Some critics, such as Eric Burns of Websnark, have found the comic to suffer from "incredibly slow pacing" (as of March 2009, only about 2 months of in-universe time have elapsed),[73] unclear direction or resolutions for plot threads, a lack of official character profiles and plot summaries for the uninitiated, and an erratic update schedule.[8] Burns also harshly criticized the often uncanonical filler material Gallagher employs to prevent the comic's front page content from becoming stagnant,[8] such as Shirt Guy Dom, a punchline-driven stick figure comic strip written and illustrated by Megatokyo editor Dominic Nguyen. Following Gallagher taking on Megatokyo as a full-time occupation, some critics have complained that updates should be more frequent than when he worked on the comic part time.[8] Update schedule issues prompted Gallagher to install an update progress bar for readers awaiting the next installment of the comic; however, it has since been removed as it itself often wasn't updated.

I always figured that it referred to a gigantic oversized cowboy hat like the one Yosemite Sam wears. naturally I also assumed that some cowboys must wear gigantic oversized hats, because otherwise why would they draw Yosemite Sam that way?

i think it was in cattle maybe but I'm too lazy to look it up

but yeah turns out carrion eaters have a vital role to play in an ecosystem and as usual, humans will gently caress it up and then go "why does this keep happening to me???"

also farmers cannot be trusted to not wildly overuse any and all chemicals (more == better) and gently caress up the environment and themselves. there was some super hosed up story of farmers in India putting benzene on apples to make them look shinier and fresher.

Each verse mentions two things that the man would do for love, followed by one thing that he will not do. The title phrase repetition reasserts that he "won't do that." Each mention of "that" is a reference to the particular promise that he made earlier in the same verse.[6] The four things he says he will never do are:
  • "forget the way you feel right now"
  • "forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight"
  • "do it better than I do it with you"
  • "stop dreaming of you every night of my life"
