It was a bonus SMBC comic you'd get to see if you voted for SMBC as best webcomic on some website. It's no longer used.

According to the translating website I used, your name means "Ice fox of nine tails". That's way too long. What do you want us to call you when we're making fun of you/talking about you behind your back?

Then wouldn't it be easier to just call them bonus comics?

Edit: Koori, means ice. That's what I usually go by. And that translation site is pretty good, it means 'Nine Tailed Ice Fox'

Gotcha, Koori it is.

Well you voted to see the extra comic, so votey makes sense.

I know that, but you don't really vote for them anymore, the name just seems a tad bit inappropriate.

Wouldn't you agree, old sport?

I don't think changing the name from one five-letter word to another is 'easier'. In fact, the meaning of the word is easily understood if you actually think about the context it is being used in. Of course, people who think are becoming a rare sight. Back in my day, everybody thought before posting, and everything was good. Sure, we had to walk fifteen miles uphill through the snow in order to access the internet (it was called the 'tele-message repository' back then) but that time gave us a chance to come up with truly epic material. And we didn't resort to any fancy-pants pictograms to come up with names, either! Twenty-six letters in various combinations; that's what we relied on. I mean, if you're going to post in one language, you may as well name yourself in the same language. If it was good enough for my Grandpappy, it's good enough for me! Kids these days, no respect for their elders! Get off my lawn!

It's fine. No worries. I once wondered about what votey was. It was glaringly obvious. Also, what translation is it?

On another note; I just finished reading through the regular archives, this comic is totally freaking great :D

Would you guys recommend I read through the classic comic archives? I read about 12 of them, ehh... they just don't seem as funny, what do you guys think?

You mean the 3 horizontal panel ones? They're all right.

Powerpuff girls avatar? Really? Also, I'm part of that 2% but I don't feel like putting it in my sig, I like it how it is.

Honestly I really enjoyed them, and their sort of worth it in just a completionist mode anywho.

So an Ice Kitsune? Neat. Welcome to the comic, it is random and awesome.
