Hamsterdunce #61

I plan on doing this with booze. Except for the quitting part.

Hamsterdunce #60

Of course, this will hopefully exclude LEGO blocks... on which I am staking my potential grandchildrens' future.

Hamsterdunce #59

For what it's worth, my Catholic wife would probably not enjoy jew's my harp Christmas carols any better.

Hamsterdunce #58

Just watched "Good Morning Vietnam" again last night, and I guess I'm just wistful for the pre-"Patch Adams" days...

Hamsterdunce #57

My dreams, let me show you them.

Hamsterdunce #56

All three of these films would definitely be in my queue.

Hamsterdunce #55

There are still a lot of folks from our July wedding that Lee-Ann and I haven't thanked yet (you know who you are). I'm sure by the time our anniversary rolls around, they'll have been wished a Merry Christmas.

Hamsterdunce #54

I had a dream last night that my friend Jack showed up to a high school reunion wearing lederhosen. They were orange. Don't ask me how that turned into this; I do not know. But at least I know that I dream in color.

Hamsterdunce #53

So now you know what actual colors we painted our bathroom today...

Hamsterdunce #52

Lee-Ann (who did in fact own a Commodore 64 in her youth) thinks these characters are "too fat." I had to explain that they are, in fact, hamsters, and that hamsters just don't come in particularly svelte sizes.

Hamsterdunce #51

And this also goes for about a million other pointless conversations I've had.

Hamsterdunce #50

Thanks to my friend Randel for the impetus of today's concept. Imp... impuh... whut?

Hamsterdunce #49

Heheh. I just came up with this idea while eating an omelet this morning.

Hamsterdunce #48

For the record, my wife does not knit, nor shall she ever knit. She doesn't nag, either. I think you've got to knit before you really know how to nag.

Hamsterdunce #47

I had a good Thanksgiving this year, made better by knowing that I work from home and this kind of Monday won't be coming for me. Of course, neither will much of a paycheck.

Hamsterdunce #46

You wish it with every fiber of your being, and I draw it. Just like magic!

Hamsterdunce #45

Been working from home for a good six months now, but somehow the corporate wound still hasn't healed.

Hamsterdunce #44

My wife had to help me out tonight; I'm pretty swamped! By the way, that thing coming out of her head is a ponytail. That is all.

Hamsterdunce #43

I think her biggest punishment was probably paid with what could have only been a violently messy childbirth.

Hamsterdunce #42

Fret not, children. The more you think about an eternity in Heaven, the less scary nothingness becomes. Unless of course Heaven has a holodeck.

Hamsterdunce #41

The client is actually a renowned German company called Sidsonic; they want to use some of my artwork for their planned Kontakt soundbank/library of Metasonix noises. Pretty cool!

Hamsterdunce #40

This comic was drawn on a Friday the 13th. But I regardless consider myself lucky to have drawn it. And you get to read it, lucky-loo!

Hamsterdunce #39

Autobiographical, except instead of planting ass in front of the TV, it's planting ass in the office, working on worky work.

Hamsterdunce #38

Of course he has fingers! What do you mean, you can't see them? Meanwhile, ow, this hurts me to type.

Hamsterdunce #37

For my part, I could at least use a new operating system.

Hamsterdunce #36

I'm drinking beer right now. Whodathunkit!

Hamsterdunce #35

Seriously time for an upgrade. I'm thinking about installing a second wheel.

Hamsterdunce #34

The sad thing is, this joke is very probably more than halfway there to being 40 years old already. The idea of holodecks has been around - if my Star Trek nerd memory is correct - since 1987.

Hamsterdunce #33

Because this has happened to me at least a dozen times, I should be three times as old as Jesus by now.

Hamsterdunce #32

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy that extra hour on the beach in the summertime.

Hamsterdunce #31

Happy Halloween from Hamsterdunce!

Hamsterdunce #30 - Guest Strip by Xeth

Guest comic by Xeth Feinberg, artistic liaison for Queer Duck, Hard Drinkin' Lincoln, Bulbo, Patriot Pig, and well, you get the picture. Hilarity.

Hamsterdunce #29

Bearing in mind of course that "herbal enhancements" meant something completely different in 1969.

Hamsterdunce #28

Just venting... I paid this exact amount for the exact same bill today. And there really are some perfectly good woods outside I could be using free of charge.

Hamsterdunce #27

And lo, a flood washed across the internet, and everyone's porn was deleted except for Neo's, who had uploaded and saved his files, two by two. Because, you know, he needed backups.

Hamsterdunce #26

If this comic was drawn right to left, it would have made a lot more sense. Or not.

Hamsterdunce #25

Good old Galactus. He solves everyone's problems.

Hamsterdunce #24

Hello, they're hamsters.

Hamsterdunce #23

Not sure how I feel about the mental structure behind creating this particular comic. I regularly wonder about why caffeine somehow makes Coke & coffee taste different, and for that matter, the odd coincidence that coffee and caffeine are so similarly spelled. I will also regularly ask questions like this to anyone and everyone. But this comic just wrote itself with the punching. It was automatically generated by my brain to have this rambling, inquisitive character punched. My only conclusion is that I annoy the hell out of myself, and like I said, I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Hamsterdunce #22

So around the corner, there's this place that used to be called "Adam's Food Store." They've recently changed their name to "Discount Food Store," retaining all their crappy employees and crappy prices. Their deli won't even be re-opened for another four weeks. But for some reason, because of the name change alone apparently, the place is three times as packed as it ever was. It took me 20 minutes just to buy seltzer, people.

Hamsterdunce #21

Most difficult-to-draw bad pun of all time.

Hamsterdunce #20 - 20-Oct-2009

Here is the twentieth Hamsterdunce comic. Boy oh boy, I figured I'd have quit this thing by now. But no, it is simply too much fun, especially on a day like today when cool guys like Matt "Stretta" Davidson share writing duties.

Hamsterdunce #19 - 18-Oct-2009

These Sunday ones have been really fun. This one features 26 hamsters. Please enjoy the full color hamsters.

And by the way, yes, there are very probably 100 bands out there called "Free Beer." Another good one, I always have thought, is a band called "TBA" (as in "To Be Announced.") For local music news-rags that run band info, bars & clubs will just tell 'em "TBA" if nothing's set in stone yet, so this wuold be a good name for a struggling young band; people might actually believe they're playing like a dozen gigs in one weekend! If you use this idea, you may mail all your excess residuals thusly-like.

Hamsterdunce #18

In all fairness, I do connect with at least half of my ex work friends on Facebook at least once every four months or so... but far, far gone are the days of mopping beer off each other's floors with our beards.

Hamsterdunce #17

My wife is a high school soccer coach, and this is in honor of her team having a tough time their past couple of games...

Hamsterdunce #16

Not at all factual. This Corvette is a 2011 C7, the ring price is massively inflated, and my own wife wants to take out the hot rod more often than I do (at least, when its battery isn't dead).

Hamsterdunce #15

And let's not even get into the fantasies I had in the '80s and '90s; most of them required a holodeck anyway.

Hamsterdunce #14

I'd hate to think that some eons from now I've got to draw all of this again.

Hamsterdunce #13

I haven't moved in two years, but the pain of it is clearly lingering enough to extract comics about it.

Hamsterdunce #12

And in the '80s it was all about Nostradamus, and in the '70s it was all about Menudo, etc.
