Cliches, hot tub parties and puberty: a post in pictures

March 22, 2015

Well hi there! I was rummaging around my stack of drawings the other day and found a few cartoons that, for whatever reason, haven’t been posted. So I thought it would be nice to do an all-cartoon post today. The cartoon above was originally a crappy little drawing I did before I got more serious about […]

Which is to say you have none at all. Once that chemical gets […]
