaking my sanity. I googled it. Nothing. Nothing on the know your meme page about envelopes on Facebook. Nothing on Facebook about envelopes on Facebook envelopes. Nothing.
I was at lunch with a friend yesterday, and I asked him.
"Hey, what's with all the envelopes you posted on your wife's status?"
"What?"
I pulled my phone out.
"She said, 'We should be at the beach and she posted a tiny wineglass, and then you posted tiny pictures of, 'beer glass, beer glass, martini glass, cocktail glass, envelope, beer glass, envelope, martini glass, margarita glass, envelope, smiley face, and then a heart."
I handed my phone over.
"Oh. Those aren't envelopes.
"They're emojis that aren't supported by your phone."
Envelope.
"A new take on the epic fantasy genre... Darkly comic, relatable characters... twisted storyline."

ONE CAN SEE WHY THIS WAS UPSETTING ME
Like I thought, "These are either envelopes or windows. Why would they be windows?"
Envelopes are the obvious choice because they can mean so many things

It took me a while to figure out that you were talking about those little unsupported emoji symbols, actually
It took me a while to figure out that you were talking about those little unsupported emoji symbols, actually
I've never seen those as being envelopes before
I think my main thinking on this was, I typically browse Facebook on my computer, where all the emojis load, so it didn't even cross my mind that there would be unsupported icons on the phone. It just didn't scan that these were phone specific emojis on Facebook. So I thought it was like, a new emoji trend.
And the worst part was, when I would try and explain it to people, I'd say, "Why are there so many envelopes on Facebook all of a sudden?" and people would look at me like I'm a crazy person. Like, I spent a good fifteen minutes on my laptop trying to find those envelopes to show to a friend but none would pop up and I was just like, "Huh, must be a slow time for those envelopes!"
"Why are there so many envelopes on Facebook, Will?"
"What are you talking about, Gettings?"
"Envelopes. Everywhere. On every post."

Yeah I've never actually had the problem on Facebook, which is part of it for me. I don't really use Facebook on my phone much though. So I've had it with text messages and stuff, and I just shrug my shoulders because I'm not really an emoji person anyways.

Because McGann Hurt Eccleston
I immediately read that as a variation on "why is six afraid of seven" but the numbers didn't quite line up and of course the War Doctor confounds numbering anyway and it was just.... niggling.
