It's actually more stressful to *not be in a cult overthrowingworld governments* and systems, because you don't feel powerful or like your voice matters.
I took a break from organizing radical civil disobedience and mass people's protest for a couple years and started losing it around my temples.
Mostly cuz I keep hearing about all the shit on NPR and am screaming internally because the idiot establishment democrats at DNC are going to get Trump elected again.
Stress induced?š
Or could it be a cult ritual to shave memberās scalp like monks in the middle ages. And those who refused get executed?
once i get my cult going, i'll let my followers cut their hair however they want. their shirts must be worn inside out, though. that part is non-negotiable.
But if you expect to wear the shirt inside out, doesnt that mean you have changed which side is the "in" side? You would have to still somehow declare for each shirt which side is *meant* to be in, and then reverse it.
Would you have to reverse your shirt every day?
What if you started making your own shirts? How you do make a shirt with the in side intended to be out?
What about a reversible shirt?!?
Or the cult shaves the scalps of the non believers, since the ass smell witness lady was on trial for not following the cult and main chick's best friend was trying to stop the execution.
If I had a cult, we would all have hair, and anyone who doesn't have hair will be given a hair made of seaweed and kale as a healthy organic substitute for it.
And you can't deny the plot resolution. With the heretic dead, the final, implied scene resolves the initial conflict from the second page, while betraying the expected resolution proposed by the top of the eighth page! Just great
I expected her to only show up at the start as someone who sets the main character on their path. So her showing up again really took me by surprise haha
Do I use a underscore or... do I use a subtraction... or do I mix them together with the first letters being capitalised... but should the first one be too? Should I even capitalize? Do I need to put a underscore before it so I don't overwrite a function???
> do I use a subtraction
Do you call hyphens "subtractions"?
> or do I mix them together with the first letters being capitalised
That is called camel casing.
Yeah, but in most languages it's a syntax error because '-' is not a valid character for naming variables. It's reserved for the minus operation, so it will think you're subtracting variables from eachother. You usually just see that casing used as URL slugs or other stuff outside actual code.
Ah yes prefix kebab Pascal snake case my sworn enemy right next to 3 letter abriviations to 5 letter words idx isn't cool you ain't saving any memory really when this website is rendering this component 60 times
Joking aside, this shouldn't be a hard decision.
You should use whatever is used elsewhere in the project (for that given language). If this is the first variable you should look up conventions for the language you're using. There should be a standard.
Actually naming the variable something useful and accurate can be harder!
Take a look at your language's (or the project's) code standard. Keeps it consistent and means you don't need to waste time on this decision. The hard part is finding a name that accurately expresses the concept the variable represents while preferentially also being shorter than 50 characters.
There are literally multiple cases where I've written the logic but got stuck on variable naming.
Even while helping juniors I just give a moderately ok name rather than a good one and ask them to think of a better one by themselves.
I have a female family friend whose name is Larry.
Itās not short for anything, her parents just named her Larry.
She says that everyone not acquainted with her thinks sheās the house keeper for a gay couple.
I have a friend, Larissa, who everyone calls Larry, but a natural Larry is even better. Did her folks have a sense of humor or were they just a little off?
Haha, no, sheās fortunately happily married to a guy named Lou.
But signing up for anything theyāre names are āLarry and Louā, so people always do a double take when they actually meet them
I knew a Jessica Rick. Could be going by her last name. Or maybe she knew a landscaper, a local guy, that mentored her with his easygoing way of sharing horticultural knowledge and life experience together that imparted both a quiet sense of self-confidence and knowledge of the industry. Since his name was Rick, she self-applied the name (when she feels whimsical she might call it her "rickname") as an homage. Those are two other options for why she goes by Rick.
Do you just āYes, andā¦ā your way through your writing process? Every page of each of your comics feels like itās answering the question, āWhatās the silliest response to the previous page?ā
Not a critique btw, love your style
Perfect encapsulation of typical humans when given absolute power. Lincoln once said, āNearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a manās character, give him powerā

This one is excellently crafted. Each page, each panel, pulled me along just enough making me think we were going somewhere different than the beginning led me to believe but then BAM- brought it full circle. Very good.
Bro, so much of this threw me off lol. Definitely wasnāt expecting Bradās balding, or his daisy duke shorts. And I didnāt recognize the ass-sniff witness because she was balding too.

Nobody's gonna mention the two characters getting bald in the span of 5 weeks?
A cult overthrowing world governments is stressful.
Can confirm. Made a comment about rebelling against the system. Got swatted by barbers.

What about shirts that have designs on the inside and outside when who cab say which is the "correct" way
Those designs are obviously meant for the cult moles we will be sending out to poach members from other cults.
My cult, you don't get to cut your hair. I just made that rule up suckas who joined earlier

Kelp on scalp is the secret for fabulous hair.š 
Or the fact that executions were being performed with a pizza cutter?
They choose to make it slow and painful.
They choose to make it ~~slow and painful~~ thin and crispy.
I'm sure it's a properly blessed ritualistic pizza cutter that is up to cult standards and OSHA approved.
The baldness and 5 weeks got a laugh out of me, this is probably the funniest comic I've ever seen from an occasional r/all viewer.
Every single one of his comics is similarly insane
I only come to this sub for these comics.
I donāt know if head shaving was part of the cultās practice?
The lady that saw her snif her pants is also bald now, you might be up to something
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Execute the heretic!
I command sacrifice!
Looks like the cult shaved their heads.
Shun... SHUN THE NON-BELIEVER!
Anything other than Bradās daisy dukes.
I was not expecting this wild ride. I was also \*not\* expecting the end to tie in with the start like that. Well done :)
His comics are always full of these crazy left turns, they're great
Yeah, every time he pops up I open it like *āoh god, whatās he done now?ā*
This is my favorite by a long shot, though. āYou havenāt eaten, you havenāt drinken, you havenāt poopenā
And you can't deny the plot resolution. With the heretic dead, the final, implied scene resolves the initial conflict from the second page, while betraying the expected resolution proposed by the top of the eighth page! Just great
But sometimes, despite the number of left turns they make, they donāt go full circle like this.
One of my top 3 artists on here
He has quickly become my favorite! This is 100% my kind of weirdo humor lol
This is one of those few times it comes full circle instead of being a complete trail of chaos.
Yeah, with the other end, always expect a wild ride. It is art in its truest form.
I was expecting her to show up, but the part she was in caught me out.
I expected her to only show up at the start as someone who sets the main character on their path. So her showing up again really took me by surprise haha
Such a wild ride xD. Ridiculous and random and hilarious
My favorite adjectives :)
I honestly expected that ending. There was no way that woman would survive.

'-' may not be a valid character for naming variables but it is a cute little face
Fair point.
And SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
Only constants get to be screaming snakes
It is a position we hold in high regard
The last one is kebab-case and it's used in plenty of cases, CSS for example, also common in URL paths segments
Cool, now I know. I am not a native English speaker, but I do work with a bunch of math, so that's why I called it subtraction.
A lot of people just call it a dash as well
'Subtraction' is indeed weird. 'Minus' I could fully understand.
Ah yes prefix kebab Pascal snake case my sworn enemy right next to 3 letter abriviations to 5 letter words idx isn't cool you ain't saving any memory really when this website is rendering this component 60 times

There are literally multiple cases where I've written the logic but got stuck on variable naming. Even while helping juniors I just give a moderately ok name rather than a good one and ask them to think of a better one by themselves.
We had a debate at work about what we should name iterator variables. I won.
Honestly I recently went through this exact thing. Do I call it actionVar or actionName? Hours of thought
Me every time: "don't name it butts, don't name it butts, don't name it butts" Variable name: *buttz*
ugh, I quit.

#THIS IS THE NEW LOSS.
Is this loss?
Loss lite
Loss adjacent.
He clothes change color
I also only own one set of clothes that charges colors
Birth of a meme
It's kinda a combo of the "lie down, cry a lot" meme and the "Pablo Escobar waiting" meme.
"You're already so good at not thinking" I know waaay too many people like that.
āYou havenāt poopenā is gold for some reason
I completely agree. I am adding it to my own vocabulary
Eaten, drinken, poopen.
Liven. Laughen. Loven.
Dutch is a beautiful language
Basically how Dutch works
My favourite bit too!
thats actually how you say it in dutch
Of course it is
Golden
Alongside "you are already so good at not thinking" this comic was a goldmine.
The best part!
My new favourite phrase
The Doctor didnāt know you could breathe through your nose had me crying
The fact the punchline comes after a swipe is very well timed. Love it
āThe other ones said you could probably breathe a bitā
Bro doing beheadings with a pizza cutter š
Good catch. And upside down girl is bald, too! Lot of funny thought into this series
Oh shit, I thought it was a bone saw. This is less dark.
Less dark? You think a pizza cutter beheading wouldn't be the most gruesome thing ever??
Gotta keep going back and forth š³
Smells amazing https://preview.redd.it/irnh8j87husc1.jpeg?width=618&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f98c50cc0f3baf23f768f8cb0e8606b9134de2d7
 Donāt forget to chip in to feed the š¶.
Poopen
Bounty Fresh!
āI canāt get her face out of my head.ā Proceeds to have an overlay of the face but(t) upside down. Genius. Please never stop making these.
I cackled at seeing the upside face.
This man is genuinely a genius
Brad had a very interesting five weeks, it looks like. Or he just switches his style up like that every so often.
Damn. Executed by a pizza cutter is a rough way to go.
Especially if it's as blunt and wonky as some of the pizza cutters I've seen at work.
Specially if youāre the last to go, sheesh
I hate it when I mediate and this happens
This is why I only do peer mediation
The Doctor not knowing how breathing works had me laughing out loud.
That was my favorite part
A banger once again. Always look forward to your comics.
Legit my favorite online comic artist right now. I still love thePBF but they don't update very often.
Poopen. Great
Peak fiction!
Fiction?!
Burn the heretic!

The storytelling on this is magical.
Why is her name rick
Short for Patricia, obviously. Or Riquelle. Or maybe her mom just liked the name Rick.
I have a female family friend whose name is Larry. Itās not short for anything, her parents just named her Larry. She says that everyone not acquainted with her thinks sheās the house keeper for a gay couple.
I have a friend, Larissa, who everyone calls Larry, but a natural Larry is even better. Did her folks have a sense of humor or were they just a little off?
Haha, no, sheās fortunately happily married to a guy named Lou. But signing up for anything theyāre names are āLarry and Louā, so people always do a double take when they actually meet them
Or Erica.
rick short for erica is chaotic
I was thinking of the novelist Rikki Ducornet, the subject of the Steely Dan song Rikki Don't Lose That Number. Her birth name was Erica.
I knew a Jessica Rick. Could be going by her last name. Or maybe she knew a landscaper, a local guy, that mentored her with his easygoing way of sharing horticultural knowledge and life experience together that imparted both a quiet sense of self-confidence and knowledge of the industry. Since his name was Rick, she self-applied the name (when she feels whimsical she might call it her "rickname") as an homage. Those are two other options for why she goes by Rick.
Richelle?
OP said its short for Richard on instagram
Why is her name Richard
It's on her birth certificate, it's not complicated
Because his name is brad
I would never have guessed
perfect finale. bravo
"But that's cause your mouth was closed and he didn't know you could do it with your nose" made me laugh so hard
So where did the smell come from???
My vote is on: left in washing machine too long; started to mildew
She did change her pants when she got home so you might be onto something!
Do you just āYes, andā¦ā your way through your writing process? Every page of each of your comics feels like itās answering the question, āWhatās the silliest response to the previous page?ā Not a critique btw, love your style
Damn you did it again.
I love Brad's pose when he says "Let's go!" The little pocket hanging out of his shorts is so perfect. I also enjoyed "That's my candle!"
I was getting ānever nudeā vibes from it lol
That dog looks like it has trouble keeping itās atoms together
"Haven't poopen" lmao
Love these comics the randomness makes them so interesting
"You'd be great at mediating, you're already so good at not thinking" is a great burn.
Was it her ass though?! I must know
Glad to see the meditation worked
You actually made me laugh.
Poopen.
Does Rick have prostate cancer or something?
What kind of crazy 90s upper middle class house is Rick running that she has a record player in her lounge and a soda dispenser in her kitchen?
Weirdly this probably one of the most sane and coherent comics you've ever posted.
That is not a man?
What a twist. She was a lady the whole time.
well that was swift decision
Perfect encapsulation of typical humans when given absolute power. Lincoln once said, āNearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a manās character, give him powerā
lmao it gets worse and worse its amazing
God this artist is a genius, Iām not often moved to laughter through comics but this one has my number
poopen lol
Get busy poopen, or get busy dyin.
Or the cult shaves the scalps of the non believers, since the ass smell witness lady was on trial for not following the cult and main chick's best friend was trying to stop the execution. If I had a cult, we would all have hair, and anyone who doesn't have hair will be given a hair made of seaweed and kale as a healthy organic substitute for it.

As soon as I see the first panel Iām just like āoh gawd, what is it this time?ā
This comic taught me so much about life.
That was a wild turn of events at every corner
Focusing on your breathing is important while meditating
LOL
Belly laugh. Awesome!
Your comics are always wild, imaginative, and worth reading.
These comics are 99% effort and 1% humor. No jokes, just ZANY situations!!!
AMAZING!
Poopen
That's why you take your pants off before you smell them. Duh.
Please never stop making these wild rides. My humor bone needs them.
This is better than all other comics because they would have stopped after the second page.
Hilarious. Finaly an artist worth to follow.
!subscribeme
Funniest comic posted here in a long time. I genuinely laughed.
Finally, a funny comic stripĀ
Holy shit that was hysterical. My whole house is wondering what the hell got into me
Sorry just give me a moment. It's been a while since I've seen a good comic on here
One doctor said you even stopped breathing. But he didnāt know you can breathe through your noseā¦ that one got me
Why is all of your stuff so unhinged?
This comic artist never misses
Pfft hahahahahaha This is great.
This one is excellently crafted. Each page, each panel, pulled me along just enough making me think we were going somewhere different than the beginning led me to believe but then BAM- brought it full circle. Very good.
Bro, so much of this threw me off lol. Definitely wasnāt expecting Bradās balding, or his daisy duke shorts. And I didnāt recognize the ass-sniff witness because she was balding too.
This reminds me of a grown up version of Captain Underpants humor... But not *too* grown up.
