Website of the Week
Once a week I thought I’d feature a website that’s just doing something for the sheer fuck and love of it. So please don’t send me links to your band’s website or your blog for this. But if you know of someone doing something fun and/or wacky, please email me the link and it might just end up the Website of the Week! (Like that’s a big fucking deal!)
This Weeks Website: The Angriest Dog in the World
Flimmaker David Lynch did this comic strip for nine years (1983-1992) and it’s probably my all time favorite comic strip. The strip was always the same image of the world’s angriest dog straining at his leash and growling. The introduction was always the same too: “The dog who is so angry he cannot move. He cannot eat. He cannot sleep. He can just barely growl.”
Lynch conceived the strip in 1973 after experiencing a time of great anger in his life, so he projected his feelings onto the angriest dog in the world. The idea finally went into fruition in 1983 in the L.A. Reader and slowly it was published in other weeklies and alternative publications until 1992. It’s one of those things that people seem to either love or hate, but personally I love it! The only thing that changed week to week was the dialogue coming from the inside of the house.
