Comic Transcripts

[[A man and a woman in a car drive past another man and woman in a different car.]]
Man: You ever look at strangers on the road and wonder where they’re off to? Like those people. They look nice. Where are they going?
Woman: Probably back to our house.
Man: Huh. Do they have keys to our house?

Woman: No. The cats are throwing a party while we’re gone.
Man: The cats don’t know how to use the doorknobs. Those people will be standing outside. Big crowd gathering on the stoop. Everyone’s wine getting warm.

Man: Cats on the inside just pawing frantically at the crack beneath the door, wondering how everything went so wrong.
Woman: Yeah, it’s not a good party.

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.
