T-Rex: Pathetic fallacy is when nature reflects someone's emotions. It happens whenever Shakespeare gets pissed, and then the dude who he's pissed at gets eaten by a bear!

Narrator: LITERARY TECHNIQUE COMICS
Narrator: today's technique:
Narrator: PATHETIC FALLACY

Dromiceiomimus: That's not pathetic fallacy! It's when you give emotions to the inanimate: "ice wants to float", and so on. It can also happen when weather mirrors a character's emotions, like when Shakespeare gets sad, and it starts to rain. I think that's what you meant?
T-Rex: OR, when Shakespeare gets pissed, and then a bear shows up and eats whoever pissed him off!! Hah, looks like YOU pissed off the wrong playwright, dude! He's in with the BEARS!!

Utahraptor: The phrase comes about because of the "pathos" meaning of "pathetic"!
T-Rex: Yes!

T-Rex: And "fallacy" is there because in real life it doesn't actually rain when I get sad.
Utahraptor: Maybe it doesn't happen for you because YOU'RE not a main character! In the story of life?
T-Rex: I don't know why you'd say that to me, Utahraptor.

Narrator: MEANWHILE, IN TUDOR ENGLAND!
T-Rex: William Shakespeare, if you were pissed off at me, would I REALLY get eaten by a bear?
Off panel: i don't even know who you are!!
