TEXT OF COMIC:

So we're biweekly now.

Weren't we biweekly when we first started?

Yes, but in a different sense. "Biweekly" can mean either "twice a week" or "once every two weeks." We were the latter; now we're the former.

Why aren't we... triweekly? Or quadra... quinta... tetra... penta...

I laugh at your attempt to understand numerical prefixes.

You know what I mean.

Yeah. But our artist is afraid she won't be able to keep up with a schedule like that, at this point in her life. She hopes that later she'll have more time.

That's bogus. I'm sure she has enough time already.

Yeah. Considering that we only get to experience existence when she draws a strip of us, you'd think she'd have the basic human kindness to make some time and draw us a little more often.

So if our strips are now twice as frequent, does this mean that we exist twice as much as before?

Maybe. But don't get excited. We're still fictional characters.
