Life in Hell by Matt Groenig

In the 1990's, Matt Groenig had a comic strip with rabbits as its main characters called "Life is Hell."  I read one of the strips today and I had write it down, it was so funny.

Two rabbits are talking to each other, we'll call them A and B.  In each frame they are in profile, facing each other.


A:  My therapist says that maintaining a relationship is hard work.
B:  My therapist says that everything is your fault.


A:  My therapist says we shouldn't dump our frustrations on each other.
B:  My therapist says I can do better than hanging out with a loser like you.


A:  My therapist says we need to value each other's needs and desires as highly as we value our own.
B:  My therapist says if it weren't for you everything would be fine.


A:  My therapist says we need to learn to have empathy for each other.
B:  My therapist says you need to keep your big mouth shut.


A:  My therapist says we need to manage our anger more effectively.
B:  My therapist says I'm fully justified in smashing your face in.


A:  My therapist says we have to learn conflict resolution.
B:  My therapist says you are a sick and twisted individual.


A:  My therapist says we need to learn to communicate our needs and vulnerabilities.
B:  My therapist says you sound like a real jerk.


A:  I think I need to get a better therapist.
