also anyone wanna buy a desk? or weights? or an enormous box of random comics? or my stress? #
anyone want to temporarily buy all of these boxes? must be picked up and then later dropped off to my new house. #
Listen, I know Ford's doing ok now, but maybe if they went bankrupt I wouldn't have to listen to that "drive-by" song ever again #
If the sky actually falls I really hope that adele song is not the last thing I hear #
can't trust anyone cause you're untrustable #
NYC: I can’t make it out tonight to see @JAdomian and a great lineup @PictureThisShow at @creekandcave but YOU should: http://t.co/55K0vvvb #
BOARDWALK EMPIRE has been really great so far this season. even if every episode basically has the same ending. #
Listen if you guys haven't seen what @ChuckBB and @LoganFaerber can do together, you're really in for some magic next week. #

US airlines are really just across the board the worst airlines. http://t.co/PQ9Shfim #
what percentage of emails get answered these days? less than half? feel like we've devolved as a society into careless, disrespectful blobs. #
ordered postcards from @NextDayFlyers on wednesday. gave them 9 bucks. got the box today. http://t.co/knEBi4E0 #
this kitten is not amused by calling her "fluffy lady" to the tune of gangnam style. #
.@franklyteran just called me the @Bourdain of comics and i told him that clearly bourdain is the bourdain of comics. #
My first formal, official public "news" conversation about @offsetcomics should appear next week before NYCC. #
if you do a google image search for @jasonaaron it is about 50/50 topless brooding men #
i can't close any windows lest apple's heartfelt tribute to steve jobs play again when i open a new one. #
i want A WRETCHED VIRILE LORE more than almost anything beyond the ability to move into my new house http://t.co/EkElgcXw via @franklyteran #
i never post "honest trailers" but the one for prometheus is really funny http://t.co/NvYIyOUB #
If I didn't have NYCC next week I would immediately change my profile picture to this. https://t.co/MSBdB04a #
if every person in comics who added me to a mailing list without asking permission gave me $10 i could buy you all dinner tonight. #
MYSTERIOUS @OFFSETCOMICS BUSINESS: “@LoganFaerber: I'm loving this fire. @IvanBrandon @chuckbb http://t.co/SMVrsXPd #
My basement is like a timecapsule I accidentally buried. Found in a shoebox: a mouse trap, wood glue, @Chef_Aaron's business card. #
Whatever use I was supposed to make of @Chef_Aaron's card is like 7 years late. Sorry! #

WAS OBAMA EVEN BORN IN THIS TIME-CONTINUUM #looperbirther #
Printed more display and stuff to sell for NYCC 2012 than i've done ever in 11 years. I am trying to get your pants off, internet. #
Great that folks are trying to get digital comics down to 99¢, but giving people almost nothing for that money just creates a new problem. #
when people don't want to pay $3 for a digital comic that doesn't mean they want to pay the same amount on layaway installments. #
TSA employee steals $500 to "punish a passenger" http://t.co/SqJChU8f #
Lawrence of Arabia hasn't started yet but I'm already confident it's the best movie of 2012. #
also i am the youngest person in this theater by at least 200 years #
thanks, @fathomevents for adding a 30 minute featurette to the beginning of a 4+ hour movie. and especially a trailer for the same movie. #
35min into @fathomevents Lawrence of Arabia screening they start another featurette explaining the movie you've paid for but not yet seen #
5th pre-movie video begins at 44min after curtain. @fathomevents has magically turned the audience from excited to shouting at screen. #
intermission. missed the quicksand scene for love of comics. specifically @offsetcomics #LAWRENCE #
Five hours later, Lawrence of Arabia ended. My camel had died. #
funny thing about @SenRandPaul's crack about how he can't get a Big Gulp in NY: 7-11s are one of the few places exempt from the restrictions #
(which is not to say i support the ridiculous soda ban) #
you’re welcome, internet https://t.co/KXq7WZ8h #

pretty sure these kittens think i'm a bellyrub-slave. they won't come to me & instead just roll over and look at me from across the room. #
god i hope the internet has more to say about mitt romney and apple maps #
seems according to @DouthatNYT that latino voters are an interest group & blue collar working class america is white.
http://t.co/U16sn0DG #
there is no conceivable way i would want less to do with NYC real estate than i do right at this second #
messages app thwarts my text comedy to @samhumphries when he switches to gchat. obama's america. #
The @offsetcomics Lab is located just 28,000 light-years outside of Sagittarius A on the Orion-Cyngus Exit. #
hey @urbanbarbarian can you please list every drawing in comics ever and list the fictional characters by proportional accuracy #
EXCELLENT QUESTION: take a look: http://t.co/pRACbz34 “@eriklundy: @IvanBrandon @offsetcomics will you guys be at NYC?” #
any NYCC announcements carry the fine print disclaimer *unless the real estate business compels me to jump into a volcano. #
If this writing business doesn't work out maybe I could rescue kittens for a living. that's big $, right? http://t.co/JSy54H6t #
dunno what show vanessa from the cosby show is on now but it's super refreshing to see a black woman with her natural hair on primetime TV #
BREAKING: i think that thing about his kids was one of his zingers #
“i think the president is a liar like my kids” #
after this debate i can’t wait til 1992 me closes my loop. #
HA! JIM LEHRER!! #
jim lehrer is now my hero forever. that was my favorite moment of any debate in forever. #
romney just got giddy thinking of a zinger #
the president did NOT eat his spinach #
is he just admitting he doesn't have a plan yet to 40 million people? #
i want lehrer to ask if either of these guys really believes the other guy is a supervillain with a wand that derails the entire country #
“@GerryDuggan: Is this a death panel? #debate ?? #
whoever ends up being president should start an initiative to cure stammering #
romney had that zinger in his pocket so long his crotch is smoking #
Man I hope we find that pod. #
i hope the next debate they bring back all the contestants that got fired last season #
in all seriousness anyone who thought romney was gonna get clobbered tonight is probly a little nervous. i don't think anyone expected this. #
This is basically like game 4 of what folks thought of as a sweep. if Romney'd lost he'd be done. Still faces elimination, but has a chance. #
“@MikeDrucker: This will be the first anniversary that Barack gets absolutely zero sex. #debate ?? #
while we were all cracking jokes Turkey shot back at Syria. http://t.co/rOAP693O #
for someone as frustrated by politics as i am i still mascochistically follow an absurd amount of political feeds #
if i had any sense i'd only follow people that make me laugh. #
also @Aiannucci's THE THICK OF IT is so much more satisfying than IRL american politics #

NYCC 2012
Next week is our hometown show, NYCC and it’ll be the first official presentation-spot for OFFSET COMICS. We’re set up at Booth N2, with Cliff Chiang, Andy MacDonald, Eduardo Risso, Leandro Fernandez and special guests galore.
You can map out our location here http://www.mapyourshow.com/shows/index.cfm?Show_ID=nycc12&exhid=363393&booth=N2&hall=N
And we’ll have some content that I hope you’ll love including some limited edition screen prints and a brand new DEATHFACE t-shirt.
And appearances from OFFSET super-talent like Chuck BB and Daniel Krall. Maybe if you ask nice they’ll doodle something for you.

The first ever official @offsetcomics booth will debut at NYCC 2012 next week. Artist Alley Booth N2 (As my new profile picture will attest) #
here's a tiny peek at one of our limited @offsetcomics prints: http://t.co/vqc9KDX9 #

if this doesn't affect you maybe you're a ghost http://t.co/8VneWGG0 #
that mel gibson movie where he can hear women's thoughts? IRL women do the reverse by just reading the comments to their pics on facebook. #
#SERIOUSLYEVERYONECANSEEYOU #HAVESOMEDIGNITY #
also seriously i want to make this amazing picture into a t-shirt http://t.co/BsIg40Jo #
“@GerryDuggan Also – the way those women are holding hands makes it seem like they're terrified he's going to ask them to self-deport.” #
it will be a glorious day when american comics never again fills a gutter with muddy senior-citizen diaper-logo purple #
the COPPER hashtags are the worst thing that ever happened to my TV. #sexhair is a great way to immerse the audience in the 1800s mood. #
