There's Something Funny About This...



This panel represents a moment in my life when I figured out that there was subtext to things. The image now seems obviously cribbed from some porn mag with the addition of a stupid costume and an ugly monster guy, but at the time I was sure that there was something I was not quite getting, and it was IMPORTANT.

I remain excellent at not quite getting things.

that is awesome. I found a few of my childhood favorite books in a book store a few years ago, and could not believe how gender stereotyped they were. I was appalled.

There are a few books I read in high school that, upon reflection, I am sure I didn't get. Tar Baby comes to mind.
