    Hi, I have been waiting for Dilbert to be funny for as long as it's been in print. Same now if not worse with Commit Strip. I just come away with meh. I think our industry is either YAY it's working or Damn it's still not. Either the people around us or the projects we are on. Neither of which are particularly humorous unless you are such a noob humanoid that breaking down others is funny. Am I alone in this? :Ron

    Please send a link to a video of you tripping over a network cable or something. I've been practicing my Viking guffaw, with some tips from my wife. :-)

      Are there any comic strips that are funny anymore? Either my sense of humor has been dulled by the years or the comic strips used to actually contain comedy which they don't anymore. I remember as a kid, enjoying all of the Sunday paper comic strips...except for Doonsbury, which I never understood. :confused:

      We get older and the jokes aren't new (to us) anymore, so they stop being funny. I noticed that as I matured, the other comics got less funny and Doonsbury got funnier.

      We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

        You have to have a sense of humor to understand Dilbert. :-\ He cracks me up. It's so real to life. He has dry humor, I like it.

        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

        A sense of humor and a job. In my 20s, my friends would look through my Dilbert and complain that they just weren't funny. Then one of them got a real job (ie, not cleaning pools or making pizzas) and suddenly they started to understand Dilbert and why it's funny.

          Dilbert, non Sequitor, and Unshelved are the only three I follow. All three range from outright hilarious to h'uh, I don't get it. Unshelved is Dilbert for librarians.
