Frequently Asked Questions

 
"Who are you and why are you an idiot?"
I’m a graduate of Sheridan College’s Film program, and I'm in and around the Greater Toronto Area. I draw these comics when I’m not working on film or writing projects. As for the latter, I dunno. The result of candy and soda, maybe?

"Was your childhood dream to do these silly drawings? Why didn’t you aim higher, like VP of Business & Legal Affairs?"
Actually, the first time I did anything that was remotely comic-like was in college when I doodled on my shot lists during the production of one of my films. In later years, I did a few more primitive doodles on buses, trains and streetcars. I posted those on Facebook, which some of my friends enjoyed, so I decided to move the primitive doodles to a website. And so here we are.

"What’s with all the yellow paper?! It’s hurting my retinas!"
I use yellow paper to write story outlines. Some of the early doodles were done on yellow paper as well.

"That's it. I can’t take this anymore. Where can I send my hate mail?"
You can reach me @ jon@jongarciafilms.com.

"I’m a lawyer and I represent a number of the films that you have made reference to in your comic. I would like to speak to you further regarding this matter. Can you kindly let me know what is the best way to reach you?"
Um… For something like that, contact me at, uh… fakeemail@moreorlesscomic.com.

"I’m a 13-year-old boy and I don’t know anything about girls. :( Where can I find some info on them, so I could know something about ‘em finally?"
I was gonna ask you the same thing.

"I’m a subcontractor from Japan. Do you sell plywood cutouts?"
No. And I never did. Ever.

"Was that last question something that would only be funny to three people in the entire world?"
Pretty much.

"Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
I theorize that it was the egg. Inside the egg was something that mutated into a chicken, the offspring of two curious animals.

"When was the last time you threw up?"
I was watching Vanilla Sky. True story.
"Seriously, why are you an idiot?"
When I was an infant, I had a compulsive habit of opening kitchen cabinets and taking out the pots and pans that were inside. I’ve been told that I was not necessarily interested in interiors of the cabinets, or even the pots and pans themselves. Apparently the act of dumping the cookware onto the kitchen floor was the sole purpose for this activity. Unfortunately, one time there was a freak accident and I banged my head so hard that a huge gash ripped open on the left side of my forehead. (I have no recollection of any of this, which may be because it was such a long time ago, or the result of the banging of the head involved in the story.) I was immediately rushed to the hospital where I received a fair amount of stitches to close up the wound, stitches that are still visible to this day. This incident may be the culprit.

"What else do you do, so I can be hostile towards that, too?"
You can grind your teeth by first clicking on the Sandbox link.

"Were any of these actual 'frequently asked questions'?"
Aw, c'mon, let's just try to have a good time.
