Introducing Rain Delay: goofy little gag comics to keep you entertained while I work on the legit stuff. Guest Delays are welcome. ^_^
Toaster on Fire: Origins
Because people seemed to really dig the concept of Toaster on Fire (and nothing personal beaus, but it IS Toaster on Fire by the way, NOT Flaming Toasters; that doesn't even make sense XD). The joke here is somewhat cliche, but it was kinda fun to do. Admittedly the setup really felt weird to me though. I mean, I never thought I'd draw "Vivian" again, or his ex-bandmates for that matter. And yet here we are. XD
Toaster on Fire: The Actual Story
Not sure what else to say that the comic didn't say, but yes, I really did do this and no, I don't know why. Here's that PSA though for reference though - YouTube[archive].

At the top is the title "RAIN DELAY". There are two sections; the left is titled "Toaster on Fire: Origins", and it contains:
Bandmate 1:Um, guys. The toaster is on fire.Bandmate 2:Dude! I love it!Bandmate 1:Wh-what? No, it's really on fire. Where's the extinguisher?Bandmate 1:It won't be for long if you guys don't shut up and get out of here!
To the right is a section titled "Toaster on Fire: The Actual Story". It reads:
This is a toaster.
This is a toaster on fire.
Any questions?Seriously, I used to draw this stuff all over my notebooks in high school, It's kind of like that old drug PSA "This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs." You know, the one with the egg. YouTube it if you don't remember. Why did I draw this all over the place? I don't know, honestly. I just did. It's not like I ever even DID drugs. Apparently, I was just a weird kid... XD
