MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Anyone got any great suggestions for daily amusement fixes? Dilbert and xkcd taken as standard of course...
I started reading [url=www.sluggy.com]Sluggy [/url]a few years back, though i did eventually have to go back and read years of back story to catch up.
Penny arcade
PHD (if you're in academia).
Abstruse Goose (tho quality is variable)
Ctrl-Alt-Del: http://www.cad-comic.com/ (mainly games humour - bit like Penny Arcade)
+1 for Ctrl Alt Del, if you're into gaming. Updated Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
[url= http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ ]Hyperbole and a Half[/url] - I've seen grown men crying with laughter over this blog. I particularly recommend the post[url= http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/11/dogs-dont-understand-basic-concepts.html ]"Dogs don't understand basic concepts like moving"[/url]. Sadly not updated daily.

Excellent selection. Ctrl-Alt-Del was great and Sluggy looks good for a late evening read through a story.
Off to check our Penny Arcade now..

Daily Mash T-short collection is especially fine. Does anyone here actually own one though
ah, so you just spent the last 10 mins pressing the 'random' button on that site as well - great isn't it 🙂
Dilbert and xkcd
Then I believe what sir is missing from his life is [url= http://userfriendly.org/ ]User Friendly[/url]
I particularly recommend the post"Dogs don't understand basic concepts like moving".
Thanks for that. I read this back when if was first published, and promptly forgot what it was and have never been able to find the site again. Win.

On the basis of one strip; did Calvin (of "& Hobbes" fame) grow up?
http://www.smbc-comics.com/#comic
All good suggestions so far, xkcd, c&h, cad, but smbc is by far my favourite. Brilliant mix of philosophy, science, boobs, religion, and dick jokes.
smbc is looking like a winner

Sir has duly added to the rapidly expanding 'Comics' bookmark, tx. Work may be slow starting
Raiding my bookmarks,
Ctrl-Alt-Del you've all said.
[url= http://eddirt.frozenreality.co.uk ]Edible Dirt[/url] is a series of (usually questionable) single-frame cartoons. Sorta like a twisted Far Side.
[url= http://www.leasticoulddo.com ]Least I could do[/url] is an ongoing plot arc strip which is really funny. You kinda need to start at the beginning for it to make any sense though. See also, [url= http://questionablecontent.net ]Questionable Content[/url]; not laugh-out-loud funny per se but an endearing geeky soap-opera of a strip.
[url= http://darthsanddroids.net ]Darths and Droids[/url] is Star Wars rescripted by a fictional Dungeons & Dragons group, but much more well done than you'd think.
[url= http://www.darklegacycomics.com ]Dark Legacy[/url] is basically a World of Warcraft spoof. Hysterical if you've played it, pointless if you haven't.
[url= http://www.oglaf.com ]OGLAF[/url] is, ah, really really not safe for work.
Work may be slow starting
That's a recognised phenomenon, it's the User Friendly Productivity Virus.
+1 for Pearls Before Swine & Happiness and Cyanide
Cougar you git. Just wasted hours reading the back issues of Darths and Droids. Now I'll never make my deadline!
I'm stunned that no one has mentioned this gem yet: http://www.schlockmercenary.com/
Good artwork and a huge plot
presses add to bookmarks.
Used to like Pearls before Swine but gave up eventually.
[url= http://romanticallyapocalyptic.com/1 ]Romantically Apocalyptic[/url]
I've really got into this, it's only weekly but is gloriously surreal whilst actually having a story to it, as it's just turned out...
Just wasted hours reading the back issues of Darths and Droids.
Did you fall down the rabbithole where they tangent off into alternate cartoon strips?
Thankfully I stuck to "Revelation of the Sith".
Otherwise I'd still be reading!
