I Could Use Some Help

You ever have one of those days where you screw everything up? That's been my day.

This one is late because I forgot to hit post when I finished it.

Marvin 10/27/09

1. Marvin is an infant and clearly not capable of using a computer with such ease.

2. All dairy products come from the same source if you go back far enough.



Funky Winkerbean 10/27/09

That cop is being really passive-aggressive. Which is weird, usually cops are just aggressive.
And you'd think he'd be really aggressive since he's forced to appear in Funky Winkerbean. He might as well start shooting because he'll be crippled or catch a rare disease or just plain die soon anyway.



Todd the Dinosaur 10/27/09

Is it really necessary to put HEFTY on the bag? Would anyone be confused if it wasn't there? I'm actually more confused because it is there. Does Todd get a kickback from Hefty? That'd be a weird product placement deal.



9 to 5 10/27/09

theendisnear.com doesn't have any of those things. It's a pretty crappy use of such a great domain name.



Bozo 10/27/09

Bobbing for apples isn't all that fun. I can't imagine it would be anymore fun with the entire future of humanity hanging in the balance. Which would be weird because if you didn't get one humans don't have to leave Paradise and if you did get one we end up with the crappy world we have today. So why would you even try?

Plenty of Tongue

It's the last day of September. Only 86 more days 'till Christmas! Better start shopping now or you'll never get done.


The Boiling Point 9/30/09

Why is he shitting in the woods? Is he the Pope or something?



Bozo 9/30/09

This is one of subtlest jokes I've seen. I think most people that aren't English majors will miss it.



The Last Kiss 9/30/09

The last panel was subtle, but this one shouts the joke at you.

That's one reason I like The Last Kiss, it isn't afraid to put the punchline right in front of you. I'm not sure how it manages to get bestiality jokes past an editor though.

It Doesn't Matter

Wednesday is upon us. Rejoice at the passing of Hump day!

Bozo 9/23/09

Nothing negative to say, I just wanted to share a subtle joke. Do you get it?



Brewster Rockit 9/23/09

Awesome. Although, wouldn't a pacifier of energy hurt?



Ziggy 9/23/09

Is this Ziggy's way of saying that that comics page needs him? Because I'm pretty sure that it doesn't. Just because something has been around forever doesn't make it essential. Sometimes things are supposed to go extinct.



Wee Pals 9/23/09

How are chocolate and vanilla the same under the surface? If you dig down, chocolate is still brown and vanilla is still white. They don't taste the same under the surface either. I'm all for equality of race and everything, but you need to make sure your analogies make sense.

If Only I Had A Book Deal

In this post I get offended by a comic and then defend my position. It isn't very funny, unless you hate me or something then it might be funny.

But don't leave just yet! There are other comics that I do write funny things about. Well, they aren't that funny, but more funny than the one that I got mad at.

B.C. 8/26/09

I don't think a regular person would train their dog to maim. And I really don't think that 'maim' would be the word they would use. I'm thinking it would be something along the lines of 'kill' or 'attack' or perhaps 'get the homo'(exclusively for use in Texas) but maybe that's just the way I would do it.



The Boiling Point 8/26/09

I didn't give this one much thought when I first saw it but it stuck with me. I think it's because of the generalization of bloggers as people just trying to get rich and famous. I'm not going to say that we don't want to be rich and famous, but I don't think that most bloggers have that as their main goal. It would be stupid to think that millions of people want to hear about your life so much that they would pay for it.

I can't speak for the countless bloggers out there, but I mostly do this because I enjoy it. It's nice to see that other people like what I write or even that they hate it enough to make a comment, but it isn't really necessary. The other blog I do rarely gets more than 10 views a day and I'm still updating that one because it's a labor of love, I'm not in it for the money. If I was, I would have quit by now because I haven't made any.



Bozo 8/26/09

I don't have any commentary on this comic, I just enjoyed it because it's clever.

RIP Twitter

You'll get only two comics today and you'll like it.


It's All About You 8/10/09

It's official, Twitter has jumped the shark. Nearly every comic strip has mentioned it which means that we can now begin searching for the next big thing is social networking. Any ideas?

It's funny because accountants are unemployed. It's not funny because that isn't true. And it would have made more sense back in April before Goldman Sachs announced earnings of over $3 billion.
