A Cute WHAT?!?! Tweet After drawing it, I decided not to submit this one to the newspapers. I think you can see why.
Sexism!! Tweet The statistics given in the first two panels are accurate. If “Gunsmoke” were remade today, someone would make sure that Matt killed an equal number of men and women.
Sentence Finishers Tweet I had a coworker who was very dedicated to hospice patients but I came to hate talking to her in the office. Every conversation took twice as long as it needed to because she would finish my sentences–incorrectly.
Somewhere in What? Tweet My wife liked this one, but I think the general reaction to it has been, “What?”
Venous, pronounced “Venus” Tweet My original idea for Pete’s misunderstanding may have been funnier, but I was afraid it would hurt someone’s feelings. (I don’t mind causing offense, but this was just making fun of someone’s name and that seemed needlessly hurtful. It’s a blurry line.)
Waffle Additives Tweet Waffles with chocolate chips are my favorite. I tried adding M&Ms, but I think it would have worked better with the minis. I used to put pecans or walnuts in my waffle mix, but decided they maintain more of their crunch (and just as much of their flavor) if sprinkled atop after baking. You don’t really care, do you?
Jar-Jar Strikes Back Tweet Actually, I don’t like referring to the famed director as “Jar-Jar Abrams” because I think the character of Jar-Jar was a more positive contribution to the Star Wars franchise than anything Mister Abrams has done (or is likely to do). I wish he would have just stuck with screwing up Star Trek.
Sad Songs Say Too Much Tweet I can’t tell you where this one came from because I don’t remember drawing it.
You Are What You Eat Tweet As you probably already knew, flamingos are pink because of all the shrimp they consume. I just wondered what would happen if a flamingo ate lots of guacamole. I’m guessing it would die, but would it turn green first?
Soy Milk Blues Tweet My kids had to drink soy milk for a while when growing up. I tried it. Didn’t hate it, but it wasn’t something I wanted more of.
