Comics have a way of turning everyday moments into something funny, relatable, and unforgettable. Tim Thavirat, the creative mind behind ManchildManor, does exactly that. From quirky observations to absurd twists on ordinary life, his comics capture the little things majority of us experience and laugh at every day.
Based in San Diego, Tim is not just a comic artist; he’s also a videographer, motion graphics designer, and drummer. His work has gained a loyal following on Instagram, where his humorous and chaotic comics continue to connect with fans around the world. Whether you’re a longtime follower or discovering him for the first time, Tim’s comics are a wild, hilarious ride you won’t want to miss.

Tim draws inspiration from the world around him, finding humor in everyday interactions. “It always comes from everyday interactions or people watching. I recommend always having a notepad or phone handy, to write down your ideas for later,” he shared.
This is actually a powerful image: the (possibly) men (who are using the space poorly) are unapologetically taking up a lot of space, and the ) (possible) woman is trying to make herself as small and unobtrusive as possible.
I Absolutely Loath Inconsiderate People! Like no one needs to through that doorway!
The åssholes who always have to have a meeting right in the hallway are probably the same people who want everybody to work in the office instead of from home. Why? So they can do stuff like this and annoy people.
Creating comics, however, isn’t always easy. Between work, family, and other responsibilities, finding time can be a challenge. As Tim explained, “Finding the time can be difficult, with life’s other responsibilities. I recommend keeping a tablet handy, and fitting in any writing or drawing when you can. There’s often a few minutes of downtime when doing other things, and that’s when you can fit it in.”
My sugar a*******n is going to k**l me but idk how to stop. Will power and feeling crappy when I don't have sugar are my weaknesses
It's been this way ever since the 'war on fat'. Guess who started that....
This is actually a nod to the movie "They Live" It's cheesy as all get out, but John Carpenter directed it so it's "good cheesy"
Social media has played a big role in Tim’s journey, helping his work reach thousands of new fans. “Instagram reels have been huge, with the algorithm reaching a new audience. I typically animate comics that have performed well previously. Reels have tripled my following in the last number of months,” he said. By sharing his comics across platforms like TikTok and YouTube Shorts, Tim ensures his quirky humor connects with as many people as possible.
My grandmother is gone. Tell your grandma that an internet strangers said "Howdy!"
Load More Replies...You keep on that phone, boy! I never got to talk properly to either grandmother, and never met grandfathers (I'm the youngest of a few kids).
Before Caller ID we actually had to identify ourselves on the phone. If Grandma was hard of hearing or if there were many people calling her "Grandma," you'd have to actually say "Hi Grandma this is Joan" etc. Just something many of our younger friends probably haven't even considered 😉
There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this: Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection and defiance are occurring constantly throughout the country. Whole communities and states have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the battle against Trump is everywhere. And even the smallest act of disobedience or protest pushes our lines forward. And then remember this: Trump’s need for control is desperate because it is unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. And know this: the day will come when all these protests, opposition, and moments of disobedience will have flooded the banks of Trump’s authority, and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break his power. Remember this: TRY
Through his comics, Tim hopes to create connections and spark joy. “Insight and joy in everyday things. Share them and use them to connect with others,” he explained. Whether it’s a single-frame comic or a small animated clip, his work reminds us to find humor in the little things and to share those laughs with the people around us.
Yes, and I will be paying him less rent until he has actually repaired it. By law I can pay less rent if the landlord does not repair issues that directly impact my living conditions. My son had a leaky ceiling and the landlord wasn't that quick to repair it. So, my son paid half the rent for 3 months as he was by law allowed to do, send a letter pointing out his rights as a tenant to be reimbursed for the inconvenience, received 3 month's worth of rent and all in all, the landlord paid for my son's holiday to Spain.
I used to do this at a job. We were bought by an American company (the 90s,great, eh?). Wage cheques (or checks) were always late. I stopped coming in to work until I was paid each month. Strangely, they sorted out the problem!

Load More Replies...30 years ago I drove my boss to an important meeting 2 hours away. Meeting was scheduled for only few hours. We arrived at 930. I waited in the lobby. (I didn't have a cellphone yet, only the rich and important people had them) Boss came out of the meeting furious. He explained that they spent the whole time till lunch on just deciding *what to have for lunch*! Then lunch lasted till 3pm. After lunch they "discussed" some "past topics". Around 5pm they finally got to the toppic (travel agency CEO's deciding on formal complaints arbitration) Took 3 hours. So they finally adjourned at 8. Boss said we should go to dinner first, then drove back another 2h. We spent 16 hours on something that required only 7. Initially only got paid 7h. But after I complained about it, the CEO made sure it was corrected and then some. The next month we did the same trip again. After half an hour my boss told the others that they either start the arbitration right now or we'd leave.
Was once flown to a meeting that could have easily been an email. Having something like that where you have to walk down the hall is one thing but to be flown?
I'm only available on days that don't end in a "Y"
Load More Replies...I once attended a meeting regarding some software I was writing. I basically told them what I was doing. Then 6 others told me what they thought I should be doing, which was essentially the same thing. Project manager asked me if tgat was worth the meeting, as I seemed fed up. I said it wasn't worth a whole day's work. He said, but it's only an hour! I replied (did I really need to? Yes.) but 1 hour for 8 people is a day's work!
Why must you curse ? You humor is great. Doesn't get any better with profanity. I will not read you henceforth.
Best to overestimate. Makes people happier when they THINK they're getting the thing sooner than expected. My father does this with bigger tasks on cars. "It might be about three days." Depending on when parts are available and such, he doesn't slack. When he gets it done that afternoon, they're just pleased as punch.

This is why I buy my avocados ahead of time when they are still rock hard. Put them in a paper bag and set them in a dark cupboard for 2-3 days. Perfection and not a single bruise. Put them in the fridge to keep for up to 5 days in the same paper bag. TA-DA

And your alternative method of accessing sensitive information is ... ?

Load More Replies...I feel this so hard. Took me 5 tries to get into my tax site yesterday. The last password contains swearwords..
I have 5 passwords I cycle through that aren't just names/birthday etc. I couldn't get in to my phone account to pay the bill and had to reset password. It had to be a fresh password and it couldn't contain ANY characters from my previous passwords, not even like re use an @! So the password ended up obscenity filled after 50 tries, as it wasn't saying exactly what was wrong with what I was entering. Ughhh

I used my apple pencil to take notes for a long time, and then when I'd use a real pen at work I'd try to double tap the pen to get it to erase things. Didn't work!!
Load More Replies...Yeah, it's awful and has encompassed every food category. I saw pumpkin pie spiced cereal the other day. Blech. It's one thing if it was good, like pumpkin PIE flavored, but the spices are just cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, sometimes anise. Most are really clove heavy and cloying, like an off chai tea. There is a certain subsect of Americans- particularly 50-ish year old women who drive expensive SUVs that have never been offroad, have faux tans, highlighted hair in a bob or ponytail, French manicured acrylic nails, and the voice and volume control of a seagull- who keep buying this c**p to post pics online. Some of the better coffee shops have chosen a Caramel Apple macchiato or toasted Pecan latte as the fall drink this year finally getting away from pumpkin seasoned bile.
Load More Replies...Halloween party items (paper plates and related merchandise) were already up in August in my grocery store. The "holiday" season seems now to begin in July and extends through June.
As someone who recently left the US, this actually makes me nostalgic. I never liked eating pumpkin spice stuff, but not seeing it around put me into a weird withdrawal.
As a non-US citizen this sounds like three things I don't like, all in the same glass. Good - someone else can drink it, then.

You might want to put /s at the end of that so you don’t get downvoted more.

I'm not a coffee drinker, and I didn't see the "Cat Coffee" in the corner at first and just assumed this was a coffee drinker joke I didn't understand! :P Maybe I should drink coffee as I'm clearly not awake!
I am a coffee drinker and I have no idea what this is about
Load More Replies...I had one that read "fired for standing up for what I believe in" under her most recent job which she was at for 3 weeks. The rest of resume was all a month or less at like 8 different jobs. Nope. Not going to spend time training for a week of work before causing drama and getting fired or no-showing. If you have that many jobs in 12 months it's a "You" problem, not the system. (For once)
What if someone got let go because of getting sick for six months? That was me. I got a horrid fungal and bacterial pneumonial sinus infection that took a month to even diagnose. I was working with kids before, so now I know I can't do that anymore lol
