ugh. my boyfriend is in grad school for psychology and also knows many tricks. but i fight back with cartoonist attack skillz! i have a whole bunch of incriminating comics waiting for the right time to be posted to his advisors. bwahahaha!
I’m really liking the stick-figure style you used during your travels. Oddly, I find them more emotive and cute. Maybe I should draw more stick figures!
Thank god you haven’t heard of our other man-secrets such as;
- Doing nice things for no apparent reason
- Saying nice things for no apparent reason
- Making a meal, bringing tea, mixing a drink, etc. for you for no apparent reason
- Bringing home flowers or other small gift-y things for no apparent reason
- Giving back rubs/foot rubs/temple rubs for no apparent reason
The list continues, but like the above, it is very hush-hush. We learn it in Boy Scouts or something. I’m so old, I forgot where I first learned these Jedi-like techniques.
>=( …My sister’s a witch, and that’s offensive!~ (I’m athiest and I think she’s dislusional, but I think all religion is pretty crazy. Her religion is better than Christanity, anyway.)
Gotta agree, Wicca and it’s ilk make far more sense than the others in a class of things that make no sense.
Though, Buddists are pretty cool, too. Very mellow, for the most part. When was the last time a Buddist knocked on your door to tell you you’re going to burn in the 7 circles of hell? LOL
I love doing this kind of stuff. There are so many other things like this that I do to calm down my girlfriend, and she doesn’t know any of them. The thing I like most about these techniques is that, if done correctly, almost always work.
Women say that we men don’t know any ways of dealing with women. We let them believe that because, if they knew about this, they would come to expect it more often.
We’re not dimwits. Well… Some of us aren’t anyway… I can’t speak for all men.
Whenever I think about this I remember a douchebag that would walk down the halls of my highschool and as he did so every female that saw him would oh-so-slightly angle away from him. It was like watching wildlife.
and that reminds me of a time when I was on a bus and we were passing the scene of a multi-car pile up with people milling around and shouting. I couldn’t hear them, and they paid no attention to us. I couldn’t help it and I said out loud “I feel like I’m on safari.”
In a world where I though women were actually human, I can’t believe you came out with this:
“Thank god you haven’t heard of our other man-secrets such as;

– In most people’ world, it’s just called “being nice”, or “being respectful” or maybe even “being human” — in your world, it’s obviously just a technique.

As a psych major, this makes me chortle with delight

HAHAHA, ooh wow.
February 28th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
I think all of use psych majors think this is funny

February 28th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Is “chortle” the pedophile way of laughing? Also, this is the stupidest fucking comic I’ve ever seen in my life.

Oh yeah, love the comic. Brilliant! (Saved and link forwarded to friends and family with almost reckless abandon)
February 28th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
I hope my girl friend never fiends this. I use this quite often. It is nice to be able to defuse any problem in under half a minute, or so.
February 28th, 2008 at 7:58 pm
“d” is the kind of person psychotropics were invented for. I’m just sayin’.
Or maybe I’m thinking of shock therapy. Yeah, that’s a shade more felicitous.

Actually, Bill, just a few hours ago. I had urinated on his lawn though.

I love learning about Psychology. This by far is the best website for Psychology Humor tht I have found so far.

March 8th, 2008 at 5:15 am
I love psychological cues and triggers.
Whenever I think about this I remember a douchebag that would walk down the halls of my highschool and as he did so every female that saw him would oh-so-slightly angle away from him. It was like watching wildlife.

no way, is it true? this now rationalizes hugging me to my boyfriend (b/c there is now a reason for it..)
March 16th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
This is completely unrealistic! No woman would ever realize that she was being irrational (much less admit it).

Bill Vincent - what is a Buddist? o.O

Hi T2,
In a world where I though women were actually human, I can’t believe you came out with this:
“Thank god you haven’t heard of our other man-secrets such as;

Christianity: In the beginning, there was an all powerful being who created the Earth and galaxy in a week.
Atheism: In the beginning there was nothing. Which exploded.
April 13th, 2008 at 5:32 am
this is so true
it so works for me
didn’t know it was a scientific fact for all women though
December 1st, 2008 at 6:31 pm

December 5th, 2008 at 9:24 am
It releases oxytocin, retards, not endorphins

He looks like my ex who also used to call me “Lady”.
December 12th, 2009 at 1:49 am
“fuck … thank god women don’t read books”
>.> Hoar I read the Douglas Adams series Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy when I was 11. Lawl.
Nice Comic Jul, I loved it. (:
