How to Disguise Your Symptoms

in

Ah, Drakkar Noir. Liquid Member’s Only jacket. Trans Am in a bottle. The cologne of choice for the Aqua Velva man who wants to “raise his game.”

I remember one time, in high school, a guy told me that the secret to getting girls was to wear a cologne called Tahoe. He said it worked like magic. I remember thinking at the time that the fact that he was a good looking guy with big muscles and a cool car might be magnifying Tahoe’s effectiveness.

How to Recover Gracefully from a Mistake

in

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

in

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

in

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.
