Intro to cyanide

I totally forgot to mention in the previous 2 comic strip posts that they have been inspired by the comic strip - Cyanide and Happiness. I did not realize that many people might know about it. (check Bhushan's comments on my chatbox! No Bhushan, I am not going crazy!! I just happen to be a Cyanide fan :D)

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about this kinda humour:

The style of Cyanide and Happiness is best described as dark, cynical, often offensive, and exceedingly irreverent. Frequent topics of humor include disabilities, rape, cancer, murder, suicide, necrophilia, pedophilia, sexual deviancy, sexually transmitted diseases, self-mutilation, nihilism and violence. The comic does not always have a definite punchline in each strip, or may have several panels of "awkward silence" after (or instead of) the punchline, with characters simply staring at each other.

Try reading the comic. It seems that very few people enjoy it and hence are unable to appreciate the humor present. I personally find it hilarious :D
A big thanks to Arnold for introducing me to Cyanide :) My dream of making at least one comic strip has already been realized :D and yes, I will try to think of my very own comic strip with my very characters :D

Anyone interested is most welcome to collaborate.

But today I cry in pain."

It has been a really frustrating day. I didn't know Fridays could screw you like it did today.
I thought Fridays were everyone's friend! But its been a fiend to me.

I feel lost .. feel a loss .. a loss far greater than it seems to others.
Despite the fabulous appraisal today, I feel I have failed somewhere. This was not supposed to happen.
I was supposed to live a very fulfilling and fruitful life. 

Yes, I know I am not dead yet. But someday I will be. And on that day, just moments before I head to the other world, I don't want to regret this loss.

And now its price I have to pay."

It's not that hard to imagine.

So here I am .. standing at the bus stop .. waiting for the uncomfortable vehicle to come pick me up for work at 7.30 am .. my colleague Craig starts talking about one of his projects .. and about his onsite manager .. the work relates to Bank of Switzerland ..

Craig: I don't know why I always end up calling it Bank of Scotland instead of Bank of Switzerland!?

me: maybe coz deep down u can feel scotland calling u..... bagpipes start playing .. scottish bagpipers in kilts surround the scene .. the scottish winds blow all the way to you and coo softly in ur ears only to entice u into flying away with them ..... to the faaaaar away land of Scots!

Craig: er .. its coz the onsite manager is scottish and my name is of scottish origin .. atleast that's what she said!

me: phew... That was deep!

Craig: stares at the long road behind us .. as though lost in reverie .. scottish reverie?

i know ...... here comes the bus da ..

and we both climb into the damned and massive container .. heady from the all the morning talk and not enigma playing on our iPods.

PS: For those who didn't understand the connection between the comic strip and the above episode .. well .. I am not explaining it!!
