How to Explain Men's Emotions: A Useful Analogy [COMIC]
Contrary to popular belief, the frozen burrito is not the best frozen food metaphor for explaining male emotions.
Basic Instructions is a twice weekly updating web comic that offers absurd advice on how to live your life. Starting this week, some of those updates will be happening here on Cracked.
Found this pretty amusing. Must say - the male protagonist had an eerie resemblance to Edward Norton in American History X. Googleimg that shit.
ReplyWhat is the general explanation for when a man or a woman has the opposite gender's sort of emotions, then? I know some guys who are /definitely/ pies, and I know one girl who couldn't be more emotionally segmented.
Reply*sigh* We don't know, Mikori. I know most of us are confused at the concept of generalities and exceptions to the norm, so we can't help you out.
Blowing doesn't help. I tried. It made things worse.
ReplyThis is sooooo true, that's the sad thing.
ReplyThe humor in these is more of a "its funny because its true" not a "oh that guy just got kicked in the balls" funny. The internet is unforgiving, yet most of the "critics" out there have some deep seated issues, so f**k you guys.
ReplyNo, his wife does have him by the balls. I generally like his comics, in contrast to many of the commenters here, what I dislike is that he's so whipped.
Weird, Cephei. Looks like you have some personal issues.
efilsnotlad's comment had nothing to do with anyone being "whipped".
This gave me all sorts of giggles. :D A+

ReplyHi-freaking-larious!
This makes me hungry
Replyan authentic out-loud giggle escaped me.
Replydamn I'm hungry
ReplyThrough some ancient method of forbidden and unholy "comedic" alchemy, you've managed to condense the very essence of "According to Jim", "the Gorge Lopez show", and a eye raping wall of text into...what...is that Bobby Hill as a grown up h**osexual biker having an unfunny discussion about food products with a dyked out, pear shaped Janine Melnitz wearing a Ziggy Stardust wig?

Douche.
You know what a critic is? Somebody who critiques something that people pay money for. Do you know what you call somebody who criticizes things that nobody pays for? An emo.
Uhm, no, derelix, not really. It's called "An average citizen of the internet"
I fail to see how they can't be both, saviodo. Douche applies here too, interestingly enough.
Also, Gashlycrumb, please refrain from reproducing. World's got quite a surplus of smug neckbeard cocksuckers already. Don't need any more. Thanks for your consideration in this matter.

Genius. This comic is awesome.

ReplyAnd this strip was pathetic.
Eat that in a TV dinner.
OH s**t
How To Exploit Sterotypes: A Useless Attempt At Comedy
ReplyWow! It's like every maritally-oriented hack stand-up act in history condensed into one painfully unfunny comic! This couldn't be any more hilarious if Bill Engvall himself wrote it.
ReplySeriously
"Hey, its funny. Men all talk and act like this, you see. While women be all acting like that!"
Reply*pause for laughs*
*crickets chime in*
"YOU GUYS DON'T UNDERSTAND MY SOCIAL COMMENTARY"
I think you just don't understand the difference between men and women. If you spent enough time around the opposite sex you would probably get it.
Your referring to a very low form of humor that basically goes to ignorant stereotypes, like the idea that men have no emotions and women are way smarter. This actually described the difference pretty well.
...I think it was sarcasm....
Oh the day when the front page hosts XKCD and Cyanide and Happiness will be the day I know cracked editors have wised up.
ReplyI keep hearing people talk about XKCD and I keep hearing how it's the best damn thing that's ever happened to the world, ever. But they must take the absolutely funny stuff off the site whenever I visit. Don't get me wrong, some of their stuff makes me chuckle, and I'm a math minor so I can understand most if not all of the jokes, but I still can't see what the big deal about it is.
Cyaninde and Happiness is pretty funny, though.
unfortunately i found this was way off.
ReplyKane talking about emotions? And TV Dinners? What heresy is this?
