Here is a new strip, and ,if you've ever grown tired of computer error messages then, this one is for you.

Have a great day!

7. Say No To Crack.

Hey again!

To help make up for vacation induced tardy comic posting, here is another strip.

It was inspired by a discussion about the "Butt-Crack Correlation" which states that the amount of butt-crack peeking out of ones pants is directly proportional to the amount of success he or she has and inversely proportional to the amount of time it takes for said success to be had.

I have taken the time to illustrate this for you.  Proceed with caution.

6. That's Right, I Said It.

Hey all!

Well, vacation is done and now we are ready for vacation.  

It's funny how that works.

We had a super great time and to commemorate the awesomeness, here is a strip commemorating the very first thing that happened at the airport before we left.

5. Colorado VS Illinois, Part 1.

Hello my friends!

Every year my wife and I take a vacation to Colorado.  It is one of our favorite places on the planet.  We love it super a lot.

Well, in honor of our impending vacation (end of this month, yay and things!) I present to you a completely impartial presentation of the things that are awesome in Colorado vs Illinois.

And to answer your question for later, yes, it's all (cough cough) true.

4. Sophisticated Humor

Greetings!

This week I started a Twitter account.  Apparently I'm a slow adopter.  But, in case you are interested you can find me at SecondSmartestMonkey @2smonkey.

In honor of this astounding moment in history, I've made a comic about how it all went down.

Enjoy!

2. It's Funny When It Happens To Someone Else.

Here is my second strip.  Like the first one, this is also a true story.  Every word.  Ok, not every word.  Not even most of the words.  However, a real conversation between father and son took place.  And just so you know that not everything I do involves poopy noises or genitals, I promise to write a comic strip that doesn't have either of those.  However, this one does, and, if you are a parent, this was probably one of your many fears surrounding this conversation.  Or hopes.  It just depends on how creepy you are.

This was actually my first real "experiment" which is evident in the art looking more rough than the last post.  If I keep posting in reverse chronological order, soon I will just be smearing pudding on the screen and asking for my sippy cup.

1. But It Doesn't Smell Like It.

Hello everyone, and welcome to my very first web comic!

For those of you who have followed my other blog, Life Lessons:  The Further Adventures of a Perpetual Idiot, you sort of know how I think by now.

Or do you...?  Muhahahaha!!

Um, I mean, you do.

If you have not, feel free to check it out.  Don't worry, I'll wait.  No no, I insist.  Ok, you don't have to do that right now.  

Now for more important things.  Here is some stuff you should know about this web comic listed in order of no particular order.

1.  It's about life.  And stuff.

2.  Many (if not most) will be based upon events that actually occurred.  That's right.  Real life.  I will try to tell you if it is or is not.  But typically, they will be.

3.  This means that if someone has a funny story or idea, it could become a comic.

4.  All people portrayed will be left anonymous.  So, if you like the idea of #3, well, now you know.

5.  My style will probably be in flux.  You see, I'm actually a trained artist.  Yes, I know... you probably are not convinced of this just by looking at my art.  Here is the issue I've had.  I am trying to use some high tech art thingies (that's the technical term) with which to make said comic.  However, I have discovered that I am functionally learning to draw all over again.  So, over time, the style may change, and hopefully the quality will also.  Connected to quality, I'm struggling with the balance of file size and image quality.  I'm getting closer but I'm tired of waiting till I get it perfect to start doing art again.  So, I appreciate your patience.

6.  This is an important one.  (also known as "Warning") The content of these comics will be more... loose... than my other blog.  This doesn't mean your kids can't read it, but it does mean that maybe you should check first.  If your child is old enough to find these comics funny, they are probably old enough to be having conversations about the subject matter.  But, just in case you are a parent who hasn't had the bigger talks of life with your kids (or are hopping to never do so), perhaps you should double check so that you don't yell at me later and force me to politely ignore you.  (I would never ignore you.  Ok, I would totally ignore you, but I still think you are super cool.)  You've been warned.

Once I figure out this page layout better (one would think I would know what I'm doing... ha, fools...), I will keep these lists and warnings front and center so no one is surprised.

And now, without further whatever, my first posted web comic ever which also happens to be based on a legit Facebook post.

Enjoy!
