Thanks for the link to the “Five TV Shows on the Bubble That Should Be Saved.” I really enjoyed your contribution to the group writing project about the best supporting characters on The Office.

I probably would have thrown Kevin in instead of Jan, but you can’t deny her importance in the overall story for giving Michael many an opportunity to say something stupid and cringingly funny at the same time.

Ah yes, did I leave that purposely vague? I think I did.
FoxTrot for simple gags with a sprinkling of pop cultural references.
Zits for reflecting my real life in really quite creepy ways, especially in the interaction between parents/child.
For Better or For Worse for long-term storytelling. I buy the books, and it’s just always really fascinating to return to them and watch real character arcs take place. It’s rarely “funny”, but it’s a different kind of read.

…while I sincerely apologize for the rather unfortunate error, at the same time? A great Freudian slip that I’m mildly proud of.

Myles – thanks for the props. It’s funny how simple things often get ignored in life. I’m glad I found out about this problogger contest so I could spread the tips.

(btw – it’s the bigUGLYcouch. I don’t want to get in trouble for copyright infringement on the title of a really bad kid’s show.)
