When two outlaws get into a dispute, only Sheriff Tanglewhip can save the day! Wait, is he there to arrest these guys for stealing gold (they say they "found" it), or is he there to settle their dispute with each other? It doesn't matter, since the sheriff is only armed with a whip. Don't bring a whip to a gunfight, unless it's with two outlaws who don't want to shoot. Even his creator says that Tanglewhip is the worst sheriff in the West. I was a little fuzzy on the concept of the Gordian knot (like the sheriff), so I looked it up. It's a mythological tale that you've seen recreated in modern times. But it may as well be Greek to these guys. By the end, we all remember what whips are really for.
Tanglewhip is a new cartoon by animator Charlie Hankin. Fans are hoping he will make it into a recurring series. -via reddit
