Today, little different strip as I am not the scenarist. “OMG why in the name of Jundooz??? are you switching your blog model oh noes lol!”. No I’m not so stfu. I’ve realized that the previous strip was nooot reaaally about Valentine’s so Olivia, a young lovely artist (and when I say young, I mean young enough to eat a Happy Meal without a shame), took my drawing book and sketched that strip for me.
Behind that little nice story lies the terrible question of traditions. But what is tradition? Basically, when you do something repeatedly in a ritual manner, after a few generations of doing so, it becomes a tradition. Let’s take feminists for example. Say that every Sunday, my hobby is to beat up a feminist in order to bring balance to the galaxy. Well, if I do that over and over, pass it to my children and so on, it then becomes a tradition.
But are all traditions as awesome as beating the living crap out of a feminist? No. Olivia brilliantly noted the whole “giving-flower” thingy is retarded. And here lies the real question about giving flowers on Valentine’s day… do you hate it because everyone does it? do you hate it because it makes flower shops fat? or do you hate it because it’s a “tradition” and thus forced to do it? Because let’s face it, no matter what, women like to receive flowers…

Valentine the martyr just got eaten by a lion…or was it a tiger…
ps: you gotta love that Boston dog!
YES! AWESOME! The dart! You gotta fucking dart in your neck!
gin-gin > you’re crazy… you’re crazy… I like you … but you’re crazy… *feel so tired…*
This is a fake. The clocks says 9:00 in the morning. Can’t be me. I’m never awake at that time.
en tout cas, le clebs s’amuse beaucoup ^^
(nous aussi, hein, mais bon… on ne va pas le répéter trop souvent! faudrait pas que ça devienne une tradition!)
pps: Boston should definitely be part of the gang!
I don’t like receiving flowers… especially on commercially sanctioned flower-killing days, you know, like St Valentine’s…
In Finland, the 14th of February is “friend’s day” … has a bit of a different connotation than everywhere else, I guess …
Still, I don’t like receiving flowers. I find it a cruel tradition.
“Oh, you’re so pretty! Let me cut your veins, package you into a cellophane membrane, tie some rope around you and give you to someone who can watch your corpse decompose ever so slowly while sagging in a bucket…”
- yeah, talk about romantic! Whew!

YEAH!! BO-STON IN THE GANG, BO-STON IN THE GANG, BO-STON IN THE GANG!
Et pourquoi pas une autre série de strips dont Boston serait le “héros”?
Leiju > Ok, makes sense. How about receiving chocolate?
gin-gin > Boston is supposed to be in the gang but I haven’t had a chance to come up with a good description yet.
soph > with my upcoming job in March, I’m not even sure I can continue Jundooz… so another story with another character MIGHT be difficult…
I like the dog in between !!
Pour ma part je ne mange des Happy Meal qu’en cachette…
PS : toute homonymie avec la co-scénariste de ce strip est pure coïncidence
Olivia > Boston is getting way more attention than me… gonna have to shoot this dog… Omg Olivia you eat McDonald’s????!
That’s because you didn’t buy any flower that you didn’t get the desired attention… (I’m sure you feel terribly guilty, uh ?) so yes, I like cute dogs more in that case, but less than nice guys buying flowers on no special occasion
And once every 10 years I might accidentaly eat McDo, yes, and may be once every 5 Burger King too… Shall I die of a terrible disease ?
I do NOT eat Happy meals!!!!!! Where is my brother’s strip jundooz?
Olivia! I said you have the AGE to eat Happy meals ^_^
As for your brother’s strip, it’s coming, I just had to do a minor change. Stay tuned!
[...] going there live. But I give credit where credit is due. This strip has been written by Robin, Olivia’s brother. He gave me the idea (along with the 100 strip wallpaper) about the Vancouver [...]
