Effervescent Political Shorts

The referendum passed with overwhelming support in every state of the country. A wizard was promptly hired and a spell was placed on all politicians that had some rather humorous, yet productive, results. The budget was fixed in a few short weeks, immigration law was agreed upon and put into action, education and jobs began to improve almost immediately, and social issues were given their time in the spotlight. All of this for fear of embarrassment.

The spell was simple: any finger pointing, name calling, or character attack aimed at another politician resulted in the immediate disappearance of the offending person's pants and the expulsion of copious amounts of brightly colored bubbles from their mouth...and their undershorts. This became particularly amusing in the earliest days after the "Embarrass Them Into Doing Their Jobs" referendum, when the presidential candidates stepped up to their respective podiums and decided to duke it out by debasing each other's character. The bubbles in the room were so thick that it was difficult to make out the hilariously colored undershorts that each candidate had decided to wear that day. Probably for luck.



Good morning Random People! Thanks to The Anonymous Stranger for submitting the phrase for today's design. I know I always say that I can't draw people, but I'm really rather happy with how this turned out! Check out the YouTube channel for today's video where I go into a bit of a political rant about the use of funding for attacks on presidential candidates. I'm so political...
