I think what people don’t get is they talk loudly. I have nothing against people doing a call in public, but when it’s an appropriate volume. You don’t need to yell. Don’t put it on speaker phone.
I often see it on the bus, and it’s infuriating. The worst part? You can make perfectly good phone calls at normal voice volume as demonstrated by my work colleague doing it
Oh and also… Please don’t put tiktok or your music at full volume. Either put on earphones or wait till you’re off the bus. Respect the others
I get the irritation, too. But, to me, the fact that the comic’s reaction to people talking loudly in public is to shoot them. It’s like it was made by a 14 yo edgelord and the trenchcoat and hat is the cherry on top. I’ve just grown out of that phase, unfortunately. Good on OP for sharing their comic though. It takes guys to do that.
Also getting defensive about your flopped comic and calling people dumb isn’t going to look good.
Personally I think it’s fine? It’s cartoonishly over the top and I’ve done stuff like that as well. And after a long day at work the last thing my autistic ass needs is getting overwhelmed by a yeller so I get the sentiment.
Although I can’t and won’t excuse the artist’s responses. I know it can be sad to see your hard work not paid off, but that’s not a reason to lash out. Just learn what sticks and what doesn’t. And continue making the same thing if you like seeing the world burn
For me it’s not outlandish enough, so it doesn’t come off as a joke but as a whiny little bitch in a trench coat getting irrationally angry about some noise probably at a shitty coffee shop that’s not even specifically for quiet time. Just drink at home if it bothers you so much wtf. OPs bullshit responses don’t help either. At least the opinions seem nearly evenly split according to the vote count.
Eh… I’ve been here. A comic I spent hours on giggling to myself flops hard while lukewarm relatable humour gets boosted up… But meh. As long as I make one person smile, I consider my job done. My comics are shitposts, so I gotta expect that
But here I think it’s actually fixable (as much as I hate this word in the context of art). If you make the text bigger and bolder, it’ll convey better that the sound is loud.
Yep, but in this case it has to be with the non-stop talking, rather than people who speaks like they were using a megaphone. The inspiration came from a situation like this one in a coffee shop, when there was a guy speaking louder than he should, but not super loud. However, the most annoying part was that this individual never stopped his conversation, and he didn’t stop even to take a breath-in. And when he finally hung up, then he decided to make another call, and start his never-ending speech again. That’s why the text is not bigger, but instead is too extensive, not even fitting in the speech bubble. The idea behind it was to transmit a guy who never stops talking, annoying everybody in the room. But of course I respect your opinion, based on your answers, I can tell you’re smart ^^

Modern microphone technology including the algorithms picks up even quiet talking quite crispy and clear.
Noone needs to shout like it’s a 1950 land line.
Of course I do! I’m on speakerphone and holding the phone an arms length away from my face for some reason.
Finally somebody who understands!! It’s pleasant to see that there’s still people with a working brain like yourself :)
