Wait, your English professor thought people in China answered the phone with the Japanese phrase "Moshi moshi"? Did he also tell you Madame Bovary was a classic English novel?

No, but he did lecture us about how The Simpsons was the pinnacle of western animation and comedy at one point. Dude loving loved The Simpsons.

To be fair though there was a time when the Simpsons was a really, really good show.

That was well over a decade ago. Probably two decades. That show hasn't been funny in ages.

It's worth noting that professors can definitely be fuckin nerds too. Pretty much by definition, really.

On topic, here's the comic I was joking about. Long story short - crazy woman blows a literal million dollars on video games and anime figurines, fancies herself an artist / "ideas woman", gets extremely pissed at boyfriend when he doesn't build a full on game engine for her, because he's too busy working his actual job to support them.

Jennifer Diane Reitz is a game designer who is responsible for the actually not bad puzzle game Boppin'. She is also histrionic and insane but has mostly kept a low profile. I seem to remember she made quite a bit of money off of her game designs and selling off what was, I think, one of the earliest game demo download websites back in the late 90s. She's one of those early period drama cows - that Kokoro wish comic is probably 15 years old now.

That said, JDR was 31-32 in 1991 when Boppin' came out, so there you go.

it was happypuppy.com, she sold it back in like 1999/2000 for a cool million and pissed it all away on anime merchandise. She blamed whoever ponytail dude is there for her not being a super famous and still rich game dev. have no idea what she's been up to since or if she's even still alive.

The Kokoro Wish comic is one of the oldest funny things on the internet that always makes me really happy to know that it's still popping up to this day
