Part of the Duncan zine explosion, Fribby’s Don’t Go In the Barn is vinegar flavoured cotton candy, it melts in your mouth, soft friendly consistency, your tongue puckers to a sour crater. Comic ruminations on life as a first year U. Vic student give way to a confession of loneliness and a lack of food. Stick with it Frib. (Can I call you Frib?) There’s something about higher education that melds nicely with the sort of elevated despair that can be the inspiration for things like the make your own naughty word chart – bitch-butter!, butt-chunk! So when you’re depressed because your far from home, alone, and learning things that seem to be of negligible value, just think of what you’ve already given to the world. Atari fever! Poo-bag! Brought to you from the woman who thinks “only pervs go to the circus”. (HN)
