I hold grudges the way the Statue of Liberty holds her torch. I think Roz Chast has a new fan.

I got to sit on a couch with Roz Chast once a few years ago and tell her how much I love her! And I felt like we were kindred spirits! We both knew what antimacassars were! It was awesome.

@Bryn: I too love Roz Chast, and also know what an antimacassar is (nerd joy)!

I love her cartoons almost as much as I love my grudges.

Almost.

I love love love her! I posted the NYtimes piece to my FB but no one commented on it. She makes me LOL out loud.

I love grudges. I like creating non-important drama because it gets it out of my system in a way that doesn't affect any of my actually important relationships.

I have a huge grudge against the woman who "stole" the dude I was casually dating two summers ago (she swooped when I moved abroad--can you believe that whore?). I call her my "nemesis" in conversation. Usually it just makes everyone laugh.

Love Roz, love my grudges. It's the only part of my Italian upbringing that I nurture. That and a mean ragu.

@hussein persepolis hussein: It's one of the only parts of my Italian-ness that I try to squelch. Besides, my husband is a good enough grudge holder for the both of us.

Her drawing style kind of reminds me of Lynda Barry's. I like her already.

@flexanimous: This happened to me, too, but the little interloper was SUCCESSFUL in her efforts. Still a bit bitter. I'm glad I'm not the only one who was semi-scarred by this--- I want my birthday wish back!

@HeyThat'sMyBike: I still hold a grudge to my kindergarden teacher who said I couldn't be a ballerina, and that I had to be a bear in the play.

I worry about people who I used to know and things I might have said to them 15 years ago. And then say the right things to them in my head. I like this RoZ person.
