Learning new stuff is one of life's most gratifying experiences. And Michael, the creator of Light Roast Comics knows it. He's an American guy who currently lives in Germany and has recently set out on an artistic journey.
"I started drawing the funny comics this February," Michael told Bored Panda. "Light Roast Comics is (supposed to be) a funny and occasionally thought-provoking webcomic, and its topics are almost totally random with just a handful of recurring characters and storylines."
Everyday life has an important role in Michael's creative process. "I am usually inspired by conversations I have with friends and ideas I have while I'm out running."
"I personally don't find vulgar, profane stuff very funny, so I tend to steer clear of those kinds of subjects, sticking with good advice and some savage roasts. And any of my funny comic strips might genuinely hurt or offend someone - obviously you could take that concept to either extreme. But if people aren't having fun checking my funny drawings out, then it's all a waste of time. I usually bounce ideas I'm unsure about off of a few friends and other artists to get their vital life advice."
"As of less than a year ago, I never thought I would be drawing comics or delivering the best roasts about life, but now it's a significant part of my schedule, and I'm having a ton of fun with it," Michael concluded. "I hope that my relatively simple example might encourage more people to step out on their own creative limb and try something new."

actually it doesnt matter if its a vape or cigarette both are equally bad for u and can give u lung cancer
Regarding that he's winking at her while saying she's smoking, I guess he was about to say the old pun "you're smoking. You're smoking hot" but he didn't have a chance to do it. And actually people who are vaping are sometimes a bit too prone to talk about it a LOT :D

No. First panel is him learning that the business puts plastic flowers on their pens to prevent them from being stolen. Second panel is him getting an idea, and third panel is the diamond thief being prevented from stealing the diamond by the same plastic flower idea, since applied by the security guard, who may or may not have been made Security Guard of the month because of it.
