Okay, just a couple quick things. First, *eventually* updates to this webcomic make their way over to tumblr, but, sometimes they're kind of delayed. Sorry about that.
I am very good at updating on tapas though, so, if you want to stay the most up to date, definitely follow me over there, or just check back frequently. Every week, a post goes up on Tuesday and Saturday on Tapas, BUT there are also bonus comics over there! *sometimes* I remember to post bonus comics over here, too, but not always. So there's WAY MORE to see over there. Check it out here:
Also when this particular update went up on tapas, somebody told me "that's not what cacophony means" and then provided a defnition complete with synonyms and I found the whole thing very annoying because while the primary definition of cacophony is "a harsh or jarring sound" or "a harsh, discordant mixture of sounds" it has a second meaning which is just "an inconruous mixture" or "a striking combination" which is how I was intending it. What I/Ryan was trying to say was that he had several, disparate reasons behind his decision to kiss Kyle for the first time. So like don't try to condescend to me about my vocabulary because I will get irritated about it and then I will be annoyed at myself for getting irritated about something so silly.
Also it's like banned book week so I am going to post a daily bonus comic both here and on tapas, as they are already done and I can schedule them ahead of time so I won't have to try to remember to post them a second place. So. That should be fun.

Big Workers In NXT (and elsewhere)
After watching NXT this week I noticed that certain larger athletes are not being used as you might expect. Losing to smaller workers but not in a way that makes sense to me.
So after watching Ember Moon beat Lei’D Tapa I was disappointed with how things went down. Tapa outweighs Moon by around 100 pounds and the match started with her dominating for a short time. After she stopped to trade insults with the crowd Moon bounced back and starting pounding on the larger woman. Her blows seemed to be more effective than Tapa’s own. After only a handful of strike Tapa was in groggy enough for Moon to climb the ropes and hit her ridiculous finisher.
I understand this a way of continuing the build the momentum of people they are trying to push and have no problem with smaller wrestlers beating larger ones. I like a good underdog story as much as the next person. I actually have always favoured the smaller wrestlers but I would like some sense of reality in wrestling.
I’d like it if when a smaller worker is down for the win they get it in a sensible manner. If the worker is a high flyer maybe they could use flips and quick strikes. Try tiring out the big man rather than going blow for blow. Maybe have them work a leg to cause the bigger competitor to drop ready for a ground assault.
Something else to watch out for is doing an unrealistic moves. Watching a small guy hit another small guy with a hurricanrana is great. But it looks dumb when the 5′7″ guy does it to somebody 6′6″.
Rey Mysterio is a great example of how a smaller worker should work with a larger opponent. His work as the “Giant Killer” in WCW never had him or the guys he worked with looking stupid (other than the fact they were working for WCW).
In closing it is a matter of suspending your disbelief but there is such a thing as taking it too far. But then again if you enjoy the silliness of it all who am I to judge? The more we watch, the more people will promote and likely we are to find something to suit our taste.
