Cartoon artist Adam Ellis claims he left art school after a fellow student presented her final project to the class, declaring "I put a condom on the Virgin Mary," and the professor loved it. Fast forward in time, and now Ellis has just ended another chapter of his life. He left his corporate job at BuzzFeed to pursue his cartoonist dreams, fully concentrating on personal projects. His followers applauded Adam's decision to exchange security for freedom, and have been eagerly waiting for more and more of his funny comics ever since.

Ellis has made a name for himself creating relatable and funny comic strips, and has even published Books Of Adam: The Blunder Years, a set of "hilarious trials and tribulations in attempt to become a functioning member of society." His collective Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter fan base exceeds 3M, making the author one of the most famous cartoonists on the internet.

    i drew a cartoon once that was this movie but from the point of view of new york. It's just a guy in a taxi waiting but then giving up when the ship never arrives. I called it 'Jack's Taxi'.

    This happened to me. When I was a child I had three very good friends. One day I wanted to play with all of them together. Soon they all become best friends and left me alone. No one of them wanted to play with me anymore. I did not find any new friends so I had to spend my teenage years alone. :(

    Mixer taps are great because the water will be always the same temperature where you left it last time. I don't understand why those are not popular in all countries.

    This has actually happened to me before when a friend gave me a 1 LB bag of Sour Patch Kids. The coarse sugar actually started working as sandpaper on my tongue and on the roof, but even finding that they were bleeding and the sour flavor was like a lemon in the wound, I did not COULD NOT stop, and finished the bag in immense pain.

    Give a dog a treat, and he snaps your finger off. give a treat to a cat, they sniff it for 5 minutes while you stand there like a fool. Then they decide they don't want it, like you're trying to poison them.
