Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!
Rules:
-
Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.
-
Single panels are preferred.
-
Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.
-
Don't be a dick.

I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

Did you go insane, though? It sounds like you skipped that vital step.
Can’t go where you already are. 😉
Kidding. Actually, I’ve been in therapy since July 2023, and I’ve learned a lot about coping with my solitude. Plus I have a dog, and I get to spend the other half of my time with my kids.
It also helps that I sleep a lot. 😁
Yeah I don't think that counts as alone a dog equals at least two humans.
Busted! ☺️
Every single day.
Same. It's all I've ever wanted.
In my early 20s I wanted that. I even tried to do it. If I learned anything from that experience, it's a) Your peace of mind is worthless without a community to share it with, and b) You can run away from anything, anywhere, and anyone, but not from yourself. You end up learning that no matter where you are or what you're doing, you're still going to have to live with yourself, and that's the ultimate challenge of life.
No matter where you are, there you are.
Truth
I don't want to be alone, but living in the middle of fucking nowhere with my wife and a solid internet connection would be heaven.
Then you end up like Gene Hackman
Is that Ted K?
Either way, new phone wallpaper
Ohh I like this one
