Lovely Spam, Wonderful Spam

As Chris Semple might say, “three things”:

1) This site’s filter catches a lot of spam comments. Over 8,000 so far. Usually they’re stupid, but once in awhile I like them. Three recent good ones:

Thomas Waugh: My husband and I feel the same way. It’s always the little man.

cheap allegra: I hope that I did not hurt you.

avapro: “Catch him,” Poke said serenely, and ripped another piece of tape from the prilosec otc printable coupons.

2) Remember how I’ve mentioned that my housemate Hannah also does comics?  Well, she does, and they’re great, and from time to time, she’ll draw me something, because she’s just that nice.  Here are a few things she’s made for me this year:

hannah comics 2
Lizz: Jonah wasn’t at Shabbat dinner tonight… I wonder where he is.
Athena: Maybe he followed a rabbit down a rabbit hole that led to a combination Whole Foods/Trader Joe’s!

3) We had a pretty great Purim party on Saturday.

    I love everything on this page a lot lot lot.

    Nice work by your friend! I like her characterization of you. As to the above strip…seems to me that just because a person CAN pull an all-nighter, it doesn’t neccessarily mean that they SHOULD. I can remember back at SCSU when I thought it a badge of honor, but seriously…after the first few times, it REALLY loses it’s novelty. That, and as you point out, it does really weird things to some people.

    Great job! We’re still waiting to hear if there will be a formation of a ICC cell out your way!

    I really like this comic. A lot.

  4. Lizz Says:

    SCSU, Southern Connecticut State University? Because nothing that is considered a badge of honor there should be honorable outside of New Haven.

  5. Ross Currier Says:

    I like the way Hannah portrays you in comic form.

  6. Jon Sloan Says:

    @Lizz…close, actually St. Cloud State University, St. Cloud, MN…infamous party school of Minnesota, and home of the 1988 Homecoming Riots that garnered global attention.

  7. Athena Says:

    Lizz: YAY. I like everything on your face.

    Jon: Good! I wanted to stick some of Hannah’s beautiful stuff up here because displaying it on my door just doesn’t provide a big enough audience for such greatness. And you are right: all-nighters COMPLETELY lose novelty after one or two tries. And I don’t know anyone who gets more/better work done that way.

    Ian: Thank you! I’m your pictures of Argentina. It looks like a neat place to spend half a year.

    Dad: Thanks, I like it too. Her lines are so beautiful and clean. She’s like Phoebe; her handwriting looks like a goddamn FONT! It’s crazy.
