THIS!
You have no idea how much this made me laugh.
I can't breathe... blast you Rocket Hat for you have killed me!

I didn't even get past the first panel before I started laughing. It's just so perfect.

Even facebooks character limit annoys me.

That was so funny I almost need a change of pants.

Dude, you really made my day!

March 14, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterOedlan

LOL
hmmm, by God, Missy's right again!

I have this same problem with automatic devices. I've walked into automatic doors that weren't when I wasn't paying attention. Also people look at you real funny when they activate a device with their presence that they just saw you not able to activate with yours.

HAHAHA!! Still awesome

Not first

Adding "LOL" or "lol" to anything makes it more internet-authentic.

You know "friggin" is a bad word in the UK? I don't mind but I know you might.

For your next book why not include some 'adult' themed strips that are too rude for your web site?
You must have ideas for loads of adult basic instructions. For example.....
How to pee with a boner.
How to react when your finger breaks thru toilet paper.
How to talk your wife into 'experimential sex.
Rocket Hat sex 101.
Etc, etc

Not sure which part of the UK you're from Mike, but I don't think it's a particularly bad word. I'd probably get away with saying it in church...


PS, just noticed your middle name, so I might know which part of the UK you're from now :)

Frigging is sort of bad (slightly above "bloody [hell]"), but it's more sociable than the word it's replacing!

And yes, I love the first panel.

@MGB: "friggin" is a bad word anywhere in the English-speaking world, if you're a friggin prude.

When the machines take over, you will be the mud-covered Arnold to the Predator that is (in a movie twist of fate) much like the Terminator.

Or, you sold your soul, like Bart Simpson.

Great one! Thnx!

Friggin' magician jazz hands for the win! I always love your comics, but this one was an authentic LMAO.

March 14, 2011 | Unregistered Commentermoojen

I love this one! Somehow I am do not have enough of the systems of ADD to follow tweets. I distract myself enough, I don't need the help.

"You know "friggin" is a bad word in the UK? I don't mind but I know you might."

I hear "piddlin' around" does NOT mean "to move around aimlessly" as well. Yet, the two actions may occur to some to happen at the same time.

I always feel the exact same way about those towel dispensers and the air hand dryers. Some kind of friggin' science mage.

Awesome strip Scott!

March 14, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterWally

Excellent stuff. Reminds me of a bathroom I went in where the only automated fixture was the soap dispenser. Literally, the ONE thing in the room you'd wash your hands immediately after touching...

March 14, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterBird

It's kind of funny. A lot of the time the sensors for automatic doors don't detect me, yet I'll trigger the automatic towel dispenser if I get within 2 feet of it.

March 14, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterHari

Panels one, three, four, and the title of your autobiography all made me laugh much harder than other people's full comic strips do. Keep up the awesome work, man.

The size limit forces creativity - see today's punchline. If you can't say it in 140 characters, it's not Twitter material. Try blogging it.

I also was unable to get past the first panel.
good work
