Things That Only Seem Like a Good Idea at the Time [Comic]
Winston Rowntree is the author of Subnormality, the popular webcomic which he describes as containing "weird characters, endless opinions and occasionally huge walls of text."
In this installment of his regular Cracked comic Abnormality, Mr. Rowntree shows us some decisions that don't look so great in the long view.
Check out past updates, in which Winston showed you The Truth Behind Obnoxious Assholes with 4 Pie Charts, Bono as a Superhero, Why Marriage Is Evil, The Mineral States of Man and Every Album Ever or weeks before when he showed you The Circle of Life for Jocks and Nerds, How To Win At Panhandling and How NOT to Get Revenge on Your Ex.
The dude in the "after" of #2 is everyone I know.
ReplyThe moral of the story: live fast, die young; being old sucks in every way possible.
ReplyAffirmative!
My gf is 15 years younger than me. I'll be sure she doesn't take a look at this. ha ha
ReplyWell, you don't have to MARRY the older guy...
ReplyExcept the example is that you marry an older guy..
the guy in bathroom on the pie chart is frowning. you're telling me you don't enjoy your reflection and pondering time that you spend in the bathroom?
ReplyHe appears to be sitting under a large wall made of eyes. Perhaps that unsettles him somehow.
That just made me depressed.
Replyexcept when you get older bathroom goes from 5% to like 50%
ReplyHaha! The only thing I disagree with is that I don't spend the same amount of time eating as I do s**ting
ReplyI think that includes everything you do in the bathroom. Not just peeing and crapping, but showering, using a pumice stone on your elbows, waxing your chest, whatever.
Yeah... Yeah, now I understand. That highly esoteric bit of insight was really quite well-placed, sir. Thank you.
Hahaha batman vs the cfl
ReplyDid that Batman comic really say "vs. the CFL"?
ReplyIn this economy, ou can replace the Work & Chores part of the pie chart with Computing.
ReplyReading MAD >>Fast Forward>> Reading cracked
Replyhaha ITS REALLY GOOD LOL
ReplyThat older guy from the first panel is really hot.
ReplyHe's a cartoon... He isn't attractive OR unattractive. Because he's a cartoon.
Do you find Jessica Rabbit attractive? Or Daphne from Scooby Doo?
This guys comics are my new favorite thing. Not exactly a cheap easy laugh, but some of them are mind blowingly awesome.
Replydepressing.

ReplyYeah really enjoying life...
As a saggy unattractive bag of bones that probably hurts with every step.
Everything just tastes better with youth
"Unlike most Winston Rowntree comics, this isn't just simply unfunny" is not a lengthy comment or a specific reason. it's a complicated way to say "Winston Rowntree sux and this strip is teh worst". the rest of the comment, i have no problem with...
ReplyI'm really loving Winston Rowntree's comics. The art is great, and even though not all of them are laugh out loud funny, there is a point to them besides just a stupid joke.
ReplyWith that said, I think its funny how people get mad when someone posts a short comment, like "meh" or "fail", but when someone posts a lengthier comment that gives specific reasons why they don't like it, or disagree with it, they make a personal attack on them (like assuming they are young and immature) and attempt to discredit their opinion.
ChemicalEagle2, I apologize on behalf of the hypocrites here (because they get mad when it happens to them), and I thank you for actually taking the time to explain why you didn't like it, instead of just posting "LOLfag".
When you say, "my time to enjoy life is like 60%", I think you mean, "my time to sit in front of a computer and regret dropping out of highschool is like 60%".
