Magnet love is complicated.

September 4th, 2008 · 32 Comments


I asked Derrick, a friend of mine nerdier than I (always a good policy when looking for info) about the validity of my comic. He said, “Repulsive magnetic force. Blah, blah, blah, science.” which didn’t really help me. So I went to Wikipedia.

You should go check out the entry for Magnet.

One more thing, let’s make today a delurking day. If you surfed by and read the comic, go ahead and leave a comment. It doesn’t have to be a long one, or a nice one. Here are some copy/pasteable, ready-to-use comments if you’re having trouble coming up with one.

“Hi.”

“Hi, I love your comic.”

“Hi, I hate your comic.”

“Hi, I don’t get your comic.”

“Hi, I don’t really have a strong opinion about your comic, but it sure beats working.”

    de-cloaking and saying “i like your comic”.

  • 3 Craig // Sep 4, 2008 at 3:40 pm

    That’s the meanest girl magnet I’ve ever seen!

    this was, by far, the first comic i’ve read today.

    Not sure what to think? But you can’t say I am lurking. I have been reading these. I just haven’t figured them out yet.

    In the last frame, clearly the girl magnet is sucking the boy magnet’s will to live. It makes me sad.

  • 10 Lauren // Sep 4, 2008 at 6:46 pm

    Shouldn’t the boy magnet be blue, if we’re going with stereotypes?

  • 11 Credit Union Warrior // Sep 4, 2008 at 7:02 pm

    Lolzies are magnetic, baby!

  • 12 Derrick S. // Sep 4, 2008 at 7:02 pm

    Again I say, “Blah, blah, blah, science”. Oh, that and, “lol”.

  • 13 Will Chill // Sep 4, 2008 at 7:08 pm

    I like the magnet shadow legs.

  • 14 Daniel W. // Sep 4, 2008 at 7:25 pm

    I think the magnet on the left definitely looks like you, Charlie.

  • 15 Mark O'Polo // Sep 4, 2008 at 8:56 pm

    It really does beat working!

  • 16 Josh // Sep 4, 2008 at 9:19 pm

    Man. Now I HAVE to leave a message when I read these? This reminds me of when I’m sitting in church and the pastor looks right at me and asks me a question. And then I have to say something that made it seem like I got everything that he said up to that point.

    The comic was kinda cool and at the same time weird.

    The thing here was, the nice red magnet was hoping for an “AND” but before he knew it it became a “XOR”. Poor guy.

    This comic has science written all over it… down to the sound magnets make when they repel one another.

  • 18 Ben Hastings // Sep 5, 2008 at 11:58 am

    Someone on pleonast had a link to your stuff. Some of it was pretty funny, so I’m a subscriber by RSS.

    Keep ‘em coming!

  • 23 Ben Rogers // Sep 7, 2008 at 7:03 pm

    I lurk your comic all the time, Chaz. Time I owned up to it.

  • 24 Aaron // Sep 7, 2008 at 10:11 pm

    I only ever have one comment. But since you insisted… I wanna see posted the comics you drew when we were kids!!!!

  • 25 Nala // Sep 8, 2008 at 10:32 am

    I like that your boy magnet is a SERIOUS ginger.

  • 26 Nathanael // Sep 8, 2008 at 8:57 pm

    You should do another one with horseshoes that looks almost exactly the same, except when they hold hands, nothing happens, because they’re horseshoes, not magnets.

  • 27 Nathanael // Sep 8, 2008 at 8:59 pm

    P.S. I clicked on all the ads so you can get rich quick.

  • 28 Charlie Trotter // Sep 9, 2008 at 11:46 am

    Wow! Thanks for all the comments everyone! It really means a lot to hear from you. De-lurking day was a success!

    PS: Everyone scroll up in this thread and go check out Neale Bryan’s site. It’s amazing.

  • 29 Timbo // Sep 9, 2008 at 11:52 pm

    De-lurking is de-lightful! Or whatever.

    P.S. Doh!! I just got Hick-rolled. I should have smelled that coming. :(

  • 30 Cherish // Sep 19, 2008 at 10:29 pm

    haha

    yay, science!

  • 31 Cheryl // Sep 24, 2008 at 6:32 pm

    I never knew magnets could be so heartless.

    and yes. I also got hick-rolled. sneaky
