Unmasking The Absurdities Of Life In My 35 Bizarrely Ironic Comics
Hello there! I'm Dan, the individual behind the comic brand "Barely Baked Beans." I'm just an average guy with a knack for spotting the humorous and ironic aspects of everyday life, which I love to make light of and share through my comics.
I've always had a strong affinity for comics, especially "The Far Side," which inspired me to create a visual platform for my jokes. If you don’t remember, "The Far Side" was a ground-breaking comic that showed just how much humor and creativity could be packed into a single panel. It showed me that you can be funny and creative without necessarily adhering to conventional ideas of what's normal or acceptable.
So with that inspiration and plenty of learning and perseverance, I gradually crafted my own unique style which, like “The Far Side”, tries to incorporate a sense of surrealism and absurdity. I like to take ordinary situations and give them a twist or a surprise ending that the reader might not expect. Also, like Gary Larson, I often use non-human characters in my comics, anthropomorphizing them to make them more relatable, surprising, or humorous (or all three at once).

The whole "fish don't feel physical pain" thing is a myth. Fishes don't have neuro receptors similar to humans which are responsible for any sensation, including pain. However, they do respond to pains in ways similar to humans indicating that there must be some other pain receptors. So we don't know for sure what happens, but something does happen

I really enjoyed these. Original and very funny I especially loved the completely surreal "naked man in the fridge" one.

Many of these were pretty funny. I just wish one of these could be described as something like "Random Silliness" instead of something like "Unmasking The Absurdities Of Life In My 35 Bizarrely Ironic Comics." There doesn't have to be promises of deep meaning and social angst ...every... single... time...!
