  02-16-03 - Break it down
  Sorry, but there won't be a comic this week. It's that time again where my numerous projects take precedence over doing  the weekly project. Except this time I won't just quit making the comics for the rest of the semester. Instead I'll work on each one during my free time and post them on the weekend.  Hopefully the comic will be posted by next week, but until then I must finish my impending projects.  Until then, go entertain yourself for once...

 

02-09-03 - Taking out the trash
     
Nothing much to rant about today other than the fact that in my suite we never know who's turn it is to take out the trash. This is actually a regular occurrence in my suite (the arguing, not the living garbage).  My roommates and I will belittle each other until someone finally takes gives in and removes the garbage.  Last semester we had a system where we take turns in order of age, but we could never remember who took it out previously so the system stopped working about midway through the semester.  What amazes me is how quickly the garbage fills up.  It almost seems like people from other rooms come in just to throw away their garbage.  And once the garbage is full that is when the war begins.  Each one of us will yell and insult the others while we try to convince ourselves that it's not our turn to remove the trash. Of course it's all in good fun, we never seriously insult each other and everything is one large joke.  We also seem to call each other names that in no way apply to anyone in the suite (the "screw you hippie" is a good example of this).
