April Fools
So I didn’t have time to think of a good prank for yesterday (unlike last year), so here’s the only April Fools anecdote I can remember from my youth.
Also, I found out last week that Boumeries is a nominee for Best Francophone Comic at the Expozine Awards! Expozine is a small press fair here in Montreal, and they reward the best books sold during the fair. I’m thrilled and honoured to be a finalist!
The way your brow and hairline are drawn in the first panel…You look like you have panties on your head! XD
Ohmahgosh, no way. xD I just stared at that after I read this comment then went, “Whoa.”
Hah!! It’s true!
That must have been his April fool’s joke =P
You are destined to be some nice troll, heheh.
0:)
Dear Boum,
You are an inspiration to everyone everywhere, and we never want you to change.
Love,
♥The World♥
=DDD Seriously, You are awesome.
Awww geeeeez <3 <3 <3
Anecdote is such a cool word… But that’s beside the point! Great comic strip as always. I’m a big fan of your angelic facial expression XD I also like the fact that the guy has a semi-bowl cut… oh, the Nineties. Btw, why did it have to be a fish?
Congrats on being nominated for awesome stuff! Expozine sounds like a great concept :)
Oh! I never thought of that. In french, April Fools is called “Poisson d’avril” (April Fish). So, one of the most popular prank is to put a drawing of a fish on the back of people.
And he has a Tommy Hilfiger shirt. Nineties indeed.
Like Pierre-Luc said — the fish thing was the only prank they’d tell us about on April Fools, so for a while I believed it was the only thing April Fools was about. XD
Thanks!!
Yeah, I noticed the “Hilfiger” on his shirt =)
Wow, I never knew that! This might sound stupid, but I feel that I’m learning new stuff all the time from reading webcomics (that goes especially for journal and autobio comics) :D It’s nice to know very specific language related/cultural differences like that.
It’s not stupid! Everyone is different. I’m also learning how different it is here than elsewhere, and I like it :)
I feel the same way! Plus, the people in comments are so curious, which helps! =3
ah, poisson d’avril! je l’ai oublie!
je voulais placer un poisson a une personne, mais j’ai oublie. mon pere me pose “what’s poisson d’avril?” parce qu’il a vu cette bande dessine. Je lui ai explique.
i probably sound like a three year old, oh goodness. i’m only in french 3 in school! D:
Are you kidding? I was reading this and I was like “Whoa, this person is a francophone and I never knew it!” Your French is great!
thank you so much! i was worried about whether or not to use imparfait or passe compose D: you made my day (which happens frequently, actually. your comics make me laugh whenever i feel blue) with that. :D
I mean it! :)
Thanks~
Congrats!! you deserve it =D!
Thank you!
Protip: Being held back a year isn’t a good indication of intelligence and alertness. :D
True that :D
