“Dear Kid Who Called My Three Year Old’s Hair ‘Big’ and Pointed and Laughed, While His Mother Looked On and Smiled,” by Samantha Rodman

I understand that you’re only four, but I am going to take this opportunity to educate you about hair discrimination, as your parents apparently have not done. It’s not their fault they are unintelligent and ill-mannered. Your mother has straight, shiny, Pantene ad hair, and I bet your dad does too. Sadly, to the world at large, their beautiful, movie-star-like hair completely obscures their callous, empty souls and lack of social graces.

“Disneyland Trip Report by Officer D. Vargas (10/14),” by Todd Sullivan

Jul 15th, 2015 | By

On October 16, 2014, at approximately 0845 hrs, my children: Michael and Chloe Vargas, caucasian juveniles; and wife: Luisa Marquez-Vargas, caucasian female, age withheld, arrived at the Disneyland Theme Park in Anaheim, CA. Upon entering the park, I diverted from our lane of travel to enter the Jolly Holiday Refreshment Corner with the objective of obtaining a bottle of water. I secured the water bottle in exchange for six dollars. I stated to the purveyor that six dollars seemed “a small price to pay for a basic human necessity.” The purveyor did not appear to detect the playful satirical tone of my comment.

I met Mary Gaitskill once, and only once, which stands to be one of the most memorable and embarrassing evenings of my life.



Winslow 2.0

Jul 10th, 2015 | By

A month ago I said that Winslow’s attempts to improve the strip had spawned a number of related ideas, and this is the start of the second one. Prepare to have your minds blown and your opinions of Ben & Winslow to plummet. Muahahahahaha!
