pass or fail?
Monday, March 9th, 2009the whole city lost it’s shit on Saturday due to weather. It’s like we all emerged from our dens to air out the crazy we collected over the winter. Especially this guy.

The perk of staying up until 7am Pacific time is that I get to be the first comment. This makes the insomnia worth while. PASS.

I love burritos.
I love going to the movies.
But not once had I ever contemplated eating a burrito … at the movies.
This cartoon has changed my life.

hurray! I have finally MADE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE’S LIFE. My mom is gonna be so proud!
but in all seriousness, eating burritos and drinking beer at the movies is one of life’s greatest pleasures. I didn’t figure it out until a few years ago because I was all “popcorn and soda” at the movies but once I made the switch, it makes going to the movies an entirely different experience. A much more profound, delicious experience.

seeing your comics about my life, makes me too lazy to draw some myself…
fail

I love having beer at the movies, but it seems here the other movie goers tend to frown on it (it comes from living so far under the bible belt we know the color of the navel lint of Jesus). Thus we stay home, drink beer and watch whatever movies we want.
Fun comic today too. Pass or fail, I figure every day is about half and half. of course never the way I want it to be, but still it is half and half.

Oh my goodnes, you are so much like me. Wow. — I love your comics.
March 9th, 2009 at 11:44 am
I’m going to say…pass.
March 9th, 2009 at 12:12 pm
you should have kept the odd converses! thats how trends start- you could become the queen of the anti-hipster sene! also, the “fat dude/ burger breakfast” on the fartparty flickr is like the fartparty in real-life! great stuff Julia.

if i had a dollar for every time i went out with different colored shoes on… i’d have $2.50. one time i caught myself as i was walking out the door.
and do these movie theaters SELL burritos or do you smuggle them in?
March 9th, 2009 at 2:44 pm
or…since you had a sweater and jeans on……where……did you smuggle them..on second thought, nevermind :p
March 9th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
i’ve unintentionally gone out with two different shoes before. sucks balls, don’t it?
March 9th, 2009 at 3:05 pm
also, beer + burrito + movies = definite win.
March 9th, 2009 at 3:16 pm
I sometimes wear two different converse on purpose. It’s interesting, albeit somewhat disorienting.
March 9th, 2009 at 3:16 pm
yup, everyone is too self-absorbed to notice. Ha!
awesome comic. PASS!
March 9th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
“or…since you had a sweater and jeans on……where……did you smuggle them..on second thought, nevermind :p”
there are these things called bags.

Some designer guy said in an interview in Glamour magazine that he’s started wearing two different colored Converse on purpose, as a fashion statement. You’re just a trendsetter
March 9th, 2009 at 11:22 pm
You’re allowed to drink beer in the movies? That’s prohibited where I’m from…but I’m from ontario…which is the ‘boring province’.
March 10th, 2009 at 2:37 am
Driningk beer isn’t “allowed” at any movie theaters! That’s what makes it fun!
March 10th, 2009 at 3:30 am
stellar!
but those last two fails, I’d make, ‘pass’.
also, I’ve never done the 2 shoe thing. my shoes are too much dislike each other, but I do that often with socks. to the point, where the other day going to visit my little niece, she looked at me, then my socks, then me again and asked ‘what happened?’.
also, Zoe, I haven’t been in a while, but I know when I was growing up, theatres used to sell beer.

dear jake…
the great cartoonist d.clowes calls that; ”an urban attention seeker”

Actually there are theaters which sell beer, theyre just not common. The Alamo Drafthouse theaters in Austin Texas are amazing. They blow the Angelika out of the water in terms of programming too.

My days consist mostly of “fail” moments. Yesterday I shuffled home from baking class wearing yoga pants, an old sweatshirt covered in cat hair, and flour-covered Converse.
Someone I know once told me about how a group of people sitting behind him at the movies brought ingredients to make sandwiches and during the movie were whispering at each other to “PASS THE MUSTAAAARD.”
March 10th, 2009 at 10:34 am
it’s like a double fail, but then you take the make up test and fail that too. and then you fail out of high school to marry a wealthy car salesman for a sure pass.

Saturday’s weather was awesome. Too bad I spent it indoors in a 6-hour class. Oh well, at least it was nice weather on my birthday!
March 10th, 2009 at 12:43 pm
most alcohol i consume in movies is of the smuggled-in variety, but beer at the movies is a great pleasure, as is purchasing a numbered seat so you don’t have to jostle for your seat or be forced to watch ads (yay Denmark)
recently one of my favourite bands rented out a small indie theatre for a concert benefiting the child’s play charity, and they got a liquor license for the event…it was pretty amazing sitting drinking legally-purchased beer in a refurbished theatre watching an awesome band. I thought it was a perfect evening but now I realize there were no burritos.

Hey, I was totally hung over while jogging… does that make it count less as exercise?
March 10th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
@ eva s/comicgrl
I enjoy wearing two different coloured shoes for the visual and psychological experience; I like the way it looks. I find the external attention, imagined or received, unsettling.
March 10th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
I’ve totally gone through days where I grade all my choices. It can be either a very proud day or a very depressing day.
March 11th, 2009 at 9:29 am
hung over running is hard. I have to do it sometimes (army). Especially difficult when you’re still kind of drunk and you’re trying not to let it show. Around the end of the first mile point, I can no longer decide if I’m more likely to throw up or just pass out and shit myself. (fortunately I’ve never done the latter… yet.)
But Jamil, I think it counts as more, because it’s waaay more difficult.
March 11th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
This weekend I’m going to bring beer to the movies.
March 13th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
Oh my god, you know about the engima of hiccups too! And what’s up with people who spell it Hiccough?
March 19th, 2010 at 7:23 pm
I agree. I don’t know whether it’s bad manners or just that young bloggers don’t understand the nature of the conversation.
