Comic Transcripts

Teacher: So, have you found a church home yet?
Student: Yeah! I found one built on the basic principle that Mexicans are lazy.

Teacher: W-what? That’s patently offensive.
Student: We sing songs about how Mexicans are lazy, kids go to Mexicans-are-lazy camp, there’s all this ritual chanting… But now is a tough time. Recently the church splity into factions – my group thinks Zacatecanos are the laziest, but some crazy nutjobs think it’s Oaxacans. What a bunch of idiots!

Student: Those turncoat heretics are all gonna burn in Baja someday. Says so in scripture.
Teacher: Scripture? What holy text did you find that lunacy in?

Student: Webster’s dictionary. But you have to read it in a very precise order. Teacher: Well, one more book to ban from schools.

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

May 8, 2026 by David Malki !

Last year, I participated in Genius Northwest, a gaming competition inspired by the Korean gameshow The Genius and its ilk.

It’s a reality show without the cameras — a 3-day, all-inclusive weekend retreat structured around a series of challenges and puzzles, in which personalities and dealmaking matter as much as playing games.

It’s truly a remarkable thing. I came in dead last in the competition, but I still had a great time participating.

The event is held annually in the Pacific Northwest (hence the name) and applications are now open to participate in the 2026 competition!

Learn more — and apply — at GeniusNW.com.
