Cheating in the medium, BUT I have been drawing dialogue-free comics of my mundane days for a long time:

I'm sorry but your comic has depressed me.

haha Louis, I don't know what that is but I like it.

― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 22 March 2007 00:11 (eighteen years ago)

It looks very far from mundane, whatever it is. I am glad that that, whatever it is, is the scenario from his life that Louis decided to paint.

why is that man flying (or falling from the sky) above?

― dice in my pockets, Thursday, 22 March 2007 01:26 (eighteen years ago)

n.b. - 'twas not a drawing of the experience itself but a representation of the thoughts it inspired, the experience being pure, undiluted mundanity.

― unfished business, Thursday, 22 March 2007 01:39 (eighteen years ago)

I started to mspaint myself being bored reading the appeals cases I'm reading and then realized how depressing it was to procrastinate my work that way.

― Hurting 2, Thursday, 22 March 2007 01:56 (eighteen years ago)

I like the self-portrait Trayce. The inner reality of your thoughts in your own handwriting contrast nicely with the nonsense and confusion of modern office life as typified by second in the typeface hegemony, Arial. Also your have pritty red hair.

― Abbott, Thursday, 22 March 2007 02:10 (eighteen years ago)

Your comic is really good, btw!

― Hurting 2, Thursday, 22 March 2007 02:14 (eighteen years ago)

Thanks Mister Sequel, assuming you were referring to me, which I think is actually pretty obvious!

― Abbott, Thursday, 22 March 2007 02:17 (eighteen years ago)

There's at least one great detail in every frame - 1) A fragment of the word "success" on the wall 2) Contrast between woman at board w/ditzy self-confidence and your own dilligence/quiet resignation, 3) Dashboard dude (semi-lifeless, moved only by external forces), 4) Melancholic look on your face as you put on Trans-Europe Express 5)The precise slouch of your back 6) Not so much a specific detail, but the cross-legged reading against the wall -- oh, the loneliness of it kills me. It makes me want to jump into the last frame and read next to the character for the sake of company.

― Hurting 2, Thursday, 22 March 2007 02:21 (eighteen years ago)

Awww...I am glad you recognized the TEE. I was really proud I drew the thing 1.25" tall so successfully.

― Abbott, Thursday, 22 March 2007 02:23 (eighteen years ago)

Thanks Abbott :D

Or perhaps he is beating off in the corner?

― iiiijjjj, Thursday, 22 March 2007 03:03 (eighteen years ago)

i'm the one opening the door, not the one on the toilet.

I dont know what it is about people who dont realize that they should check to see if there is a lock on the door upon entering a one-shitter. A lock that turns a "vacant" sign to an "occupied" sign.

― g®▲Ðұ, Thursday, 22 March 2007 03:11 (eighteen years ago)

You've really captured the highly comical expression of wide-eyed and open-mouthed alarm.

pix #13: "gather around kids. this is what we call an LED, a love emitting diode. the spirits like these flashing guys, but be careful, they break and create a really high impedance that'll fry your data pathways."

(god, my captions are cheesy. but i figured circuit kids visiting a radio shack zoo was fairly mundane.)

Sorry I was so ign'rnt re: sign, the Grayds, but English is like my 8th language and I have never been in a boys bathroom so for all I know they're squirting ecto-cooler out of the urethras in there.

Not sure if this is really mundane, since it was a definitely a shock to me when it happened, but this is the pic of the day I was opening a window which fell out of its casing, toppling a large clay flower pot onto my head. I was actually not naked at the time, but I am in the drawing.

In a very general definition of the word "draw", I suppose. Thanks!

Freaky. I was thinking about this thread yesterday while I was waiting for new version of msgr to download through shitty slow-arse dial-up and started drawing, but gave up because I have little to no artistic talent.

Mac peeps can get in on the action for free with PaintBrush or Seashore. PaintBrush is probably more MS Paintlike, tho.

― libcrypt, Sunday, 30 March 2008 19:32 (seventeen years ago)

oooh, nice. I've just been using photoshop but restricting myself to the pencil function. I'll check PaintBrush out.

meaning the butt part, obvious. haha.

Nice black curtains, lib.

― Pleasant Plains, Sunday, 30 March 2008 23:03 (seventeen years ago)

Well, the butt part is admittedly unique, but people bugging the hell out of me is just part of the day-to-day, I'm afraid.

Lib, when you re-do your wedding vows, eventually - don't put that on your invitations - though that would be a bit funny.

― csa, Sunday, 30 March 2008 23:44 (seventeen years ago)

Those black curtains are great! They are velvet and rubberized or something on the other side so that they keep out light well past crack of noon.

Wife also laughed at that line when I showed her then she pulled out usual bullwhip and made me sorry for sexist crack.
