#33 Comic of the Day

kt-_033-comic-jpg.jpg

This really was a horrible thing to happen…and I’m sorry it’s such a cryptic and annoying cartoon, I didn’t actually want to write/draw about it, but it was so present on my mind I really just couldn’t escape it.  I’m shocked to find supposedly intelligent adults in the world who are so closed minded and hateful…and just horrible little people.  I don’t know why I’m surprised, I should know better by now, but I suppose I am eternally naively hopeful that people will get a freaking clue and be better.  I was an angry and sad emotional mess all weekend as a result of this event (lucky Adam!).  What a waste. 

Oh, and apologies for the especially piss poor art in today’s strip, my hand is still cramped from a weekend of addressing and writing work and personal holiday cards and my back is still sore making it difficult to sit and draw for too long at any one time. Now that some things have been cleared from my plate I’m hoping to do a better job…we’ll see.

    I’m so sorry that happened to you. Sometimes people are assholes. Also, I like the art this week. What are you talking about?

    are you crazy? my head looks all wonky and put on my body all crooked and my linework is even worse than usual…!

    but thanks…and me too.

    Ninth grade was miserable, but I always thought you were fantastic!
    And the art looks good too, so there! Have a good day!

    Well, that female dog is clearly not an intellectual and at the wrong party! Sorry she upset you. Most people suck.

    See, I never would have known the heads are wonky if you hadn’t said something. And I’d just as soon not remember 9th grade ever again. That’s why the high school yearbooks stay on the shelf.

    thanks for the support everybody. i have to say, it was a really crappy weekend, but in a way it was good that it happened. every once in a while it’s good i suppose to have a kick in the pants of reality.

    holly: YOU were the fantastic one…but thanks. remember the DRAMA when Adams gave the lead role in Grease to that lame eighth grader! Drama!!!!

    paul: you know what…you’re right…she was a dog…as in literally the girl was not cute. perhaps her comment as much out of some weird backwards insecurity jealousy as anything else.

    tk42one: i like to point out wonky heads…it keeps me in touch with my own personal reality :) ninth grade it seems we all agree, was crap.

    I like all the onomatopoeia you’ve been using lately. That reminds ME of 9th grade (English that is.)

    jamminjabber: glad you’re enjoying the onomatopoeia. i like it. sidenote: if my life hung in the balance and i had to define (or spell) onomatopoeia i now know i could not have done it.
