Please Hold

Girl student waits on hold, as the automated system plays music and repeats  Thank you for holding  We value your call, and will have an employee with you shortly  Over an hour later, she's still waiting and has been driven insane

The hold line for the Financial Aid office at my school is like this, complete with the same flutey classical piece played on loop.  I assume it's to weed out the less desperate students.

Communication Barrier

Teacher: boom tish kek kek shhhhep tik bish tokka zep tikka voom boff kek tikki boom buzz thunka bringa bof tokka boom  Student: He's a percussion teacher  They lose the ability to speak non-onomatopoeias after a while


I've never seen it happen to this extent, but I've seen some teachers come close.  And I don't even play percussion.  You can tell which percussionists have missed their cues when the instructor starts shouting out their parts at them over the rest of the band.  Bonus points if he flat out ignores the rest of the band and starts air-drumming along to said part. 
That poor kid on the wood blocks last semester never got a break.

Good Jokes are in Hibernation

Little bird shivers in the snow  Your days are numb-bird

A combination of non-functioning internet and blogger issues decreed that this comic would be late.  Personal illness decreed that this comic would consist of a really, really bad pun.  You still love me, right?

Hit and Miss

Vampire in winter gets his mouth stuck on a metal pole  So let me get this straight  You pounced at someone, he ducked, an you somehow didn't notice the frozen pole right behind him  thtuck thtuck thtuck

This has been a public announcement from the Dilettante Comics advisory board, reminding you to watch where you're going.  Or else you might end up as subject material for a cartoon on this site, as seen above. 

Oh, and you also could get hurt.  That too.
