Our Story Begins

NOTE:

A number of people have told me they think this story to be sexist.  I know no bigger group of relationship list-makers, however, than my women friends.  If the notion of buying people in cans is seen as objectification, I believe ANY kind of list making is objectification - and we all objectify; if we didn't, there would be no children.  Attraction happens before we get to know someone; we get to know them because we first find them attractive.  

To my mind the most important part of the story is beautiful Wendy throwing herself at Frank, and Frank, the idiot, not only opting instead for a canned girl, but for one on the sale rack.

WORTHLESS

A cartoon that I started some years ago and would love to finish one of these days.  Both this and "Canned Girls" have their complete stories written; just need time to finish them both.  "Worthless" needs a complete re-draw I think, but this should give an idea of what I intend.  I hope you enjoy it.

When Trump started running for office, I saw him as a snotty little girl, like a girl from 5th grade whom I was reluctant friends with, who was loud and tormented everyone with her vanity and constant need for approval, except now she had a cell phone and could really make trouble.  The great Mike Peters encouraged me to make enough of these to make it a daily or weekly feature, but unfortunately I had other, pressing projects to complete.  I wrote several episodes, but this was the only complete story I finished.
