Got to make this comic a reality recently! I tried some temporary tattoo pens from Inkbox so I can wash it off in two weeks. How many of these designs can you recognize? 45 - Tattoo #comics #tattoo

I honestly don't remember what I was trying to say with this one. Parking sucks though. 44 - parking problems #comics

Belated happy new year! I really don't know why I stopped labeling the comics in my archive, I have no idea what any of these were originally titled 43 - morning routine? #comics

Almost certain I traced the Picard face palm for this reaction 42 - Board games go badly: Sherlock Holmes Clue #comics

My taste in music hasn't changed much since I drew this comic all those years ago 41 - music taste #comics

I learned how to animate (poorly) for this gag 40 - How it really works: Hair #comics

Thought I posted last week but looks like I missed one. 39 - Food truck #comics

This joke only makes sense if you've ever tried microwaving margarine, it turns into water 38 - honestly I don't remember what this one was called and it's not in my archive #comics

Unfortunate name but that is not my problem 37 - Friday Problems #comics

Because I set arbitrary deadlines for myself I was usually scrambling for ideas and I'm pretty sure this was just a thinly veiled rant disguised as a comic 36 - Social Media Posts #comics

Great timing on this one as I'm going through the archives. I still don't know when I made this one but interesting that it came up now... 35 - Vaccines #comics

I don't know when this one originally came out but it's seasonally appropriate 34 - Scarf Styles #comics

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that's why I draw comics about my company time Third panel could have used some punch up, any suggestions? 33 - Review #comics

Actually that's an amazing album cover, really knocked it out of the park 32 - Business #comics

My experience with @netflix.com disc service was always one of opportunity: when I had the opportunity to finally watch the disc they made it available for streaming, eliminating the need to ever get discs. This comic was definitely more relevant a few years ago... 31 - How it works: movies #comics

Issues with the system? No, it's just breakfast burrito day. Your problems can wait 30 - Of Champions #comics

This probably needs to be updated with more current references, but reader, I assure you this was funny when I wrote it 29 - Resume Writing Tips #comics

The "worst case scenario" is actually pretty bad #comics 28 - System Update

Ultimately decided to get back to drawn comics rather than edited real-life pictures, I think the results were better Do you think he got the job? 27 - the interview

Borderlands taught me that all Dubstep is just the word "wub" over and over again. I think this might be the last comic where I tried drawing over a photo (I hope it is anyway, yikes) Also I think I can confidently say this comic was from 2/14/2014 from the title #comics 26 - Valentine's Day 2014

Good idea but poor execution on this one. I tried a new technique of actual pictures and drawing over the top, I'm glad I eventually switched back to just drawing 25 - Math! #comics #math #problems

I got into this bad habit of setting deadlines for myself instead of just making comics when I had good ideas and motivation. This led to burnout and hiatus so this was a "comeback" comic. 24 - Clear away the Tumbleweeds #comics

Boy, this sure aged like milk: @netflix.com recently made an adaptation and it's worth watching 23 - Required reading #comics #100yearsofsolitude #arresteddevelopment

A recurring joke was the idea that I was late posting comics for various reasons but really it came down to assigning an arbitrary deadline to make them. Now I'm just posting the archives so there's no rush to make new ones until I run out 22 - Pants on Fire #comics

More graph jokes! 21 - Unacceptable #comics

I think the arm in the dumpster belongs to Bigfoot, I can't remember what all the references were supposed to be though. 20 - answers #comic

This one technically isn't mine, a friend made it and he's not wrong. Shout out to @spasianninja.bsky.social for the guest post #comics

The idea behind this one was explaining that the best way to draw a hand is to just trace a turkey. How often do my comics make sense? Not often (dot com) 19 - behind the scenes: how to draw a hand #comics

Unbelievably, this comic made sense in my mind when I created it. 18 Pranks part 2: retaliation #comics

By far my best comic, 17 "literature". I also listen to music by doctors (spin and Dre) #comics #books

Game night explained: this is how dice actually work. There were a few ideas I had for this series, I think we'll see some in the future. Comic 16: how it really works: dice #comics #dice #badscience

I thought of the second part of this comic first but wanted to give some context for it so this is the beginning of the prank war. Then I couldn't figure out how to do the second part so you won't see the conclusion for a couple of weeks, sorry! Comic 15 Pranks part 1: escalation #comics #pranks

Board games slowly became a larger part of my life after this comic. This gag of playing board games with the wrong people shows up again later and I have more ideas for the future. Comic 14 board games go badly: Scrabble with Snoop Dogg from forever ago #comics #boardgames

Ad revenue would pay the bills if I actually got sponsored, instead I just have a comic dreaming about that sweet, sweet branding money. Number 13 Monetized, not sure when this one originally aired but it was more than a decade ago I'm sure #comics #webcomics #monetized #adrevenue

My friend has a plumbing business and I thought of him when I made this, #12 Plumbing Still no idea when these were from but it was a while ago that's for sure #comics #webcomics #plumbing

In comic strip 11 - Sports! I had an idea that was funnier than its execution; the team "the doppelgangers" would be indistinguishable from any team they played against, causing confusion. Possibly a winning strategy though #comics #webcomics #sports #football #doppleganger

The overlap between "my comic ideas" and "fart jokes" should have been drawn larger #comics #webcomics #graphs #farts

This was one of my best one-panel gags. Still going through the archives, if you're keeping score this is #9 - Toasted, originally posted idk a while ago? #comics #pizza

Usually these strips would have some meaning or joke, this one I specifically remember wanting to use a wonder twin powers gag and this is what happened. I also forgot about the guy carving stairs into the handicapped ramps, that's classic. #comics #webcomics #superheroes

Before I embraced the "cartoon" nature of a comic strip I tried to draw different real life shirts that I owned. That got too tedious but I still like that little detail about the old comics. This one is about health! #comics #webcomics #mayonnaise

Going through the archives still, this comic never fails to inspire me. #comics #throwback #iceicebaby

I made too many comics about being lazy and not making comics. It was funny at first but not super proud of this trend #comics #procrastination #throwback

Being a blood donor means I am superior to all of you who don't donate. That being said I haven't donated in a bit because I got a tattoo last year but I have another appointment next week. #comics #blooddonor

A fart joke appears! The third comic I ever drew, it was not inspired by real events: I never drove that car. I called this comic "windy city heat" after the movie of the same name, though I've never seen it. Stay tuned every Wednesday for more! #comics #webcomics #throwback

Missing context for this one: it was a big deal that the hobbit movie was released in high frame rate or something? Idk but it almost made sense at the time. Stay tuned for weekly rerelease comics!

I used to make comics. Maybe I still do, but I definitely used to, too.
