Brazilian artist Deya Muniz has been working on her webcomic series Brutally Honest for 5 years now, but it looks like she won't be running out of ideas anytime soon. Her strips continue to deal with the absurd realities of everyday life with brutal honesty and refreshing humor, offering precisely what we need to come to terms with the fact that we don't always have our crap together. So, just like the last time we wrote about Deya's work, we invite you to enjoy a cathartic experience very few Internet artists can provide.

Even when I shop a sale it often turns out there's a better deal right around the corner.

"You could say the series is really personal," Muniz told Bored Panda. "Not necessarily in a deep 'this is who I really am inside' kind of way, but more in a 'being based around stuff that happens to me in real life' way. I'm just putting my own thoughts and feelings out there and people seem to relate or find my life funny, which are both cool!"

Currently, Muniz is living in the US with her wife and their dog, and the trio are the most popular characters on the series nowadays. But other guests also make their appearances from time to time. "I've included a lot of other friends in the past, it just varies based on who I've been spending time with. I always show them the comic ahead of time to make sure they're okay with it though!"

That's been going on for centuries. Women living with their best friends. Ahem. And recently being able to marry them.

Even though Muniz has been working on the series for half a decade, she has no intention of stopping. "I take breaks when and if I need to, and there's no schedule or deadlines I need to worry about with Brutally Honest. Sometimes, I pop one out just to vent."

I almost cried when I realised when the 5 second rule didn't work as we were told.

I fortunately rarely cut myself shaving especially since I started using men’s razors. But shaving is still a pain in the a**e and causes irritattion.

I never understood those people. When someone tells me to calm down, I acknowledge that I'm gone too far, and I try to calm down. Actually, it's more like a "shame-signal" for me: I'd better calm down, unless I want to feel terribly awkward and ashamed everytime I think back on that particular event.

For me, whenever someone used this phrase, it was because they have f****d up spectacularly but wanted to turn their mistake against me. Which will absolutely result in me blowing up on them.

I think it's a big mistake to tell someone to calm down, as well as to relax. I think the natural reaction is to do the opposite.

Oof. When someone tells me to calm down I end up throwing a book at 'em while screaming British insults I learned from my friend Rowan.

I'm more likely to tell someone to breathe, and that it'll be ok. I find that saying "breathe" is taken as more comforting and sincere.

That's a perfectly logical and understandable reaction

Very resonant of Johnny the Homicidal Maniac... makes perfect sense to me.

To get back at "those" people: If you can shoot lasers out of your eyes, that usually shuts them up. :)

It's annoying to be told that, but if you just calm down immediately, you can "save face".

Or grey hair. I wish mine would've waited one more year; Til 40. It's only the beard so far, but 35 was still too early.

Simple: put all of your food on their plate and then swap the plates around.

The only time Google is correct about a desease. Normally is always some kind of death sentence.

Are there really people who cry so often? (Not judging at all, seriously asking)

That is pretty much me and my daughter. My hair is down to my bum and haven’t had it cut in a couple of years. I am going for a cut and colour in a few weeks and I want a change but I am a bit nervous and unsure whether to get a drastic new style or just get a trim and my hair layered. Yet my daughter has an undercut and wants to shave the side of her head when she turns 16.
