You forgot: “drink absinthe”
Hugh… thanks.
Contemporary update: switch “Berlin” for “Paris” and “blog posts” for “novel”, and remove “roll in the hay” unless you speak a bit of German.
Haha!
*sigh*
…
That made me laugh out loud =) Being young & not really interested in all the marketing stuff you write about, I just enjoy your cartoons and appreciate your humour. I get the deep meaning behind this cartoon (I think), but I enjoy the shallow one a lot more
Your drawing style is also really cool.
Paris, novels, poor, forgotten… I can relate to that.
Hay? Have you been to Paris recently?
Ooh… you mean: metaphorically?
Nope: too poor & forgotten, and too much time is spend being desperate about writing novels.
You just have to be able to live by American clichés…
