    … that drowns, the tender reed

  • http://www.jillmurray.com Jill Murray

    But will you do the fandango?

  • John Duncan

    *pfft*
    Everyone knows that love, it is a razor, that leaves the soul to bleed.
    (Also, yay! This makes much better use of the comic form. Good job!)

  • Ron Nurwisah, Boy Reporter

    The man sings Queen and Bette Midler? Weird.

  • Rex

    Ha! I think there must be a Toronto bylaw that states every downstairs neighbour is required to sing at an obnoxiously loud volume at the oddest hours. Either that, or George’s twin brother has lived below me in every apartment I’ve ever rented.

  • HAHAHAH

    HHAHHAHA. OMG. IT’S FUNNY CAUSE IT’S TRUE! HAHAHAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAH! OH MAN, I LOVE THAT COMIC MORE THAN CATHY! HAHAHHHAHAHAH! WAIT TILL I TELL THE GIRLS ABOUT THIS ONE! HAHHAHAHAAHA

  • George

    Next time don’t build a bookcase while I’m trying to sleep.

  • rek

    Better!

  • jen

    This was cute and so true. I also have a (more benign) George below me.
    thanks, your original detractor, jen.

  • Karen

    Hee hee. This is my favourite so far.

  • Tlönista

    No, no, no. The most recent studies have clearly shown that love is a hunger, an endless aching need. That stuff about the razor is a long-debunked urban myth with no scientific support whatsoever.

  • andrew

    hi – downstairs neighbour here. just wanted to say, i don’t sing loud past 11pm. before then, and especially on weekends, i’m prone to covers of concrete blonde, roseanne carter-cash, codeine, springsteen, the police, and st etienne. no bette, no queen.

  • Marc Lostracco

    Reminds me a bit of this curious story.

  • rek

    Love is a battle field.

  • bernard

    that’s amazing.
    george knows how to live.

  • leslie

    he may just be saying it (‘stop banging’) without knowing if you can hear him, out of desperation

  • Lo

    I like the 5th drawing very much! and the comments on 5th of 6th pictures are good: )) love!
    Lo

  • david

    Love is all around.
    I always got the neighbors having sex loudly. It was kinda fun.
