'has changed', or just 'changed' would've made more sense. Pretty cool though.

It's me, drowning_in_tears. Remember? You wrote a comment on my livejournal entry about how I was planning to kill my mom for making me tidy my room.
A hater he came and sat by a ditch,
And he took an old cracked lute;
And he sang a song which was more of a screech
'Gainst a woman that was a brute.

He also seems to have body mass, a physical impossibility in a world of stick figures. Otherwise, the weight of the large, talking hat would simply snap him in twain.

Yea, but I just realized that the alt. text doesn't make sense with a girl there. (Or maybe it does? 0.o) Meh, I'll edit it later if I don't feel too lazy. Hooray for failing!

Well, this particular world of stick figures seems to permit the wearing of hats in general. The body mass is clearly a fat suit.

Does this have to be a redo of an existing comic, or can it be original (well, as original as black and white stick figures can be, now)?
Cuz i got some, and one or two are indeed, slightly worse.

I had not checked this thread in a while since there was a bit of a slump with a lot of sub-par stuff at one point. Which means that (a) I missed xkcd's "guest appearance" ;_; and (b) I just had the most ammusing ten minute thread catchup in my browsing history. Some of these are frigging excellent. I especially liked the Pope's hands and all the meta-My-Hobby ones.
