HI, ANN.
IS RAFFI
READY?
THEY'RE UP ON BILLY'S PLAYSTATION. THEY WON'T HEAR YOU. YOU'LL HAVE TO GO PRY THE CONTROLS OUT OF HIS HANDS.
MEANWHILE, 'DOWNTOWN...
MY MOM HAD SOMETHING LIKE THIS ONCE AND IT WAS BENIGN. BESIDES, ONLY ONE IN TWELVE LUMPS IS CANCER.
ONE IN TWELVE? THAT'S SUPPOSED TO REASSURE ME?
PEST BUDA Eafe
HEY, I'M THE ONE GEFTING THE BIOPSY. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO REASSURE ME.
I WOULD, IF YOU HAD THE SENSE TO BE FREAKING OUT.
WORST CASE, IT'S CANCER. AND IF IT IS, I'LL DEAL WITH IT.. PEOPLE DO THAT EVERY DAY.
SO WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY? HAVE PHONE SEX WITH FIONA, THE TATTOOED LIBRARIAN?
SYDNEY, I THINK WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT HOW YOU'RE FEELING.
WHAT WAS SHE WEARING? A THONG MADE
FROM RECYCLED CARD CATALOG ENTRIES?
PEST
BUDA
©2002 BY ALISON BECHDEL
I DIDN'T TALK TO FIONATODAY!
I MET WITH MY CONTACT AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARY-WHERE THERE ARE NO JOBS, BY THE WAY. AND THEN I WENT TO THAT ANTIWAR DEMO.
RIGHT ON, SISTER! DOWN WITH THE PATRIARCHAL WAR MACHINE!
WHAT'S YOUR POINT?
MY POINT IS, WHY NOT GET RID OF SADDAM? IRAQUIS WANT DEMOCRACY. INTERVENTION COULD HELP LIBERALIZE THE WHOLE ARAB WORLD.
YEAH. I ALWAYS FIND THAT INVADING A COUNTRY WITH OUT IMMEDIATE PROVOCATION SETS ANKE DEM OCRATIC PRECEDENT.
COME ON! VIOLENCE DOESN'T SOLVE THINGS! IT'S BESTIAL, AN OBSOLETE PARADIGM, A TREATABLE SIDE-EFFECT OF TESTOSTERONE!
OKAY, A.) THERE IS SUCH A THING AS A JUST WAR. AND B.) PEOPLE ARE VIOLENT. IF MEN DIDN'T GO TO WAR, WOMEN WOULD HAVE TO INVENT IT!
BACK IN SUBURBIA...
AN' THEN AFTER YOU. HAVE SEX WITH THE HO, YOU CAN KILL HER.
WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THAT?
DUH! THEN YOU CAN TAKE YOUR MONEY BACK.
