“The Case of the Team Spirit (Bad Machinery, #1)”

“Before you read this, don’t be the idiot that I am. Things felt a little disjointed at first, and when I looked into it I figured out this is a webcomic that got bookified. So each page is its own standalone comic. Yeah, they contribute to a larger whole quite nicely, but it’s meant to be read as a regular serial in its original form.

Like I said, don’t be the idiot that I am.

This would be a good PSA.

Hi. I’m an idiot. And I’m here to tell you that Don’t Be An Idiot Like Me. Don’t believe me? What if I told you that I frequently run to Target for a specific item and leave with things like wooden spoons and zebra duct tape and WITHOUT the one item I actually needed? What if I told you that a dedication to a new pair of sweatpants with a hole in the pocket the size of my fist has caused me to do what I call the Cold Keys Dance at least a dozen times, a dance which is the series of hip and thigh movements a person makes when he puts a cold set of keys in his pocket and then feels the rush of them down his bare thigh? What if I told you that I’ve been using an iPod with a severely cracked screen for about a year and that the screen became cracked after I ran it over with my own car on accident? What if I told you that a few weeks ago I spilled almost an entire box of Mike&Ikes under a dryer at the laundromat and was convinced I could smell a cooked fruitiness in my washed clothes after they dried and the dryer heated up the candy?

Kay? So don’t be like me. Don’t be an idiot.

Also, here’s a favorite from Bad Machinery, which is available online.
