BRAINPAN LEAKAGE

Hamster Month continues on Brainpan Leakage…

Image Copyright © M. R. Sellars – The “somewhat edible substances” joke stemmed from the fact that I am fairly adventurous where food is concerned, and willing to try most anything. Not EVERYTHING, but most anything. On more than one occasion, however, some of the “restaurants” in the vicinity of the new (at that time) place of employment served some rather tasteless and sometimes inedible selections. Since one of the Phyllis and Murv dark humor road show commentaries had to do with eating paste, this Early Years toon was born… Of course, Merp, being Merp, couldn’t just eat the paste. He had to get himself stuck to the wall with it as well…

Hamster Month continues on Brainpan Leakage…

You’ll notice that I am not putting these in any particular order – well, most of them anyway. That’s because I don’t really know what the proper order is. So, don’t look for any chronological significance (except for one in particular, which will be obvious.)

Image Copyright © M. R. Sellars – During the period of paper Merp toons, there were a flurry of “The Early Years” panels, hinting at the origin of “Merp The Tech Hamster,” and even “Ex Marine Biologist Turned Supermodel, Buffy Bighair.” Only three of these “early years” cartoons still exist, the first of which depicts Young Merp’s discovery of electricity. In this particular instance the panel was drawn following an incident wherein I was shocked rather severely by an ungrounded power supply on a printer.
