While Winslow’s personality makes it next to impossible for him to engage in romantic relationships, Kurt the Cynic has a more depressing problem. He has no trouble starting relationships, but he has an abysmal track record with maintaining them. It’s not his fault. He just attracts the wrong kinds of women.

So much so, that Ben apparently has a cell phone app chronicling Kurt’s love life.

Kurt’s now ex-girlfriend in this strip is Lumpy Space Princess from the show Adventure Time, created by Pendleton Ward. You can watch it on Cartoon Network. It’s one of my new favorite shows, and my two-year-old son loves it. It’s part of his standard television show repertoire, right up there with Sesame Street and the Wonder Pets.
