...went to Montreal with Ben one weekend, and to New York with more roommates the next. I was spending lots of time with my amazing new girlfriend, Catherine. Still, I felt weird, antsy and a little bored. Most of my friends had become thesis-writing hermits, while I, too often, still seemed to think I was in hectic-schedule mode. Only after a month or so did I really start to get the hang of this whole “chilling out” thing. (And, admittedly, I became a big sib for Boston Refugee Youth Enrichment (BRYE), in part...
...eventually got bored. Unlike "Trashed," Derf does not play this misery for laughs. His normally goofy drawing style, full of oversized heads and knobby knees, gets toned down. The shading gets heavier. But where "Trashed," tells a real story, "My Friend Dahmer," never feels like much more than creepy, weird, Dahmer-iana.

Alien atmospherics were the theme of the night, with the downstairs lounge of the Middle East and clumps of equally weird onlookers basking in light tinged sickly green. Clouds of smoke were penetrated by sheets of cacophonic noise draped over the occasional sullen bass boom, sounding like a malevolent heartbeat. The stage was littered with mostly unidentifiable contraptions; only the distinctive white outline of an iBook served as a reminder that this was conceived by humans...
