The Word Weary (Webcomic)	comment	The Word Weary (sometimes called The Word Weary Comic) is a Stick-Figure Comic webcomic about disappointment, loneliness and love centered around John Kossler, an Author Avatar, and his friends.The author, John Kossler, makes light of his depression and his position as the omega male in his group of friends. When the comic begins, the audience is introduced to Yorick Kingsley, a performance artist who is somewhat mean to John, Jason Kirkwood, a hard drinking misogynist philosopher and the only member of the group who was in a relationship when the comic started, and Sam Kirkwood, Jason's younger brother and the voice of reason in the group. Soon the characters meet Harry the Hipster and his girlfriend, Elly, an independent Fiery Redhead, to whom John finds himself instantly attracted. Later introduced are Lillith, a girl who plays Dungeons and Dragons and thinks Nerds Are Sexy, her friend, Grace, who prefers being alone to having to deal with immaturity (while still deeply wanting to love and be loved), and Lillith's socially awkward stalker, Nick Trotmann (who's ALSO implied to be an Author Avatar).The comic is heavily Slice of Life (almost to the point of being a Journal Comic) and much of the humor comes from the friction between the character's personalities. Kossler makes use of puns, Black Comedy, sarcasm and the occasional Bottom of the Barrel Joke. Strewn throughout are Wham Episodes in which all pretense of humor is dropped and the emotions of the characters are explored... but these are pretty rare.The Word Weary is notable for its tight narrative (issues #4-#79 comprise one day in Webcomic Time) and attention to continuity while maintaining the humor. Kossler has also mentioned numerous times that he tries to make the female characters in the comic as realistic and relatable as possible- while still featuring misogynistic male characters. The comic updates on the 10th, 20th and 30th of each month at 6:00pm Eastern US time.

"Just imagine everyone you know disappointing you monumentally! That way you get the satisfaction of being right when they inevitably do and you've gained an important skill! It's called 'foresight!'" "Yeah, buying shit I don't need with money I don't have to make myself feel better when I have no reason to do so. Fun."

The Word Weary (Webcomic) / int_596f675a	comment	Smoking Is Cool: Played straight: Grace is the only character introduced so far who smokes cigarettes regularly. She seems more relaxed and at peace with the world than the other characters. She also has a nerdy white friend who looks up to her. Inverted: Poor Trotmann is the opposite of cool and he smokes hookah at the lounge in which John works.

The monsters featured in the game are also drawn more realistically, with the notable exception of the White Satyr. It's subtle, but the color palette becomes much more drab after the start of the second day. (See Darker and Edgier). During the "Guest Comic Week" that John Kossler admitted he had authored himself, there is a furry comic, a Photo Comic and a parody of Peanuts.

The trend continues in Day Two. As of this writing, it's about lunchtime the day after the story proper starts... which means that, in 140 comics and over a year of updates, it's only been about 24 hours.

The Word Weary (Webcomic) / int_fb8b5014	type	Talking to Themself
The Word Weary (Webcomic) / int_fb8b5014	comment	Talking to Themself: John and Poor Trotmann refer to themselves in the second person during their one-man conversations. Sam takes this to the next level by talking to one of his hallucinations. A very meta example: During the infamous first guest comic week that John authored himself, each comic was prefaced with the correspondence between him and the person making the guest comics. Since he wrote them himself, he was literally talking to himself. Elly when she's trying to console herself.
