NEW YEAR'S
EVE IS A
RATHER DISPIRITED AFFAIR IN THE
LOOMING SHADOW OF A BUSH
REGIME, BUT OUR PLUCKY
SO JERRY, YOU REALLY LIKED OUR LIMP BIZKIT?
YEAH, ESPECIALLY YOUR 69 SCENE WITH THE KID DOING EMINEM. VERY CATHARTIC.
THANKS FOR ASKING ME OVER, LOIS. I DIDN'T REALLY WANT TO BE IN A BAR TONIGHT,
RING!
I THINK IT BITES THAT YOU CAN'T GO TO YOUR FRIENDS' ANNUAL SWEAT LODGE AND TUPPERWARE PARTY ANY MORE JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A
GUY NOW.
RING!
AHH, IT WOULD BE TOO WEIRD. I MEAN, I DON'T PARTICULARLY WANT TO GET NAKED WITH A BUNCH OF WOMEN. THOUGH I COULD REALLY USE SOME NEW ROCK 'N SERVETM MICROWAVE CONTAINERS.
UH... D'YOU WANNA GET THAT? IT'S THE FOURTH CALL SINCE WE GOT HERE.
RING
NAH. IT'S JUST MO, WANTING ME TO FORGIVE HER SO SHE CAN START THE NEW YEAR OFF WITH
A CLEAR CONSCIENCE.
Click!
FORGIVE HER FOR WHAT?
FRIENDS
MAKE A
354
VALIANT EFFORT.
2001 by Alison Bechdel
LOIS, HI. I GUESS YOU'RE OUT. LISTEN, CALL ME. I, UH... WANT TO APOLOGIZE FOR SAYING 1 COULDN'T BE YOUR FRIEND IF YOU TURNED INTO A MAN,OKAY? So, UH... HAPPY NEW YEAR..
BUT YOU'RE NOT TRANSITIONING!
I KNOW. I JUST FELT LIKE YANKING HER CHAIN. SHE WAS BEING REALLY TRANSPHOBIC AND IT PISSED ME OFF.
GOD, SHE PISSES ME OFF! ACT-
ISN'T IT A TENET OF
ING LIKE I'M BEING OPPRES-FEMINISM THAT GENDER SIVE WHEN SHE'S THE ONE IS CULTURALLY CONBETRAYING EVERY TENET OF STRUCTED? FEMINISM FOR A CHANCE TO GRAB SOME MALE PRIVILEGE!
DEET!
AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE SHIRT I GOT YOU FOR CHRISTMAS?
EXCHANGING IT. IT'S NOT MY, UH...COLOR.
SO YOU'RE LETTING HER THINK IT'S TRUE EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT, TO SEE IF SHE'LL STILL LIKE YOU? ISN'T THAT SORT OF MANIPULATIVE?
I'D MAKE A MEAN BACKSTREET BOY, DON'T YOU THINK?
SO YOU'RE APOLOGIZING TO HER EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE STILL MAD, BE CAUSE YOU WANT HER TO FORGIVE YOU? ISN'T THAT SOMEWHAT DISINGENVOUS?
HERE'S A FETCHING STRIPED ONE.
