If only you could get addicted to success like you get to heroin. If my lack of social interaction felt like withdrawal to coke you bet I’d be outside making friends and being happy. It feels bad enough to mope about but not enough to be forced to “do what it takes”, ignoring all inhibitions and costs.
just as i was about to leave home to get “some”, i stumbled upon the latest esad… ended up sitting around for about an hour reassessing and reevaluating my life goals. thank you for resurfacing once more mr b.patrick! much love!
Thankful for that special joy I get when there’s a new akimbo comic. I would have to disagree with Trent partially on this one. Maybe my goal is to achieve my other goals while not compromising my ideals. But of course, it has nothing to do with whether I agree or disagree; it’s that you got me thinking about it. Achieving goals comes through effort and sacrifice, even if we are sacrificing something more mundane than our morality, such as a couple hours of TV or a night out on the town.
Speaking of goals and the holiday season, I hope your finals or thesis defense or whatever-it-is-you-do-this-time-of-year go well. I’m sure I speak for all your fans when I say thanks for finding the time to create something new for us.
I started writing a list, and keeping it in my pack of cigarettes, then i would only allow myself a cigarette if i had completed one thing from the list. The list wasn’t anything special just things im doing small and managable but the kind of shit i just never got round to doing, small steps in pursuit of higher goals.
….of course all the falls to shit when i decide ‘ fuck the list, i just want a smoke’, but in the mean time its fine
I think this has been one of the best esad in a while.
it’s alive! it’s in colour! it’s *akimbo*!
happy whatevs to you too!

Your insight continues to make me think about stuff. Fucking love it

Still the only webcomic i read.
I love this comic and Jonny Paycheck’s picture as well as his insight. How do junkies make $500 a day? Stealing, I guess.
Get this shit on Kickstarter or Indiegogo or something. I’d pay for a book of these.
I found these yesterday, i read them all and i love them! The style is pleasing to the eye. Nothing else to say,these are wonderful.
