Oh my god Kind of reminds me of my grandma! She’s not that bad, though. Once when I was visiting her, she gave me a looong speech about how dangerous being overweight is. That doesn’t prevent her from stuffing me with all kinds of delicious food, candy and cookies, though, and complaining if I don’t eat enough. Lol!
that = every female relative of mine, including my dad! they do the same thing, come up, pinch fat, then demand to eat all the food they cooked.
at one point they banned sugar and butter from the house
LOL
my aunt in the States is like that too~
She’s like, you gotta lose the weight now, or it’ll be too late.
And then she makes me eat like 5 times a day, and not those tiny meals either :T
Why aren’t you eating more?
lol oh man…
This is my first time on your blog, nice to meet you! I saw your link on Makeup for Professional Asian Women’s page. I loooooove this comic, you have a great sense of humor. My mom is just like that, telling me to lose weight but encouraging me to eat all of her dinners. LOL I hope you do more of these great comic strips, you have a new fan.
Ahahaha, I totally know how this feels. Except everyone says I look gaunt and need to EAT MORE SO YOU CAN GET TALLER. No matter that I stopped growing when I was 12. It’s a mixture of “omg I hate you, you are so skinny” and “eat more you are too skinny.”
I had to explain to hubs that my mom putting food on his plate is normal and mandatory, because she loves you. Hahahahahah!
I love this one, especially the last two panels. The drumsticks look so cute. In the last panel your aunt looks like one of those video game bosses that throw things at the main character….
haha aww, conflicted alienman! my mom pulls this routine with me as well – telling me i’ve gained weight and i should get thinner…and then getting after me if she can see part of my plate (food MUST cover ALL of plate!), and demands I take leftovers too.
oh my god, hahahahs that’s so cute. my aunt does that to me too, but i love her hahahas. she feeds me well XD she complains i’m fat, then feeds me and complains i’m too skinny!! hahahs
lol! fortunately my parents and relatives are more along the lines of “you need to eat more” so they’re not giving confusing messages on that line, but a lot of my friends get that
I look forward to the day you publish a series of books.
HAHAHA that is so funny cuz it’s spot on!! Whenever I visit my grams she ALWAYS says “niku tsuketa ne” which literally translates to “you put on a lot of meat.” Yup just what a girl wants to hear….
Oh God, this is so true about Asian families. I have one particular uncle and aunt that said that I gained the freshman 15 and then proceeded to stuff me like a turkey.
Each and every comment left here has made my smile get bigger and bigger. I look rather creepy and grotesque, now. Thank you so much for encouraging me to keep up the comics, guys You really do know how to make a girl feel good about herself
Giiiiiiiiirl, just insert “Grandma” into your whole Aunty comic thing, and THAT’S EXACTLY what happens. And yet they stilllllllllllll have the nerve to call you out on your weight. Yet, when you don’t clean your plate whole, they give you a lecture on the starving kids in Africa. *sigh* Just no winning here, lol.
Oh btw, wanna switch bodies for a week? I’m supposed to get another 6 inches of snow this upcoming Tuesday. I wouldn’t mind living where you are living, You’re still able to drive to the mall, right? Then sign me up to be popped into Alienman’s body! :p
I am alienman. Writing a small blurb about myself is the hardest thing to do. "Blurb" is a funny word.

Hi,

My mom is just like that, telling me to lose weight but encouraging me to eat all of her dinners. LOL I hope you do more of these great comic strips, you have a new fan.
Although I don’t know your aunt, I have a funny suspicion that your drawing of her is dead-on.
Ahahaha, I totally know how this feels. Except everyone says I look gaunt and need to EAT MORE SO YOU CAN GET TALLER. No matter that I stopped growing when I was 12. It’s a mixture of “omg I hate you, you are so skinny” and “eat more you are too skinny.”

I LOVE THIS. It’s so spot on! And it’s very Angry Little Girls-esque (by Lela Lee) except I like your drawings better
oh my god, hahahahs that’s so cute. my aunt does that to me too, but i love her hahahas. she feeds me well XD she complains i’m fat, then feeds me and complains i’m too skinny!! hahahs
Hahaha! I can def relate to that. My mom is exactly like that!
What is it with asian relatives and the fact that they have to forcefeed us
lol! fortunately my parents and relatives are more along the lines of “you need to eat more” so they’re not giving confusing messages on that line, but a lot of my friends get that
I look forward to the day you publish a series of books.
Haha!! It’s soo funny. Yet sad cuz it’s soo TRUE!!! HOLY CRAP SPEAKS TRUTHS!!! LOL!
lol!! i love your comics!! i love the main character and her drooling… puhahaha
HAHAHA that is so funny cuz it’s spot on!! Whenever I visit my grams she ALWAYS says “niku tsuketa ne” which literally translates to “you put on a lot of meat.” Yup just what a girl wants to hear….
Durr. I think you and I have the same aunt…
Oh God, this is so true about Asian families. I have one particular uncle and aunt that said that I gained the freshman 15 and then proceeded to stuff me like a turkey.
