I want to do something crazy for a part - something I'd never even consider in real life.

I wouldn't want to be reincarnated as a butler. I couldn't for the life of me do the job in real life.

Even in real life, I'd rather hang out with guys.

I've never scratched, or punched, or slapped anybody in my real life.

I don't want to dream anymore, I want my life to be real!

The relationship between Cathy and Mom in the strip is the one relationship drawn from real life that I have proudly never even tried to disguise.
