The artist has been making "Yes, But" comics since 2016. These comics are based on the idea that people often have conflicting feelings or thoughts in their lives.
Gudim sees the world in a strange and unusual way. He once said that this is a good way to fight boredom – by finding new and interesting things in everyday life.
When questioned about whether the artist includes suggestions from others, he explained that he often takes notes and might come up with a drawing idea later from those notes. "Some ideas are offered to me by close people or followers on Instagram. If the idea seems good to me, then I will gladly try to translate it into a drawing."
We've noticed that Gudim often posts real-life 'yes, but' stories shared by others on Instagram. This made us interested in how his interaction with followers affects him. The artist responded by saying that he feels enthusiastic about it. He enjoys the fact that the format has gained global recognition, and he finds many of the ideas sent to him to be creative in their absurdity. "I like that the format is reflected in real life," Gudim added.

This is called "Elephant racing". Anyone who drives long distances has seen it. The average length of a truck like this in the US is 22 meters. At a 1 Km/h differential in speed, there is a .3 meters per second speed differential. If you double the length of the truck to include a safe distance to move over, it will take somewhere near 2.5 minutes for the truck that is doing 81 Km/h to pass the slower truck. Now the average speed of a car is around 115 KPH, so you can see why "Elephant racing" causes huge backups on the freeway.
eh...could someone explain? Is it referring to air pollution from forest fires or Mexico?
The "driving to the gym by car and then biking on an machine or running on the treadmill" always gets me. At least in countries with decent road infrastructure where you have gyms every 5 kilometers.
Exercising outside also isn’t safe after dark for everyone, and some people only have free time at night

They might do it if they plan on buying a lot or buying something especially heavy - not fun to walk a long distance with oddly shaped packages or tons of bags.

Here in Spain, they usually have metal blockages near the top so people throw less trash there
I'd definitely rather have free wifi and talk to people I know then hug a random guy lol 😂
what are you doing in less than 2 hou.... oh it's probably an iPhone.
Does anyone else hate these? I feel like they simplify things to the point of absurdity which I don't enjoy.
Yeah, they really irk me. It seems like every single one of them belongs on r/im14andthisisdeep

You know what? It's possible that I don't have the brain power to see the joke. I never said people aren't allowed to enjoy it, I was just genuinely wondering if others feel the same, considering how many upvotes these articles get. Enjoy being so smart.
