But can he shoot fire out of his nose? Ordinary people (or Bugs, in this case) can't shoot fire out of their noses. Try tricking him into lighting a candle with his nose.
I remember when I was a very young lad, I thought adults got the summer off of their jobs. After all, I got summer out of school, why shouldn't they get out of their jobs for three months.
I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. In minus 40 Celcius weather, this Jamaican guy walks by and says "all my life I have sun and sand. Now I have snow! Isn't it wonderful?" How messed up is that?
Well here's one for ya! Unless you travel buy bus/subway/other means just keep another coat/hat in the car you drive to work in and leave the coat you walked in with on your chair's back rest ( and leave the rest of the gear -scarf/hat/globes in the office too) and just rough it up till you get to the car.
Then, be on your way to the nearest joint for a cuppa coffee or a beer! :))
I love how pony tail bug has almost become a character in her own right. ^_^ Oh, loved that bug jumped out the window. What the heck was his boss trying to get him to do? O_o
The boss was telling him that he had to go to one of those meetings that are all about teamwork. The kind of meeting where employees are separated into groups and given activities to do.
I have to tell you a story about that: years ago when I worked for the Ontario gov't we had one of those days. Our group of 30 was given a "logic puzzle" (ya know, "Bob never eats cats. Becky dates someone who shaves dogs. Alex is taller than Becky's mom." and ending with "Who fraternized with the salamander?"). Each person in our group was given one "clue" with the idea that we'd have to work together to share clues and solve it. No-one wanted to do the exercise. However, I've always had a knack for those sorts of puzzles so I said, "Everyone give me your clue." Then, while they all chatted, I took ten minutes and solved it, and presented the answer to the HR person running she session. She said, "That's the fastest it's ever been solved." My manager said, "There's the lesson – don't waste time trying to force group work; give the task to the person most suited." (He was a surprisingly cool manager.)
I was wondering what you used to make the Random button for your website. I ask because sometimes I press it and it takes me to the same comic several times in a row, and I usually only get the same comics very often. I find that I rarely get a different comic from the ones I normally get through the random button. It could be my luck. I understand making a truly random system is very difficult, so I'm definitely not criticizing you. I'm just curious.
I've just spent the past few days reading through the archives and I've gotta say this is my new favorite webcomic. I love how you write it so that we get a laugh out of every panel. Keep up the great work.
Just run outside in your regular clothes. No one will suspect anything, and if they catch you, just say you've gone insane and they'll probably let you go
Adam, I just finished reading the archives and all I have to say is now I have to get back to work. But I'm looking forward to my next to procrastinate:)
The thing is, though, if you can stand the cold, you can walk out during the winter and noone thinks your leaving because you don't have winter gear on
Move to Phoenix it is summer all the time. We get more sun then Florida. I have friends that moved from Florida because it rained too much. It rains everyday in Florida.
Just keep a biker helmet! No one can see who you are!
Ah, Iron Deficiency Anemia. How that takes me back! Good one!
Hey now it is real but only for girls.
DECEIVER! Makes it look like the next step is a public witch burning haha. Just gotta see if he floats now, to make sure. Nice touch.

Foolish, foolish me.
I want summer!!
Move to the southern hemisphere. Don't come to New Zealand though, cyclone Wilma is on her way.
Another great one Adam 😀
Just come to the bottom of New Zealand we don’t get cyclones, much
Not like New Zealand actually gets summer 😛
Move to the Caribbean. It's summer all the time here!

I hear ya. With our rough Siberian climate (yea i'm a russky) minus 40 degrees Celsius is something people are used around here.
Well here's one for ya!

I think there should be a Bug comic about he "windshields" in life
loving the "I'm totally not skipping work today" walk in panel 2.
the elbows way up in the air give him away
I love that strut too. It’s the “la la la, they haven’t got a clue” power stroll.
"Ah-CHOO!" – love it!

that was great man… your manager is so right.
I would jump out the window too! Ugh I HATE those types of "meetings".
She is. I should really sit down and find a better way of drawing here though. I’m never happy with the pony tail.
Is it really the deceiving Iron Deficiency Anemia or padding for going out the 3rd floor window? 😉
"He's an enigma" love that line!
Guess how high is the window in panel 3!

The random button is just an option I can turn on using ComicPress.
True randomness often has repetition; take pi, for example.
"He's an enigma."
I wish I knew how he pulled it off. I always wanted to be an enigma.
