Quaint But Skanky

I can't draw cars.

I realized that as I was trying to draw cars for this strip. This is probably my third or fourth attempt, and it still came out flat. Anyway! Peu importe.

So my parents and I went to Poland for the weekend. We spent one night in Poznan, which apparently is the third biggest city in Poland. It was a short little trip, but it was great to get out of the city and see something different for a change. The weather was awesome throughout the trip, the leaves were changing colour and and starting to fall, and the food was fantastic.

But yes. One thing we found out about driving in the countryside in Poland is that the road is lined on one hand with quaint little mushroom/honey/eel vendors and skankily-clad prostitutes and shady-looking night clubs on the other. It was such a hilariously unforgettable sight.

Anyway. Unfortunately, I didn't do anything for Halloween this year, so I'm just going to cry and watch this video. "Wouldn't you like to four score with me?"

One year, I'm going to dress up as sexy Abraham Lincoln. One year.

  1. we saw the same thing in the czech republic. but since we were little and didn't know what prostitutes were, we called them 'cheeky ladies' because their bumcheeks showed.

  2. Cheeky ladies is awesome. That's what I'm going to call them from now on.
    And ACK! You're right. I have to make sure to keep them consistent. Mostly it comes from my lack of foresight as I draw . . . Danke!
