special napkin comic "good feelings"

[Click for larger image]

 

(I drew this very quickly on a napkin at work on Saturday night, and Steve 2 was all “oh you have to post that” and since I totally let him boss me around I had no choice)

(oh and it’s not a journal comic like usual, because I obviously didn’t get a gun that fires good feelings from eBay) (yet)

mine’s Peter. yeah, laugh it up.

I have kind of a chip on my shoulder regarding my middle name. Is that the right expression? Hang on, I’m going to google it. [Google Research Break!] The thing is, throughout my whole life people have tended to giggle at me when they hear my middle name. I’ve honestly no idea why but it starts to bother a person.

I have a half-baked theory but it is entirely rooted in the specific cultural background of my hometown and in any case it isn’t very interesting so I shall decline to go into it. Some people I know have middle names that really work for them, but I thought you might like to know that this comic came from a place of embarrassment and shame. Actually that sounds much worse than it is. The embarrassment is greatly diminished now, but when ever people ask me I still hesitate before replying. [April 28, 2011]

Since Friday there have been technical difficultie…

Since Friday there have been technical difficulties and real-life scheduling intrusions that I am working to resolve. Regular service is scheduled to resume tomorrow, and yes you will indeed still get the Agenda Comic that was missed on Friday, and possibly even a Super Double Comixplosion to make up for today’s absence. I ask only your patience and forgiveness in this matter.
