15 hours ago: “I can’t describe what it’s like to see tiny ppl enjoy this type of music. Do they know what any of… https://instagram.com/p/6hvltOuqTg/”

Nah, it’s just their young little nerves getting accustomed to bad radio.

15 hours ago: “I forgot that I love Bonnie Raitt and im sorry and I will never forget it again #HaveAHeart”

You monster!

11 hours ago: “”What did they say? What did she say? What?” THIS IS THE MAJORITY OF FAMILY CONVO WHY CANT ANYONE HEAR ANYTHING?”

I’m guess, bad car acoustics.

10 hours ago: “Not to have perfect musical preferences but my favorite song is “The Diarrhea Song” by Everyone”

We ALL wrote that songs? I haven’t been getting any royalties.

7 hours ago: “A pantry is a simply good but also eternally wonderful thing to have”

Well, unless it’s empty. Which is just depressing.

7 hours ago: “Sometimes I feel like the oldest twisted tree crone&sometimes I feel like the freshest woman ever who is so fresh that she is almost a fruit”

You need a Nutribullet. Those things make great juice.

7 hours ago: “My mom just sang the lines “PPL can be so cold. Theyll hurt u&desert u, they’ll take yr soul if u let them”to a 3yr old.NUCLEAR JAMES TAYLOR”

Jenny is on Twitter a lot.

7 hours ago: “WHY DONT ALL OF MY FRIENDS FEEL THIS WAY ABOUT ME https://instagram.com/p/6ioMEDuqWM/”

You mean, like that little girl, force people to turn their heads and say your name?

4 hours ago: “I HAVE ENCOUNTERED SO MANY WEAK & IGNORANT MEN IN AIRPORTS”

Well, at least we’re all not yelling on twitter.

4 hours ago: “When the man wouldnt share the outlet w me BC his phone wasnt FULLY charged I wanted 2 yell U R NOT KIND OR BRAVE&THEREFORE NOT VIABLE 4 SEX”

Look, you weren’t going to join the mile high club with him for an outlet, y’know, unless he looked like Brad Pitt or something.

3 hours ago: “Thank goodness the lady next 2 me on plane ate ALL OF THE WORLDS GARLIC bc I couldnt remember if I could panic-gag anymore but YUH HUH I CAN”

Yeah, I’ll miss garlic.

1 hour ago: “Is it narcissism to say that I often am sure that I am the world’s biggest fool”

If it’s like your 50th tweet of the day, yes.

Okay, let’s rate Jenny’s many tweets. I give her an 8 for Style, a 9 for Insanity and a 10 for Mustness. That’s an overall score of 9. Follow Jenny.

Webcomic Review: Cancer Owl

by tonyd on August 17, 2015 at 1:06 am

Webcomic: Cancer Owl

Creator: Matthew Paul Mewhorter

Format: Color, multi-panel strips

Updates: Twice a monthish?

Genre: Slice of life

Themes: Coping, family, friends

Characters: Cancer Owl, Mrs. Cancer Owl, Daughter of Cancer Owl, various supporting animals

Archive: Begins June 29, 2015

I gotta be honest and say when I first clicked the link, I had to click away. It was a little too much. I’ve had several relatives die of cancer. This is a real slice of life comic in every sense of the word. It’s raw and that rawness scared me. But I composed myself and came back, because I think this is the kind of comic that should be lauded. Something that’s hard to read for the subject matter, not the execution.

Matthew did this webcomic as a way to cope with his illness. He’s a therapist as well as a cartoonist and I hope he continues with more of these fascinating strips. His take on the people around him dealing with his illness is not to be missed. And while some may have my initial reaction, you should soldier through like I did. Because the comics, in the end, are a form a healing and they will make you laugh despite yourself.

This is as real as it gets and if the world of comics doesn’t give him some kind of award for this genuine, heart-felt effort (and I expect they won’t) shame on them. This is why critics and reviewers and awards people need to seek out new talent and not just sit around waiting for fans to tell them what’s good. This is a webcomic that needs to be read. So shut up already and read his short library. I give it my high possible recommendation.
