I've been drawing comics quietly for 9 years now. After having many of them re-posted across the internet, I thought I'd step out of the shadows and curate some of my favorites so I can hear your reactions.

I'd be very happy to get out in my thirties - just in case it was moving really fast. Would not want to be a child EVER again. Or a teenager.

The background check and security clearance for Jonathan must have been quite intense!

It's the American response too. Your arm could be dangling by a tendon but if someone asks how you are, the response is, "Fine, and you?"

Not much of a friend. Unless the guy is a hypochondriac.

Hate that question. If you are not interested, don't ask!

One of my big peeves, don't ask if you're not really interested.

Happened to me in high school: One day on the hallway a teacher asked me how I was, it was something similar to this conversation up there (not that I had big problems as far as I remember, I only wanted to give a more detailed response with my little problems than the teacher expected); the other day (or the day before, I don't know anymore) it was the other way around: another teacher also on the hallway asked the same question I said I was OK but they kept asking how I'm *really* wanting a more detailed response but I wasn't in the mood for it and was really OK at the moment.

A doctor pulled that on me once; he said how are you and I told him. He said; "You're supposed to say 'I'm fine, how are you"

I hear ya! I’ve been confused about how much to tell people for years. Now, at age 60, I feel that we are not supposed to have candid conversations about ourselves at all. So much for just commiserating.

Protip: Never ask a question that you don't want to hear the answer to.

If you ask how someone is doing they are justified to say how they actually are

Should have just said Hi, Hello, or Aloha. 99% of the People who ask "How are you" are not interested in hearing your answer. The real friends who are interested in your life will ask in a different way than say "how are you?"

This is just so true. Don't tell your problems. People wan't to hear "I'm fine". Not problems.

You are saying " the British response and the Swedish response" if you wanted the American response it would take them a week to tell you and after they had finished you would go out and hang yourself.

Whenever my English teacher gets asked the question, he tells them /exactly/ how he’s doing at that point in time. It’s hilarious.

In NY it's a casual hello too, no one really gives a s**t how you are. Don't bring us down with your problems unless you're a good friend.

If you have serious problems in your life do NOT dump them on friends and aquaintances - they will feel uncomfortable at best - even close friends when there is nothing they can do to help. Save it for those whos job it is to listen and provide expert advice - even if just a helpline or a voluntary service.

I disagree; a real friend won't see you and your problems as a burden.

Hmm - very glad that this circumstance will never come up! How can you remember birthdays and NOT your wedding anniversary? I don't get it and yet there is my husband, a walking cliché!

This is why you need to specify what you want to get famous for. I totally didn’t know that when I was younger.,

I've seen a similar one which was equally as funny (not that I'm suggesting it's copied - people can have the same idea) but this one is much better drawn.

Good visual pun ending but in one the upper panels, the money should have been screwing HIM.

Judging by the fact that he didn't even try to run, I think that he also was indecisive. No, seriously, I know that I'll be downwoted (again...), but it really irritates me that this is always the girl who is portrayed undecisive and demanding one. It also works the other way... :(
