Matt Shirley can make something very complicated look incredibly simple. This guy draws graphs about everyday life situations that could be easily understood even by pre-schoolers who have just started reading. On the other hand, Matt's creations have enough insight to be taught on a university level. See "Existence In A Modern Western Society 101," for example.

The guy is devoted to producing a graph a day and boy does he seem to have loads of ideas. From explaining the closed cycle of adulthood to decoding the pros and cons of first date locations, Shirley's analysis cuts to the core of day-to-day things in the funniest possible way. Scroll down to examine the amusingly clever graphs and vote for your favorite ones!

    Sadly, they forgot the part where you redo all the arguments you had the previous days and how you could have had better answers and seem brilliant or funny.

    Hahaha, this reminds me, once some "gentleman" added me on Facebook for "no reason". I asked him why he added me. He said he liked me. I said "what do you like?" and he answered "I like your arms, they look soft". WTF.

    This is why I pirate all my music. No commercials, no crappy songs, no DRM. (And before you shame me for doing it, just know that the number of dollars I spent on said music is equal to the number of f***s I give.)
