[Golabutron 3000] Bastich Vs. The Mess

Commentary

This strip was originally published in the G3K blog back in 2002. From that original post:

This is the kind of thing that seems funny at 1am, but probably won't seem funny after I've had some sleep. I spent the majority of this weekend trying to clean my room and reading James Kochalka comics. Plus a bunch of other stuff like meeting up with Kathleen to catch a Midnight Madness showing of Harold and Maude, watching the Critereon DVD of The Seven Samurai twice (the second time was for the awesome commentary), and picking up Capcom vs. SNK for the GameCube and getting beaten down by my roommate. The mess has been reduced, but it still looms. Overall, a good weekend.

A lot of real-world junk in my room is represented in that pile. A few items I can recognize:
