We all have our own quirks, traits, preferences, and ways of sharing pieces of ourselves with other people. For the hero of this article, it's creating comics. But he needed a while to realize that.
"I'm an engineer at a well-known global software company," the artist who wanted to remain anonymous told Bored Panda.
"I frequently find myself making observations about life that I feel most other people either don't notice or want to admit. That's how I came up with the name [for my comics series, Sobering Mirror.] I'm holding up a metaphorical mirror to the reader, and the realization that they can see themselves in my jokes is – you guessed it – sobering."
Until his attempts at comedy become more widely recognized, he'd prefer not to be known as 'the guy who makes weird webcomics' at the office. So for now, let's just call him Engineer.

I few years ago something similar happened to me. It was Sunday night and I go to sleep thinking "ugh I have to go to work tomorrow". But then I have a dream that it's Saturday and it's so vivid that I turn my alarm off and continue to sleep. My boss calls and she's like "where the hell are you? are you coming?" and me still being in the dream state and thinking it's Saturday I reply "fine... I'll come even though I don't have to". I reluctantly get up and then it hits me! She was totally cool though and we had a laugh when I explained what had happened!
It’s sad to think that I probably won’t be close with my now best friends in the future
Life is boredom, pain, loneliness, misery and disappointment. But if you don't bother hope, you can avoid disappointment.
the secret is.................................................................MONEY
Because being human is difficult and it helps a lot of people to take their most insecure thoughts or painful experiences and turn them into humor. For example, I love George Carlin.
These are good but tbh this whole "life is misery" schtick on BP is getting old.
