Hey Julia - glad to see Jack is drawn above I have no questions, just glad to see a new post and damn, your apartment is so cool! Stay warm! Fools like me in California have no grasp of snow.
FWIW, I loved the regular autobiographic comic updates but I totally understand being over having the most intimate details of your life entertaining us on the internet. I’m looking forward to buying more Fart Party comics when I’m done with my “hobo year” and have a home, job, etc.
Excuse me? In this day and age of chronicling every half-baked thought and movement of our boring little lives, what right do you have to deprive us of your personal moments? Are you a luddite or something? COWARD!
i always wondered how you could like, go on a date, then go home and do a comic about it.
and then the dude sees it and be like “shit, she did smell it and knows it was my fart!” and then never calls.
i started doing an autobiographical comic a couple of years ago and quit before the first one was posted.
oddly enough it had fart in the title too which is how i found your comic.
I love the apt drawing too, and remember the pipe being one of the first things you said about it’s ‘features’.
And Hey, are your breasts getting bigger ?
And can you open those kitchen cabinets behind the pipe ?
Glad to hear you’re carrying on. It sucks that the online comic won’t be a regular thing anymore; on the other hand, this may force my broke, stingy ass to actually buy your books.
Hey Julia, how’s it going? Did you ever receive my letter? Just wondering. Sorry I missed out on the Brooklyn C&G fest. That was one of the only things I was looking forward to in November. Hope to hear from you soon.
Oh, so you got us hooked on the free stuff and now we’ve got to pay? Hey, brilliant idea, actually. Who said the “drug dealer business model” wasn’t exportable to other endeavours? Nah, I’m just yankin’ yer chain. Your books are totally worth it. Here’s hoping 2010 is a great year for you (and Jack, the world’s cutest kitten).
Bah… even though you said it wasn’t shared.. the bathroom door in the hall reminded me of my freshman year where my friend and I lived next door to a guy we only referred to as “the Yeti.”
If one or the other of us had to take a shower/go to the bathroom, we’d ask the other if they knew if the yeti had been in there yet…. and believe me, the warning was well warranted.
That pipe in your apartment… you’ve talked about it before, haven’t you? Something to the effect that it keeps you cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter?
About that pipe… Doesn’t it enter your bedroom? Because if it doesn’t, this will mean your bedroom is less long than your kitchen, and it continues behind the wall. You should measure it and then, if my suspicion is right, be happy about your kitchen being bigger than you thought
If the pipe would fit into a wall, it wouldn’t be outside the walls in the first place. just look at the bend in the right corner, the wall had to be gigantic! which of course would be a big wast of space.
As a child, I used to search our house for hidden rooms in the walls, thats why I still notice such things. Also, I had to find out if my sisters had bigger rooms than me
Here is why I think you are arriving at the wrong conclusion: over summer break one year my dorm installed a sprinkler system, but since the building was pretty much one solid concrete pour they couldn’t put it through the ceilings and walls without it taking way too long and costing a lot of money. So instead they ran the pipes through our rooms. What seemed obvious to me was that the pipe wouldn’t *bend*. It would meet a vertical pipe at a right angle, like so: |-. That pipe was probably already in the wall, and the one running through the apartment was likely added at a later date as a retrofit/upgrade/whatever.
I’m sure your house had PLENTY of hidden rooms, Stevie. And maybe you’re right. After putting that much effort into accurately portraying her apartment, Wertz drew that back wall wonky AND forgot the pipe running through her bedroom. Uh huh.

Hey Julia - glad to see Jack is drawn above
I have no questions, just glad to see a new post and damn, your apartment is so cool! Stay warm! Fools like me in California have no grasp of snow.

Makes sense, best of luck! I look forward to reading the books in the future. I totally dig the apartment sketch too.
December 19th, 2009 at 7:41 pm
Hey, your apartment is cooler than mine.
December 19th, 2009 at 7:44 pm
I just noticed…there’s like no door to your bathroom.
December 19th, 2009 at 8:02 pm
Awesome apartment..reminds me of Habbo Hotel from many years ago.
December 19th, 2009 at 10:43 pm
i noticed that too but who needs a bathroom door anyways, since you obviously just go in from the front. heh.
plus, as a person who has only half jokingly talked about tour called ‘urination across the nation’, i really can’t open my fucking mouth.
besides, that drawing is crazy detailed and awesome.
anyways, (yay paragraph starters look at me go) good luck with all your upcoming stuff and yes, new years IS always the worst, what the hell is that?
December 19th, 2009 at 11:00 pm
Why does a pipe run through two rooms along the ceiling?
…If it is a pipe. I shouldn’t assume. Maybe it’s a tube like at the bank only for beer cans.
Anyhow… I’ll miss getting to read free comics but I’m glad you have evolved beyond the need for your website. That is a wonderful thing.

The picture of your apartment would make a great Where’s Waldo setting.
After staring at it for a while, I decided Waldo is in the oven.
December 20th, 2009 at 12:11 am
I might be drunk, but your awesome. In the morning I’ll be sober, but you’ll still be awesome. (oh my, but quotes…)
December 20th, 2009 at 1:07 am
She’s back. Three cheers for Wertz -
Rrah! Rrah! Rrah!

Understandable. I’d be kinda creeped out by random parts of the internet knowing all sorts of personal bits about my life.
December 20th, 2009 at 2:07 am
Hi Julia,
Is Drinking at the Movies going to be available directly from you or only from the publishers/Atomic Books?
And is the Fart Party Volume 1 ever going to be re-printed?
Thanks

ps more pics of Jack pls
December 20th, 2009 at 3:19 am
I got an itch on my foot but I scratched it and now I’m fine.
…
Yes, I’m drunk. What of it!

Hey, I personally like New Year’s (cos I’ve just been alone, drinking wine with my best friend the last few).
Anyway, good to hear you’re not dead or anything and I’m looking forward to the odd comic being posted again.
December 20th, 2009 at 10:15 am
That’s great. Thanks for the update Julia.

December 20th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Love, love, love, love the apartment drawing. And the water coloring.
December 20th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Have you considered releasing some books in ebook form? Living halfway around the world shipping costs are a bit prohibitive.
December 20th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
I love the apt drawing too, and remember the pipe being one of the first things you said about it’s ‘features’.
And Hey, are your breasts getting bigger ?
And can you open those kitchen cabinets behind the pipe ?
December 21st, 2009 at 6:20 am
Glad to hear you’re carrying on. It sucks that the online comic won’t be a regular thing anymore; on the other hand, this may force my broke, stingy ass to actually buy your books.
Keep up the good work, you rock.
December 21st, 2009 at 10:39 am
Actually, your hiatus did get me off my stingy butt and was a direct cause of me buying a book. Jonesing is a good motivator.
Well played, well played indeed.
Also I’m looking forward to your first book being reprinted - I kinda need to buy that one too… must… have… fix….
In any event - congrats and good luck, and I wait with breath abated for future updates.
December 21st, 2009 at 10:54 am
cool apartment!
December 21st, 2009 at 3:23 pm
I think you should try your hand at Architechtural drawing.
December 21st, 2009 at 3:43 pm

I think your apt is bigger than mine. I’m jealous so I’m getting a piano.

December 22nd, 2009 at 1:33 pm
All very well and good, but why isn’t there a door from the bathroom to the apartment proper? Or is it a shared bathroom?
December 24th, 2009 at 9:19 am
Bah… even though you said it wasn’t shared.. the bathroom door in the hall reminded me of my freshman year where my friend and I lived next door to a guy we only referred to as “the Yeti.”

December 27th, 2009 at 5:33 pm
I’ll miss the frequent updates, but it’s good that you’re not putting all of your stuff online for free. You need that money for beer and cat food.
December 30th, 2009 at 7:39 pm
Your studio is a hell of a lot nicer than mine. HUGE! jellus.
January 3rd, 2010 at 3:50 am
Really like the apt. drawing. Reminds me of those Amazing cross-section books I used to pore over for hours as a kid finding all the little details
January 10th, 2010 at 10:01 am
About that pipe… Doesn’t it enter your bedroom? Because if it doesn’t, this will mean your bedroom is less long than your kitchen, and it continues behind the wall. You should measure it and then, if my suspicion is right, be happy about your kitchen being bigger than you thought
January 13th, 2010 at 9:31 am
DAMN that’s a big bed.
January 14th, 2010 at 11:53 pm
Or, you know, maybe the pipe connects to one in the wall, and DOESN’T continue through the bedroom. Because pipes do three-dimensional things.
January 15th, 2010 at 9:21 am
