    This scene used to make me cry, but now I have a picture of my tourist ass crying in front of the Hachiko statue in Shibuya, while my husband and friends are all standing around smiling and having a good time, and I cant help but be reminded of how absurd my emotions can be at times.

    I'm not a spiritual dude really, but went out a walk along my old dog's favourite route today, from back when he was alive, and there were times I swear I could feel his presence. He was a really good boy.

    This one isn't depressing to me. Like yeah, sad for the dog, but it's actually a kinda uplifting message. The "second death" thing is actually something gives me comfort.

    Yeah. It would have been depressing if the name was only on the tattoo and he was saying the wrong name. Maybe make him old as well to imply dementia. Hell, make it a cat tattoo and have him specify "You weren't a good boy, but the best boy" to imply a dog and really drive it home.

    I dunno. Just spitballin'. But I agree, as it stands, it's more sentimental than sad.

    My cat Luna died five years ago next week. She was the best cat that ever existed and there’s still a hole in my heart.

    :(

    I know it sucks and I k ow this can be annoying to hear but you were very lucky to have Luna and should feel thankful more than sad. But it's okay to be sad too. Sending you some good energy. I'm going to be torn apart when my cat Goobers time is up.

    God fucking dammit, that was my dog's name.

    Two fucking years without her, and I still can't fucking see the name without crying.

    Every so often I tell my pets, who are no longer with us, that I still love them and always will.

    One of my cats had two little plush toys she loved cuddling with. She was cremated with one, and I keep the other on my desk - it's a nice reminder to just how awesome she was.

    On my very sad days I just try to remember that they wouldn't want me to be sad. They would do everything in their power to make me feel better when I was feeling low, and the thought that my dishevelled state would cause them such grief if they were here is enough to make me have a better perspective.
    It is okay to cry when it's needed too, though.

    The dog died but the owner keeps them alive in their thoughts.

    That's not as depressing as one would expect from Cynide & Happiness.

    Tbf the other comics are edgy to a point where it becomes funny. I’ve been expecting some outrageous twist in the last panel, but he’s just missing his dog. So yeah this is an unexpected 10/10 and kick you right in the feels because it makes you remember names. Well played sir cyanide&happiness

    Not only eill the owner remember the name but every sexual partner will have the name Luna in their brain for a while and also the mortician will probably remember Luna for quite some time.

    This is really a long play

    It’s based on a quote from Terry Pratchett’s Reaper Man.

    No-one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away, until the clock wound up winds down, until the wine they made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life is only the core of their actual existence.

    How can you be so sure this is a Pratchett quote? The same phrasing and paraphrased versions were used by so many people. From Hemingway to Marcus Aurelius and I think even further back to ancient Egypt. I’m always baffled when people so easily and confidently state things as fact, like you…

    I just said my pets name out loud.

    Decades don't matter.

    But soon we join the true sleep.

    So if you're unpopular and dying, public masturbatinon is beneficial. Good to know.
