BRAINPAN LEAKAGE

Hamster Month Continues on Brainpan Leakage…

Image Copyright © M. R. Sellars – This would be the only Merp Toon I took great pains to schedule chronologically in this blog series. This took place the first February I worked for the new company – on February 20th, in fact, as noted in the caption. On that day the staff of the new workplace surprised me with a mess of off-key singing and morning donuts.

For those of you who may not have caught on, today is my birthday. Back then I was turning 34. Today, I’m not. Believe me, I’d like to be turning 34 – as long as I could know what I now know. Know what I mean, ya’ know? Unfortunately, Merp still hasn’t perfected the Wayback Machine – except on paper and dry erase board of course.

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.
