You would think there would be a lot of clip art involving people in an office environment, and there is. But most of it sucks. Cartoon bald guy overreacting to some piece of paper he’s holding, and that kind of bleck. I can’t use most of it.
Enter the ninja. Enter Brian Wilson, creator of Geist Panik, a webcomics artist so badass he once had to suspend his updates because he was deployed to the goddamn Middle East. That’s right, he’s a webcomics guy and an active duty soldier.
I wrote this script from a conversation I had with ShoEbox, who I think is back to being tied with my friend Sora for most conversations leading to a PartiallyClips. Brian did the art by request, and then I completely rewrote the script to make full use of the very fine art.
With friends like these, who needs to work? Thank you, Brian.
Read his damn comic, people. It’s good.
Thanks for the recommendation of Geist Panik. Just started reading it tonight, liking it so far.
I’ve never heard the expression as “no skin off my nose.” I have always heard it as “no skin off my back.”
I’ve /only/ heard it as “no skin off my nose”. And now I’ll be researching the origins of the phrases online to see if there’s a connection, either until I find it or sometime before I finally forget.
Best explanation I’ve seen is the for back it refers to whipping but nose seems to be first so I guess that was an explanation thought up after it transferred to other body parts.
