Knowledge is Money

August 21st, 2009

This is the first comic in a long time… It also doubles as an entry into poorerthanyou.com’s “Better Together: HP Laptop Bundle Giveaway“. The main concept is that knowledge is “money”. If you educate yourself about the credit system and methods to get out of debt, you will be better off in the long run.

Of course, if you are a keen personal finance person, you might notice some of the personalities that are in the comic ;).

Laptop in Bed

Several months ago, there was an XKCD comic called Morning Routine. It is the original inspiration for this comic. I started to think about when I end up sleeping with my laptop in bed. It’s when I’m alone, and usually only when I am feeling pretty lonely.

It’s kind of a painful reminder, isn’t it?

Distance

Finally back to drawing. It’s been a rough few weeks with my girlfriend on the west coast, so I decided to draw about what I feel. I suppose that’s what art is about, right?

It’s painful learning that *hug* just isn’t the same as the real thing.

Steve Jobs Announcement Fallout

This comic sums it up. Steve Jobs makes an announcement, people go crazy for no good reason.

I suppose this is about right, although, I embellished it a little. I highly doubt there would be nukes dropped.

Reminder of Week 10 at RIT

High quality art this time. Clearly.

Of course, I could have spent the time I spent on this, ya know, doing real work. Thanks RIT for the inspiration for this comic. Actually, I would have been much better off without this inspiration I suppose.

Not going to lie, I can’t believe I am even posting this horribly geeky joke.

Yeah. I went there. Thanks Matthew and Dan for the inspiration to do a binary joke.

Entrance Exam

April 3rd, 2008

So, I am pretty sure, if I was presented this exam right before I decided to come to grad school, I might have thought twice.

I find that every week or so I mentally take this test. Trying to balance all three becomes quite difficult.

RIT’s Dilemma

To learn more about why this comic was drawn, look at RIT’s new policy regarding professors.

Alright. Finally I drew another comic. The quality is down, but intentionally… since I think drawing non-stick figure penises may be considered inappropriate.

Overall this comic is a critique of the current situation here at RIT about the push to become a more research oriented university and the decision that Ph. D’s are required for professors here.

I promise my next comic won’t be stick figures, but I can’t guarantee no penises ;)

Change the World

Sometimes I wish I could change the world as easily as I can change a computer program.

I don’t think the time will ever come that we can do this to change the world… However, I will always hope there will be new releases every few weeks that make more progress and make it better.

Thanks Elvis for the concept.

Perhaps the insert script failed..

So, some people get all hyped up about Valentines day… other people don’t.

This comic is for the database geek that got all excited and swept up, and then realized the truth. Yes, I used most of the art for the last one, but give me a break! Finals are coming up!

Sometimes it just isn’t there. If it’s only there around February 14th… maybe it isn’t real :-P
