Monty by Jim Meddick for January 19, 2012

Nope, not the coffee mug, either.

Admitting you heart someone is a big step. Maybe she wasn’t ready.

I’d go on one date with him just for the tote! I’d say, “I totes had a great time with you!”

Speed dating could lead to a quick wedding and a even quicker divorce.

You see, Monty, “basic marketing principles” is not what is going to win over a girl’s interest. This is not a sales presentation.

Monty seems to make Jon Arbuckle look like casanova from time to time.

Where can I get one of those pens with nerd glasses? Maybe shifty Vince (slap chop guy) should be helping sell the Monty line.

“swag” means “stolen goods”, so…But I like the pencil B—)

He’s actually trying to promote himself which is a step up. He’s doing a terrible job of it, though; she looks soooo unimpressed. If she is on his left side wearing the shirt, it would mean she is with someone else not him. Hee hee. Good spot on the pen with the nerd glasses. I like that.

Monty dated for three minutes long,she up and walked away.Now he’s singing a long sad song.Good luck for another day.

I really, really want one of those nerd pens!!

Maybe we should bombard Meddick with requests for the nerd pen. I remember that Berkeley Breathed had to develop some “Bill the Cat Fan Club” certificates after promising them once in a Sunday strip… I remember because I had to wait for mine.

What? Maybe a Monty koozie would have helped close the deal.

Malcolm Gladwell’s “Blink” examines that question…

At first, I thought the blue shirt was gonna say “I’m with stupid”..That one could’ve gone a few ways, I’d say.

Already have a bundle of totes. .…..Want the Nerd Pen! Please?

Oh man I too would absolutely buy that awesome Monty pen!
