We’re fans of Josh Fruhlinger’s hilarious blog about the sad state of the newspaper funny pages, The Comics Curmudgeon (joshreads.com), so it’s only fitting that his day-to-day tweets are just as funny. The Charles Village dweller’s tweets hit everything from sharp sarcastic jibes at lazy news writing (“‘I’m Darth Vader,’ he said, referring to a movie villain.’ http://bit.ly/n0cW5u Thanks, AP, for guiding us through a confusing pop culture!”) to solid self-deprecation (“Someone ate ice cream in a comic and then I had to eat ice cream in real life, this is why there shouldn’t be ice cream in the house”). For daily wisecracks about city life or the nonstop tragedy-porn that is the Funky Winkerbean newspaper strip, Fruhlinger is the guy to beat.
