The very finest in fake lies, yelling, and jokes that aren't worth the legwork
Hm. Forgot how I start my posts.Well, that’s probably as good a way as any; find below a CURATED SELECTION of the finest graphical novelties on the market, hot from the Comixology mi–y’know what no, I’m 100% sure that if I made that joke I’d get a news alert moments afterward revealing that Amazon did,…
Shortly before beginning this article I received an Alolan Sandshrew in Pokémon Go, courtesy of an egg sent to me by a pal in France; her name is Shrew Barrymore, and I’ve only had her for half an hour but if anything happens to her I will Faint everyone in this gym and then myself….
Yesterday, I called my wife at work to ask what a good name would be for a rat, not a joke-name like Brie Larson or Whisker Briskly: Private Eye, but like a good name. She yelled “MR. COFFEE” and hung up. I don’t know what she was in such a hurry to get back to;…

Nonetheless, that…

This week’s article proves my wife right about something, as all good and useful things in life do. I have offered–indeed, requested–on a number of occasions to just merge our finances and let her take care of the money, but she’s a scrupulous watcher of bank balances and tells me that she simply could not…
GOOD WEDDIN’-DAY, all. I will tell you, without shame: it’s been a rough little while, for many reasons, and it heartens me to know that I am not alone in this. Join me in taking what comfort you can from this new and tiny monster, Soon-To-Be-Celebrated Local Cat Finland J. Cat: Beyond him, and the…
This is not my usual kind of comic; I’m not generally intrigued by gangs and crimestyles and juvenile delinquency, no Kuwabara stan was I in the springtime of my youth.
