and a random participant
will be written into the story!)
To encourage replies for the above incentive, I will make this post a shockingly rare interactive one here at Scouring Monk. As the headline reads, this is my 700th post here. Now, I know most of my readers have only been around for a year or two of my decade-plus run, but I'd still love to hear what your favorite memory so far has been. You can even demand that I do more like that, if for some reason I don't do it enough or haven't done it or have stopped doing it. Your comments could very well shape the future of this blog!
But if you say you want these silly "cartoons" to end, you are out of luck. They are continuing one way or another. Cows gotta cud, yo.
Also, stay tuned, because there are freebies available on Friday.
And belatedly, I'm embedding some future knowledge on you fine folks, in case as I suspect there be stragglers. After April there will be a whole format change here. I am going to be reintegrating to some extent my many spinoff blogs. Posts during the week will feature classic content from them. Other posts, probably limited to once a week, the continuing Eponymous Monk story. And I will be bringing back the Best of What's Around feature, which most of my readers didn't even realize was happening when I did it during the original Direct Current phase a few years back. BoWA will be a repurposing of my favorite material from other bloggers. I realize blogging, especially in this community, is an essentially reciprocal event. I don't necessarily want to do what other people do in that regard. I can't just participate in announcements. I crave a more critical participation in events. I like to be creative. So that's what's going to happen.
Things are...changing. Are you ready?

They're all equally awesome in their own way.
I like all your posts...I'm a pretty big fan of your blog. I like your lists and I like your essays and I love that you put so much thought and effort into them.
Your comics are killing me, though. I literally have 5 loooong Post-Its on my desktop now filled with Eponymous Monk notes so I can keep up.
It's okay to laugh at me. I get that a lot for some reason.
For the benefit of other people who don't realize I know exactly what's going on, I know that these strips make it incredibly hard for people to leave comments, especially since these strips aren't even traditional funny haha strips. The format was going to be changing with the next series anyway, and now the last series will definitely take this into account.
So all the people who have gone silent though not necessarily away, just know that I know that you know that I know what's going on. Or something.
