I was roughing out a box for a layout concept I was working on, and decided to take a different tack. But I still had the faint beginnings of a box on my paper. I couldn’t very well just leave it there unused, now could I? That would be irresponsible and wasteful.
So I drew a beefy guy struggling to lift the box, which was deceptively heavy considering it was only half-drawn. Boxes are like that sometimes. Especially doodled ones.

Perhaps it’s not a box at all. Methinks it’s a slab.

Slab.
I’ve always loved that word, for some reason.
Slab slab slab slab slab slab slab slab……
Such a great descriptive word. It even SOUNDS heavy.

Were you ever prone to hangin’ out on the slab at AHS? Maybe that is the hidden reason for the love of the word.

Bwahahahaha! Noooooo! The good ol’ slab never had much appeal for me. Thanks for the flashbacks, though.
