Uncorrected Proofs #11: In Which I Complicate Things


Natalie was talking with me about how she was trying to keep her stress to a minimum, but I was clearly not helping in that department. I interjected with "I'm a stress vending machine." She immediately requested a cartoon of this. Later, I showed her the pencil sketch for this comic and she had no recollection of the conversation whatsoever.

I'll try to remember to post the original thumbnail design that I brainstormed. It's pretty much the same, but Natalie's expression is hilarious.

Spend your dollars wisely!

This is awesome in so many ways.

Well, probably not for Natalie XD

The best gags sort of come up in conversation, I suppose. It's not awesome for Nat, but at least she can find humor in it :)

I'm also crazy about the rye chips, but it'd be oxymoronic if Stress Mix had the good stuff. The company slogan is: "This ain't Gardetto's! What did you expect?"

The trick is to just buy the "sex" and the "i'll make dinner", clearly.

You'd think that would solve everything, but as it turns out, I'm also one of those vending machines where you punch the root beer button and get Sprite.

Mike said he wanted to draw a vending machine of me, but every slot would just have dried up poop. He also said if you pick the "sex" from yours, it can be the worst one.

Just passing on info.

I personally preferred his facebook comment of "You should have some Jalepeno Cheddar Cheetos in that thing, then maybe you wouldn't suck so bad."
