Comment of the Week

I eat again at the so-called Soul Food place, and yet again I fail to consume a soul. Am I misinterpreting the signs, or is this place lying to me? The owner pries into my writing. I tell him only truth, and he seems troubled. Perhaps his soul is troubled. I could calm it. I could devour it. His partner is nowhere to be seen. The restaurant is empty. Today I will eat soul food.

OK, I know I just said this, but it bears repeating. “What the fuck?”

For Better Or For Worse, 3/27/05

Various real-world demands on my time will probably keep me from catching up on my comics for a bit. However, to keep you all amused in the iterim, faithful reader Tim Begley has a great idea: comics haikus! Go ahead and post your favorite comics-based haiku in the comments to this post. Tim gets us started:

Old hubby shoots blanks
Brian Good has super sperm
Anna gets his ‘gun’

The best of the best get posted in a future metapost. Now go to it!

I’ve had a longstanding self-imposed ban on serious cussing in this blog, on the logic that due to its nature little kids sometimes find their way here by accident. Still and all, sometimes you’ve just got to say: what the fuck?

Update: Speaking of B.C. and the f-word, check out this hilarious installment of Medium Large, brought to you by the fine people at Drink At Work. (The archives for this funny strip are also available.)
