Tag: Things That Annoy Me
You Can’t Hide Anymore
Technology – making it easier for moms to nag you since like 5 years ago.
Also makes it easier for bosses, exes, and stalkers.
This is my last cartoon for 2012. Hope you enjoyed this year of C-Section Comics, here’s to a better 2013!

Dear Facebook, This is Why I Miss the Old You
Is anyone else here sick of getting promoted posts on their Facebook feed, instead of getting authentic content posted by friends and pages that you like?
Not too long ago, Facebook adopted this policy that resulted in showing you only a fraction of the content your friends post. A lot of content – content which may have interested you – is missing from your feed.
Speaking as a Facebook user, it’s a bummer because I may be missing interesting content and updates that my friends are posting.
And speaking as a Facebook page owner, it’s a bummer because only a fraction of the people who like my Facebook page gets to actually see each of my posts.
Instead, I’m getting promoted content shoved to the top of my feed (as a user), and being constantly asked for money to promote my posts (as a user and a page owner).
Facebook obviously made this change because they expect that people and pages will pay them to promote their contents. Now look, it’s totally fine that Facebook wants to increase their earnings, and it’s also OK to allow users to promote posts for money (to an extent). But for a social network, screening content from your users is… well… stupid.
That’s my opinion. What do YOU think? Let me know in the comments.
The iPad 4
I hacked yesterday’s “No Smoking” comic in order to express my feelings towards Apple’s announcement from yesterday:
In case you were in a coma, Apple announced several new products yesterday, including a fourth generation iPad and a new iPad Mini. The new iPad 4 announcement comes only six months after announcing the previous new iPad, which is now considered by most of your friends as an antique artifact which should now only be used by your grandma as a platter for serving tea and stale biscuits. Thank you Apple.
No Smoking
Remember kids – cigarette smoke and gamma rays don’t mix; cigarette smoke and acting like a wimp work together just fine.
“World No Tobacco Day” (WNTD, a.k.a “International No Smoking Day”) is celebrated on May 31st. Don’t wait for it – quit smoking today. It may just save your life.
HULK SMASH and kisses, C-Section Comics.
