Comic Transcripts

JAZZMIN: Didn’t you wear that shirt yesterday?
REGINALD: Yeah, but only for half the day. It’s still got a few hours before it hits the “dirty” threshold.

REGINALD: See, I have an elaborate calculus that determines whether clothes are still clean enough to wear. Don’t worry, it takes a lot of variables into account. This shirt is totally fine.

JAZZMIN: But yesterday, didn’t you fall into a puddle of rusty antifreeze?
REGINALD: Yeah, but then I fell into a puddle of bleach!
REGINALD: Like I said, it’s a pretty elaborate calculus.

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.
