The Tangent Side Blog

The Tangent Side

The science is always wittier on the Tangent Side. Here you'll find puzzles, games, and a hand-drawn webcomic aimed to reveal the humor that sometimes only a technical mind can appreciate. The Tangent Side comic was created by Doug Terhune (Juzek89) originally as a fun project/distraction amidst the rigors and long lectures of engineering college.

I hope no one ever tells her that there's an easier way to drink coffee.

Reminds me of Mr. Creosote, as in:

Waiter: "How are we feeling today?"

Mr. Creosote: "Better. Better get me a bucket."
