Even after all these years, I recognized this as Saturday morning breakfast cereal!
I had a dream once where a woman grabbed my head, looked me in the eye, and said “when you wake up I won’t exist.”
Freaked me out
I had a dream where I was in a group project back in high school, and I was apologizing to all of my group mates because I knew it was a dream and I was gonna wake up soon and leave them with all the work.
Oh my god, are you okay? That's one of those you never let go of.
He's okay, it's the woman who's in trouble here.
I wonder if he ever woke up. This is sad.
I hope he did, because if he didn't then that means we're inside his dream too.
In which case we need to make sure he never wakes up.
Maybe that's why right wingers are so anti-woke, they're worried they're part of someone else's dream ...
But they were alive in my head and my existence is only validated by my perception. Thus, they were real. I perceived therefore I experience reality.
I dunno. I'm not like a philosopher or anything
Since OP decided not to post it, here's the extra text:
"This is one of those comics that causes a bunch of readers to check in on my mental health, isn't it?"
I much prefer when OPs include it in the description.
Did not know SMBC features extra text, but in my defence I've linked the source
It would do you honour to link to the source, too. It is not that hard.
Ah, sorry. My apologies. Thanks for linking it though, that's great. I do recommend checking out the extra text (I think it's on every comic), it's sometimes better than the comic haha. Sorry again, I shouldn't have assumed you knew about them.
No worries, I've learned something new 👌
My eldest lad is growing up too fast - he's got lots of hobbies, one of which needs a lot of fitness so I try and get out with him once a week for a half hour run - partly to introduce him to cardio training but mainly to just get some time alone with him before he realises his dad is an arsehole.
It's great. Admittedly, he's just "Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox Roblox can we go to the shop Roblox Roblox" but it's time with him to talk to me about whatever he wants and it's time that I absolutely adore. I hope when (if) he chooses to have kids, he'll look back and think "hey that was some decent dad time I had outside the house".
I'm also secretly hoping that if he's ever going through a rough time in life that he's keeping to himself and we're still out banging miles into the tarmac, then somewhere between "what's your favourite Grow Your Garden pet?" and "I just got a badge in Doors for using a crucifix on door 69 while getting chased by rush", there'll be a little breadcrumb or hint at a drama that we can talk about and ease his mental health just a tiny bit.
Who knows. A dad can hope.
Awwww. A caring dad. They will see and remember this.
Honestly I'd be happy if they remember it and adopt the same approach to spending time with folk - whether it be their friends, colleagues, maybe even their own bairns in due course.
Heart breaking
Reminds me of the self aware board game commercial family on Community.
Couldn't remember it so I had to look it up. https://youtu.be/lMW58MiSLe0
Sounds like a rewatch is due!
Hold up. I've watched the whole series, twice. Yet I've never seen that 'advert'!!?! I'm confused.
It's from the end of the last episode, between the #andamovie hashtag and the credits.
Thank you.
you stupid child
They are having the best day of its life, for ever.
You woke up with a memory of this day but it never happened.
Worse, they were AI generated.
Young Zach was really going through some shit, huh?
