Metapost: Two Josh-seeing opportunities, next week!
Very quickly, just want to let you know about two live events I’ll be doing next week!
- On December 4th in Brooklyn, I’ll be reading from The Enthusiast, my novel-in-progress, at the Animal Farm reading series. If you neglected to pre-order the book via the Kickstarter, you will have an opportunity to do so here! 8 p.m. at Legion Bar in Williamsburg. Click that link for more info, including info on other readers (one of whom is cartoonist Julia Wertz of Fart Party fame, with whom I trust you are all well acquainted).
- On December 8th in Baltimore, I’ll be doing stand-up with Doomhilda and Friends. 8 p.m. at EMP Collective downtown. Click that link for more info! But trust me when I say it will be super-hilarious, and I am working on a routine that will be appropriate for the first night of Hanukkah (and by “appropriate” I hope you understand I mean “wildly inappropriate”).

@Naked Bunny with a Whip (#1): Not at all! A meeting in meat-space in ultra-hip Williamsburg is, like, so post-ironic.
// See you there! (I’ll be the one in the heavy dark plastic framed glasses, goatee, and porkpie hat.)

Josh — “Wildly inappropriate Hanukkah stand-up?” Sounds great, though I would love to hear an oral recitation of a cage-match between Jesus and Santa during your routine. Just a thought…

@tb4000 (#4): She just needs Lisa’s blond bomber wig and a spot to testify in front of Congress!

Yay Josh! Have a great time and, um, break a leg!
And now back to the previous thread, which continues to grow, whether it should or not. Hmm.

Ripley’s —
“John Lefelhocz of Athens, Ohio, USA, created a quilt entirely of bicycle chains!”
Sounds like a crazy quilt to me…

Aw, geez….do I want to schlep from Park Slope, Brooklyn, to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, to experience Josh in the flesh…..?
Julia Wertz, hmmmmmm….now, if you were appearing with Kate “Hark, a Vagrant” Beaton, I’d show up. Kate is HOT.
Did I ever mention that I bought an extra copy of Beaton’s book last year at my local indy bookstore so’s I could have it personally autographed, and she drew me a picture of Canadian Prime Minister (1957-63) John Diefenbaker?

@Ukulele Ike (#11): Jeez, if I had a toonie for every time I’ve said, gosh I wish I had a picture of Canadian Prime Minister (1957-63) John Diefenbaker…

Slylock: Lions sleep even longer when they’ve been shot with Bandar sleeping drugs.
‘bean: Deep below Montoni’s, in the dark, musty sanctum of Shub-Niggurath, Crazy tells his woes to Funky. But it turns out the crazy bastard isn’t being fired, it’s just that his post office is being cut. Seeing as its only known employee spends all his time imitating a coffee vacuum in a lousy pizza joint, this is actually a good management decision on the part of the USPS. They’ve probably had complaints about mail not being delivered.
Spidey: I think I know what he wants to do with her, and I’m surprised they’re going to put that in the comix. I’m just infantilizing, I guess.
Dick: No, in Tracy’s world, he has to wear a special yellow hat.
Gil: Yeah, but Hayes’ foot was over the line into the second panel.
Nancy: So in panel two, Aunt Fritzi is staring at Nancy’s hair bow. The dotted line is an old-established method (cf. Henry) of indicating that she has seen something significant. But what is it? Dang it, Gilchrist, I’d prefer a week’s worth of nostalgia for dead pop singers to messing with established forms of comix communication.
June Morgan, RN: Why can’t they leave you alone? Because now that the fried clams have been eaten, you’re all the plot they’ve got left.

Reading from your book on Dec. 4, Josh? You’d really better start writing…

Yeah, i’m acquainted with Julia “Fuck America” Wertz. i’m just disappointed you’d be involved with this anti-American solipsistic hipster.

@Nehemiah Scudder (#15): Excellent fapping material!
Oooooh. That grossed out even me.
