Cat Burger - Gator Days

Characters

Catrick C. Cattington IV - Catfish - He might be a CEO of a company who is worth millions of dollars but he is just like you!

Stuart - Quokka - A perpetually smiling Sectional Manager. He tackles every problem with motivational corporate speak intended to maximize collaboration and synergies among all employees.

August - Alligator - A soft spoken single father who works in IT. Gustopher's dad.

Transcript

Panel 1

Catrick is filming an ad for a fast food restaurant's new product. He's excited to share it with you. He's wearing and tie so you know he means business but he also has a sweater vest on so you'll know he's friendly. He's also wearing gloves so he doesn't actually have to touch any food. There's a sign in the background that says "HOME SWEET HOME" which everyone hopes will disguise the fact that they're filming this in an empty conference room.

Catrick: I'm taking a break from my busy CEO schedule to show you our new product. Yummy.

Panel 2

Catrick is now sitting in front of a TV that says "CAT BURGER" with the Cat Burger mascot in the middle.

Catrick: I enjoy consuming product while sipping a loss leader and watching content on the subscription service.

Panel 3

Catrick has found himself two more food items from the Cat Burger menu. He's trying his best to keep them from getting too close to his mouth. In one had he has fries and in the other he has "Pistachio Spice" seasonal frozen treat. Does not actually contain pistachio.

Catrick: I like to finish my meal by dipping my added value side in a seasonal item. I do this several times a week.

Panel 4

Stuart is by the camera and giving Catrick feedback. No one has realized that no one has removed the cap from the camera. August from IT was brought in to see why the camera isn't recording anything. He's just standing there in stunned silence. He will not be getting Cat Burger for dinner.

Stuart: GREAT WORK, SIR! Highly relatable.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party.

We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness β€” or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

When August Met... (Part 1/4) - Gator Days

Characters

August - Alligator - A single guy working in IT at a tech start up. Has a lot of trouble talking to people.

Transcript

Panel 1

August's roommate has dragged him to another party. August has mostly just been standing around awkwardly while everyone around him shifts and moves around. No one has complimented him on his shirt that says "VIDEO GAME JOKE".

August: Why did Seth have to drag me here? I hate parties.

Panel 2

August looks around and decides that he might as well make the most of his time at the party.

August: Well, I guess it would be good to socialize. I rarely talk with anyone.

Panel 3

August has decided to be brave and find someone to hang out with. He's found someone with potential and says hello.

August: Hey cutie! Mind if I sit with you?

Panel 4

August is now sitting on a couch with someone's pet dog on his lap. August now watches everyone else socialize while he pets the dog.

August: This counts.

I'd say it counts.

Mewbert and Nougat - Cat - Animal - August and Gustopher's pet cats.

Transcript

Panel 1

The power has gone out and Gustopher is trying to figure out what happened. This has also conveniently made this panel extremely easy to draw.

Gustopher: Dad! Did the power go out?

August: I think so. Help me find my phone. I'll get a light.

Panel 2

August has turned on the light on his phone. This means I actually had to draw this panel. Mewbert is peacefully sleeping on the couch in the background. Gustopher is momentarily stunned by the light, but at least his dad found his phone.

August: This will help. My phone should be in this room.

Panel 3

Gustopher is confused. His dad is looking for his phone while using said phone as a light. He fights the urge to say anything and wonders how long it will take his dad to realize what's going on. Mewbert is annoyed at the commotion. Nougat has found herself on the top of the couch and is amused by the commotion.

August: I was just using it. I don't know where I-

Panel 4

August suddenly realizes that he is using is phone to try to find his phone. Embarrassment washes over him. Gustopher will remember this.

August: Oh.

Mewbert closes her eyes and attempts to go back to sleep. Nougat watches from above and it calculating how funny it might be if she pounces on Mewbert right now.
