It Is A Betrayal Of The Worst Kind

by Tiger Lilly
Duct Tape. It has failed me. Horrendously.

I have an old drawing book (not quite full of drawings) that was falling apart from use. I relied on duct tape to at least keep the spine partially intact (I figured, ‘Duct Tape. Good for everything. Holds the universe together’). But, lo and behold, just a few minutes ago, while unleashing my inner snobby artist, I heard a sort of rip-pop noise, and the spine of my book was rent in twain. Alas, oh woe is me!!!!

Anyway, just thought I’d let you in on that little snippet of my life. Ciao for now.

PS: I baked cookies!!!

  1. …thanks, Dad.

    Chocolate chip cookies! The traitorous duct tape had nothing to do with it. *angry glare at the duct tape sitting in the corner*

  2. Just more material for the cartoons! Speaking of which, send me an autographed one so I can say I knew you when!

  3. Next time use more duct tape. You literally cannot use enough.

    And in the unlikely situation you do use too much, use WD-40 and it’ll neutralize the duct tape.

    Those two are capable of solving any problem. Broken books. Stuck hinges. Cancer. Nuclear war…..all can be addressed with either duct tape or WD-40

    There’s the problem right. Pride goeth before a fall. Or a rip in this case.

    Next time leave that snobby artist leashed and use your humble artist.

  5. KD~ I am not completely incompetent. Sort of like swords: pointy end goes into other guy. 😉

    Kevin~ How exactly is the WD-40 going to keep my sketch book from falling apart?
