Fishing: Fart and Parcel








The "expression" in the second pannel of this cartoon was very much inspired by Chuck Jones' intreptation of Dr Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas. Thats about all I have to say for this one. Bye!

An Elephant Never Gets Ass


When I saw "Horton Hatches the Egg." I always felt bad for poor Horton and I could never understand why a freaking elephant would care about an egg. Horton is just falling into some baby momma drama with this mess. Regardless, the cartoon adaptation of the Dr. Seuss book was a classic. Good ol' Bob Clampet sure knew how to make 'em.

Happy Birthday + The "Sketch Book" II


So, I get "paid" pretty much no matter what I put in the UDK (University Daily Kansan, official school newspaper of the University of Kansas). Crap on a paper? Paid! Draw with my feet? Paid! Now, I'm using the word "paid" very loosely. In fact there is a good chance that I could find the same amount of money lying around somewhere in the time it takes to do a cartoon. But it's not about money...

-----------------------Sketch Book II---------------------------

Now, Zelda is one of those kinda games you never grow out of. And fans of Zelda were promised a new game quite a while ago. But if your interested in console gaming, the "new" Zelda game is supposed have special game play if you play it on the next Nintendo counsole, code named Revolution. So be on the look out for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess due out sometime later than this date.

What the hell is going on with the MegaMan Games? Its pretty basic, run and shoot things and jump sometimes. MegaMan X series? Okay, fine add some goodies and new gameplay but the basics are intact. I don't want to play any of these complicated "turn-based" strategy games like MegaMan BN or insanely-hard-to-the-point-I-break-something games like MegaMan Zero, or some game that has more letters of the alphabet in it than the real alphabet like MegaMan ZX, what happened to you MegaMan? What happened?

"Valentines Day" or "Insert better title here"


Ah, Valentines day... That magical day that, if you share with someone else, obligates you to do something "nice" for the other. Some 100 million valentines day cards will be given out this year, and some 50 million will be tossed in the trash. Women tend to feel the need to keep the card, longer than the 37 seconds it takes to read it. Men, seem to not feel such an urge. Its not that a card is not appreciated, no that's not it at all. Its that we have no real place to put it. No box of nick-knacks or movie stubs or trinkets. And it's just kinda...some paper...with some words on it.
Nice words that make you feel nice, but...still paper with words on it. So instead of giving your special someone that straight from the oven, pre-made card. Take the day to just enjoy each others company, like any other day. There is too much pressure put upon valentines day and sometimes that can make what was supposed to be a special day, disastrous. And really, while we men appreciate the gesture of cards and gifts, what we really want for valentines day is you....I'm sorry, I mean to FUCK you...sorry.

-Love, Doug

XOXOXOX :)

Relationship Woes VIII


Well, I don't think there is a male out there who doesn't cringe for just a moment if a significant other requests to use your porn-box, eh...I mean computer. You instantly try to think back while you stammer to answer the dreaded question, "can I use your computer real quick?" You think, "what sites did I visit in the last few days? Will she notice? Is she going to find my goodies?" My advice, just play it cool or at least try to flip the script on her and somehow find a way to make her feel bad...

Sick Day


This is pretty much based on a real experience I had. Except I wasn't exactly sick, and there really wasn't a "thermometer" per-say... But there was plenty of mercury, well Freddy Mercury and...wait...I've...I've said to much.

Relationship Woes VII


Over the holidays I was in line at Best Buy. This woman was in front of me and had a huge Oprah DVD collection in her hand, you could hardly hold it with two hands. Her husband came up a few minutes later to join her in line. He asked "what do you have there honey?" She replied "it's this DVD set I really wanted..." The husband continues with "oh, how..how much is that?" She, hesitantly says, "Oh, its $79.99.." The husband is visibly taken-a-back by this, but he keeps his composure. Now maybe $80 bucks isn't as unreasonable as it seems, I mean maybe there were 8 or 9 disks in that thing, but Oprah? For 80 bucks?! I dunno....
