Student hangs on root off side of cliff Whose bright idea was it to put the football field right next to a cliff I'm starting to think it isn't coincidence that there's a graveyard right at the bottom You think I'll go get a rope A little help here Pride comes before an often literal fall

There is a time and a place to show off your mad ball-chasing skills. This isn't it.

...Cartoon physics, that is. Rule #1: You can walk across thin air as long as you don't see yourself doing it.

Anni Seed is a cartoon deer I created after binge-watching vintage Disney cartoons. In-universe, she's a 1920's cartoon character that through a series of bizarre circumstances was brought to life and now hangs out with her animator's descendant. And as you've probably noticed, she has no problem with exploiting the Rules of Funny for all they're worth.

(And don't worry about her friend - according to the Rules of Funny, it wouldn't be funny if he got hurt.)

Ninja Dachshund

He fights using "sai-sages." And yes, I made this cartoon just so I could use that pun.

12 Days of Fright

December 25, Christmas morning: Steve and vampire cousin Morvin exchange presents Steve holds book: Reducing Cholesterol Gee, thanks Morvin: What are cousins for Steve: Right Here's yours Merry Christmas Opens present, finds screaming deer phobitron toy inside Morvin: Um, thanks How mildly disturbing December 26: deer follows around the house December 28: deer watches him brush teeth December 30: deer appears in cupboard January 1: deer screams all night January 3 and January 4: paranoia grows January 5: Morvin leaves Mom: Where are you Morvin: South for the winter January 6 Mel: So you have no idea why he suddenly left Steve: Not a clue

But all it wanted was love and cuddles!

I figured that at least some of you would want to see how this resolved. You're welcome!

Yes, I know this is technically a Christmas post and that it's January, but since the twelve days of Christmas go through to January 6th, I figured I could bend the rules. This is the last one of the season, I promise.
