Hate Annual #3-Very Fine (7.5 – 9)

The Boring, Mundane, Middle-Aged, Middle-Class issue! Another highly anticipated edition of the Hate Annual comes swinging into town. This time around: As always, a Buddy Bradley adventure -- this one dealing with Lisa's new-found obsession with crafting and decorating (a.k.a. "The New Sex"), and Buddy's desperate attempts to appease her Martha Stewart-like aspirations. Also featured: A satire of the daily strip Dilbert called "Dildobert," in which the popular cubicle dweller is compelled to join a terrorist organization; an appreciation of the best songs currently being played on Radio Disney's impossibly short and rarely updated Playlist; a 20-page saga of the trials and tribulations of that hopelessly self-analytical suburban couple, Chet and Bunny Leeway, and much more! 48 pages, full color. Mature Readers.
