Laziness Is...Scott Stantis

Aww, rest your heads little ones. Seems as though Carmen and Winslow (and Stantis) have had an exhausting week. They're napping, but Carmen needs a reason to justify not doing anything - so Winslow offers up a handy quote from Samuel Johnson. Yup, the best way for Stantis to come up with a terrific storyline for next week is to lazy it up today.

Hmm, so what exactly were Carmen and Winslow doing all week that would tucker them out so much? Let's take a look back:

Monday: Carmen and Winslow sit on a rock.
Tuesday: Carmen and Winslow stand there.
Wednesday: Carmen and Winslow walk in the desert.
Thursday: Carmen and Winslow stand there.
Friday: Carmen and Winslow stand there.
Saturday: Carmen and Winslow jog in the desert.

Whew, I'm worn out just watching them! It must a be a HUGE strain on Stantis's mental capacity to come up with so many diverse things for his characters to do every day. And yikes, last week Carmen went to a store! I think that's the first time she's been out of the shelter or the desert in months.

Remember when Carmen went to Washington DC? Or heck, when reporters came to the desert to report on the "land shark?" Remember when things actually HAPPENED in Prickly City? Instead it's become a daily stand up show, without any actual jokes.

My advice to Stantis: you don't have to waste a Sunday justifying why you're so lazy. Just quit. That's the laziest thing you could do, and it would really improve things around Prickly City.
