Hubris- Pick A Tree

Nov28

by Greg Cravens on November 28, 2022 at 6:45 am

Chapter: Comic

The local Bass Pro Shop has a swamp in it. There’s fish in the water, and Spanish moss and all. I think the trees are fiberglass, but that’s fine.

They used to have more boats on the water inside the store, so prospective boat buyers could actually stand on the floating boats and scope ’em out and all.

I heard the reason they don’t do that is that there are WAY more children than there are prospective boat buyers.

Sportsmart must have had a similar issue when setting up their amazing indoor forest. Lots more people looking for the bathrooms in a giant store than there are people who want to practice putting up a tent.

Hubris- Jimmy On The Spot

May09

by Greg Cravens on May 9, 2022 at 1:01 pm

Chapter: Comic

Oh, it’s always like this, isn’t it? You take a new job, and it’s never quite what you were expecting.

You figured the boss would show up, and that you’d be welcomed by the other employees… and instead, you wind up standing in a parking lot with some dodgy looking stains here and there, and keeping an eye on the dodgy looking van (it might BE a dodge- can’t tell past the rust) parked all by itself next to the single light pole in the lot, and having to call and wake up the boss, and find that the new employees never heard of you… Oh, it’s all great fun and adventurous.

Hubris- The Gift Of Gab

Jul30

by Greg Cravens on July 30, 2021 at 3:33 am

Chapter: Comic

Enis can talk his way into and out of anything. Just ask him! He’ll tell ya. And tell ya. And tell ya.

I’ve met a few people like that. Look ya in the eye and tell you something that just… isn’t … so. But because they believe it for the moment, and because they expect you to believe it because they said it, and there’s that personal charm or charisma or psychic evil power or whatever they got, you sorta feel like you’re not just supposed to just walk away thinking “Poor stupid imbecile. I hope he doesn’t hurt himself.”

And you get drawn into the crazy.

Chapter: Comic

Just who are we most threatened by, here? Enis? David? Paste? Hometeam? David’s investment group?

Heck no… just don’t get Dorothy involved, for heaven’s sake.

Hubris- Minding One’s Business

Jul03

by Greg Cravens on July 3, 2018 at 12:01 am

Chapter: Comic

Let’s say “thanks” to all the worriers of the world. They’re the reason we have helmets, inspections, accountants, public address systems, insurance, and people minding the store. And ulcers. They also gave us all ulcers. They had them first, of course, and wanted to make sure the rest of us had them, too.

Also, Thanks to you guys for the birthday wishes, and thanks, Bic, for resubmitting your application!

Hubris- Feelers

Apr24

by Greg Cravens on April 24, 2017 at 12:01 am

Chapter: Comic

So, I’ve got this doctor thing tomorrow. And I can’t have caffeine all day today, right? So, I haven’t.

There’s probably a conclusion to that idea, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out what the hell it is.

Time is all weird, and I can feel the great grandmother of all headaches coming, I feel like I need a nap, and by tomorrow morning, when I haven’t had enough caffeine to make a neuron jiggle, I’m supposed to do some kind of stress test and run on a treadmill.

And I bet I know what the result of the test will be. That I can never have sweet, sweet caffeine again.

Goodbye, thoughts. It’s been nice having you.

Hubris- Dream Scheme

Apr15

by Greg Cravens on April 15, 2016 at 12:01 am

Chapter: Comic

So, changing the story arcs. Gotta swing the increasingly bulky craft around, aim it in a new direction, and get under way. Hard to do without getting a little maudlin. Hopefully, today’s cartoon is a quick enough turnaround, as we sail into the next chapter.

Anybody want to make a request? Now would be the time. I’ve got a framework to hang things on, and as soon as I start filling in details, you psychics will start figuring out where I’m going. You might as well start telling me what I’m going to write and save me a lot of extra work.

I’ll give you a clue- I’m finally getting around to a previous request for a particular kind of bike race. Fire up the crystal balls.
