Hey guys, here’s a tip: When you’re out in public, it’s probably not a good idea to monologue about the kinds of women you find unattractive, especially when you’re grouping women into broad ethnic or national categories. It makes you sound like an ass. And if I hear about it, I’ll probably make a comic out of it.
Yes, today’s strip is based on actual words spoken by an actual human being. My wife told me all about it. The guy in question (who shall remain nameless, because I don’t know his name) was talking about how he thought Eastern European women were attractive, but not Latinas. And he actually used a disgusted “Ugh!” to describe Salma Hayek. I don’t know, folks. I just report, and then draw, the news. I don’t pretend to understand it.
