How to Improve Your Day By Ruining Someone Else's [COMIC]

Basic Instructions is a twice weekly updating web comic that offers absurd advice on how to live your life. Some of those updates will be happening here on Cracked.
Previously Scott has taught us How To Ruin Your Childhood Memories and How to Tell a Scary Story.








The only funny part is the guy's mullet in the first panel.
ReplyHa, parasite got me.
ReplyGodamn these suck, and yet I'll continue to read in search of the rare giggle-worthy ones. I believe in you.
ReplyThese comics are getting better. They used to suck, there's no denying it, but... I actually laugh now.
ReplyNo, you don't. You've just been reading Scott Meyer long enough that you've forgotten what laughter is.
I swear I actually heard a laugh track after each panel. f**king hell, these are lame. I keep expecting that if I just give them one more try, they'll be a funny one. But, alas, no.
ReplyHey.....this one actually made me laugh. Out loud!!!!

Okay, I must say this comic was indeed funny.
ReplyScott meyer I f**king hate you
Replyhahaha... classic!
ReplyCan't wait until Cracked posts a funny one of these.
Replylol i love these comics...
ReplyWhaddaya know, it's actually kind of chuckle-worthy. Looks like it just needed some time.
ReplyOn an unrelated note, Bald Bearded Dude is a dead ringer for Dan Didio, EIC of DC Comics and professional corporate d******d. Maybe that was why he rubbed me the wrong way.
for the first time ever, i didn't roll my eyes while reading these comics. that being said, there are quite a few more steps from eye-rolling to chuckling. keep at it though, i guess it's getting better.
ReplyYou know, the title could have been shortened to "How to Experience Schadenfreude". The easiest way to experience schadenfreude is to troll.
ReplyExcept he ends it with cheering the other guy up at the end. That's not exactly schadenfreude. On the bright side, you win some internets for spelling "schadenfreude" right.
3rd panel was good. The rest were incredibly predictable :s
Reply Hide All See All 5 RepliesAgreed
the 3rd panel was one of the most predictable
yeah 3rd was easily most predictable
I certainly predicted there would be a third panel...
I totally predicted the punchline would be "birth control."
I don't get the end joke, but the first two panels were amusing.
ReplyThe end joke is easy. If the birth control pill makes her more attractive to boys, she'll be having even more sex.
duh......?
Finally, a 4th panel that made me chuckle. These are getting better.
ReplyAgreed.
Insulted by a man with a mullet. The shame.
ReplyYou really want to be Ryan North, eh?
Reply Hide All See All 3 RepliesThere's actually a little too much variety in his visuals for him to aim to be just like ryan north.
Variety? In Basic Instructions? Like, the whole point is to cover many topics while using limited art.
Yep and dinosaur comics has no art at all. It's really only a copy paste of the very first comic. Which in a way makes it slightly less graphically creative than basic instructions.
