#11: The Many Faces of Boxtop

Boxtop on April 18, 2009

Finally got this done. I did the speech bubbles (and the backgrounds, too) in Photoshop this time. Yay for Photoshop filter abuse!

I also tried doing the “fountain of tears” thing, but it looks more like I'm shooting lasers from my eyes or something.

To explain this comic: I have pretty bad mood swings (among other faults); I can go from being happy-go-lucky without a care in the world, into a total batshit sociopathic rage, and then to curling up into the fetal position and babbling about what could be. All in the span of a DAY, or sometimes maybe an hour. I'm probably exaggerating here as well, but it happens often enough that I notice it.

I suppose the lack of total control over my emotions makes it difficult for people to be around me. Sometimes I get angry at things and say shit I'll regret later, just because I'm pissed off (this happens mostly on the Internet; I'm too much of a pansy to say what I think in real life).

Anyway, the funny will return soon.
