Hilarious Takes On Our Society’s Flaws, As Illustrated By Sarah Morrissette (39 New Pics)
Interview With Artist
Sarah's journey into the world of cartooning began as a way to escape boredom as she grew up on an off-the-grid Greek island in a hippie commune. Nowadays, the artist has a steady job, and cartooning is her side gig, even though she shared previously that she "decided not to become an artist like many of the struggling 'alternative lifestyle' adults around" her.
We sure are happy that Sarah employed her pen once again, as her comics never fail to captivate us. To come up with unique ideas, Sarah stays "hyper-aware most of the time," which lets her get inspired by anything around her, whether it be something in a conversation or just something she sees.
So, without further ado, let's see what the artist has cooked up since her last post.

In an interview with Bored Panda, Sarah disclosed what has changed since her last post.
“Because of my cartoon in The New Yorker, I’ve gained new Instagram followers, but I’m getting a bit weary of the self-induced pressure to post, and don’t feel like spending the time to make cute reels with all the bells and whistles. 'Feeding the monster,' I call it. I’d rather generate good ideas and draw.
I’m considering starting a Substack, which would probably require the same amount of time, but (hopefully) lead to more real connections. Please DM me if you think it would be a good idea for me to write and draw about my years as a kid and teen living in a hippie commune. Lots of nudity and drugs, off-the-grid. I couldn’t wait to leave that place. I’ve written a manuscript and would like to share bits of it. Figure out how to make it a better book.”
We sure would like to hear more about Sarah’s past, but what about you, Pandas?

On a lighter note, the artist shared a typical day is like for her when she’s working on a new comic.
“Stop my bike to type an idea into my phone. If I don’t write down an idea, I’ll forget it. I tell myself I’m throwing away over $700 dollars if I don’t write it down. If I say I’ll remember it because it’s such a perfect idea, I won’t. Then I draw the most tempting ideas first,” shared Sarah.

Seconded! If I’m dead, I’m not using it anymore anyway.

At the time I first heard about how quickly cats will start eating you after you die, I had a big cat that would start munching on my fingers when I was ASLEEP.

This is Jeremy Hardy's take on why dogs are better pets than cats. "Dogs are stupid and cats are clever. If you fall down the stairs and break your hip, the dog will rusb about barking and might raise the alarm. If you have a cat, you will talk to it, trying to persuade it to bring you the phone, and the cat will simply stare at you with an annoyed expression, wondering how hungry it will have to get before it eats your face."

The artwork on these gives a sort of 'Charles Addams' vibe, and this one surely is channeling the man himself!
Sarah also shared a time when a reader's response really touched her.
“I love every single 'like,' laughing emoji, and comment. Favorite moment: When a fan in England bought one of my first cartoons 'Worried too much, worried too little.' It felt nice for someone to like the idea as much as I did and actually shell out money for it.”
But there are always two sides to an artist’s life and Sarah told what ideas she gets to abandon.
“I scrap ideas that require tons of characters in complicated settings that I can’t draw.”

"Doesn't matter which one as long as it turns into wine by the time it reaches the table"
Lastly, the biggest hope that Sarah has for her readers is: “A good belly laugh. Even a silent chuckle will do.”

I am waiting for how this is funny. Swap out the color for a different one, and it suddenly hits different? Being happy is not an offense to your neighbor.

I guess it's supposed to be funny because in multiracial stories, it would raise the question of what happened to everuone else (also, look at the person's hat) kinda like how saying black people live happily ever after when the story was 30% white heroes as well would beg the question of where the white heroes went

Came to say 'Brain her with a coconut and take the boat." Glad to see it's been covered.

Reminds me of some fun I had with JWs many years ago. I had advanced warning they were coming, so I grabbed my cat Ragamuffin and answered the door with her in my arms. After listening to their spiel I said, "Thank you, but I am a practicing witch, and this," indicating my cat, "is my familiar." They left skid marks.

Those things must have been pretty tasty for our ancestors to have gone to all that trouble to bag them.

This is about right. People put a lot of money into expensive houses, but they have become essentially a place where you look at your phone. You'd be as well off in a cave most days.
