scans_dailyI'm a fan of Real Life, a "slice of slightly deranged sort-of-autobiographical life" webcomic, which I've posted samples before.
Sure, it may not be ground-breaking in tone, it uses a repetitive and simple art style (though that sort of thing rarely bothers me), but it makes me smile, and I do find myself having a more than occasional "Yup, I can be that geeky too" moments.
Greg is the main character, a fictionalsed version of the author, and his wife Lis, new baby daughter Harper, and their friends who include Tony (who is to Bond villains what Mycroft was to Sherlock) and Dave, who is sort of Tony's sidekick.
I'm torn between pitying how this kid will grow up, and wanting to get some for the next nephew or niece to show up!
And you KNOW Disney would market these if there was the slightest chance they'd get away with it!
I'm a lifelong teetotaller and even I can see how this could appeal.
Then again, maybe I'll stick to the 7-Up
I should, in the spirit of civic responsibility, add that Scans_Daily does not support the excessive use of alcohol infused sweets, nor will it, or any of it's posters, be held liable for any such alcohol/sweet experimentation that readers may indulge in.
As the Christmas party season starts, we recommend that you don't chew and drive!
