Comic Transcript

ALEX: Mark, is that really your mom?

MARK: Yep.

BOSS: Woman, I am far older than you are!

MARK'S MOM: I doubt that. You have a very young voice.

KING: She's really good at destroying expensive equipment.

MARK: Family trait.

BOSS: I am!

MARK'S MOM: It's not polite to lie.

KING: Ah.

BOSS: I am not polite! I am an ancient evil that has existed since before the dawn of time!

MARK'S MOM: Fiddlesticks.

MONK: So what do you want to do for lunch!

MARK: That depends on whether or not this gets me fired.

BOSS: I have had enough of this! I am coming in! Prepare to face my wrath!

(Silence.)

MARK: I am so fired.

BOSS: I believe your mother has escaped through our ventilation system.

"Desperately Unfunny."
- Someone on Dean's World

"The artwork is lame and repetitive, the 'jokes' are either inside software industry jokes or thinly disguised anti-capitalist rantings."
- Someone else on Dean's World

"Are there really 80 people who find any reference to Microsoft in a web comic funny?"
- Someone on Reddit

"Why has this been running since 1996? Who actually reads it? Who is the idiot who reads it every day and posts the 'good' ones up on reddit? Doesn't he realize he is wasting his time?"
- Someone else on Reddit

"My god, my eyes are bleeding now. To think that there are comics out there which are worse than User Friendly is every way, when User Friendly was already pretty bottom-of-the-barrel in all departments!"
- Someone on Slashdot (With apologies to User Friendly, who got hit in the crossfire.)

"I'm burying this alive. Oh, look. Digg's comment window is jumping up and down in excitement. It's like it's nodding and agreeing with me. Yay."
