I think this comic ranks one of my favorite yet! Elegant and clever; you've verbalized my views on comforts and 'seeking happiness' in a perfectly concise manner!
Loveeeeees it! (also the Nelly panel made me laugh out loud =) Thank you lucy!
Horny was the invention of porn, being frustrated in love was the design of romance novels.
And here's to prayer, that it may always keep me from my true vice (unless murder becomes legal). However, I don't view your comic as a vice (and thanks for sharing it)!
True, true. I tend to look with a blurry eye on the two, because the direction of both is to affect a reaction (chemical, hormonal... in the pants, whatever), and there can be a greater effect (more boners) in a romance than a straight up image of people doing the deed. I suppose I like that people can choose how to effect themselves, which makes me go "thumbs up" for the concept of "porn" as an overarching umbrella that includes erotica and some romance.
I often wonder if I am handicapping myself by not liking coffee or tea, or even energy drinks. Especially having just starting my second school placement for my teaching course, and all the other teachers have coffee before school and it's like a magic 'on' button, whereas I'm standing staring blankly into space until the kids arrive.
Hear hear to the little comforts though! It's just a shame I can't have a blanket to curl up with in school!
I feel like in some ways the magic "on" powers of coffee must be largely psychosomatic. I enjoy coffee, especially in the mornings, but I don't feel like it does anything to my state of alertness that simply being awake for long enough didn't already. I only started drinking coffee a few years ago though, so maybe it just takes time to become the magic mood enhancer it is for others?
I read/heard that caffeine takes about thirty minutes to actually effect you. Any earlier effects are your mind releasing happy chemicals in anticipation of factual satisfaction.
Sort of like how you cease being hungry when you take that first bite.
As a mild coffee-addict, I can say that sounds more or less right. At least for me, what I seem to like is more the taste or whatever funky chemicals are floating around, than it just being as simple as caffine==love... so it's not quite psychosomatic, but more complex than that. Like anything similar, it's not all that and a bag of chips, though.
I wish I could entirely subscribe to the last panel, but well, February is like that sometimes.
