03/31/2005 The Rid (5): Now this made me laugh.

03/31/2005 Ewan Snow (4):

03/31/2005 John Slocum: let's just get this straight, for my own piece of mind: The Fyornch got his name when AVA, as an infant, exclaimed 'Fornts!' upon watching The Fyornch vigorously take her father's ass crib-side thus necessitating The Fyornch becoming Ava's lifelong father-figure/uncle-figure/friend and explaining why it might have been wierd when they have sex later on in life, and why The Fyornch, like an indulgent father, stops forcibly fucking a cop in the ass when Ava wants to go to the buffet? Right? That's tight.

03/31/2005 The Rid: I can't say I agree with some of the narrative turns of previous installments, or even the execution of those narrative turns, but I think Slocum's argument is airtight.

03/31/2005 John Slocum: What's coming out of daddy's mouth, is it the Fyornch's seed (you know he's well endowed)? And "Author": how do you decide how much of a person's face to show and how much to cut off (example: panel where dad's forehead and chin are cut off by panel frame)? And what about smell? What is The Fyornch's body odor like? Or is he a figment of Ava's imagination and, therefore, is bereft of odor? So many questions, so little time...

03/31/2005 Klause Muppet: Hi Author!

03/31/2005 anonymous: We have all the time in the world, Slocum. The stuff coming out of Ava's Father's mouth is spit! Panel cropping is done to focus the reader's attention, as well as create a physical/psychological space (or lack thereof) around the subject!I don't know what the FYORNCH smells like. I'd imagine he feels like an old leather couch left in the hot sun, though! Hi, Klause!

03/31/2005 Jon Matza: So it seems Ava's father was in a foul mood for her entire early childhood, and seeing Fyornchy sodomize him was the first thing ever to elicit a positive reaction from her (not even funny Fyornch faces worked previously). Consequently their lifelong friendship/alliance formed & Fyornch got his name. Correct? Am I leaving anything out?

03/31/2005 anonymous: Only that bringing joy to the heart of a small child is one of the noblest, most rewarding things any of us can do, Matza!

03/31/2005 Jon Matza: How much is the reward?

03/31/2005 Will Disney: HEADS UP PONY: qualcomm is scheming to keep you down in the quarterly ratings.

03/31/2005 Mr. Pony: He is? How?

03/31/2005 TheBuyer: I like the word count, but I'm confused, is this meant to
-explain the origins of the Fyornch
-how he got his name
why it's so funny in episode #1 when he fucks that corpse
-other
?

03/31/2005 Will Disney (5): He's going to sandbag this short with a low vote to kick you down to third place.

03/31/2005 Mr. Pony: I can't see qualcomm doing that. Where are you hearing this?

03/31/2005 anonymous: TheBuyer: All that and more!! (Except for the name thing. Ava calls him that because she can't say his real name.)

03/31/2005 TheBuyer: Author, by 'origins of the Fyornch' I mean did Ava manifest him in physical form or did her family have him on purpose because of cat allergies [no fur] for example.

03/31/2005 anonymous: Well, he wasn't there one minute, and the next minute, he was.

03/31/2005 Klause Muppet (4): ok... so he's obviously not killing her dad (Due to the 1st "Ava and the FYORNCH" which depicts Ava much older right after her parents "pass away"). So he's just fucking dad up the ass (or something). Which, as the author explains it, is "bringing joy to the heart of a small child" (in this case, Ava). And joy is something that Ava isn't use to having due to Dad's constant "angry" face. The more I think about it, the more I like it, but definitely not my favorite. Thanks Author, I've been thinking about this short all day.

03/31/2005 TheBuyer (5): Ok!

03/31/2005 Phony Millions: I'm glad that the Fyornch is just a butt pirate and didn't do Ava's Dad in - I wasn't sure either!

04/1/2005 John Slocum: Oh shit! This is Pony!

03/31/2009 Mr. Pony: qualcomm totally screwed me on this one.

03/31/2009 Ewan Snow: It was four years ago today, Pony. You should have a candlelight vigil.
