(35) O a faggot bufoon

Here's something that hasn't changed. Gay literature splits into camps of tacky (raunchy) or PC, and "Either type will bore or offend somebody." 

Too true of cartoons in general. Hey, maybe if I try hard enough I can do both at the same time!

On the whole I have probably worried too much about giving offense  in trying to make everybody happy with my cartoons. Result: it avoids offense but takes the bite out of cartoons. It's how we get comic strips like the Family Circus. O a private buffoon is a lighthearted loon if you listen to popular rumor…
