CrapStick Doodle

I'm trying something new with the delivery of comedy videos with the launch of CrapStick Doodle, a sort of webcomic / cartoon / blog / podcast set to still images / Video series on crack. This is supposed to be very loosely based on my life and opinions. Basically, I start by writing and recording an audio comedy bit and put together some images found on Google, or ones that are ridiculously poorly drawn by me. Here is the first episode:


This is all very early and experimental, and at this time even I don't really have any concrete idea for the format, art style, or characters. I'm basically just throwing a bunch of shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. It could have potential to be something worthwhile and funny, or it might be the biggest waste of time of my life. As it stands right now I could really go either way.

The first episode addresses my longstanding issue with the backyard game of Cornhole sharing a name with a common euphemism for anal prison rape. As for the title of the series, my girlfriend actually came up with the name CrapStick Doodle. After making this video, I asked her to come up with a name for the series. She said she had no idea because she hadn't seen the video and had no idea what it was even about. I said, "So what? Come up with something anyway, dammit!" and she jokingly responded with "Crapstick Doodle." Since the quality of the drawing is worse than that of a third grader, I actually found the name oddly appropriate and stuck with it.

Anyway, I don't have any delusions that this first video is even decent, but I'm okay with that, because my first live-action comedy sketch was a piece of shit too, but it showed potential for better things. So I hope you're at least mildly amused and see potential for the format evolving into something watchable.

Some more things I'd do if I were a boy...


What up, y'all? It's me, Beyonce! I hope you're enjoying my new hit song "If I were a Boy." It's a song about putting myself in the other side's shoes and how I'd do things different. It's about how if I were a male and I had a truly special woman, I'd always appreciate her, hold her tight, never let her go, and always be there for her. Shut up, there's nothing lezzed out about that!

Anyway, I had a lot more to say about what I'd do if I were a boy, but my record label cut the track down to 4:08. I'd like to take the opportunity now to share with you the lost verses that the damn suits tried to keep from you.

If I were a boy,
I'll tell you what's what,
I'd bend my wiener back really far
to see if it'd fit in my butt

Actually, that's all they cut out. I was thinking about writing a whole bunch of stuff about experiencing societal gender double standards from the other side and gaining more perspective about the ways of the world than I could ever know, but all I really want to know is if a penis is long enough to bend backward into the butt. I tried to get a guy to do it for me once in high school, but he was all like "Bitch, you crazy!" and I've kept it to myself since then. So that's what's going on with me. I'm sure you've got your own problems. Move along.

New video, sorta
