This strip was my mum’s idea. She suggested it before I did Lost in Translation Pt 1. I told her I’d already written a strip on the topic of misheard lyrics, but I had to make it work. “Sunrise meatballs” indeed. And much love to Crystal, who pointed out “gay men go”. Thank you so much. I will never hear it correctly again.

Oh, if my cat weren’t so cute, I’d murderlize her.

I’ve read the lyrics for “Hideaway”. I’ve read an English translation of “Hideaway”. I’ve listened to “Hideaway” probably a hundred times. Still don’t understand it and think it sounds like “You got a bojangle”… Don’t get me started on “Stay Away”. WTF does “Trying trying in yourself” mean?

But to be honest, this comic is a total lie. I’d NEVER be able to get the Japanese correct.

I love listening to SModcast. It’s hilarious. Unfortunately, I do have to limit it to when I’m penciling or doing digital work. Ink does not have a handy “undo” feature.

You ESPECIALLY don’t want to underestimate his want to touch or be touched by other men. Both Illuminati and Vanilla have been known to melt FANGIRLS, let alone gaydars. But to be fair, I think Gackt even had chemistry with the speaker in the Illuminati live. And Moon Child… Well, it’s summed up in the alternate title given by my brother: “Gay Vampires Who Hate Themselves”.

Now that procrastination is behind me… It’s time to be suicidally behind! (For the record: Right now my situation is “Life imitates art imitates life”. *sigh*)

You know what? I’m really NOT ashamed. Arashi is freakin’ awesome, in a shiny, happy rainbow-dancing boy band way. But my singing is something that should ALWAYS be shameful. Especially when I try to sing in Japanese (or in this case, Engrish)

The not-so-epic conclusion in the war of Clare vs Procrastination. The winner? SWEET, SWEET IRONY!

Lovingly dedicated to my best friend Jen, for reasons which should be very clear to anyone who knows her. Yeah, so… Honestly, I like VAMPS’ version better than Bowie’s. After I did this comic, I realized the punchline was a tad similar to I’m My Own Mascot’s Masaman Armageddon. Oops…. Sorry, K.Bo! But I defend it with Pink Fangasm Explosion is something very different than Curry of Doom Explosion…. (For example: More fun for me.)

Ego beats Sloth every time.

BTW, I am NOT dressed as a Mountie… It’s the uniform of the Ontario Provincial Police, not the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. (I dunno why I felt the need to point that out)
