I went searching for the PVP proposal strip in question, but it looks like old PVP strips are only accessible if you're a patron of Kurtz's these days. If you're interested in joining, the storyline should be somewhere in the August 2007 vicinity.

But, in short: two fictional webcomics characters got engaged and Maureen's all about it. (Did you know PVP started in 1998?! I HAD FORGOTTEN THIS.)

By the way, today (February 1st) is Hourly Comic Day! It's exactly what it sounds like. A bunch of cartoonists document our dumb little lives for every hour we're awake and then share it. I'll be sharing mine on Instagram, but I've got a busy day, so I'm sure it'll leak into Friday. If you're a Patreon patron of mine, I'll share them when they're done in one lump post to make it easy to read. :)

Here are my old hourly comics from the last several years, in case you'd like to read 'em! Big letters so they're easy to click:

I was in Denmark to teach for the 2020 and 2022 ones. There's one thing I wish I'd mentioned in the 2020 hourlies (I was headed home from Denmark): I remember seeing three average-looking American men wearing masks on the plane. That was such a surreal thing to see at that point. It was the first time I thought that maybe this covid virus was a bigger deal than we were making it out to be.

I think you already know this, but I also make a comic every morning and share them on Patreon for $2/mo, in case you're into this autobio stuff. I post them all on Fridays!

Here's the original GWS strip for today, and here's the chaser!
