(some of the) Original text on this page:
This page is totally based on a true story, mainly in that I AM annoyed I didn't see the comparison before. The store where I work has free samples from this carnival style popcorn machine as a regular thing (possibly because the smell of fresh popcorn makes people hungry) and I have been in a love-hate relationship with it for the better part of six years. I drew much of the last panel from memory, and while there are a few inaccuracies (including the fact that we haven't had a coffee bar for at least two years) that last panel is absolutely proof that I spend too much time in that bloody store, particularly behind the bloody popcorn machine.
I WILL say that 7 AM with nothing but the machine and my own company has suddenly become a lot more fun since I had the idea for this page, though. Ah, Green, you really do make my world spin happier.
(Incidentally, if it weren't for the fact that, well, I couldn't draw them at the time I started, LOP would probably have had a lot more giant robots than it actually does. They're quite close to the bosom of my heart, they are.)
