Leaving Springfield

 For once, not a software-testing related cartoon. Inspired by Donald Trump who threw the ball in my court with his statement about the immigrants in Springfield "eating" their pets. 

There is also a second drawing which I had submitted to the "New Yorker", but unfortunately wasn't published.

 

 

Last but not least, after Trump won the election, I felt I need to draw another one where all the pets could return to their homes as there is nothing to fear anymore. This included P'Nut the squirrel which - in real life - was less lucky. Unfortunately, it could not return home.

 

 

Bug or Feature?

"One particular day, I spent several hours arguing with a developer about a "by design" bug. I thought his resolution was more a result of laziness and apathy than a sincere design decision. Eventually, I think we both gave up and decided to go home for the night.I was walking through the parking lot trying to remember where I parked (and couldn't help but laugh when I saw an old Volkswagen Beetle (or "Bug") parked in one of the stalls. The car was mostly navy blue but had a yellow cover on the engine with a vanity plate centered on it. The vanity plate read 'FEATURE'."
