I draw cartoons with obvious jokes and lame premises. Sometimes your mother clips them out of the New Yorker and sends them to you.

Psyched - I combined a patently unfunny concept with a bit of trite Orientalism. Will play well on the UWS. http://t.co/nDtquK9P

Why lie? I sketched this crap in my sleep after too many Ambiens, and submitted it cuz my editors are suckers. http://t.co/hV0ZeIMM

Everything is so bleak.

Almost finished with my 27-panel epic cartoon about pain fetishism. This year's cartoon issue is gonna rule.

Disclaimer: this is my least funny cartoon yet. http://t.co/GKlMNhQe

Did you see my cover for @newyorker? It's a play on that famous 'map of Manhattan', but I've managed to strip out all the humor and grace.

Read that someone wrote a comic book about health care reform. I tried to do it, too, but my knowledge of medicine ends after the DSM-IV.

No one ever cracks wise about New York characters, so I gave it a go. Groundbreaking, right? http://t.co/xY55UPLp

Except, of course, anything related to the Tiger Mother. God, I have such a massive backlog of Tiger Mother cartoons. Literally, stacks.

Looks like @AmyTanWriter is no longer following me. Why? Is it that Asians don't exist in my cartoon world? Because that's not negotiable.

[Roz Chast @FakeRozChast]

Working on a "Shit Upper West Siders Say" cartoon. Should be both hackneyed and well past the trend's sell-by date when it eventually runs.

Major regret: I wish I'd known about energy sheets before turning in this gem. http://t.co/ELgxcjaH

Daughter complains I don't use her as a model anymore. Well of course I don't! It's her fault - she straightened her hair. #therapy

Not sure about you all, but my whole family needs therapy after a whirlwind Hanukkah. Will report our zany therapy antics as they occur.

IDEA: Various middle-aged people complaining about various ailments. This should be a winner.

True confession: I drew Cathy for a brief period in the 1980s.

Just finished a sub-humorous 'think piece' based on a lazy pun. It really fails to deliver - I'm very psyched. http://t.co/U6lVDhT1
