especially if you throw pete to the bears
Load More Replies...Someone tell this guy that those bears only want his depression and that's all
We don't know the context. Maybe Pete's trying to help but misunderstood and sent him into bear country as an assisted "insert removed comment word". I wouldn't agree with that but his misinterpreted intent is kind
As we mentioned before, Bored Panda reached out to Marius, the creator of "Whoops comics," for an interesting conversation on his artistic journey, inspirations, and his unique take on life's mundane realities.
When asked about how comics found their way into his life, Marius shared, "Comics are a big deal in Norway, and there were always comic books and magazines around the house when I grew up. My dad had a big collection of classic stuff like Calvin & Hobbes, The Far Side and Gaston to name just a few of my favorites. I was still a child when I started making my own."
Haha good call I remember it was "everything is better when you're a part of the team
Load More Replies...Too many shiny happy faces working together. What was your first clue it was a cult?
My parents constantly make fun of me and my siblings, they’re all okay with it but I don’t like it, But When I speak up suddenly I gotta “ lighten up” and I’m “ such a literalist”
I like humans. It's just some of them that I'm not particularly fond of.
Load More Replies...Only problem is, he's not gonna have a life to change...very soon >:)
In response to a question about his inspiration, the artist revealed the spontaneous nature of his creative process. He noted, "Ideas can suddenly pop up while I’m reading the news, listening to a podcast, talking to a friend or simply going for a walk and looking around. I get a lot of inspiration from just going through life and figuring out how to be a human who has to pay taxes and shop for groceries. Not to mention the existential dread of simply being alive. Lots of inspiration there!"
He might get mail if he got and cat and changed his name to Pat...
My dad actually IS a postman with a black and white cat! His name isn't Pat though...
Load More Replies...He further elucidated on his artistic journey, stating, "I’ve been drawing my whole life, but it was always silly animals and cartoony-stuff. At thirteen I made my first little animation, and I quickly fell in love with that artform as well and turned it into my job."
The artist also gave us an insight into his comic-creation routine. "Once in a while an idea presents itself already completed in my head and I can pretty much just finish it that same day," he admitted, while also acknowledging that "most of the time, however, I’ll spend many days or even weeks just working out the story and dialogue for a simple comic."
I mean it's not a bad thing to wanna party, right? Definitely not their fault that humans can't float
Well the people should be floating on there cars.Learning how to swimming are float.
Rule #1: Don't share stuff like that with anybody. Rule #2: Don't share stuff like that with anybody. Nobody needs to know where you do your crying. Sometimes I just stand in front of the refrigerator and cry. See? Nobody needed to know that.
I have taken the exact opposite tack and have only folks in my life I *can* share this kinda stuff with. Won't ever go back
Load More Replies...Here’s a silver lining: He can collect the tears in a bucket and shower with them instead. Let it all out, and still save money. Y'know, two birds, one stone. /s
Regarding his humor, he replied, "Thank you! Yeah, I would say the comic strip is a good look into my brain and what I find funny. The themes and topics covered in my comics are things I go around thinking about."
When asked about the impact of comics on readers, he said, "I follow a bunch of webcomics myself and they definitely can have that effect. Bjenny Montero is high up there for me, his work is amazing. I think there can be a mild therapeutic effect when you see something funny and relatable about basic human struggles we all share."
Hmm, all this s**t I bought isn't sparking my joy. Maybe *this* s**t will!
People love their shıt.
Load More Replies...Can't be dead on the inside if you were never alive inside to begin with.
Mine worked for a week, I had a different colour everyday; then I just stopped for some reason, I don't know why...
Did you try swallowing the bulb first? You may still be dead inside, but at least, you won't be empty. /s
See, the issue here is believing you can buy some sort of magic cure for your problems. If any self improvement method would really work there would just be this one. Instead it's a billion dollar industry that lives off of the naïve hopes of people that don't want to face the fact that they have to accept who they are and constantly work with that. Don't listen to those stupid claims, just find some tools that help you deal with yourself.
Us late GenX/early millennials had it right: nihilism is the only true peace.
When speaking of his future plans, he told Bored Panda, "I’ll keep making comics as long as I have fun doing it. I’ve also started playing around with animating some of them, so there will definitely be more of that as well. Stay tuned!"
Finally, on his personal background, he revealed, "I’m from Norway, and I’m a freelance animator and cartoonist." His journey is an inspiring reminder that art can offer both humor and healing, making sense of the chaos of the human condition, one comic strip at a time.
I'm sorry but Joe Rogan is not a sciency podcast, especially the one with RFK Jr. on it.
Joe Rogan is a stupid man's idea of what a smart man looks like.

Anton Petrov on YouTube. Gets me EVERY time. Or PBS SpaceTime. Always a little bummed though. "WHOA! I am super excited to hear about this Supernov... ZZZ ZZZ."
Load More Replies...Ugh, side effects! 😑 It's like every medication commercial you've ever seen. X10 infinity.
Put free bagels on there too. It works all the time, everyone wants something with free bagels
That's living if you ask me. Good dinner, good tv then getting laid. AND no people? He's got it made...
I'm confused, I assume the dog took 'no go lie down' as go to bed. But I'm still confused
Is there like an underlying joke that I'm missing? Cuz all I see is a wholesome meme of a good boy, being a good boy. If that's the case, I 100% approve! If I'm missing a joke, please explain!
they had us in the first half, not gonna lie
Load More Replies...He had to, he wouldn't have picked up the food if he didn't.
Load More Replies...All the drawings are superb ! Having particular emotions ! Especially, the second one, in this group.
I wouldn't trust Norse Gods with horses. Not after the Sleipnir incident atleast...
Load More Replies...Well, this ain't so bad. Look on the bright side.... Wait! There is nothing bright bout this
well the blinding flash from the lightning was pretty bright!
Load More Replies...wtf is this other shìt down here on this level??????
Load More Replies...Oh this is my huge pet peeve and I'm not even italian. If you want to add stuff to the carbonara recipe be my guest but don't call it carbonara. And no, cream is not a part of the recipe. Ugh.
Yeah, by that logic If my grandma had wheels she’d be a bicycle
Load More Replies...As a fish keeper, this KILLS me- That goldfish won’t last a month in there. Goldfish are bigger than people think!
And the biggest one ever was the size of a football! The oldest one was like 45
Load More Replies...Fun fact: even gold fish need a bigger bowl than the ones we commonly put them in as pets
Same… I have a medical excuse at least though lol
Load More Replies...The medicine I’m on for my arthritis makes me sun sensitive, so this is pretty much my life lol
I do not get this. Why is one guy covered in sunscreen and the other guy is on fire and saying what he says?
The person with the sunscreen has so much on that's it's reflecting the sun's rays onto the other person.
Load More Replies...Could that be a reference to "May this house be safe from tigers?
Just them making a joke. Or are we supposed to reference everything now? Are we not allowed to make our own jokes? I thought it was pretty funny, it makes no sense and I like it that way.
Pro tip: don't. This fellow is very strange and possible a bit dangerous. A bit XD
Load More Replies...Of course, one has to provide to the little ones. But what is he protecting them from? If it was dangerous enough to bring *that* on the yard, why are the kids outside in the first place?
Tim!! Stop all this and get hold of yourself. It's not right fighting with innocent people. Not before paying for the drinks
A real alcoholic would have beaten up Tim and drank his booze. Just sayin.
don't give bread to ducks though. don't give it to any birds for that matter.
If they come at me with guns I'll f.ing give them what they want!
Load More Replies...Birds don't have teeth to chew the bread and they can choke on it but they can eat things like grapes and blueberries. They honestly do like small fruit
"Don't you worry good sir, we'd put our beaks to this right away and catch those criminals" "And one more thing i hope there ain't no ginger in those bread, cause i don't eat ginger, just not for me
Sus that both birds stealing and the police birds look like the same breed, and coincidentally, there are the same numbers of birds who stole as well as police birds
Thats racist ! Keep the snail and give him a skateboard !
Load More Replies...Nooooooo, you can't fire him...he has a condition called "Time blindness." This is the BS that the new generation's using as an excuse for being late all of the time. Hahahahahahahaha Hahahahahahahaha, Hahahahahahahaha.
Actually no it shows how self absorbed humans are as a rule and how they will try to show thier morality while ignoring what's actually happening. This is also why I generally hate humans and prefer animals. Lol
Load More Replies...I can't even count how many times I've uses that excuse in the past. Haven't touched a drop since my kidneys died 20 years ago. R.i.p. Mr. Kidneys. R.i.p.
Well, couldn't anyone claim that? Isn't that what they all say?
Or DONT. I want to be able to eat SOMETHING!
Load More Replies...The smell of fresh cut grass is actually the grass screaming and trying to warn the other plants of danger
This is actually *true*. For instance, the smell of freshly cut grass is caused by a stress hormone released upon trauma. That's right; we've all been taking deep, pleased breaths of the death screams of grass.
Insects and plants do not have the nerve system to process pain, so this will never be true
This is going to come as a bit of a surprise! Here's an article to read from the BBC. Just copy and paste or Google it. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20211126-why-insects-are-more-sensitive-than-they-seem
Load More Replies...Of course i know it's you Tom. Why do you think am trying to make a run for it, if i didn't know it's you
Oddly enough, Tom was voted “ most likely to become a stalker” in his class…
PSA: Roger Waters is one of the people who co-founded the band Pink Floyd XD
Even though I'm just a brick in the wall, I'm comfortable numb and I wish you were here so I could welcome you to the machine tbh
Load More Replies...Ive seen Roger Waters live and this is so far fetched. There are guitar solos, note for note solos. People hate in him because they can't stand to look in the mirror of the world and things people allow to happen.
Roger Waters also wrote most of the music. As a fellow bassist I support this post.
This is a myth promoted by Waters himself. Gilmour wrote a ton of the music. I've met Waters. He's a jackass.
Load More Replies...When you order a shot of tequila in a bar, it's "tradition" to get some salt sprinkled on your hand. You lick up the salt, then immediately drink the shot of liquor. The salt is supposed to "lessen" the burn of the alcohol.
Load More Replies...I don't entirely get this one, unless the implication is that he "sold" furs that he didn't already have, and now has to go kill a bunch of animals to collect those pelts?
There's a german(?) proverb "man soll das Fell des Bären nicht verkaufen, bevor man ihn geschossen hat" ,maybe this is what is meant by
Load More Replies...I don't think ducks produce crop milk XD Pigeons and doves do, though, as do flamingoes and the Emperor penguin!
