Because the comics suck, but we read them anyway.

Hello Again: Exposition and Analplay

So like three years ago I was unemployed and I started this blog The Not Funnies where I made fun of comic strips. And it was going pretty well for a few weeks and I was enjoying myself. But then the whole thing blew up way too fast and I made a ton of money overnight. I got hooked on the fast life (and blow) and spent all my dough just as fast as I made it (do not buy a monster truck at first it seems really cool but it is a WASTE of money plus I don’t even think it was the real Grave Digger). Humbled and alone, I moved out of the Hotel de Crillon and got a job at Dollar General, vowing never again to blog about the funny pages that so ruined my promising young life.

Then last month I got this email:

Hello again



Barbara's Boss, Dr. Sadie Allison
I sent you an email last week (she did not) and hadn't heard back so I just wanted to try again to see if you'd like to receive a copy of Dr. Sadie's newest book, "Tickle My Tush," to review on The Not Funnies. I’ve put together everything about the book into this microsite:



http://ticklemytushbook.com



Please let me know if you'd like a review copy. When you do review the book, please pop me the link as I'd love to share it with Sadie.


Please let me know if you have any questions.



Thanks so much,


Barbara Dunn

Tickle Kitty

SO. MANY. QUESTIONS.

For starters, why would any competent publicist pitch a book review for “Tickle My Tush: Mild-to-Wild Analplay Adventures for Everybooty” to a long-dormant comic strip blog that was never popular to begin with?

Possibilities: 1) Barbara Dunn is a sophisticated spambot (entirely plausible); 2) Barbara’s software scans the web for blogs that use certain words and phrases, like “cornholing” or “Blondie’s boobs”(likely, even); 3) Barbara is a longtime fan of The Not Funnies who wants to see the blog return while expanding its purview to include butt sex, both mild and wild (No).

(Maybe?)

Yes, I told Barbara, I would love to review the book, and please do be in touch! And today I hold in my hands a copy of Dr. Sadie Allison’s latest sexual opus, which I will review on this blog in the coming days.

Does all this add up to more rants about the Lockhorns, Jim Davis, and something called Drabble? Maybe? Why not. From here on out, I blog for Barbara.
