    I was just thinking about this today! I have such a hard time reaching out to people...it takes a lot for me to try, and if I get no response, it really hurts. :(

    I actually expected the last panel to be kind of a repeat of the first one, with the giraffe getting frustrated! :D

    Thank you for your comment, Raas, and you're certainly not alone in your feelings on reaching out - it's a more widespread phenomenon than most of us realize.

    I thought everyone would still be afraid to post at the end too. This is much better!

    This is great! Even as a NT it's really intimidating to start conversations and meet new friends. But, I have to for my son, who's severely autistic. I love your cartoons, Matt. Thanks!

    Yea! Good toothy smile. Sweet and satisfied -- not maniacal like showing a lot of teeth can look. Good post too! ;)

      Yeah, really, the extra-toothiness wasn't working.
