Chapter 17 | Page 2b: The Ol’ Battle Ax

The #GuigarChristmasCountdown Rolls On

Every day until Christmas, I’m releasing a brand-new holiday single-panel gag — and this year’s batch has already included:

  • Overworked elves

  • Malfunctioning snowmen

  • Questionable reindeer behavior

  • And Santas who are absolutely phoning it in

Next week’s cartoons keep the absurdity rolling. If you’re counting down to Christmas with me… buckle up. We’re not even halfway to the weirdest ones. Catch them on BlueskyPatreon chat, or the Evil Inc Subreddit.

Courting Disaster: July 27, 2007

Courting Disaster


Courting Disaster, my weekly comic about sex, love, and relationships updates every Friday. You’ll laugh your pants off.

This week’s question:

Q: I’ve just graduated college. I’ve dated my high-school sweetheart for six years. We broke up briefly last spring, and then reunited. The ensuing months have been great. While I’m still usually disinterested in sex with him, I love him. Our course has been altered by a brilliant woman who has fallen in love with me. This woman and I have a lot in common. We think alike; we are good companions. We have made love. At first, I did it mainly because I was curious. But, the third time, I wanted to do it because I knew it would be good. Still, while I know I love her as a friend, I fear I do not love her romantically. I haven’t been completely honest with either of them, though I have tried. What should I do?

Go on over and offer some advice.
