The comics by
The Oatmeal

We live in the age of Internet. The World Wide Web is an awfully big place to navigate your way around. In between working your way through the research and networking, spend some time on The Oatmeal (www.theoatmeal.com) because it is one website that will have you hooked to its absurd quizzes, hilarious comics and cartoons.

The brainchild of Matthew Inman, a 27-year-old web designer, The Oatmeal stays relevant to our times, making comics and cartoons and quizzes that tackle other uber-famous web networking sites such as MySpace, Twitter and Facebook. Some of its most viewed comics include 'How to suck at Facebook', 'Facebook + MySpace = Facespace' et al.

But that's not all. It even includes spoofs on the super-famous Twilight series, Avatar fever (Avatar & Aliens are the same goddamn movie'), Justin Bieber etc.

The Oatmeal is actually coming out as a book now because its popularity has been on the rise, despite it being an Internet-only project when it began roughly fourteen months ago.

Some are just plain ol' fun like a quiz on 'How many hungry weasels could your body feed' or '10 things you need to stop tweeting about'. For the sake of humour or just catching a break in between working, give The Oatmeal a read. As far as Internet projects go, this is one of the better ones, as entertaining and delightful as Texts from Last Night.
