Youth Is Wasted on the Young

dude she looks like shes 16, of course she would think winnipeg sucks.
Bah! I refuse to defer to her naivety! Love it or leave it! (throws cane at wall, shakes fist)
Anytime someone complains about Winnipeg...
…(like here) I want to help them out. Help them out by escorting them to the edge of town. These folks have every right to complain, but if you’re doing nothing to change your situation, I can’t sympathize with their plight.
Last night, I was dick-deep in the doldrums. Y’know what I did? I went outside. I attended a Big Fun show at the Exchange Community Church. It was technically an after-party, so it had that sort of vibe. Raps were rapped, and people brought their own alcohol (shhhh…don’t tell anyone). People enjoyed themselves until 4 a.m. In the dead of winter – imagine that!
So yeah, there’s things to do in this city. Allthefuckingtime. You don’t have to look very hard. Stop yer whining. Please.
Responses!

Banana is the only flavour I’ll drink.
I took one sip of that several years ago, and I had an immediate sensation of “fuck no” once it hit my tongue. To each his/her own! :)
Being in the Slurpee capitol...whats your favorite flavor?
For the uninitiated, my city rules the world as far as Slurpee® consumption goes (look under “Slurpee® Beverages” in the “Fun Facts” section).
12 years in a row!
Anyway, I tend to mix flavors, but as far as individual flavors go, lime-strawberry is the shit, f’real. As a Slurpee® or Big Gulp®, it’s crack-like to me. I overdid it this summer with that stuff.
More Askeses?
Hey! I got two questions, both of them great.
Hit me off with more questions.
Y’know…if you’ve got nothing better to do.
Or if you’re bored, which you shouldn’t be.
What inspired your username enmagnifico, or the longer version of that?
I’ve been using “El Negro Magnifico” since I joined gigposters.com back in September of 2001. Actually, it was originally El Negro Fantastico, but I decided that “Magnifico” had a better ring to it. My inspiration was asking myself, what would I be called if I entered the wrestling ring as a luchador? Since then, I’ve been using that monicker on several different sites in various ways. I’ve kinda branded myself, in a way – El Negro Magnifico is black, Canadian, he draws, and he loves fat chicks. And he looks like this all the time.
You should post your drawings? (that is a statement turned into a question)
I see what you did there.
And yes, I should! I have no excuses. The name of my Tumblr blog mocks me constantly.

An archive of past…
This should be very interesting. I met Marcos several years ago at Red River College when I was a student. He had very nice things to say about my sketchbook. Your Dreams My Nightmares is among my favorite creativity-related shows, so I do recommend giving it a listen.

I was invited to join my pals Dustin Harbin and Aaron Costain to chat with Robin McConnell on the Inkstuds Podcast about our favourite comics of 2011.
I haven’t heard this yet, but I have no doubt that this will be a terrific round table discussion. Download and enjoy!
