Little known fact: Ned is actually a oolymorph. Olive=Ned. Same person/dog. That explains everything.

Also, now that you're not an intern, what are your plans?

No, you were right. I am an oolymorph.

You guys should run this on the masthead every week.

Also, I've seen Ned, but never in the same room as Batman. Hmmm.

Oolymorph is a word describing dogs who are also people with jobs.


Olive and Poochinski are oolymorphs.

The intern revolution isn't dead, Jane. It's only sleeping. And doing laundry at it's mom's.

@Dave Bow: You're making Alison mad. Please review "its" vs "it's", this is not a difficult thing to grasp.

Thanks for this, Jane.

Also, thanks for resurrecting the word "Japanimation" after it was kicked out of the vernacular nearly a decade ago.

Yeah, when did "anime" become common vernacular anyway?
Bronch O'Humphrey on April 23, 2010 at 4:04 PM Report this

I think they realized that a portmanteau of "Japan" and "animation" is indistinguishable from a portmanteau of "jap" and "animation".

@Graham
Correct grammar is one of the things we are revolting against. Grammar and speling.

Dear Jane,
I'm sorry my sister never did your portrait to put on the wall after you won my Cupcake Competition. I did very much enjoy our overlapping 2 weeks of internship and wish you all the best. Also, you are hilarious and I love/agree with your staff descriptions.

Molly, it's not too late! Is it? The bare wall of my new house needs a face.

p.s. Kintern Bow speaks for all of us.
