JEFBOT.104_The Naughty List
Something approximating the conversation in this strip happened between Michael Cornacchia (the Cornfather’s inspiration) and I a couple weeks back. He didn’t have a “Naughty List” then, but if he did, I’m sure you wouldn’t want to be on it.
As documented way back in JEFBOT.20_Sith Happens, Michael hosts kid parties on the weekends, and this time of year, Mr. Kris Kringle’s his big thing. So if you want the best Santa in Hollywood and you live near L.A., send me an email and I’ll see if he and his fat pad are available. (I’ll find out if I can post his booking info here to make it easier. Check back later.)
I LOVE IT! The look on “Santa’s” face is hilarious… and I love the colors of this strip! Great job Jefbot! Happy Holiday’s too!
thanks, funnyshaffer. happy holidays back atcha!
Is there any YouTube vids of Michael as Santa? I’d love to see ‘em.
i’ll ask Michael, but as far as i know there are no videos of him as santa on youtube. i was lucky enough to see santa, live, last friday when he made an appearance at a party i was at. the kids were freaking out with joy. i took a bunch of pictures. i’ll post them to the blog soon.
Can you book just the fat pad? That would be worth it for the blank stares on your guests’ faces. Great job, dude!
i’ll suggest that to michael the next time he goes out on a santa gig!
uhm. i didn’t book the cupcake kid. but he’s here. and he’s dressed like santa. i think i smell bourbon on him. he’s wandering around my apartment looking for the chimney. i’m afraid to move.
don’t make any sudden movements, but if you can reach your phone, call 911. CALL 911!!!
haha, want a fat pad! redundancy is awesome!
ha! wear it with pride, man!
ahhh, hahahahhahahah, hahahahhaha!!!! i wanta be on the naughty list too!!!!
i think you’ve done enough “naughty” to make the list for the next several decades, Xin!
This is very funny, I love the “oops” look of jefbot & cornfather on the 2nd panel. Hey when are you going to do more strips on the sister with the pigtails? Those are my favorites! Does she ever do anything evil or bad like your other sister? Cuz, that would be cool…
Lor will be in many future strips for sure, stellak. while not nearly as bad or naughty as xinda (is anyone?), Lor brings her own flavor of craziness to the family.
hahahaha, man! this is too good! good job!
thanks, alecho! glad you got a laugh out of it!!!
Two things.
First. Jefe, that was harsh, man. Brutal, even. And second, belt goes below the fat pad… every fat kid knows that.
heheh. sometimes there’s no way to say, “you really don’t need a fat pad anymore” without being brutal, eleventeen. maybe hallmark will figure that one out.
The belt only goes OVER the fat pad if you’re dressing as a pregnant Mrs. Claus.
i’m sure Michael can be booked for that character, too, Stan!
I can totally picture you and the cornfather having this interaction.
if you pictured it a little less funny than the strip, and a little more uncomfortable, you nailed it, seth6!
Wow. I don’t know what to say. Great work, bot: the colors, the expressions on the characters’ faces, and the dialogue is amazing. I do have a naughty list. On my naughty list, if you’re over 25, the naughtier you are, the bigger the present. =P
thanks, Michael! glad you have a sense of humor about these things. hahaha! heheh. heh. don’t hurt me.
WOW. Maybe I’ll get a car or jewelry…..yummy. Thank you C-Father!
don’t sell yourself short, sis. if Michael’s naughty list is true, you’ll be getting a yacht or a house!!! hahaha! heheh. heh. don’t hurt me.
I have so done that to a couple of people….HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
uh-oh. looks like you’re on the naughty list too, Eptha.
Mr. Bot….Stumbled on to your webcomic yesterday. Have now read first to last.
Possibly the funniest webcomic I’ve run across in my jaded years; probably because my family bears absolutely no resemblance to yours, but we would recognize each others clans in the wild.
Regards…
wow! what an awesome compliment, estiveo. thanks! now that you’ve read the archives, i hope you stick with us as we head into 2009 and beyond!!! oh, and if our clans do pass each other in the wild, make sure to say hi.
oh man, THIS IS GREAT
thanks, Jazzy K!
why indeed… the great mystery of the earth
heheheh. i believe it’s one mystery that need not be solved, JefbotFan#300.
Ha, just noticed the second panel has a black and white background, gives it that extra shock value.
Have a good yin all!!
just what i was going for. thanks for noticing, Mr Mojo!

I love it. Best Second Panel ever. I dare anyone to find a better second panel of any comic anywhere.
wow, thanks Lisa! i hope no one takes you up on that dare but i appreciate it nonetheless.
That second panel’s his face! Jefbot’s got everyone’s expressions down.
Wow, Mike’s Santa picture is perfect. He’s got the rosy cheeks and everything.
Michael, if you’re reading this, know that I would greatly appreciate your aid in battling the ‘Hunky Santa’ with a ‘Hot Hanukkah Harry.’
We’re so underrepresented….
