Memoirs of a Man in Pajamas
Memoirs of a Man in Pajamas | Paco Roca
1 post | 1 read
At 40, cartoonist Paco Roca has finally achieved his childhood dream -- to spend all day at home in his pajamas! However, his blissful, loungewear-clad reverie is beset with a host of mundane problems: He dreads small talk with "the world's biggest bore," but his excuses and white lies are finally catching up with him. When good friends breaks up, taking either side could lead to social disaster. The simple mission to change his train ticket descends into an impossibly complicated, Kafkaesque affair. And worst of all, his partner keeps hanging the toilet paper roll the wrong way! In the vein of sitcoms like Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, Roca's comic vignettes brilliantly satirize the pesky pitfalls of modern-day life. Like most of us, Roca's alter ego just wants to be liked and to do the right thing, but finds that through crippling indecision, cowardly behavior, and the absurd machinations of the universe, he is usually thwarted. The ensuing situations he finds himself embroiled in are as hilarious as they are often painfully relatable.

I don‘t know if I feel seen…

…or judged!

RaeLovesToRead Hahaha, it looks like the next part of this comic goes on to say how hoarding is unhelpful and we should put less of an onus on possession of material things? Good job you pasted over that bit 😉😉😉😉💃💃💃 TO THE BOOKSHOP!!!!! 7mo
wanderinglynn 🤣 so true. And public libraries are great . . . but they don‘t have *every* book (and a lot of what I like to read I can‘t find at the library). So there‘s that. As @RaeLovesToRead said, to the bookshop! 7mo
TheLudicReader Please, everyone knows it‘s not hoarding if it‘s books. 😂 7mo
