Corona is getting more and more grip on society, leading up to some severe measures taken by governments all over the world. These comics are not a way of denying the severity of it all, but looking at it from an introvert’s perspective, it has some positive consequences.

    Staying in

    Regarding my life story: I have two older sisters, one younger brother. I am close with my family and with my friends. I just don’t like hugging, kissing, dancing and being in the center of attention. I am married to a very extroverted woman who is my opposite when it comes to seeking attention. We complete each other.

    Perfect audience

    Introverts vs extroverts

    The idea of the comics came out of nowhere when I was trying to fall asleep. I jumped out of bed and finished the first 5 comics in the middle of the night. Enjoy, and follow my fresh social media page if you do!

    I am an animator based in the Netherlands. I also like making illustrations and comics. Actually, creating things in general is something I really like to do. Think of decorated cakes (love baking!), useful things for in the house, sowing, etc etc etc.

    This dude right here? He works as a Community Manager at Bored Panda. Has no back-story, cause his spine works just fine. He writes about himself in third-person, and in first-person about others. Fell in love with storytelling and cannot let that love go. Now, he's here to help you make your own story simply beautiful. Secretly makes cute music samples and writes stories in the dark that nobody has ever heard of before.

    I am not introvert, I am autistic. And I am so happy when I wake up morning I know my plan for whole day - stay home and not to be surprised with any unexpected trip or other husband's inspiration. Cause if I denied it, he is upset. I love to go for a walk but prefer to know few days before.

    I too am an introvert married to an extrovert. He is going crazy! Our grown son lives with us, he is like me. We love our books and computers. My poor husband is having difficulties but the spring cleaning is getting done early. We're both retired but his energy level is still quite high.

    I think our house would be entirely redecorated, painted, cleaner than it ever was, if my wife was retired. Unfortunately she still has to work. Even two jobs...well, it keeps her busy ;-)

    I absolutely love your cartoons and wholeheartedly relate! I am glad that I share my love of lockdown life with others. Obviously I would rather the virus was not in existence, but I feel like the new norm is enabling me to live my best life! Working from home, time in my garden, solo dog walks, yoga, more free time to focus on me... It's an introvert's heaven

    Not in my case. I hoped I would be doing all these things and more when they announced we would be working from home and yet... since people are staying home playing video games, the quantity of work has kind of increased (I'm working with video games, no not just playing them, it's about contents and service).

    I love these cartoons. I relate to both the introvert and the extrovert. There are times I am the life of the party and other times I love time alone, to read a book. And believe it or not, I'm not bipolar. Who knew?

    I love these! I was beginning to think there was something seriously wrong with me. I am thriving in this quarantine! And like another commenter said, I do typically enjoy world travel, theater, hanging out with loved ones, museums, etc, but I also never feel bored. I have so many interests indoors that I never have time for (mostly because the world is primarily extroverted so it makes indoor activities almost seem like a lazy, waste of a day), so I could be in quarantine for years and not run out of things to do. It's only been 2 weeks. I usually only see each individual friend about once a month at most or even once every 3 months, so I can't honestly say that I miss them. I know I miss future events that were canceled, but if we look at it honestly, I think many people are forgetting how little we truly see of each other anyways. Even extroverts on average see each individual friend maybe once a month when it comes down to it. It just feels different because it's FORCED isolation.

    I'm the kind of introvert who loves it. I love staying at home, I love that I don't have to shake hands, talk too long with random neigbors, that the city is more empty... I'm even furious when some people still party under my window or some parents just play with their children in the public space. All I care about is the Internet. People contact me via sms or chat all the time; there are moments when I hate even that, when it's too much. I really wish every space was more empty. Permanently.

    I also have my social moments. I play several team sports, work as a volunteer at a retirement home and like spending time with my close friends. And I miss those things. But I really wanted to emphasize the positive things in these sad days. I hope you still could relate to some of the comics, and that made you smile a bit 😊

    I would love to capitalize on covid-19 by selling devices that generate semi-solid force fields that are exactly two meters in diameter, but I won't, because shipping prices from Antarctica to everywhere else are INSANE.
