Gawkward Girl

Simple comics illustrating life's little funny moments, but especially the most awkward ones. Also, there may be a fair amount of fan-girling involved. -- © L Glorioso 2013

Tried to put pen to paper with my thoughts on depression after hearing the horrible news and seeing what erupted on my newsfeed.

A friend of mine told me "You have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince." [picture with lots of frogs and a banner saying "Definitely Frogs"] Screw the prince. I'm done kissing frogs. At this rate I'll take a half-rate blacksmith.

Further Adventures in Online Dating

"Wut r u lookin 4 in a guy" “Proper punctuation, grammar and the ability to use a dictionary.”

Is it too much to ask?

[gawkwardgirl]

"Useless Euphemisms"

"I get easily confused when people use euphemisms. Really. I do.

"I spent a whole conversation with someone who went on and on about this guy who just wanted a cookie. And I’m thinking, ‘just go get a goddamn cookie!’

"Then it finally dawns on me. She means ‘sex’. Cookie = sex! Ohhh… This conversation makes so much more sense now…

"Wait. WTF. Why can’t you just say ‘sex’…? Thanks to you I’ve lost half an hour of my life I’m never getting back and now I want a cookie. A real cookie."

Chocolate chip, please.

The Problem With Online Dating

As described to me by a friend:

"People say online dating is the future of love and romance. Unfortunately, this doesn’t bode well for the future of the human race. You have four basic types of heterosexual male online dating profiles.

The Douchebag - He’s young, fit, “looking for a perfect 10” and more than a bit full of himself.

The Senior Citizen - He’s nice, charming, well-employed. He’s also 15 years out of your already liberal age range.

The Slacker - Nice guy, focused on ‘finding myself’ while he works part time and his parents pay his student loans.

Mister Picky - Great guy, but he’s got a laundry list of prerequisites longer than the Mississippi.

What’s an average girl to do?”

"Giorgio and Manny In The Morning"

If male armor in video games was as completely useless as female armor in video games. Two ‘sportscasters’ discuss.

"Sir Swingsalot took an unfortunate blow just there. A designer piece, that breastplate was inspired by the dawn of spring, as evidenced by the delicate silver ivy and violets motif."

"Unfortunately, the fine lattice work proved to be completely ineffective protection. And Swingsalot will not be continuing to the next round of mayhem."

"This has been Giorgio and Manny In The Morning. Join us tomorrow for Top 10 Moments in the history of Looting and Pillaging."

And also a debate of who got bicep implants, who’s airbrushed, and whose are genuine.

"Road to recovery is aided by the magic concoctions Flexeril and ibuprofen."

[revolutionrethink]

"Yesterday an uninsured driver ran a red light, hit my car, spun me into another car and fled the scene after I asked for her ID. Some witnesses said it looked like she was texting while driving.

"Be safe out there on the roads, folks.

1. Don’t text and drive. 2. Wear a seat belt. It saved my life and it can save yours. 3. Get/maintain your insurance. Please.

Be safe.

Like trying to find a Tumblr name that hasn't been taken...

[gawkwardgirl]

Most days I convince myself I'm an adult. And then I spend all day watching cartoons and eat ice cream for dinner.

Doodling on lunch. "My friends tell me that every pot has a lid. Well, apparently, my lid went on clearance four years ago. And has been out of stock since."

[gawkwardgirl]

My state of mind today. Yes, that's a mushroom cloud where my head should be...

“Got some bad news today. Have a bad case of foot-in-mouth disease. Doc says there’s no cure.”

Awaiting the Twelfth Doctor!

I informed a good friend this morning that I would be late for her party because I had to wait and see who the Twelfth Doctor is.
