Comic Transcripts

[[A man and his wife inspect some sort of long item. A woman approaches them.]]
Woman: Excuse me! Have either of you seen a horse around here lately?

[[The woman elaborates.]]
Woman: He took my magic skateboard, but he can’t fly it with those hooves! This surely spells chaos! I’d find cover, if I were you.

[[A wild-eyed horse flies from the right on a magic skateboard.]]
Wife: Magic…
Man: Shh, honey, that’s just Crazy Edna. Don’t make eye contact.
Horse: Mommy! I flew too high!!

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.
