Maybe it (96) wasn't supposed to be funny. Or rather, maybe it was supposed to be a more narrow band of funny.

For instance, I thought it was funny that Thief and Red Mage would get into some weird metaphysical debate about the nature of Experience where Red Mage understands Experience the way it works in RPGs and Thief understood it the way real people do. But my roommate thought it was absolutely hilarious! He's taken quite a few philosophy courses so that whole "Kant" thing really hit home with him.

Then again, he is a Philosophy major after all. You really can't trust them .

Wait, does this mean that Brian himself is a Philosophy major? Does anyone know? It sure would explain why he likes to do freaky comics every now and then.
