You see that guy over there?He hates TV Tropes.Flork of Cows is a webcomic that started in January of 2012. It first started as a simple Wordpress comic for the creator to vent his frustrations with coding, but later migrated to Facebook and Reddit, its surreal and dark humor maturing in accordance with individual strips going viral as reaction images. The comic is drawn simply in MS Paint with a sock puppet aesthetic to show that you don't need good art to make a good comic (though Flork himself is a legitimately good artist).The official Flork of Cows website can be found here. Flork's personal Twitter is here, and the comic also has a Facebook page, Instagram and subreddit. | |

Fingore: Several of his comics involve something horrible happening to a person's fingers. "Can" is one of the tamer examples. | |

Brilliant, but Lazy: Donut Dan is a Dunkin' Donuts franchise proprietor whose Dunkin' Donuts store is powered by a dedicated nuclear power plant. He comes up with the hypothetical question of why he isn't powering the entire state with his nuclear power grid, with the answer being that he doesn't feel like doing it. | |

Stylistic Suck: Lord yes. The characters are all poorly drawn sockpuppets, except in the cases where they are even worse! The whole thing is also clearly drawn in (or emulating) Microsoft Paint, given how low resolution everything is. And most of the dialogue is in all lowercase letters with No Punctuation Period. | |

Canon Character All Along | |
| Flork of Cows (Webcomic) / int_8d3349bb | comment |
Canon Character All Along: A couple of arcs have unexpectedly turned out to be origin stories for existing characters. One recurring strip depicted a man who has been sentenced to being "pulled apart by snails". This is implied to take a very long time, and doesn't kill him but does noticeably stretch out his arms. He is eventually rescued... by Merlin, who crowns him as Pat Mage. An October 2021 arc began as an Affectionate Parody of telenovelas, only to be suddenly and abruptly hijacked by Legion. The telenovela's protagonist, Gustav, was rescued from the brink of death, again by Merlin, who at this point had lost the ability to create mages, but had enough magic left to sent Gustav to another world... where he is strongly implied to become the Crusader. | |

| Flork of Cows (Webcomic) / int_9553214b | comment |
He Was Right There All Along: During the "Mage Mage" arc, Surprise Mage pulls a Big Damn Heroes during the final battle against Morgana. How did he get to the castle? Well, if you check the early strips (up until Ass Mage and friends are sent falling through a trapdoor) and turn the contrast way up, you can see Surprise Mage in the background. Surprise! He was, quite literally, with them the whole time. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Flork of Cows (Webcomic) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Surprise Mage's presence during the "Mage Mage" arc (as described below) gets a bit of subtle foreshadowing: When Bike Mage asks to join, Ass Mage says no and Sprout Mage says yes, but Bike Mage joins anyway. Turns out surprise Mage made the deciding vote. When Pat Mage asks to join, he specifically asks, "Hey, you four guys wanna hang out?" even though only three people are visible. The trapdoor that opens beneath the party leads to five chutes, one of which appears to be empty. | |

Eaten Alive | |
| Flork of Cows (Webcomic) / int_abcb9af1 | comment |
Eaten Alive: The "Mr. Business" arc resolves around the titular Mr. Business, an extremely wealthy furry who repeatedly commissions the protagonist for vore fetish art. The twist is that he doesn't actually have a vore fetish: he plans to sacrifice himself to Quetzalcoatl by allowing it to eat him alive, and is trying to desensitize himself so he can Face Death with Dignity. While it doesn't truly work, he still goes through with it. | |

Insane Troll Logic: A customer's response to their payment card declining is to apply for the store's credit card, to which the cashier can only meekly respond "ok...", believing that they can create a cycle of "infinite unending money" just by applying for credit cards. Then in a postscript implied to take sometime later, they refuse to pay off their credit card, as "it was their fault for giving me credit". | |

Running Gag | |
| Flork of Cows (Webcomic) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: A character yelling "SWEET BOLOGNA NO!" as they're being violently attacked. Every Halloween, Flork releases a strip featuring an unnamed sock dressing as "Count Shaqula. Starting with the 2020 strip, these tended to be self-aware, with the sock's friends and loved ones questioning why they have to keep the tradition up, and the sock replying in no uncertain terms that they will not stop. Similarly, every December there's a strip of a Texan man blasting Santa (or something Santa-themed) in the face with a shotgun and yelling, "Y'ALL IN MAH HOUSE TOUCHIN' MAH STUFF! MAH STUFF IN MAH HOUSE! DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS! DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS!" | |
