How to Recover Gracefully from a Mistake

I tend to be more forgiving of other people’s mistakes than I am of my own. I like to think that this is because I’m a fundamentally kind person, but I must admit that it could be seen as more than a little condescending. “I expect these mistakes of the rest of you, but I should be better than that.”

Trust me to find a way to forgive people and feel guilty about it.

How to Deal With Someone Who Doesn't Like You

People often asked me what the company in my comic did. I never said. That’s deliberate, and probably has something to do with the fact that I spent a few years working for a company where I could not really explain what we did. It was something to do with government and environmental impact statements. My coworkers tried to explain it to me many times, but my eyes would glaze over before they finished their first sentence. For all I know we might have been a front for the Yakuza.

How to share a Horrifying Experience

I did once yell “Pants baby, pants!” in my sleep. I have no idea what I was dreaming about … other than pants.

The dead bug in my toothbrush thing happened too. Physically, emotionally, psychiatrically, I was not prepared for the grim, meat-hook realities of living in Florida. I found myself thinking, At least it was a small bug in my toothbrush. If it had been one of those palmetto bugs (a charming euphemism for what is actually a cockroach the size of your thumb) I might never have brushed my teeth again.

How to Pick a New Razor

This comic actually got quite a bit of traction when it came out. So much, in fact, that I was asked by the manufacturers to review two razors. One by King of Shaves, and one called The Goodfella.

The one by King of Shaves was probably the best disposable I ever used, but looked disturbingly like a vegetable peeler

I still have The Goodfella, and use to clean up edges on occasion. As I wrote at the time, it’s metal with no moving parts. There’s no reason it won’t still work in 200 years.

For my daily shaving these days I use a Panasonic electric. It is by far the best electric razor I’ve found. I use it on my face and my head, and shaves as close as a blade. Just sayin’.
