Monday, April 14th, 2008Hey kids- I’m getting ready to leave for the west coast for a few weeks, so I’ll be updating only my blog while I’m gone. Until I leave, I’m not going to update much because I’m working a lot to save money for the trip. You can help me out by buying drawings, paintings and mini comics in the store
Note to cartoonists/story tellers: We’re looking for cartoonists and short stories for Vice magazine’s Colt 45 mini comic book series. If you’d like to draw a story already told or you have a story (there are really strict/retarded guidelines) email greg at greg(at)viceland(dot)com for more info. (ps- if your illustrations are accepted, you get paid! wheee!) The first deadline is in a week, but if you can’t make that one, there are 2 other books so you can submit stuff all summer. But make sure you email Greg to get the guidelines first.
Also, I will be at some tables at the New York Comic Con this saturday-at Friends of Lulu’s from 3-4pm and at Indie Spinner Rack from 4-7pm with Sarah Glidden, and at Stumptown in Portland, OR on the 26th &27th

If your illustrations are accepted, you get paid… does that mean if your story gets accepted you get paid, too?
I can’t draw, and I need money
Silly/retarded guidelines makes me think that all he wants is porn and erotica, in which case I’ve got just what he needs on my harddrive.
April 14th, 2008 at 9:12 am
stories aren’t paid for, only illustrations. the guidelines are just strict since it’s sponsored by the beer company which means stuff like no nudity, barfing, etc…it’s pretty dumb but easy money for a cartoonist.

Aww damn.. for a hot second I thought you said, “noodz.” Not that I’m like the lovesick puppies you’ve been attracting these past couple weeks… but I am a guy, and noodz are *ALWAYS* a good thing. Well.. almost always.

Phrozt - yes! you are a guy! now stop letting the side down, and next time you make a mistake about adult content have and decency and keep it to yourself rather than telling people what really goes on in your mind. You give decent males a bad reputation. Really lazily falling into cute sexism is the worst way to be degenerate. I hate being mistaken for you guys, we might not even be the same species.

lando likes boys.
are you going to sketch stick figures like you did when you went to chicago?
April 14th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Julia, I drew you a pitcher.
It’s related to your previous post.
I hope you rikey.
April 14th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
Ah poo beeries. It doesn’t post images. Well, it’s here:

…geesh, feel like my comment doesn’t belong, but…
Have a safe trip to the left coast. Where will you be? Inna show or reading or something?
April 14th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Nevermind…I read the blog. Portland and SF…have fun. Sell lots.
April 14th, 2008 at 5:51 pm
Slightly random selling question, but if I purchase a drawn panel could you sling in the Fart Party book as well. I don’t mean for free, just the shop don’t take pay pal. Bit bugged with my card as well as it’s a debit card not a credit card (U.K.).
Have a good trip though Julia.

Lando:
Since when is liking nudes bad? Liking sex isn’t neanderthalish, nor is it exclusively MALE. And repressing your sexual desires isn’t forward-thinking social progress, it’s being fucked up and repressed.
As usual, Julia said it best:
“I don’t know if you’ve noticed this ‘I have feelings’ trend that’s going on with boys, but WHAT THE FUCK? I never go home with strangers but occasionally I’ll go home with someone I do know, and we’ll be about to have sex and suddenly he’ll get all sensitive and shit about whether or not I’m into him or if I’m just here to fuck. And I’m like, ‘yeah…I’m totally naked with a condom in my hand and I’m here to cuddle?’ Maybe it’s this whole new movement where women are all empowered and shit, but that doesn’t mean that men have to step into our old role of wanting things like ‘relationships’ and wanting to talk about ‘feelings.’ If I wanted to fuck a pussy, I would’ve been a lesbian.”

your words are always golden matthew
April 15th, 2008 at 12:43 am
It’s cause I steal Julia’s. I just quote intelligent people to make myself sound smart and appealing. Heyyyy…wait a minute, I could be a college professor!
April 15th, 2008 at 12:48 am
the name of the game is skillful paraphrasing and plagiarism. why make up something from scratch if you can “borrow” someone else’s work?
April 15th, 2008 at 12:50 am
I like the “cut of your jib” sir.
April 15th, 2008 at 4:49 am
Its not a trend for men to have feelings, they always have done. Personally, I love sex and avoid relationships (eventually marrying someone seems like the meanest thing you can do to a person), but if a guy wants to know where he’s stands with a woman after they sleep together its not a charecter flaw, he’s showing good judgement. I bet no-one who’s posted on this page can say they’ve never ever had sex where they end up getting knocked about by circumstance and consequences because they didn’t look before they leapt.
Are nudes bad? no, they’re not that special. Is enjoying sex exclusively male? definitly not, but men think about so much more, and for plenty of guys sex is not the lowest common denominator.
Men don’t have a monopoly on thinking about sex, you’re right, so why should it ever be ok to say “I am a guy” as an reason for it. Saying “I’m human” would be better, in as much as its saying “I’m flawed”, which is how Phrozt meant it.
Fuck, its the same thing as saying
“Sorry, I screwed up the till tonight, I am a blonde!”
or
“Sorry your mother and I had sex while you were out, I am a guy”
Neither of these would hold the same weight for me as “I am a motherfucker”.
April 15th, 2008 at 8:54 am
oh jesus christ, go get your own fucking blog if you want to ramble on and on about shit no one wants to hear. I’m pretty sure that’s the legal definition of “blogging”
April 15th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
i’m pretty sure i’ve seen that exact entire paragraph being made fun of on SomethingAwful for being a waste of bandwidth and carbon molecules. plus are you a dude lando? i cant even tell which side your arguing from…
way off topic and you probably don’t know but why hasn’t PBF updated for like an entire month? is he finishing a book or something?
April 15th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
Holy mother of flamers….
Is the only reason you care about “how you stand after you have sex” is to make sure it’s still kosher to share panties and makeup?

Go to town, Lando.
April 15th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
okay, first of al, Phrotz and Lando, DO NOT “go to town” or I’ll fucking block you both.
PBF quit. Probably because jackasses like you guys keep calling him PBF like it’s his name.
April 15th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
Instead of a breathalyzer for your computer you should have a one of those things at the bottom of the comment box that makes you type out a special series of letters… like the ones that protect blogs from bots… buuuuutttt… the area you type in has a series of jokes, that you have to rate a certain number of stars, like on netflix or something… there would me a margin for forgivable error, but basically you have to have decent sense of humor to post a comment. Once you fail, that computer will be blocked from commenting forever. It would get rid of your neanderthal problem. I bet Nate could make that happen. And I got my ticket dismissed totally based on my dashing good looks, wertz. The judge LOVED me.
April 15th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
fuck you, renier, my ticket was $35. I better see $35 worth of pothole fixing stat! and I don’t mean filling it with garbage. I’ll pay Nate a million times that much to install some kind of comment filter. Actually, they have something like that at Gawker.com. In order to even be allowed to comment, you have to pass their funny/clever/relevant test. genius! but also retarded, because who the fuck has time to prove themselves as a commenter? I feel pathetic enough as it is commenting on my own website. bleeh i hate myself right now.
April 16th, 2008 at 12:28 am
Awwww, skwertzy.
April 16th, 2008 at 1:32 am
ah damn gurewitch quit? shit… pbf was awesome… and no i wasn’t calling him pbf. i know better than that fart party. and im done commenting forever im sick of FP. good luck with the comics julia! its been fun keeping up with them! you’ll make it big time i’m sure of it.
April 16th, 2008 at 11:04 am
He didn’t quite quit. He’s going to make new ones “when he feels like it”, and he’ll be working on some other stuff. He’s been doing these since he was nineteen or something, and now that he’s actually making money he’s taking a break, which is a really bad career idea, but whatever.
Oh, and Julia, Nick’s gonna be at Stumptown, if you’ve wanted to meet him.
April 16th, 2008 at 11:16 am
I’ve already met him. and I don’t think it’s a bad choice at all, it’s none of our fucking business is what I think. matt, are you gonna come to the Guapo reading on friday before Stumptown?
April 16th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
I am also Nick, but not the Nick Matt is talking about (i think).
However, I would like to meet you at Stumptown in Portland as well, but…theres LOTS of stumptowns. Care to clarify which one?
In the interest of making your life easier, I’ve linked to all the Stumptowns in Portland and you can just say “That one.”

So I did some research on the Interwebs and it seems like you’re going to the Stumptown Comics Fest? Which, ironically, is not at a Stumptown but at the Doubletree Hotel??
Sorry for the back-to-back comments…Im bored at work today and don’t mean to come off stalkerish
April 16th, 2008 at 1:25 pm
no, not that stmptown
this stumptown:

April 17th, 2008 at 4:24 am
Hey Julia, are you only heading over to Oregon for Stumptown or are you going to be able to make it back to SF?
April 17th, 2008 at 8:16 am
… No one ever spells my name right. It’s phonetically correct people.
Anyway, it sucks that PBF quit. He’s the reason I found Fart Party in the first place. While waiting on him to make a new comic, I was reading some of his interviews and he mentioned how funny this comic is.
