        Ah, yes. Thank you (on behalf of my friend).

          But why does the fan think the old man is a child?

            because it’s a small fan, this hinges on the premise that a windmill is a big fan.

              You see, the comic doesn’t denote who is speaking. So I am asking as if I think the fan is the one speaking to the old man. Thus making a secondary, arguably worse, joke.

    Would you rather fight a windmill sized fan, or a hundred fan sized windmills?

      Fan sized windmills, definitely. It’s just tiny structures. I could kick them. Or push them over. Carry them away. A windmill sized fan on the other hand is fucking scary.

        Yeah I realized when I posted, this is a no brainer. Also I’m guessing most people pick the duck sized horses as well.

      Isn’t a windmill sized fan basically just a windmill?

        I suppose. Maybe in reverse though? I picture windmills as capturing energy and fans as releasing energy.

      It’s not a political comic.

      Don Quixote (fictional character from the book of the same name) mistook windmills for Giants and tried to fight them.

      So he’s mistaking the small fan for a child, in the same way as the windmills.

      Oh they don’t fight children, they just brutally kill them.
