I figured great, now I've got 3 hours of which I'll be doing pretty much nothing. I've called Dell and other tech support lines before and I hate them. It's stupid what corporations will do to try to cut corners to save money. But nothing bothers me more than voice recognition automated answering machines. They were created by Satan himself and their sole purpose is to aggravate us to the point that we either A kill ourselves or B. Suffer an aneurysm so massive that blood shoots out of our ears, eyes and mouth before we fall to the ground and die (that was the original sketch but I went with the suicide instead).

As soon as I was done with tech support I said I was going to make a comic out of it, I was actually writing it while I was talking to them. This one will be a 3 parter I got all of the pencil work done so I'll be updating this week on time and from here on out.

I'm using the time I'm getting off this week to get ahead on the comic and start working on the other ones I'm putting out. This will be a test of endurance I'm basically putting out a comic the size of the Christmas comic every month from here on out. Lets see how that goes eh?

See you next year
