A Couple Complaints

A Couple Complaints
It used to be that I might see a hand-holding couple perhaps once a week. But in the last month or so I've been seeing four or five of them every day. I've seen three already today.

When I was in a hand-holding couple, my girlfriend and I would curl up to watch the Simpsons every Sunday night. But that was before they hired those new writers and lost their edge. The Simpsons might have been cancelled in 2008 if FOX were honest. I wanted to use my writing in my own cartoons. My artwork makes the best match for my humour. I'm sure no one would have missed the Simpsons.

But these young couples sat and watched show after show whose only laughs came from my life-work, then they took the show's side when its so-called writers patted themselves on the back for having women, such as when Homer called attention to all the 'childless weirdos'.

Once again, some people do the work in this business and others pat themselves on the back for having sex. But if they think they're going to shame me for being single, I'm sure I have a fan or two out there among the women who are happy that I'm single.
