Frighteningly True Stories: Volume 8: KidRaper.


Believe it or not, the story is actually true. Back in high school, I overheard someone talking about his new screen name, “Kid Raper,” and I couldn’t stop cracking up. Of course, I the notion of someone idolizing Kid Rock is funny in itself.I also think the poster “I Heart Drug” adds a nice, funny touch.

Great Women Go Greek Go Go Gadget Purple Monkey Dishwasher!


Every year, the Greek system here at Illinois produce some catchy slogan to promote and encourage young, hapless freshmen into joining a fraternity or sorority. This year’s 2005 Fall Rush slogan was “Great Women Go Greek.”

In case you didn’t know, the “Purple Monkey Dishwasher” is a Simpsons’ quote.

Special thanks go out to the Greeks who helped me out on this one!

D.I.K. Rush F.A.Q.


Rumor has it that a certain fraternity (on a national scale) has its pledges raise a puppy and kill it off at initiation. Of course, that’s just a rumor, but for any social group that lives by such secretive rules and conduct (like fraternities and sororities), I wouldn’t count these rumors as false.Furthermore, it still amazes me how such party animals can grow up to be the people who run this country…

Sufjan Stevens — much to my indie music snob excitement — did come to the University of Illinois, but unfortunately, I could not go.I love making fun of myself and the culture I immerse myself in…

The Least Marketable Rubber Wristbands.


You know, after publishing this comic, the number of people wearing those rubber bracelets has dwindled. I’d like to think I played a role in their decline…

Inspired by MichaelMoore.com, CNN, The Village Voice, and Caroline Mitgang.


I was apprehensive, at first, about publishing this comic. I didn’t want to appear too insensitive or trivialize such a horrible tragedy. However, after watching the news — especially the angry remarks from the New Orleans mayor — and reading up on some stuff on the web, I felt compelled to criticize the government’s apparent apathetic reaction.I’m trying to see all of this on an objective level, despite my liberal point-of-views. Yes, this was a tremendous catastrophe that would have happened even if we were prepared and no, Bush had no way of stopping the hurricane; it’s fucking mother nature. Nevertheless, the government’s way of handling the aftermath of Katrina was incredibly idiotic and disgusting. I sympathize with the New Orlean residents’ anger, sadness, and resentment.
