Watson, Esther Pearl – Unlovable #3

Website

Unlovable #3 Now Available! $5

Christ, what a horrific young woman. “Unlovable” indeed. Granted, these stories are all taken from a diary that Esther found in a rest stop and probably didn’t have pictures for us to figure out exactly what she looked like, but Esther really would have a hard time making her any uglier. In this edition Tammy gets repeated prank calls, attends the winter ball while only shaving the lower half of her legs, “deals” with her best friend spreading rumors about her, watches a crazed classmate talk to himself in a mirror (even though he knows she’s there) and pukes after drinking too much spiked punch at the dance. Oh, and the poetry, how could I forget the poetry. I’m still hoping this diary is 1000 pages long, as this is nothing but endless, mean-spirited fun. I do wonder though: has anybody ever tried to contact Tammy Pierce, if that is her real name? She appears to be in late middle school in 1988, so she’s an adult now. What the hell is she up to and what would she think about this diary being reproduced like this? Sounds like a good idea for a sequel if all this material ever dries up… $5
