I don’t know who in our group was the first to start refering to birthdays as “Vagina Hat Anniversary Days”, but I want to thank them. The term, which gives such an unshakable image, would be said something like “Just think, 30 years ago, you were wearing a vagina hat.”
It seems only natural to bring [...]
Or at least, that’s what MC Lars says.
I don’t know what he’s talking about. I can get Hyphy from the corner store downstairs.
Sunday night (the 22nd) was a big nerd night here in San Francisco. MC Frontalot, the godfather of nerdcore took the stage at Cafe Du Nord with Optimus Rhyme and MC Lars.
I headed over to the show straight from the Alternative Press Expo (nerd cred!) and saw the already big line an hour before the [...]
Back from a long weekend at APE. I had a good time this year, meeting new cartoonists and trading comics. Hell, I even made a profit (and so did some of the other cartoonists in our group too). But the main reason we table together at APE is to promote our chapter of the Cartoonist [...]
Today was the first day of APE. The San Francisco Cartoonist Conspiracy had a couple tables again this year with new and old comics from Meredith, Kraig, Jeff-Jeff, and myself.
In preparation for the event, several cartoonists partook in a 12 hour comic jam last sunday at Mission Creek Cafe. Some folks took the chance to [...]
Weng Weng is a dwarf filipino action star. He starred in a couple of James Bond type knock offs and at 2 foot 9 inches tall was recorded by Guinness as the shortest actor ever to play a lead role.
Of course he’s the perfect candidate for a nerd rap song.
The lyrics are pretty witty, if [...]
My friends Irina and Eddie recently got to visit the original K.I.T.T. from the Knight Rider tv series. Even getting to sit Michael’s seat… Transference of David Hasselhoff’s butt heat… weird.
Anyways, the car is for sale now.
You should check out Eddie’s awesome flickr set with tons of close-ups of the fully functional dashboard HERE
Here is something that I had never seen before, it’s a mexican style ramen noodle called Enchilosa.
On the left is a shrimp flavor and on the right is lime. Both are spicy and have corn chunks in them, but are otherwise very traditional “cheap” ramen soups. I think they were $.60 each. The shrimp one [...]
I love the History Channel, they have so much fascinating stuff on there it’s ridiculous. Last week I was watching an episode of Modern Marvels that was about the history of paint.
It focused heavily on many of the bad chemicals that have been used in paint (such as lead), and how striving to replace the [...]
The Alternative Press Expo is this coming weekend (April 21st and 22nd) in San Francisco.
As usual, the SF Cartoonist Conspiracy will be vending, but this year we will have two tables. Booths #254 and #255 will be conspirator run, check the floor plan here.
In preparation, some bay area cartoonists will be doing a 12 hour [...]
