One of Those Days

Hmmm. There was something about this that I really didn't like.

This is a collection of slice-of-life one-panel comics, mostly gag jokes around domesticity and - eventually - parenting. The art itself is VERY good; Yehuda Devir has incredible draftsmanship. And the themes are right up my alley: I am 100% in the householder phase as well right now. BUT, a lot of this kinda rubbed me the wrong way. It felt... conservative? Like, it's a celebration of red-blooded, hetero-normative, patriarchal stuff; and the hyped-up Adonis figures that the author puts himself and his wife in just felt odd. Like, there's lots of perfect bodies being perfect, and jokes about just wanting to eat Nutella. I'd love to have Slavoj Zizek read this and comment.
