Hi! You may have seen some of my comics over the internet (maybe) or here on Bored Panda before but if you haven't... hi! I'm @relatabledoodles.
I draw relatable comics about the everyday "problems" in life (some are exaggerated for comical effect).
Hope you nod along, chuckle a little or perhaps say "yo that's me" to some of these comics.

mothers seem to have a sixth sense and always walk in when you have a quick break just to complain that you're not doing anything >.<
I think the worst of this is when English professors try to read things like, the Oedipal complex into Shakespeare plays and the like - Freud was WRONG, dammit! Psychoanalysis is a pseudoscience mostly based off of pre-scientific psychology and assumptions. Most people don't work that way (Hell, Oedipus didn't work that way)!
I used to think that too (before I took English) but now I kinda think it's fascinating, even if it's reading into things that aren't there. It's real fun and as long as you enjoy it and get good grades for it - XD

Haha I've always thought about things like that when I had to analyze poetry and other texts.
Ugh I couldn't stand my English teacher :( Yes, writers will specially select certain things, but not everything has a hidden meaning. It's like every English teacher is a conspiracy theorist xD
The point of looking for a hidden meaning is to make you actually think

I love English and writing, so I find it fascinating to look into these things, however, it's true that sometimes English teachers do read too much into it. Once, for an English class, we had to write a dialogue and my teacher printed mine out and passed it to the class then held a discussion with my classmates to try to figure out all the "clues" that I had inserted in there. In the end, when he asked me what the right answer was, I had to say that I never thought that much about it when I was writing it and most "clues" were completely unintentional and meaningless.
You don't know if it's unintentional and meaningless, that's why you're supposed to do things like, I don't know, think.

But at times, I write such a terribly wrong spelling that even Google gives up. :-/
I just say "haha" for everything I find funny. I just don't go over that because that's a bit much for me.
"I was just pondering that question myself teacher... what a great question... let me know when you've got the answer!" *runs off*
