Why do comic fans get stereotyped so much?

A friend linked me to this yesterday, and I just had to share. Written and drawn by some guy who works in a comic book shop, Our Valued Customers is a webstrip in which he quotes actual things he's heard his customers say.



Some other stand-outs beneath the cut...

Yeah, they only have them every other year, and the GGs don't really come 'round my neighborhood that I've been around for (pity, they'd probably do pretty well here), but I used to work in an office down the street from their HQ back east.

Ah. No wonder, then. The only cookies I tend to have are the homemade kind - which, to be fair, are pretty damn good.

Mmm, I should make cookies this weekend. It'd be a nice reward for this frankly insane week. Four deadlines, and I'm sick on top of it.

In that case, make a double batch. That's what I did for Halloween. Cookies for days!

Hot Samoas on Thin Mints action!

Are Hot Samoas spicy cookies or something?

No, they're vanilla cookies coated in caramel, sprinkled with toasted coconut and laced with chocolate stripes. (AKA Caramel DeLites)

Sounds good! Coconut isn't really my thing, but otherwise - yum!
