    Well, it wasn’t completely unjustified. Remember that part of the show where you wouldn’t give me a high-five so I smacked you in the middle of your forehead, only to find that mere moments earlier you had found out that someone STOLE 15 copies of your book???

  2. Matthew Bernier Says:

    I figured you were mostly pining for California, and I think most folks who don’t know you figured you were just like your cartoon self in real life.

  3. Julia Says:

    yeah, that fucking sucked! maybe they stole them because I wouldn’t give them a high five either.

  4. Sarah Says:

    Maybe its because you had to sit next to me blah blah blahing the whole time.

  5. james Says:

    that bs
    someone steals your shit from a comic convention
    a place where like minded people hang out
    fucking pussies
    thats like going to your friend’s house and stealing money

  6. Serene Says:

    I didn’t take it personally. I think having to fake smile at a bunch of strangers (and apparently having your shit stolen) would suck too. Though I’m sad that I empathized so much with your misery that I didn’t get you to sign my copies. Oh well.

  7. Brian C. Says:

    Oh, man! 15 books stolen? That stinks like crap! Well, no wonder you were cranky in Portland… I thought you quit eating cheese and tried to switch to oranges. heh…. I really wanted to buy one and have you draw in it. Well, I hope the next show I can buy book two. …It was good to meet you finally. Cranky and all.

    Yeah, easy to get in a funk these days. WTF are people doing stealing shit.
    You going to be at MoCCA Comics Fest this June 7-8 in NYC?

    Since I am forbidden from dispensing with eminently useful advice, I decided to search for ‘Happiness Party’ on the Internet, to see if it would lead me to a solution to your troubles that I could point you to. Luckily, it has.

    This was the top-listed result, by the way, no doubt due to its high degree of relavence.

  10. becks Says:

    were you asked if you were mad or did anyone tell you to smile? i hate that shit.

  11. (>^.^)> Says:

    maybe you should try the paint bombs banks use next time you go to a ‘comic con’. you could potentially loose a few fans but there’s no way you can stay upset watching people get unexpectedly splattered w/ paint.

  12. whatisthewhat Says:

    Boysenberry syrup tastes better.

  13. Chris Hagel Says:

    Fuck it and fuck everyone.

  14. Julia Says:

    haha why is “comic con” italicized? I’m going to bring paint bombs to “work” and maybe “on the subway” and I will shoot them “in your face”

    and Chris- “fuck it and fuck everyone”? boo hoo, I’m drowning in a black sea of desolation and no one understands me. Plus my mom totally won’t let me spend the night at Mandy’s because she thinks we’re going to drink alcohol. No fair! I’m gonna go scratch up my wrists with a plastic fork.

  15. Kimba Says:

    “I’m gonna go scratch up my wrists with a plastic fork.”

    Fucking hysterical.

    Now I’m gonna go say it to all my friends.

  16. (>^.^)> Says:

    well don’t i ‘feel silly’.

  17. Nick Says:

    Stolen books suck…

    I was out of town for the stumptown fest and was really peeved I couldn’t go but..maybe it was for the best..

    Anyone wanna start a collection with me to replace the cost of the stolen books? And maybe a box of plastic forks?

  18. Matthew Bernier Says:

    It was maybe for the best you couldn’t go to the most successful, upbeat, money-soaked Stumptown yet because Julia was feeling grumpy and had books taken by some dickweed? Seriously?

    Maybe that’s why the Beatles stopped doing live performances.

    Paul: That stadium show was bloody awesome! I’ve never seen such a happy crowd! what an amazing experience!

    John: But I heard one girl didn’t have a good time because she had a break-up before the show and then some guy spilled a drink on her new dress.

    Paul: That’s it, we will never play live again.

  19. Berrytrees Says:

    If anyone is looking, I have 15 copies of this book available for sale. Price: $15 per copy.

  20. Berrytrees Says:

    I was just kidding.

  21. whatisthewhat Says:

    Maybe Chris meant for you to actually fuck everyone. And “it”.

  22. Nick Says:

    Wow. Did you just compare me to the Beatles? Awesome.

    I guess I’ll rescind my offer to get a collection to replace the cost of the books .. I was just trying to be nice but apparently you need to be part of the “cool kid group” to not get shat on here..

  23. Matthew Bernier Says:

    Julia: I was grumpy at Stumptown.

    Nick: Jesus, glad I didn’t go then.

    Me: That’s silly. Stumptown was actually pretty awesome. You’re letting one person’s experience cloud the whole convention.

    Nick: Well, if I’m gonna get shat on by Matt, then fuck Julia!

    Me: ????? ????????? ?? ?

    Whoa! Universal translator errors.

    “julia quote”

    Julia praise!

    Julia worship!

    I like how your comic version of events shows everyone drinking wine like sophisticates when in reality we were all shotgunning Sparks.

  27. Dave Says:

    You draw the best turds.

  28. Riss Says:

    i was like 30 feet from your great uncle george mcgovern yesterday. he gave a great speech in the Southern Dakota relating abraham lincoln and obama and said obama could be just as great as lincoln was. and then obama came up and said “All kin of George McGovern are destined for greatness and fortune.” so i guess that’s you.

  29. Matthew Bernier Says:

    He used kin in a sentence? Oh my God, that’s the best thing I’ve read about Obama yet.

  30. Riss Says:

    not really. he pretty much said “vote for me south dakota i’ll turn your streets gold!!”

  31. oliver Says:

    hrmph.

  32. MariNaomi Says:

    Was your grumpiness why you made fun of that guy’s sexy ripped pants? I want a copy of that photo, by the way. I’ve been dreaming of that hot, hairy leg…

  33. lukebunny Says:

    You were totally cranky at me when I bought your book! I’m sorry so many copies got snatched, that would make me cranky as a shit burger also.
