Show Notes: S05, E05 - How Do I Deal With Unsolicited Advice?
On this week's episode of Agony Art, we're giving our pickles advice on how to reject advice, teaching you how to protect your personal space, and dealing with annoying colleagues. And we're doing this with great art like Liar Liar, MC Hammer, Percy Jackson, Fight Club, and much, much more.
Here's all the art we recommended.
