Used Furniture
Sooooo…I made an Action Athena fan page on facebook.
Actually, first, I made a group. And I invited all of my facebook friends. But then one of my mom’s friends emailed me to inform me that a page is actually the way to go. So I deleted the group, made a page instead, and re-invited all of my facebook friends. Sorry, guys. As if advertising one’s webcomic on facebook isn’t lame enough as it is, right?
Heh. For the most part, slathering my comics across the internet is pretty darn cool. But there are inevitably those dark moments when I’m afraid I’m this kid.
Somebody else who recently shared a bit of herself with the internet is my friend and housemate Hannah, illustrated above. Last Monday she was featured as CollegeHumor’s Cute College Girl of the Day. As I have previously mentioned, Hannah is awesome. She is also now the proud owner of a CollegeHumor T-shirt.

Is that kid real???
Also, how did Hannah get on Collegehumor?? That’s just excellent!!!!!!
…additionally, is that the “$1.50″ chair?

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I laughed out loud reading this!!! Let it serve as a cautionary tale to anyone sleeping on second-hand furniture… I want to print this out and post it places in the Goodwill store. I love how shocked/serious I am here.

Where are your goddamned brains?!

Goldfeather, as far as I know, that kid is 100% for real and for serious. And Hannah got on CollegeHumor by just filling out the questionnaire and sending in a few photos, I think. And YES, it is absolutely the “$1.50″ Chris-is-a-sneaky-bastard blue chair from Salvation Army.
Hannah: Hooray! I’m glad you like it. Yeah, this comic should serve as a warning poster in places where dirty hippies and cokeheads dwell. Er, I mean, I guess I could just put it up around campus. Er, I mean…
WHERE ARE YOUR GODDAMNED BRAINS?!?!?!?!

Hannah, your answer to the hook-up question on College Humor is fan-tastic.

Oh, and a little epilogue about that mattress:
Matt, who took Athena’s room in the apartment when she moved back to Hampshire, slept on that stained and saggy mattress for the next nine months. It now sits in the basement, waiting for its second (third? fourth?) -wind caretaker.

But Hannah’s mattress totally had the opportunity to air out on the street! You have to shove your face in the cushions or whatever to make sure you’re not allergic to anything going on in there, but after that, you’re golden.

Hannah and Ian, you two should internet-talk about Argentina sometime. And politics and revolutions and all that other shit.
And Ian, I think that mattress is ready to die. However, my mom wants it known that she bleached it *thoroughly* before it drove to St Paul.
Tabitha: I approve of your thriftiness–and your sense of adventure.
