BOB: Sorry I'm late to game night!
RAY: Dangit Bob! I sprained my thumb twiddlin' waitin' fer you! I gotta turn tonight's bout to my understudy!
[[RAY'S understudy is a duck. Wearing shoes, pants held up with suspenders and a top hat. Let's call him DESMOND, for the alliteration.]]
DESMOND: WHAT SHALL WE PLAY?
BOB: Well typically we do a few ten-dollar rounds of Rock Paper Scissors.
Can you manage that? I mean with the feathers an' all--
DESMOND: I DO NOT KNOW IT. IS IT SIMILAR TO DUCK DUCK GOOSE?
RAY: Go with him here Bob.
BOB: I guess it's got some similarities in the random nature of it all.
DESMOND: DUCK DUCK GOOSE IS OFFENSIVE MINSTRELCY!
BOB (to himself): Dangit why do these things always turn POLITICAL?

The computers tell me it was 20 years ago, June 9, 2006, that I arrived in New York for my first-ever comic convention as an exhibitor, MoCCA.
It was an important trip for me, a milestone in what would go on to become my career.
I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
