Sorry everyone
Well... yesterday was the first update I've missed. I was notified around lunch that I didn't have anything up. Then it slowly sunk in that it was Wednesday. I did actually know it was Wednesday, I just didn't realize I was supposed to have a comic up. The holiday threw me. I even had a comic written and sketched out, just not inked, colored and lettered, and unfortunately a lunch break is not long enough to do that.
Again, I apologize to all my readers. I forgot. There's now a cron set up to email me and remind me... Thank you faithful reader...
So yeah, on the way back from Digital Overload, our plane was running late, and we had a pretty short window to catch our next flight which was across the airport. We also had not eaten yet. Luckily for us, there was food across from the gate, so we did not starve, like one could starve on a flight.
In my years of travel, I have noticed that there are several types of people who act as a barrier when trying to exit a plane, and their behavior does not change, no matter what the announcement.
- The people that will push anyone down to get out first. These people unbuckle and standup before the little seat belt light clicks off, as if the 10 feet gained is going to help them out in life.
- The people who hog the aisle to take out a piece of luggage from the overhead compartment that has been crammed in there so tight, because it's 3 times the size if should be, that it's actually melded with the plastic and metal of the airplane.
- The people that feel they need to go to the back of the plane for their overhead luggage, even though they are at the front, and everyone is still on the plane between them and their luggage.
- And lastly, the people that are traveling with friends and decide to talk and distract each other while standing in the isle.
If you defeat all of them, or sit and wait, like I normally do, then you to may exit the plane.
User comics
As some of you may remember, a little while ago (here actually), I asked for user submissions for the text of a comic. It turns out a bunch of you have a decent funny bone in ya'z, so here are five of them. This was fun, I'll probably do it again some time.
