Pointless, but fun.  And much less whiny than the other one.

For a regular person to have the speculum of public entitlement visit every word that falls from their lips is not a fate I would wish upon anyone but the most hidebound parking control officer.

The use of the "speculum" in this context bothers me.  I find myself questioning if he's been misquoted, or misspoke here.

He's always had an issue with that. I sort of hoped he was going to quit for good since he's got such a huge problem having a public.

It is kind of hopeful to me, though, that a guy gettin' write-ups in TIME and going on national tours as a writer seems like he's unraveling mentally too.

Failure is not the thing driving me fuck*ng nuts. It's good to know this.

It looks really weird to read it but, like, seriously. It is good to know that success can drive a man bonkers just as well as not having figured out how to make a living creatively does.

On the one hand, it seem obvious from observation that creative success does not solve all a person's problems just the way money does not solve all a person's problems. On the other hand, I would sure like to be successful enough to test that hypothesis.

You know, I've never had a problem with money.  There have been times in my life when I had more money than I needed and it didn't cause me to start spending foolishly.  I consider myself fortunate in that regard.

I dunno, he totally sounded like he was on crack or something. Did he used to be more or less coherent, or am I misremembering?

I suspect that he hates being interviewed, that this one was conducted via e-mail, and he took the opportunity to dash it off three sheets to the wind as a big "fuck you" to his "public."

I dreamt there was a new Achewood last night. It was animated, and beautiful. I was like, "If it takes him so long because he's doing something like this, that's okay."

Naturally, I do not remember what the strip was about.
