First up, Clara and I wanted to apologize for our website being on the fritz these past few days. We have contacted the service provider and were told they are aware the problem and are working to fix it. Hopefully everything is right as rain come Wednesday for our new comic. Until then, thanks for… Continue reading The system is down

Comic History: Stephen Hawking
Today’s episode is the first in a new series we’re calling “Comic History,” which depicts real events that have happened to Clara and Jeff which were simply too funny/astonishing to not share with everyone. Please be clear, these are real events that are as accurate representations of what happened as possible. Our first offering happened… Continue reading Comic History: Stephen Hawking
Time to Refocus
As you may or may not have heard, I recently decided to step back from my work with United Way to refocus my energies on finishing my Doctorate in Media Studies at the University of Western Ontario.

Well, the Freeps has answered the bell…kind of. After calling out the LFPress in last week’s comic, a reporter from the paper called this weekend to get the scoop from Clara and I on what was so wrong with their poll. Jane Sims spoke with us on Saturday and it’s safe to say this interview… Continue reading Cripz Meets the Press
Intervention: Ridiculous
Recently, the London Free Press printed a great article outlining the decision by London City Council to invest $12m to install audible cross walk buttons around the city. Unfortunately, the article was then followed up the next day with an absolutely brutal poll on the LFP’s website asking: “Spending $12M on London crosswalk traffic-light buttons… Continue reading Intervention: Ridiculous
