When I was a kid there was a constant fight between those who preferred the Eskimo Pie and those who preferred the Dream Bar. If you were headed to the grocery store, you knew you had to make a claim for your favorite or else be forced eating ice cream that didn’t exactly fit your personal taste. Oh, the many inhumanities we suffer in this day and age.
I always like the idea of self-repairing technology. I think many people believe nanites already live inside of their TV and computer and will fix them on their own. For example, I have been asked before, “My computer died, so do you think I should do anything?” Or what? Let it continue to be dead? No, at least give it a proper burial at sea.
Science classes would probably grab more student attention if they were put into the terms of a soap opera. I’ll leave it to you to think of your own dirty science spinoff of Downton Abbey.
Aren’t the elements in the first panel kind of cute? Except for Nitrogen, what’s up with that guy?
One supposes if God worries about keeping his job, he has to build in some manner of keeping himself important. He’s not building new planets and stars (that we know of), so He must be crafting new souls. And yes, that is another comic rationale that I’m sure can offend both sides of the issue. Let’s sit back and watch the comments!
The workplace fridge is one of the most disgusting sites on earth. The smell that emanates from it is enough to make dogs tuck tail and run. I suspect the image many of us have of Hell as molten rock and fire is way off base. Hell is a giant workplace fridge you can never escape from.
What if the Bible stories are all actually true, but simply have minor factual errors? Like it was a bear in the Garden of Eden, or a giraffe that swallowed Noah? There’s a market out there for an alternate-reality Bible. That should suffice in angering everyone who reads it.
I actually see this go on a lot among college students. Female students complain their boyfriends are only interested in playing video games when they come over. Some might see that as a choice, but I think far more often they’re simply oblivious. That’s fine as long as they’re happy being oblivious.
Really, this comic is nothing against the Higher Learning Commission. They’re one of those organizations that strike fear into the hearts of those above my pay grade. No, it’s much more about the incredibly rising prices in higher education. Trust me, it isn’t simply an issue of greed (though greed is always there in some form).
Running a college is super expensive, and what students expect on campus is super expensive. Fancy dorms, fine dining in the dining hall, and state-of-the-art sports facilities all cost money. Is there a breaking point? Sure. I simply have no idea when we’ll hit it. I’d bet on sooner rather than later, however.
There really is a notable lack of quality ninja literature. This should be a concern in more English departments. I should bring this up more often.
Mock climate change deniers, mention God, and make everyone angry all in one strip! Seriously, there are simply some truths that are bewildering to see people still in denial over. The recent backlash against birth control is so strange. Unless you’re a family of twenty with your own reality show, pretty much every family in America uses birth control. This shouldn’t even be a debate.
