I Shoulda Known: Velvet Crushed

So, Lora asked people to share their red flags with her last week and you guys certainly stepped up to the plate. Well, my sister and I were talking about it recently and she casually dropped some red flags that she wished she would have heeded and--I'm not kidding--they were insanely hysterical. And, the best part? She seemed clueless at how mind-bendingly outrageous these red flags were, like it didn't occur to her how strange they were until she said them out loud.

So, I've decided to illustrate her red flags of boyfriends past. It's part "Deep Thoughts With Jack Handey" and part "Right Now" aka the artsy fartsy video from Sammy Hagar-era Van Halen. Here's the first in the series.



Have your own I Shoulda Knowns? Send 'em to me at hi@shmittenkitten.com. If they make me hold my sides in laughter, I might illustrate them, too.

I should have known when you said: "Oh, the French Revolution! That was the one with King Arthur, right?"

I should have known when you said: "I don't like having people sleep next to me. I usually meditate before going to bed."

I should have known when you started singing MJ's "Heal the World" while we were strolling downtown on our first date, because, in your words "He meant the world to every musician like I am."

And these were just the highlights of the past year;)

I should have known when on our second date she said "Oh, well just so you know, I'm not interested in dating anyone right now."
