“We believe that the easiest way to change people’s behaviour for the better is by making it fun to do. We call it The fun theory.”

I’m amazed with the briliant minds behind The Fun Theory .  I admire anyone making attempts to put a smile on people’s faces (but not forcefully like the Joker).

My Neighbor Tete

My fantastique, buddy TJ sent me a link to view an indepentantly produced anime short. The quality is top notch and reminds me the anime fsrom Studio 4°C (Tekkoninkreet and Batman: Gotham Knight ["Have I Got a Story for You" · "Working Through Pain"].  The basis plot is the schoolgirl want to go out with the boy but he rejects her for baseball.  It’s a story I know to well when I use to be a schoolgirl.

TJ also wanted me to show the tiny closet Tete works/lives in.  I thought my room was small.

My friend Jocelyn sent me a link telling me to check out Weakly Ink’d. I got a good chuckle out of Nick Aoki and Chris Kuzma’s comics for this week. Haw haw haw.

Canzine 09

I went to Canzine at the Gladstone Hotel this year with my friend, Adam. The other two times I’ve gone alone so it was a bit of a different experience (following each other around and trying to find each other in the packed building). I always feel totally awkward and guilty at these things. Like I feel like all the sellers are looking at me and I feel bad when I quickly scan the table and proceed to ignore them completely cos I’m not interested or because I don’t buy their stuff.  I was especially picky this time about what sort of zines I was looking for cos I was trying not to blow a ridiculous amount of money this time. I looked for cute and funny ones and those are the ones that I bought. Let me show you.

Ginette Lapalme – I love everything she does. Some of it is really trippy but everything is always awesome.

Myra Phan – The teeniest of zines. The flowery rectangle at the top right is actually a little bound book.
