you know, i was thinking that same thing you realized when i was reading these. but i really appreciate you posting them - interesting experiment.
August 6th, 2008 at 10:48 am
ahahaha, I disagree. These are hilarious.
August 6th, 2008 at 11:21 am

Oh “Everybody Does This” is definitely the best one! Also, very somber.
I guess this is a meme now…
August 6th, 2008 at 2:01 pm
you guys are a bunch of fags. and what is “meme”?
August 6th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
No, GMG is so much more depressing. It shows Jon’s life in a third-person perspective as opposed to first-person. Julia really did know Oliver, so making him disappear makes her look like a schizo instead of a desperate loser (Jon Arbuckle).

I laughed until I cried
August 6th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
shut up Julia, you are a fag.

Looks like my life too, minus the boobs and vagina.
The Napoleon Dynamite doppleganger in the video used to beat me up in high school.

A meme is a piece of culture or a trend that reproduces very quickly, almost like a virus. “Over 9000!” is a meme, and “All Your Base are Belong to Us”. So is that goddamn CaramelDansen thing.

i still have your book on my computer desk. it has a thin layer of dust on it.
August 6th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
how about fart party minus farting?

“Looks like my life too, minus the boobs and vagina.”
I don’t think my computer’s working right. I don’t see any boobs or vagina.

“The Napoleon Dynamite doppleganger in the video used to beat me up in high school.”
History is going to repeat itself “Nick.”

I am at war with the fart party comment section posters and their fey sensibility! brooklynvegan.com = next.
August 6th, 2008 at 9:06 pm
Just spent a few minutes giggling like a fucking maniac in the dark. Awesome sauce.
August 7th, 2008 at 1:00 am
haha, I hate using the word cute, ’cause it’s like cutting off my own shrivled balls and eating them in front of my whole family - but those really were cute toons & the video; Made me think of my buddy visiting NY right now & what he’s missing out on. I miss dorking out like that :-/
August 7th, 2008 at 4:38 am
Who the fuck still says “emo”?
August 7th, 2008 at 4:58 am
Never seen GMG. Still pretty funny.
August 7th, 2008 at 6:16 am
awesome sauce? dorking out? emo? it’s like you guys barfed up 1997 all over this comment section. nice.
August 7th, 2008 at 8:02 am
You better be right Austin. I need a good sucker punch to the face.
August 7th, 2008 at 8:18 am
love your artwork and writting funny as shit please keep it up as a comic dealer who is soooo bored with even the so called alternitive press yours
give a life and reality before country gos under when obamarama hits us in the face
August 7th, 2008 at 8:42 am
Heh.. the funniest part about this page, is that after you show yourself acting schitzo in your comics, you show a video of yourself holding a decently sized knife.
A newcomer could get quite the impression from this page alone.
August 7th, 2008 at 9:36 am
I think the ‘everybody does this’ works just as well with Oliver removed, albeit on a more lonely level.
August 7th, 2008 at 6:16 pm
love it! but can’t watch the youtube vid, *sadness*
August 8th, 2008 at 8:05 am
because I’m so lazy, I can’t be bothered to look up the origianls in the archives - anybody got links?
August 8th, 2008 at 10:18 am
well, you could just save your time and buy the fucking book, you cheap, lazy bastard.
August 8th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
That video frightened me…3D Julia is a concept I’m not ready to accept just yet.
The new ‘I Heart Your New Song’ works very well…that’s the exact same way I react when I watch reality television.
August 8th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
“…3D Julia is a concept I’m not ready to accept just yet.”
that’s fucking ridiculous. don’t you think you’d be far more frightened seeing a 2D CARTOON CHARACTER cutting shit off of subway walls? plus 3D Julia isn’t a concept, I’m a real person. Maybe people just don’t understand that and that’s why people think it’s acceptable to do things like throw chocolate milk at me or call me “snowflake” (aw bushwick, I kinda miss ya! but not really)
August 8th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
At this point I’m not sure what is and what isn’t real anymore…
August 8th, 2008 at 10:40 pm
’snowflake’? that’s a new one. Hopefully, that (and esp. the milk thing) wasn’t from anyone in Brooklyn, or I’d be terribly sad.
August 9th, 2008 at 1:54 am
ugh…1000 plus views of a video of me at my worst. i hope glinnde-penebacker made herself a nice little futon to sleep on out of all the money she made from this little snuff film.
i am deleting my 3d concept self as we speak.
August 9th, 2008 at 8:18 am
“snowflake” and the chocolate milk incident were both from people in brooklyn. have you ever been here? it’s like random target city over here. but I didn’t mind the snowflake bit.
austin, if you delete your 3D concept, who is going to do funny impressions of everyone? we will all expire from boredom.
August 9th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
lets just solve these arguements by seeing some good ol’ BOOBS! whip ‘em out Julia!
August 9th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
ugh. this is what baffles me about the internet, you would never say that to my face. Hiding behind internet anonymity doesn’t make you any less of a douche.
August 9th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
The “Everybody Does This” and the “Eating in Bed” were fucking brilliant! Makes me want to go through my copy of Fart party with White-out.
Nah.
August 9th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
the hell i would!
booBIES! booBIES! booBIES! boobooBIES! booBIES! booBIES!BbooBIES! booBIES! booBIES!IES! booBIES!! booBIESbooBIES! booBIES! booBIES!! c’mon Ju-ju, lets see ‘em!
August 9th, 2008 at 5:36 pm
yeah so i ‘m a dirty douche who loves boobs, boobs of all kinds!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:36 am
I never understood the guy who’s “thing” it was to be the crass asshole that pissed everyone off.
August 10th, 2008 at 6:37 am
I guess some people are so desperate for attention, being a crass asshole (crasshole?) is good enough.
Anyway, these are pretty funny, and they hit close to home with me too: Not a day goes by where I don’t put a hand on my crotch and say “WHY?!”
August 10th, 2008 at 6:39 am
hey Zoe, lets see your BOOBS!
August 10th, 2008 at 10:33 am
zoe- I get it when someone is being crass but clever, but when there’s no cleverness, it’s just all dumbassery. Feel free to go tell “big pete” his email is procter83@btinternet.com
August 10th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
No, they’re funny, but I think you might be too close to the material.
Yes, they’re depressing, too, but that’s funny sometimes as well (see A Softer World for consistently funny, morbidly depressing comics).
It just has this odd veneer of egoistic self-referentialism. I don’t mean to be rude, but it feels like a bit of a cop-out to follow someone’s genius idea with a copycat, using your own comics.
Maybe what feels odd about it is the fact that it wasn’t Jim Davis who made Garfield minus Garfield, so it becomes ok to use it, but since you wrote Fart Party, i dunno. It’s almost as if you’re trying to get more mileage out of your strips by trying this new gimmick. Whether or not that’s the case, and while they definitely were funny, i don’t think you can do this ever again, or it will seem as though perhaps any new comics you’re writing are designed deliberately to make good Fart minus [character] comics.
But, it was really very interesting to read. I don’t mean to dump shit all over your experiment.
Ciao!
August 10th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
Julia, I have! Lived there for many years before getting the hell out & moving back to go ole crappy LI. I must’ve never gotten the snowflake calling b/c I could hide behind my facade of tannery.
As for the milk thing, I would’a punched in the face whoever did that to you.
August 10th, 2008 at 6:02 pm
kevin- seriously? hahaha you fool. not only did you dump shit all over an experiment, you dumped irrelevant shit all over it. It’s a sunday, how about some fresh air? it must be awfully hard to breathe with your head shoved that far up your over analytical ass.
August 11th, 2008 at 3:40 am
yeah, sorry, I should have clarified that I am both lazy *and* cheap.
Phew! Thanks for the reminder - it’s easy to lose your identy in the maelstrom of comment threads.
Thanks J! Have a sunny day.
August 11th, 2008 at 5:25 am
Julia - I will tell him, thanks! In fact I think I’ll drop him a little note whenever I’m feeling hateful and need to vent.
Also, itty bitty as they may be, looking at my boobs is like staring into the sun, sorry. One glimpse and you’d be left clawing the oozing sockets where your eyeballs used to be.
SO FUCK YOU.
August 13th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Zoe… I really don’t think you understand guys at all.
“One glimpse and you’d be left clawing the oozing sockets where your eyeballs used to be.”
Even if that were true, we’d still be compelled to see em. It’s just… part of being a guy.
August 15th, 2008 at 6:02 pm
uh- hilarious
August 21st, 2008 at 11:23 pm
honestly, the last three almost made me piss my shorts.
better than GMG, I’ll say.
GMG makes me giggle pretty consistently, but never even close to losing-bladder-control giggling.
