Haha look at me pretending to be on a date in this comic. I don’t date, it’s the worst.
I did a really fun interview with Elizabeth Ellen and her teenage daughter Andie for Hobart, read it here!

Not gonna lie…I’m totally jealous of your life. I hate sitting in this tiny cubicle, 10 hrs a day, 4 days a week. Im really regretting not having paid more attention in art class.
Dating’s the worst, but you know what’s good? Hot, sweaty, nasty, dirty, meaningless sex with one of your cartoonist groupies. I’m just sayin’.
Ha!
Your final line “I’m the Envy of every 12 year old boy in America” is a similar comment I make, when people come over to my house and see all of my comics, music, movie posters, (room devoted to toys) and all of my comic art and illustrations. I’ve spent my entire professional career working in the toy industry, candy & gum industry and comic industry. Never going to get a real job. (though since I live in a house, don’t need to masturbate in a closet. Plenty of rooms…..
haha, a closet? I don’t masturbate in a closet, there is clearly a bed and nightstand in that room. I do, however, eat in darkness and shame, burrowed in the corner of the closet
Yes, but I would think masturbating in a closet to be more exotic.
Or maybe that’s just me…………….
I love how your cat always looks mildly pissed off in your comics.
Peep Show? Nice!
Nice Cabaret reference… And there’s nothing wrong with masturbating in front of a cat… as long as you’re not touching it.
that guy looks like an updated oliver.
A date? What a sense of humor! I just assumed it was some Platonic dude friend with no dong. I mean, come on, I know what comic I’m reading.
Yeah your right, I am jealous of how you live, especially having your own place. I hate staying with my parents over the summer waiting for school to start up again and trying to draw my own comics and work on other shit while the dog is barking and my Dad keep bugging me, asking me dumb questions.
+1 for Lin’s comment
You left out the undying fame part. I was browsing at Forbidden Planet in Union Square, and they had TWO copies of “Drinking at the Movies” on the shelf. Same number as the hardbound collection of “Reid Fleming: World’s Toughest Milkman,” which I consider one of the great works of genius.
i think you should reconsider your no-date policy, but just don’t ever go out with any guy who has ever read or liked your comics because those guys are creepy!
Awesome comics! I always need the laugh! Come see our new blog when it comes out!
Quite agree, I would rather bodysurf on broken glass before dating again.
Ha, wait – am I the only one who saw the bit about sleeping with a girl in the interview?
I’d like to be a cartoonist, but I don’t really have to work for a living. I’ve only sold two of my gag cartoons and I had some of my old comic strips published in a Spanish surrealist comic anthology, but I wasn’t paid for it so it doesn’t count. When did you start making money of your work? Well, I read three of your comics tonight and so I guess I have to say you’re okay. For some reason I’m really tired. Goodnight!
