Line 260:
'''Torg''': I've learned that I need to appreciate you more. I've been taking your friendship for granted when I should have listened with my heart.
'''Riff''': And I learned it's OK to eat people if they're the bad guys. }}
*:* Also done in [http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=080208 this] strip. The Aesop's actually a decent one, but it's too much of a [[Space Whale Aesop]] to take seriously.
{{quote|'''Torg''': "Devaluing everything material is a road to ruin. That was a lesson Clutter Monster learned too late and at too high a price."}}
*:* Riff's story "The Isle of the Ployees" ends with:
{{quote|''Luckily the volcano was actually a magic portal that returned me to the real world. It was my salvation, not my destruction. I learned an important lesson that day. Lava heals all wounds. When life gets me down, I look to jump in some lava. Barring that, I remember that freedom is not found on the horizon. True freedom is found by looking within. Within mountains filled with lava.''}}
**::* This story also seems to have a real [[An Aesop|aesop]], which is that corporate jobs suck or something, but it turns out it's just a dream he had and has no particular point.
* From ''[[The Wotch]]'' ( http://www.thewotch.com/?epDate=2007-04-23 ) "Now Jennie, what did we learn again?" "That it's never okay to drop bowling balls on people's heads unless they are evil wizards hurting your friends."
* From ''[[Stickman and Cube]]'': "Don't think too much or you'll disappear into nothingness. Especially if you're a cube."

** Also one presented in [[The Rant]] for [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=224 this strip]:
{{quote|Tom Siddell: Kids! Guys in forests are always willing to help!}}
*:* Another one in [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=632 this strip:] "Never let sixty angry kids use a herd of laser cows to take over your house."
* ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'': Read or the owl will eat you.
** [https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/2014-11-14 Well now!] Is it possible that Susan has learned a valuable lesson about accepting herself? It's possible she didn't, and also remembers in which magical body alteration Nanase expressed interest on the previous page.
