If I wasn’t me and I read this comic, I would hate me. And for the record, I stopped eating tasti-d-lite not on account of the fact that it’s sad (it is) but because it’s total garbage (it really is). Now I just sit on my couch in my boxers and cry softly into fruit parfaits while watching Cheers reruns. Two of those things are true. Also I hate sharing, unless it’s an even split on separate plates. That’s alright I guess. But there’s nothing more irritating then when someone asks for a bite of something and then they take a huge bite that’s basically half of the thing I planned on eating in full. That shit makes me crazy! I actually had something important to link down here but now I’m all bothered about nothing and I can’t remember. Um..it’s really lovely today, if you’re inside, you should go outside. If you’re a real life friend in the bay area, you should call/email me, I’m coming home for awhile. Let’s get ice cream.

now this is minimilist bitching at it’s finest. if tasty d ice cream is really garbage, what’s the problem with sharing it?????
well, even though it’s garbage, I still WANT IT ALL
I am terrible at sharing food and am a total dick to people who ask to do it, so this blog post made me feel briefly justified before I remembered, oh wait, Julia Wertz is a terrible misanthrope who hates people.
My boyfriend and I share practically everything (except for the goodies I eat in secret when he’s not home), we often eat off one plate. This is less an act of love than it is an act of laziness, because we hate dishes.
it feels weird to love a comment about how much I hate people
If you are coming to the east bay at all during your visit, check out CREAM (cookies rule everything around me) on telegraph in berkeley. I knoooowwwwww Telegraph sucks butt but this is totally worth it. 2 fresh baked cookies encasing a scoop of awesome ice cream for 2 DOLLARS!!!!!!
I’m with you on the no sharing thing. I know a lot of women, who like to share meals. I used to have a strict no sharing policy, but I’ve loosened up a bit. Also, if I’m on a date, I don’t want to offend the woman I’m with by not sharing. The whole thing is weird. Why would I want to share what I ordered? I ordered it because I wanted the whole thing, not because I wanted to only eat half and them eat half of the crap they ordered. I totally understand.
Wow! Please save the first two sentences that describe this comic. They’re golden! I know I’ve had a long + tiring day, but I read the comic , + the 2 sentences + thought: wow! Those sentences really DO make me feel sad! Great mood writing.
I get a little steamed when I get chinese take out with two sets of flimsy plasticware and I get the stink eye for asking for one set of chopsticks. Even if I was eating with someone, I’d still like to show off my chopstick skills I’ve honed from years of eating with chopsticks alone. Mmmm. You know what I want? Pizza.
I get all passive-aggressive about sharing food. I’m all, “Sure, you can have a bite” and then I stare at them the whole time they are doing so.
My guess is the fruit parfait is the not true part.
you have a way of putting things that makes nerds want to hug you
…not including me, i feel like hugging you at anytime would end the same way as that time i tried to pet a stray cat,
*HISSS!!! clawclawclawclaw*
I need a new comic!
DANCE INTERNET MONKEY DANCE
zoe if i ever date you, smother me in my sleep
i always play ‘guess how many people the chinese place thinks i’m ordering for today’ by counting the number of fortune cookies in the bag. fuck them, they don’t have all the things i want in one box so i just have to order ten pounds of food, that’s all.
