My love of Cat and Girl continues unabated: “Value Menu” is one of my favorite comics in a long time.
I have Wikipedia to thank for reminding me of the Achewood strips about Jared the Subway ex-fat guy. (“Well, he doesn’t really make me feel good about food…” is quite the understatement and may become my new all-purpose description of nutrition scolds.) Also, is it bad that my brain automatically thought of “ex-gay” ministries after coming up with “ex-fat” as a descriptor for people who loudly advertise their weight loss? Somehow, I am loving the parallels just a little too much….
But onwards, to breakfast comics. With dinosaurs and pixellated robots and hippies, oh my! (I could’ve sworn I bookmarked more than these, but apparently Google Reader ate them before I got a chance. Oh well.)
Speaking of foods associated with breakfast in some cultures (but associated with just plain old deliciousness in my world), did you know that this Friday, 9 October 2009, is World Egg Day? True! I don’t even care that it’s just a marketing device — I’m happy to celebrate eggs any way.
But maybe I should be celebrating an equally awesome, if much more fictional, and entirely appropriate to today’s webcomics theme: Bean Day, brought to my attention by Daisy Owl in the 30 September and 2 October. Suffice it to say I’m looking forward to the next installment.
