Hubris- Fake it ’til the others Make it

Nov14
by on November 14, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

You know those times when you have enough expertise to hear a phrase that just doesn’t connect correctly?  I think “I need to get a pair of skis real quick” is one of those.  Skiers would hear that and think… that’s not enough information. There’s something wrong there.  I’m not saying that I’m the one with enough expertise to hear the words and spot that they don’t jibe.  I’m saying that I’ve been the completely uninformed dunce often enough to hear that sound in other people’s voices.

Hubris- Happy, happy

Nov11
by on November 11, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

There is an old saying, “If mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.”

“Mama” could be a lot of different people, depending on who you are.  Including yourself.

Hubris-That’s not what the ads say.

Nov07

Chapter:

Seriously.  Some folks never seem to realize that ‘being happy just like you are’ is even an option.  I mean, most of US have figured it out, but SOMEBODY’s buying that stuff in the weird ads in the snooty fashion magazines.

Throwback Thursday- Climb-ate Change

Nov03
by on November 3, 2016 at 5:17 am
Chapter:

Today’s cartoon just got left alone and was eventually left behind.  I think I had intended to write a little two or three day story arc to hold it, and never got around to it.  So I suppose it’s ‘missing footage’ of some early date between Kara and Hubris.  Enjoy.

Hubris- Outrunning the Calories

Oct26
by on October 26, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

It doesn’t actually take much math to figure out that you can’t out-exercise your own eating. I read, years ago, that the amount of energy (measured in calories, of course) that you get from two whopper meals was equivalent to the energy burned, more or less, running the Boston Marathon. That’s kinda horrifying. And it explains my gut.

Hubris- Flag on the Play

Oct25
by on October 25, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

Ever had a smoker smile knowingly and tell you to never start smoking? It’s that confident self-awareness that turns up occasionally that I like. If you need ME to be completely self-aware, there’s a problem. I can’t see past my own giant cartoonist ego. I’m sure that I’m back there somewhere, though. I’m probably a really nice guy, too. I’ll let you know, as soon as anyone finds out.

Hubris- Now THAT’S Worser.

Oct24
by on October 24, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

Funny story for you- My brother wore a wrist-to-ankle jumpsuit, gloves, boots, and a big rubber mask around Halloween (Now called “Cosplay for Candy.” You heard it here first). He did a funny thing at a local park’s party where they had piles of hay bales, scarecrows, and pumpkins as decorations. He flopped face down in a pile of hay that some kids had left strewn around in their ongoing straw fight through the park. When the kids ran back around to his pile of hay, one of them grabbed him by the foot, thinking he was one of the scarecrows that they were swinging around at one another. As the kid reached for his foot, my brother jumped up and yelled, “Aaargh!”

The kid fell straight backward from his heels as his scarecrow bludgeon came to life and shrieked. I have personally never seen anyone so stunned as that before or since, and that includes people who were unconscious before they hit the floor.

Hubris- Testing the Limits

Oct21
by on October 21, 2016 at 12:01 am
Chapter:

I wasn’t going to draw Lowell trying to seat himself at the table with everyone. You can imagine it every bit as well, and maybe better, than I could have drawn it for you. Eww, you got a filthy mind.

Throw ’em out Thursday

Oct20
by on October 20, 2016 at 6:38 am
Chapter:

Okay, here’s a DOUBLE DUTY Throwback Thursday.   Brian is a Patron, as in “he went to the Patreon page and became a Patron.” And so, he gets a thing.  In this case, the thing is the only Hubris skydiving cartoon I can recall doing.  I don’t think I ever colored it and put it on the site, even though it’s from the syndicate packages that I did back around 2001, so it’s been available to be on the site for a long time.  Anyhow, Brian is a skydiver and he’s a Patron at the level where you get yourself an autographed original Hubris cartoon, so he gets it.  You guys get a photo of it.

But of course, you could go to the Patreon page, become a Patron, and get things for yourselves.
