Tina: I heard a girl in the canteen saying how much she liked your cartoon
Alvin: A girl? Are you sure?
Tina: Maybe she’ll write in
Alvin: No need. Five people already did.
Tina: Wow, so you can do another issue?
Alvin: Guess so
Tina: What’s wrong?
Alvin: I looked at it again this morning, and everything that seemed clever and funny last week just seems dull and ordinary now
Tina: Well, all jokes get old
Alvin: Maybe the jokes are the problem then. Comedies don’t win Oscars.
Tina: Sometimes they do
Alvin: But not often. Not in the main categories.
Tina: So you’re trying to win an Oscar now?
Alvin: It’s the principle. I ought to be pushing boundaries. Challenging people, not just giving them what they want.
Tina: Where would we be if Santa took that advice?
